That looks visually cool. I guess Superman isn't in this one.

Looks cool. I'm willing to give Snyder another shot at this. A bit dark for my liking but that's Snyder for you. And I don't mean tone, as in gritty, I mean visually it looks like they are in perpetual darkness, as if they live in the arctic during the winter.

I'm surprised there was no Superman hint. I guess they'll save that for a later trailer. I can't imagine they would want to keep it a secret the whole time. I'm just assuming it is a given that he's gonna make a glorious entrance at the end and save the day.

The more they reveal of this movie the less excited I get. That does not look good.

Look at how good a movie like Logan or Civil War was, and then look at this trailer, looks like utter crap in comparison. "Shall we?" "I'm rich" "Like a bat, I dig it" "Yeeaaa!!"

These are their attempts at 'lightening' the mood? They need to just stop, take a little break, start fresh with a new director. Snyder doesn't have it.

That might be its only saving grace.

At least they appear to have gone for a more 'fun' tone.

Honestly, that looks like its probably going to suck but at least might be enjoyable.

Think: 'Suicide Squad' with the suck dialed down to a more palatable '9' or so.

Bummer. Now I'm not so excited about the movie any more. Suicide Squad was not good.

That doesn't look good, which is a pretty bad sign as all the other DC movies have had great first trailers but ended up as an absolute mess. If this one can't cobble enough good bits for a 2 minute trailer then it might be on another level of suck

Or they could have learned their lesson and it wont suck?

But I wouldnt hold out hope on that one.

I think we're all just cynical because of how the rest have turned out. This looks like a regular superhero trailer.

I like the "I'm rich" line.

I liked that line as well.

Would you say that our cynicism is unjustified?

Don't like the dark visual tone of Snyder movies.

At this point Snyder is such damaged goods that you can be almost certain that this movie will not be good.

I guess I have trust issues with the latest DC movies. But I looked at the trailer and my first thought was that it looked kind of bland, and then to make it more so they pretty much washed out all of the color in the film.

There just wasn't anything there that makes me want to see it in the theatre. It feels like a movie that I'm willing to wait for on Shaw or Netflix.

For some reason, the whole I'm rich quip by Affleck just really conflicted with the dour and angry and somewhat naive and directionless Batman of BVS.

I did see Amy Adam's in the clip, so I'm making an assumption that Superman shows up at the end jumping out of his grave and yelling "Hiyaa" as he super karate chops the main villain to death.

One thing for sure that DC has going for them after BvS is lowered expectations.

I have lost hope that anything they push out is going to be epically awesome, but I still hope to be entertained.

I'm not sure if Snyder knows how to shoot in daylight. His movies can be eye candy with the style and all of that but what about some sunlight or something?

Superman is definitely in this, as confirmed by some set shots. Just what role he has is unknown.

It will probably be a predictable return to save the day sort of thing, with a brief peiod of unconvincing doubt that he's still a good guy.

Strange they would make a movie like this without trying to advance each characters story first.

Haaaave you been watching DC's films?

I even watched Suicide Squad once. There was an Australian man in it. I cant tell you why.

The trailer doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Visually rather bland except for Aquaman who admittedly looks cool, no hint of of an actual plot or a theme, or even what they're fighting. Or why.

This suggest either that they don't know what the movie is about yet, or that what it's about is such a pile of crap that the people who made the trailer thought it's best not to mention that stuff in the trailer.

I believe that's Amber Heard in her role as Mera.

All of a sudden I'm instantly interested in a stand alone aquaman film. #AmberHeard
