We Have a Supergirl Trailer!

Dec 11

Posted by

The first trailer for the Supergirl movie came out today and it looks pretty excellent! I had to watch it on my phone since I’m at work, but I think I got the jist. Great song choice. Great character introduction. Really sets her apart from Superman.

The movie will be based on the Woman of Tomorrow mini-series by Tom King, which is phenomenal! There are some references to the comic in the trailer, like the inclusion of Krypto and Ruthye, but the trailer is a very different vibe from the tone of the comic. I trust DC to pull this off expertly. And I hope we get a lot of the pathos from the comic in the movie. It’s a good one.

Supergirl comes to theaters on June 26.

One Last Look at Superman

Jun 14

Posted by

No comic book reviews this week because I had to go out of town for a bit and just didn’t have time. So instead, how about we watch the final Superman trailer? I normally don’t watch trailers this close to the actual release of the film, but…it’s Superman! Aren’t we all excited for this movie?

Trailer looks good. Movie still looks good. I’ll see it at the first showing my work schedule will allow. I’m really liking the sense of movement when it comes to the flying and the action. It feels like James Gunn is really trying for something new in terms of superhero presentation, like he’s really going to take the viewer on a literal ride as Superman does his thing. That should be neat to witness in its full scope!

Superman comes out on July 11.

Brace Yourselves for a Superman Trailer!

May 14

Posted by

We knew this Superman trailer was coming today, but I was not prepared for just how much juice is in this trailer — without really giving anything away. We still don’t know the overall story or how all these various elements connect or what. We just got a big, juicy, meaty trailer full of all sorts of goodness!

Man, so much going on. Superman. Clark. Lois. Ma and Pa Kent. Krypto. Villains. Lex Luthor. War. Monsters. Justice Gang. Green Lantern. Just so much stuff! Metamorpho! And I think my favorite part is when that ordinary dude climbs down into the crater and helps Superman to his feet. I loved that little bit!

This movie looks amazing and I can’t wait to watch! James Gunn forever!

Superman comes to theaters on July 11.

New Season of Peacemaker is Gonna be Sweet

May 12

Posted by

Late last week, we got the first look of the second season of Peacemaker, and it looks super sweet. It should go without saying that the first season of Peacemaker was phenomenal television. Loved every second of that show. So you best believe I can’t wait for season 2.

And season 2 looks great! I’m not some big continuity wonk. It doesn’t matter to me that season 1 was part of the previous DC movieverse, and season 2 will be part of the new movieverse. It’s all just Peacemaker to me. And I can’t wait to see these loveable losers get up to some new hilarious and heartwarming mischief.

Peacemaker returns to HBO on Aug. 21.

Our First Look at TV’s Green Lanterns

Feb 28

Posted by

Yesterday, James Gunn shared our first look at Hal Jordan and John Stewart from the upcoming Lanterns TV show. And I think they look great! Kyle Chandler looks awesome as Hal, and Aaron Pierre is a wild kind of intense.

I am fully on board with this being a more grounded show. We saw what a CGI heavy Green Lantern was like on the big screen. So I’m fine with making a grounded, Earth-based detective show in which the main characters also wield these power rings, and occasionally go into space. There’s definitely a way to balance it all, and my faith in James Gunn remains unwavering, even though I know he’s not making Lanterns.

I like this look! And we better get a crossover with Guy Gardner at some point during the first season, is all I gotta say.
