I welled up. 

I gotta admit, I near teared up at the theme... What an amazing tribute to both John Williams and Christopher Reeves. Gunn really respects what came before. :D 

I'm sure it will be a good movie, I'm not engaging with David Corenswet as Superman/Clark, I dont know what it is but people seem really hyped for the movie so I'll reserve judgement.

And yeah, to jump on the Krypto bandwagon, he looked cool! I did like this on Twitter - Zack Snyder's Krypto:

Until we see some extended scenes of him as Clark and as Superman, it's going to be hard to figure out if he's it.  Certainly no reason for judgement at this point.... I would argue that he seems promising, and I like that he tries to look different as Clark vs Superman, rather than simply just wearing glasses.  

 

Also: LOL to that image

He's already better than what the previous movies did with HC, at least now Superman and Clack look different enough that it's not slapping you in the face.  All they did before was put glasses on Henry and call it a day.  At least Gunn is changing up Corensweats look more with a different hairstyle and probably personality, more like what we got in the original with Reeves.

Solid trailer, I don't need to see another.  I just wish I could have the time to see it on the big screen, but I don't know if I'll be able to make it out do to work.

Critics Consensus

Pulling off the heroic feat of fleshing out a dynamic new world while putting its champion's big, beating heart front and center, this Superman flies high as a Man of Tomorrow grounded in the here and now.

whats this crap, looks ai generated and what is the point of the fake video tape effect 

On the other hand, the robots are practical effects - physical  humanoid robotics with character shells, the main CGI being their legs when they're moving fast. Alan Tudyk voices #4.

    • I know an idiot at work who is "Director for innovation projects" and inevitably has been tasked with following up on this whole trend of "AI and its work applicability". He recently sent out a survey on the topic, for the workforce to disclose their usage and attitudes towards AI. The survey was badly, sloppily typed out, the questions and answers (when multiple choices) were loosely correlated and, all and all, it would already be miserable in the times of MS Office Autocorrect alone. Then, I had AI responding to it all (on the open-ended questions) with beautiful, to-the-point prose after I provided it with minor but proper guidance, taking me under 10 minutes. All this to say that I am sure that if AI comes to replace someone, it will still be me, and the other idiot will still stay.
    • Man, the memories.
    • Call me when you can say, "Find all duplicate rows with duplicate email addresses and move the duplicate rows to a new sheet", and Copilot can execute that and not give you VBScript to write to do it. If anyone thinks AI isn't in its infancy and the bubble is about to burst, try to do anything meaningful in Excel with Copilot and you will realize AI hasn't even made it to kindergarten in most use cases yet.
    • I have installed all their components from store.rg-adguard.net. I encountered an unusual issue with Microsoft Edge that I installed manually. When I disable “Shadows under windows” in the Windows performance settings, the menus in Edge display sharp corners instead of rounded ones. I don't think the problem is related to a debloated version of Windows, as I experienced the same issue on a standard Windows machine in the past.
    • "AI has just arrived, how is it possible they're already losing jobs?” Huang said." Hey idiot. It's called these stupid companies spending too much on your AI ###### and having to layoff employees to cover the cost.
