Our First Superman Trailer is Here!
The hype has been building all week and the trailer is finally here! Our first look at James Gunn’s Superman movie!
I dig it! I like almost all of the elements in this trailer and I am fully on board with this vision of Superman. I’m fully on board with everything James Gunn wants to do or would like to do. I don’t think he has ever led me astray. So bring it on!
I loved Krypto. I loved the look of Superman and pretty much all of the characters. I dig the tone. And we don’t know much of anything yet, so it definitely counts as just a teaser. We see a ton of stuff in this trailer and all of it looks good to me.
The only thing I don’t like is the reliance on the original Superman movie theme and any of that imagery. I know that everybody loves those original Christopher Reeves movies…but I don’t really care about them. And I don’t want every single new Superman adaptation to be beholden to them. I know that musical score is fantastic…but c’mon. This was a great chance to be wholly original. Ah well. I’m never going to win that argument.
Superman comes to theaters on July 11.

At this point I view the Williams theme the same way as the James Bond theme. Used in the first movie and just part of the deal vis a vis a Superman movie. And I’m ok with that. Your mileage may vary, but works for me.
Huh, that is actually a really great way to look at that theme! Thanks for the insight!
