[![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/gglkYMGRYlE/maxresdefault.jpg "Justice League Special Comic-Con Footage") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gglkYMGRYlE) First thoughts: Aquaman has potential. The whole trailer looks too dark and kind of “cheap”, more like a TV show than a movie. But looking forward to it, nonetheless. ---

I really want to be excited, but this looks bad. Also, Batman is the one building the Justice League? I always think of Batman as the outsider of the original group. Watching him go around like a brooding Jake and Elwood getting the band back together (and in PUBLIC!) is super jarring. ---

If you’re gonna ape Nick Fury, at least put on an eyepatch, Bruce. ---

The footage they showed was rather enjoyable, but not enough to make up for Zack Snyder’s involvement. Sucker Punch, Man of Steel, Batman v. Superman… I just don’t trust the man to make a movie. ---

I liked it - sarcastic Batman is the best Batman. ---

Superman… I just don’t trust the man to make a movie. Sucker Punch. Ugh. Batman building a team seems fine to me. He is portrayed as a general just as often as he is portrayed as a loner. Really not sure about Heavy Metal Aquaman. ---

The Flash’s costume sucks. Does everyone have to have the shiny armor outfit now? ---

I think they’re trying to overcome Aquaman’s inherent ridiculousness by making him look like a guy no-one would ever make fun of to his face. ---

I saw the trailer and thought it had a lot more promise than previous DC flicks. Mind you, I have zero attachment to the characters and the last time I saw anything about the Justice League, there was a cape-wearing talking dog involved. If my choices are between breaking canon and a mildly entertaining film, I’m going with the second door. ---

> [@Superdude](#): > > The Flash’s costume sucks. Does everyone have to have the shiny armor outfit now? God, Yes. This was my biggest takeaway too. He’s not a damn robot, quit making him look like one ---

I finally saw BvS last weekend (the ultimate edition) and while it wasn’t a great movie, I thought it was decent. I enjoyed the trailer, but Zack Snyder always makes great trailers (seriously, that should be his job), so we’ll wait and see. ---

> [@Superdude](#): > > The Flash’s costume sucks. Does everyone have to have the shiny armor outfit now? It is a costume he pieced together to hold up under extreme conditions. Not bad for a guy who has been going solo. Also, you see he is testing his outfit on the monitors in his lair. ---

They should have just given him a beard and a hook for a hand. Best underwater superhero ever is Kraken from The Umbrella Academy. He would make Aquaman cry (but you wouldn’t see the tears because he would be underwater). ---

I’m sure I’ll see it, but I’m more excited for [Wonder Woman](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lGoQhFb4NM).
