I really disliked this trailer.

For one thing, I think it's dishonest for them to use all the footage from the MGM films. WB had nothing to do iwth the making of those,they just picked up the rights in the  early 90's when MGM was in deep kimchee and had to sell off their library.

I also hated that  there so few films from Warner's golden age...none of the Cagney gangster films, which really founded the genre, no Errol Flynn, little Bette Davis. And you show Kevin Costner Robin Hood but not Flynnis????

over 80% of it is from the past 25 years. Talk about disrespecting your own heritage.

They skipped over the first movie with recorded dialogue. I get why. But still.

 

and they also skipped Chuck. I liked Chuck. Chuck was a good show.

Patty, Henry...Which creative will be making a iOS Notes statement about how WB sans publicists tomorrow?

[JWR]

It's for the best, honestly. There was just too much baggage attached with Cavill as Superman. This will at least allow for James Gunn and Peter Safran to start fresh and go in a less polarizing direction. 

 

Besides, never say never to Cavill playing another DC character...

[cax16]

Really appreciate how up front Gunn has been throughout this process.

 

Feel bad for Cavill after the studio told him to announce his return only for this to happen. For me it’s always been character first over actor but I still feel for him.

Ben directing his own batman vs deathstroke film?

[cax16]

It will be interesting to see if they give Cavill another role or maybe he’ll finally join Marvel.

[excel1]

Holy fuck. 

 

1) This has to be viewed as a massive rebuttal to The Rock, no?

2) Good lord, WB. Makes up your damn minds. This is the wrong direction to go at this point in time, no doubt about it. 

3) Jacob Elordi rumors in 3, 2, 1...

Don't Worry. Cavill will land on his feet.

[John Marston]

Yep it’s a full reboot. Kind of sad but understand. Hope Cavill can get cast in Marvel

Oh I’m not worried lol, just feel a bit bad.

I'm confused here. They're saying Cavill's not Superman, but they still want him to be Superman at a later time, right?

I think It would be another role or

maybe an older Superman later on.
