That actually doesn't look that bad.

Darkseid. Parademon. Apokalips.
Man, I knew there was a reason I was a Marvel fanboy over DC. I just didn't realize it was as simple as naming conventions. |

I've always been a Marvel over DC guy as well, but I seem to like DC graphic novels far better than Marvel's. Strange. I particularly like Marvel's cosmic storylines over DC's, and that very much includes Thanos over Darkseid. This applies to the movie lines to this point as well - the MCU has FAR exceeded the DCU. |

I'd say check back in a year or two, once we see what Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman and Justice League turn out to be, and we can actually compare the two on a bit more equal terms. If they turn out to be anywhere close to as good as the trailers this weekend were, we might well be talking about the two cinematic universes on relatively even footing. Time will tell. |

Outside of Ant Man, Guardians and Winter Soldier, the Marvel movies for me have been a gigantic "Meh". As you pointed out, Iron Man no longer holds up, the Thor movies aren't good, the Hulk movies have been crap, Iron Man 2 was awful, three was a little better, Captain America was sooooooo slow and boring and so on. And my dislike of the Avengers movies is well documented. I'm really surprised at the reaction to BvS but if all of the changes at WB make for even better DC films, I'm all for it. The Justice League and Suicide Squad trailers look awesome and personally, I loved Affleck as Batman, so I'm looking forward to his stand alone film. |

Sweet trailer, looking forward to the next installation. I also recently watched BvS -- thought the first half was a little disjointed, but after that, I was all in. This looks even better, although who really knows from the trailer.

Will Superman be in this, or is he still taking a break in the coffin?

I hope Green Lantern gets involved later but nothing has been said. I've heard Matt Damon would do a superheroine if Affleck assisted directing. He could be my GL or Green Arrow. |

I'm hoping he does a Superhero instead, unless Damon went all Caitlyn Jenner and I didn't know about it... Damon as Green Lantern would be pretty awesome, now that I think about it... |

A brooding, ripped, enigmatic, aloof Aquaman seems pretty ****ing perfect. They need to get as far away as possible from the absurd, useless, orange-suited third-rate banana that we all think of when we think Aquaman.
So far I like the casting, though I definitely would've been fine with whathisname from the Flash TV show being in the movie. Glad they're lightening the mood too. Too ****ing dark. If you want to do stand-alones with a darker-themed Dark Knight, that's fine, but when you expand the scope to Justice League, I'll take something a little less pessimistic and grim, please, thankyouverymuch. |

If Affleck brings in Matt Damon then **** the entire DC franchise.
