Superman is the antithesis of the saying "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely". He's got the power of a god, but he is the most human of us, raised by salt of the earth Americans, he does the right things for the right reasons. He's heroism personified.

The most revolutionary thing about it all was the fact that the trailer was in fact a trailer, the past DC movies gave you the entire movie in the trailer, they basically produced those rather than movies, I wanna walk away from a trailer wanting more not feeling as if I watched the entire movie., this was a good example.

That child crying out for Superman in the midst of a battlefield was everything to me man and told me all I needed to know about how Gunn was handling this character. He gets it. THIS is how Superman is meant to be portrayed: as a symbol of hope. I really like Henry Cavill and I enjoyed Man of Steel, but we never got to see them lean into the “boy scout” side of Superman, which is who he truly is at heart. He’s a good person that was raised on kindness and old fashioned values. He protects those who can’t protect themselves. It’s refreshing to see a Superman that actually smiles again instead of frowning all the time. The world needs a feel good Superman movie now more than ever. I’m looking forward to this.
THIS! So many people in this comment section have no idea of the character that Superman as a whole represents, you do though, thank you for saying this man, it’s facts and more must know
@giga_chad9 For sure man. I’ve been a comic book fan for my entire life. I’ve always found them to be an escape from reality, even if just for a little while. So staying true to the source material is something that I believe is of the utmost importance when making an adaptation of anything, and Superman is no exception. What I’ve seen so far looks promising, but let’s hope that James Gunn remains dedicated to representing these characters and what they stand for correctly.
I really think they were heading the way of the boyscout Superman at the end of the Justice League movie. The scene with him and the Flash was refreshing. Also, the cut scene at the end of Black Adam, where Supes shows up in his bright red and yellow costume and he has that little hint of a smile, I believe was a lean in towards Supes being more in line with his comic book counterpart. I know it wasn't as boyscoutish as Christopher Reeve, but I really think they were trying to lean towards that. Just this ol' boys opinion.
@@mitchellfoster4025 Yeah I think that’s the direction they were headed. But it’s just a shame that it took them that long to get there with Cavill’s version. But I really like what I see so far with Corenswet, visually he looks like a mix of Tom Welling and Henry Cavill.
"I totally get your point, but let’s not throw shade at Henry Cavill. The guy’s more than just a pretty face-he’s a seriously talented actor. From his early days as the son of the Count of Monte Cristo, to playing Superman, and even crushing it as Geralt in The Witcher, he’s proven he’s got range. Oh, and don’t forget his awesome role in Mission: Impossible - Fallout! On top of all that, he’s a huge nerd and a gamer-just like a lot of us. He’s real, down-to-earth, and brings a ton of passion to everything he does. He definitely deserves more respect than just being the subject of criticism... And honestly, this new Superman looks amazing! It’s totally bringing back those nostalgic childhood vibes, right? Henry Cavill, though, has also been a great example of masculinity. He’s kind to his fans, and the way he carries himself makes us men feel good about being men."
The movie looks promising, but the actor playing Superman is not as good-looking as Christopher Reeve, Brandon Routh, or Henry Cavill. He’s by no means unattractive, just not as above average as the former Supermen, including Dean Cain and Tyler Hoechlin. Maybe that’s what they’re going for.

In MoS he was literally Superman for like a few weeks. It was the first fight he ever fought. Of course, things would be destroyed and people will die when two powerful beings were fighting each other.
@AdeodatusX that isn't exactly a surprise, given that Snyder, like most Ayn Rand fanatics, is a true believer in Great Man Theory - which was perhaps most succinctly articulated by the Green Goblin in Sam Raimi's first Spider-Man film: "There are eight million people in [New York City], and those teeming masses exist for the sole purpose of lifting the few exceptional people onto their shoulders." Such an elitist mentality/ideology is if anything _more_ conservative than a more conscientious alternative; given that social hierarchy, and the valuing of certain lives over others, is what conservatism fundamentally seeks to conserve. 😒 If you didn't care about "collateral damage" during Bush's invasion of Iraq, why would you care more about it here, in a work of fiction?
@@flappytrap1238 ''Of course, things would be destroyed and people will die when two powerful beings were fighting each other.'' That philosophy is evil and doesn't represent Superman at all. You're justifying innocent people dying for the sake of a better world? What if that innocent person is you? That doesn't even qualify as a hero, but more a anti hero which Superman isn't. The Bible says ''honor all'' The Bible says ''Do unto others as you would like to be done unto you'' The Bible says ''do not murder''. The Bible says '' Love thy neighbor as thyself''. DCEU/Snyder's Superman was a demonic character that went against Biblical values.
i've been watching reactions to the trailer all day, and have seen grown ass men eyes start to water at the music cue. And here is knowles sitting there like a mannequin. lol.. "we won" indeed.
Eh idk I do think there is a superhero fatigue. But Superman is like the most popular comic book character there is[next to Spiderman/Batman/Wonder Woman], so of course if its a Superman film its going to sell, if its a well made movie, then its going to sell even more. That doesn't mean there isn't a super hero fatigue, though.
@@lilsuzec I wouldn't say lousy, but enough not as good as Reeves. But either way, the joke about clark kent is about how bad the disguise is. I mean..a comb over and glasses...and his identity is hidden? It's all lousy...lol
Explain how you win pop culture here with this movie about Superman? This is a character that stands for hope in the face of struggle. He helps innocent people regardless of race, how they identify themselves, or their sexuality. He faces off against tyrannical oppressive forces and his main antagonist is an egotistical, cold and cruel republican 1 percenter businessman. All of this written and directed by a hugely successful liberal. So I understand confusion is a pretty common state of being for you lot but I just wanted to clarify things here.
Wow - the Marxist trolls are here already, and marching in lock-step...... here we go...Superman fighting a Republican... cold and cruel.... a 1 percenter businessman. You are slipping in a bit of anti-Republican propaganda there, you just can't help yourself. Is that your "narrative"? Also a bit of the deviant crap.... regardless of "s*xuality" and "indentity". You are so indoctrinated. Try to enjoy the film instead of using it to push pet political peeves. That has been the whole problem with the Left, you need to learn to enjoy life as it really is.
When I was 12, my father took me to see the original Superman film. We were both big fans. I am 58 now. This trailer made me feel like I was 12 again and I wish my father was still here to feel that with me. This, looks incredible.
I share your story 100%. Those of us who got to see it in 78 with our Dads are pretty darn blessed. I saw it in the theater with my adult son a few years back and it choked me up.
Thanks for sharing. Sounds like a timeless, cherished memory. Must feel great to experience all those sensations all over again. Enjoy man. Hope this movie delivers so it can be endlessly re-watched until my time is up here.
I liked that comment. I think this scene was filmed in Svalbard, Norway (according to IMDB), and the Planet Hoth scenes were also filmed in Norway on Hardangarjokull glacier.
As a lifelong Superman fan, I was so happy they were going with the lighter and hopeful tone which I think makes the character. Not to mention they're taking inspiration from the Christopher Reeve films which I love. Here's hoping it's good!
Conservatives complaining about liberal characters being portrayed as liberal is hilarious.🤣 These people are so up their "a**" about their political ideology, they see anti-conservative rhetoric when there is none. The Martha-verse was not criticized for being too conservative, it was criticized to be devoid of any o the soul and spilt of Superman, Batman and the entire DCU. This guy after seeing a Superman trailer... "we won!". my god these people have lost it. Superman looks like Superman... aka he embodies liberal ideals like he always has. but he sees it as conservative?
Superman is not "the American hero." Hes a global hero and an immigrant. Hes literally the personification of hope for all mankind. Thats why hes the goat 🐐
The irony of this dude commentating about Superman when Superman’s values would not align with anything that he says is funny. Dude is really just saying whatever and people eat it up apparently. This guys’ fans must be too dumb to see that he is actually taking advantage of them.
As an Englishman, I’m so happy to finally see Superman once again represent truth, justice and the AMERICAN way! 🇺🇸 this looks old fashioned in the best sort of way!
It's kind of hilarious having Michael "react" to something he's so not into, and somehow turns it into "We Won!" 😂 Move over, film critics! It's Michael "I don't know what Henry Cavill looks like" Knowles, ladies and gents! ❤
I'm 69 years old and Superman has always been my favorite super hero. I lost my dog this past Sunday, and crypto looks like her. The movie looks very promising.
It's kind of revealing that this guy equates devaluing human life and cynicism of the Snyderverse with conservatism. I'm eager to see the Man of Tomorrow be a beacon of hope once again.
The Snyder Superman movie was criticized because Superman committed genocide by killing the only remaining Kryptonians and Kryptonian embryos for no clear reason. And for other insane writing decisions.
How was Zack Snyder's Superman the most conservative??! Also, he wasn't hated for being more conservative. Personally, it was just not a hopeful and good Superman movie. Snyder's Superman movie had a problem making Superman seem like an outsider on Earth. Yes, Superman is an alien, but him growing up on the Kent farm and being raised by humans made Earth his home, no matter how different he was. Snyder's Superman was not good because he seemed like a total outsider, and identified as more of a Kryptonian than an earthling. Now the consensus of the hate for the movie is no way because it's "more conservative" its because it was a poorly written Superman film and Superman himself was seen as dark and gritty when Superman is supposed to be the light in the dark. It would have worked way better for Supergirl, who is supposed to feel like an outsider since she grew up on Krypton. I've always loved the line from the show Lois and Clark, where Superman says something like "Superman is what I can do, Clark is who I am" and to me, that is Superman's character.
Facts. Snyder Superman was hated because they tried to give Superman Batman energy and it just felt stiff and awkward and less bad ass. Superman is supposed to be a normal American guy, not a guy with a god complex
The fact that Michael Knowles has o politicized this Superman trailer in any way shape and form he can only underlines how he is a bad faith actor, een provacateur who makes everything political and makes everything about us against them. It's sad that in this day of age people like that gather so much attention and followers.
I’ve been madly in love with Superman since I was about 4 years old. Not simply for his power, but for who he is morally and emotionally. This movie looks like it’s going back to the roots of who he is. Bright, hopeful, and kind. I’m ready to go jump up and down in my seat and- maybe- bawl my eyes out.
5:38 Lmfao really that’s all this dude has to say about the movie. who is this guy? Zero substantive commentary, admits he knows nothing about comic books, says he won’t watch it, goes straight to bitching about politics? Funny.
Not everybody is still into kid's comics - I loved comics for years, also liked sci-fi books, people thought that was a weird kind of thing. The guy, Michael, gave a casual look at a movie, as he said he would, because he is not into Superman as an adult. Normal people are just relieved to not have a trany Superman - say no more....lol. I hope the movie fulfills your longings. Donald Trump is my real life Superman - I'll go with that hope. Regards.
Superman and Lois also had a very good portrayal of both Clark and Superman in Tyler Hoechlin. I hope the new guy is as skilled as he was in portraying a capable father and hero.
Nope, everything he creates is a glorified fart joke, dude is a teenage edgelord parading as an artist. This may be the exception but it’s screaming if the force awakens, all spectacle no substance.
I think it’s very very funny that conservatives have gaslit themselves into thinking Superman being cast as a buff white dude and Lois Lane being a pretty woman are somehow huge culture war wins for them. This is quite literally how every interpretation of Superman for the last 50 years has been. Every. Single. One. Why are yall shadow boxing yourselves?
What is funny is how bad AI is in pretending to be human with brainless responses given how many movies that had very old and and repeated backstories that got morphed to fit the current warped understanding of what is good and desired by "we the people". Your statement lacks any forethought or intelligence, but that my friend is par for the course that is slowly fading away.
Loving how the comment section gets the character. Everywhere I'm going people are chanting Henry's name as the true Superman and that he was the best. He was good, but his character wasn't good. It was too focused on big storylines and politics. This one is just focused on him as a person and you can see that from the trailer: he gets beaten up, he has a normal job, he's in love, he saves children, people hate him but he still chooses to love humanity. I cannot ask for anything more. So excited for this film and to let my filmmaking nerd out.
Watches perhaps one of the greatest superhero movie trailers ever... then immediately launches into politicization of it and starts attacking people who don't match up to his "profile of greatness". Congratulations, you just missed the point of everything. You should stick with Homelander. Superman clearly isn't for you.
You’re an idiot and you’re too immature to understand how business works. Gunn came in after Henry was let go, but you’ll never be able to piece that together
@ smh! The Snyder cut is by far the most popular version and sometimes the enemy needs to die instead allowing him to run around killing more and more people.
Henry Carvil and Christopher Reeves the best two Supermans ever !! This guy is a joke ,look like something u show on tv not at the movies and then u cancel it after first season lol
Be happy we were spared JJ Abrams Black Superman. It's not an alternate Earth Superman like Calvin Ellis or Val Zod. Nope, it was gonna be a Black Clark Kent/Kal-EL
I live in Cleveland and wandered around all summer looking for Superman Easter eggs. Now I'm sitting here watching the trailer looking for Cleveland Easter eggs. The scene where the skyscraper is falling over the bridge I paused it. You can see downtown on the left, The Flats and all the bridges were left completely untouched and then in the distance you can see the east side completely covered up by CGI with a shining beautiful city. It struck me in a way I didn't expect. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster grew up on the east side. It's where they came up with the idea of Superman, back when Cleveland was one of the fastest growing cities in the world and it managed to inspire that image of Metropolis. Then bad policy, corruption, riots and crime gutted the city like a fish and we never recovered. My dad also grew up on the Eastside when it went bad. He had a rough go of it but managed to break free of the generational weight of poverty and got us out. Now I'm back here because I fumbled the catch. I can actually see where my apartment is through the CGI. It's very surreal and emotional in a way I didn't expect. I'm glad they brought it home. It feels like a homage... Or maybe a funeral. I just know it makes me want things to be better.
@utubecustomer0099805 thanks. He definitely seemed to lean into the look of Cleveland and embrace it. A lot of movies are shot here and they always try to mask it and make it look like New York or elsewhere. But he's got Hawkgirl circling Tower City, The Flats, Public Square all front and center. It's refreshing for a local. The scene where he's floating with Lois was shot in The Arcade. It was built in the late 1800s and was one of the first indoor shopping centers in the country and made us a world travel destination. It would have been in its heyday when Shuster and Siegel were growing up. If you pause the scene with the falling tower, the skyscrapers way in the distance on the left are probably placed about where the Cleveland Clinic is. Beyond that is East Cleveland where my dad was raised. Single mom with three boys living with grandparents in a two bedroom house in a blue collar neighborhood. It's so bad there now, we went back once so he could get a little closure. Most of his block was burned down. Looks like a war zone. He cried. If you want to see what it looks like now Roca News just did a little expose on it, but The Serial Podcast really digs into the rampant corruption. A friend of mine lives over there and told me he saw police finally running patrols and stopping cars for the first time in years. A couple weeks later there was a news story that a bunch of cops were running a robbery gang, pulling people over, taking all their stuff and then leaving. It's just so sad.
When I saw Krypto saving Superman, that didn it for me. I'll repeat what a lot of people are saying, "He's back! He's finally back!" The emotional reaction people are having is because we're hungry for hope. That's what Superman is.
It's amazing how much you guys at Daily Wire follow pop culture and remains totally clueless. You make a movie trailer out to be political... It's a freaking movie, Michael.
@adrianjuarez1162 yeah it's kind of sad to see anything through any type of political lens. I just want a movie that just doesn't suck. However with AI anybody can make their Superman movie anyway they want it.
Some people have tried to crap on the Superman film because of the dog, but I think the dog makes it more kid-friendly and has a character for children to root for and enjoy. Most of the trailer looks great!!! I just think they seem to be trying to introduce between 8 and 30 new characters in one film and their underdeveloped back stories and character growth could take away from the most important story which is Superman. I REALLY hope it turns out to be an awesome film!
This seems to be a homage to Christopher Reeve Superman. It also appears to have the justice league characters peppered throughout the trailer. James Gunn didn’t just have a me too type scandal, but his was about wanting to sleep with children. He was posting on Twitter comments on how he finds little girls, but had like 20 posts, and he claimed they were jokes, edgy jokes. So everyone was like oh edgy jokes about little girls, sexual innuendoes what he’d like to do. Marvel fired him, that night he goes to a party like a Diddy party, but him and all his friends dressed up as little kids and had sex. The same week he deleted all his tweets, got fired, he decided to go to a party where he dressed like a five year old boy and his friends also dressed like five year olds. Take that into consideration when you decide to see this movie.
James Gunn's Guardians of the galaxy has been one of the most based movie franchise that came out of Disney. So I'm looking forward for this one. My only gripe is, there seems to be a lot going on for it's first go.
Man of Steel and BvS both completely disrespected the character of Superman. They literally just took what was popular at the time and made into a movie. And it just so happens that those comic writers at the time hated Superman. Most of Hollywood these days hates the character of Superman because of what he stands for. He is a symbol of hope that represents old fashioned Christian/American values. All Star Superman and Superman vs the Elite both portray what Superman is about extremely well. Too say that the Synder version was conservative is an extremely bad take as it was actually born from a leftist view of Superman as a person who just uses violence in every measure. That isn’t the Superman and the Superman that represents the old fashioned conservative Superman is what Gunn seems to be making. Don’t get me wrong Synder makes some good content, but Superman and the DCEU just were not among them.
Standards for moies in 2024: - The proragonist isn't evil - The antagonist IS evil - The love interest isn't ugly - No trannies How sad is it that this has become a win.

@@alexvesper7820 Hmm, well technically yes, but the version of Lex that's in modern pop culture I would argue wasn't really formalized until the Donner films at the earliest and John Byrne's run at the latest; so, we're really looking at a period of 1978-1986. Whether or not he is directly inspired I can't say for sure, but there's definitely elements of Trump alongside various other billionaires that can be seen in him.
@chromeqs before 2015-ish Trump was both a Democrat and an apolitical figure who most people had a positive opinion of if they had any at all. He would not become the devil incarnate until he had the gall to win an election without a D next to his name. The only variants of Lex who have direct descent from Trump are post-2016, which is about the time that every single fictional villain started taking on Trump aspects.

I really like Henry Cavill and I enjoyed Man of Steel, but we never got to see them lean into the “boy scout” side of Superman, which is who he truly is at heart. He’s a good person that was raised on kindness and old fashioned values. He protects those who can’t protect themselves. It’s refreshing to see a Superman that actually smiles again instead of frowning all the time. The world needs a feel good Superman movie now more than ever. I’m looking forward to this.
THIS! So many people in this comment section have no idea of the character that Superman as a whole represents, you do though, thank you for saying this man, it’s facts and more must know
@giga_chad9 For sure man. I’ve been a comic book fan for my entire life. I’ve always found them to be an escape from reality, even if just for a little while. So staying true to the source material is something that I believe is of the utmost importance when making an adaptation of anything, and Superman is no exception. What I’ve seen so far looks promising, but let’s hope that James Gunn remains dedicated to representing these characters and what they stand for correctly.
Agreed
I really think they were heading the way of the boyscout Superman at the end of the Justice League movie. The scene with him and the Flash was refreshing. Also, the cut scene at the end of Black Adam, where Supes shows up in his bright red and yellow costume and he has that little hint of a smile, I believe was a lean in towards Supes being more in line with his comic book counterpart. I know it wasn't as boyscoutish as Christopher Reeve, but I really think they were trying to lean towards that. Just this ol' boys opinion.
@@mitchellfoster4025 Yeah I think that’s the direction they were headed. But it’s just a shame that it took them that long to get there with Cavill’s version. But I really like what I see so far with Corenswet, visually he looks like a mix of Tom Welling and Henry Cavill.
Top Gun: Maverick was the defining moment in the pop-culture shift back towards sanity.
So Top Gun Maverick was inspiration for how they shot some of the flying action scenes. Which that has me super hyped.
very dumb statment
Absolutely agree!
When was that? We are as insane as ever. This clown just made the Superman trailer about culture war.
100 per cent. Tom Cruise gets it, he understands where the society is.
"I totally get your point, but let’s not throw shade at Henry Cavill. The guy’s more than just a pretty face-he’s a seriously talented actor. From his early days as the son of the Count of Monte Cristo, to playing Superman, and even crushing it as Geralt in The Witcher, he’s proven he’s got range. Oh, and don’t forget his awesome role in Mission: Impossible - Fallout! On top of all that, he’s a huge nerd and a gamer-just like a lot of us. He’s real, down-to-earth, and brings a ton of passion to everything he does. He definitely deserves more respect than just being the subject of criticism... And honestly, this new Superman looks amazing! It’s totally bringing back those nostalgic childhood vibes, right? Henry Cavill, though, has also been a great example of masculinity. He’s kind to his fans, and the way he carries himself makes us men feel good about being men."
agree!
Completely agree!
The movie looks promising, but the actor playing Superman is not as good-looking as Christopher Reeve, Brandon Routh, or Henry Cavill. He’s by no means unattractive, just not as above average as the former Supermen, including Dean Cain and Tyler Hoechlin. Maybe that’s what they’re going for.
Agreed...the actor looks thin and frail...even the actor for Superman's main adversity...they look young and I muscular.
He was also in Stardust.
I bet michael would love digging into philosophy side of superman and how he was created as a counter argument to Nietchse

Zack snyders superman wasn't criticized for being conservative lol. It's because he didn't care for civilian life and was careless when fighting.
In MoS he was literally Superman for like a few weeks. It was the first fight he ever fought. Of course, things would be destroyed and people will die when two powerful beings were fighting each other.
@AdeodatusX that isn't exactly a surprise, given that Snyder, like most Ayn Rand fanatics, is a true believer in Great Man Theory - which was perhaps most succinctly articulated by the Green Goblin in Sam Raimi's first Spider-Man film:
"There are eight million people in [New York City], and those teeming masses exist for the sole purpose of lifting the few exceptional people onto their shoulders."
Such an elitist mentality/ideology is if anything _more_ conservative than a more conscientious alternative; given that social hierarchy, and the valuing of certain lives over others, is what conservatism fundamentally seeks to conserve. 😒
If you didn't care about "collateral damage" during Bush's invasion of Iraq, why would you care more about it here, in a work of fiction?

''Of course, things would be destroyed and people will die when two powerful beings were fighting each other.''
That philosophy is evil and doesn't represent Superman at all. You're justifying innocent people dying for the sake of a better world? What if that innocent person is you? That doesn't even qualify as a hero, but more a anti hero which Superman isn't.
The Bible says ''honor all'' The Bible says ''Do unto others as you would like to be done unto you'' The Bible says ''do not murder''. The Bible says '' Love thy neighbor as thyself''. DCEU/Snyder's Superman was a demonic character that went against Biblical values.

Explain how you win pop culture here with this movie about Superman? This is a character that stands for hope in the face of struggle. He helps innocent people regardless of race, how they identify themselves, or their sexuality. He faces off against tyrannical oppressive forces and his main antagonist is an egotistical, cold and cruel republican 1 percenter businessman. All of this written and directed by a hugely successful liberal. So I understand confusion is a pretty common state of being for you lot but I just wanted to clarify things here.
And the biggest confusion of all.... Superman isn't an American citizen.
Wow - the Marxist trolls are here already, and marching in lock-step...... here we go...Superman fighting a Republican... cold and cruel.... a 1 percenter businessman.
You are slipping in a bit of anti-Republican propaganda there, you just can't help yourself. Is that your "narrative"?
Also a bit of the deviant crap.... regardless of "s*xuality" and "indentity". You are so indoctrinated.

I liked that comment. I think this scene was filmed in Svalbard, Norway (according to IMDB), and the Planet Hoth scenes were also filmed in Norway on Hardangarjokull glacier.
As a lifelong Superman fan, I was so happy they were going with the lighter and hopeful tone which I think makes the character. Not to mention they're taking inspiration from the Christopher Reeve films which I love. Here's hoping it's good!
The man of steel Henry Cavill Superman is still the best in my opinion!
Conservatives complaining about liberal characters being portrayed as liberal is hilarious.🤣
These people are so up their "a**" about their political ideology, they see anti-conservative rhetoric when there is none. The Martha-verse was not criticized for being too conservative, it was criticized to be devoid of any o the soul and spilt of Superman, Batman and the entire DCU.

Superman is the best superhero. His whole character is about self control when you have power, not the fight to attain power.
But is dangerous for humanity.
(BTW i cried during this trailer, it was perfect and so nostalgic)
The Snyder Superman movie was criticized because Superman committed genocide by killing the only remaining Kryptonians and Kryptonian embryos for no clear reason. And for other insane writing decisions.
You didn't pay attention to the movie. Zod was going to sacrifice humans to bring back Krypton, an already dead world.
How was Zack Snyder's Superman the most conservative??! Also, he wasn't hated for being more conservative. Personally, it was just not a hopeful and good Superman movie. Snyder's Superman movie had a problem making Superman seem like an outsider on Earth. Yes, Superman is an alien, but him growing up on the Kent farm and being raised by humans made Earth his home, no matter how different he was. Snyder's Superman was not good because he seemed like a total outsider, and identified as more of a Kryptonian than an earthling. Now the consensus of the hate for the movie is no way because it's "more conservative" its because it was a poorly written Superman film and Superman himself was seen as dark and gritty when Superman is supposed to be the light in the dark. It would have worked way better for Supergirl, who is supposed to feel like an outsider since she grew up on Krypton. I've always loved the line from the show Lois and Clark, where Superman says something like "Superman is what I can do, Clark is who I am" and to me, that is Superman's character.
Facts. Snyder Superman was hated because they tried to give Superman Batman energy and it just felt stiff and awkward and less bad ass. Superman is supposed to be a normal American guy, not a guy with a god complex
The fact that Michael Knowles has o politicized this Superman trailer in any way shape and form he can only underlines how he is a bad faith actor, een provacateur who makes everything political and makes everything about us against them. It's sad that in this day of age people like that gather so much attention and followers.

I’ve been madly in love with Superman since I was about 4 years old. Not simply for his power, but for who he is morally and emotionally.

I think it’s very very funny that conservatives have gaslit themselves into thinking Superman being cast as a buff white dude and Lois Lane being a pretty woman are somehow huge culture war wins for them. This is quite literally how every interpretation of Superman for the last 50 years has been. Every. Single. One.

Loving how the comment section gets the character. Everywhere I'm going people are chanting Henry's name as the true Superman and that he was the best. He was good, but his character wasn't good. It was too focused on big storylines and politics. This one is just focused on him as a person and you can see that from the trailer: he gets beaten up, he has a normal job, he's in love, he saves children, people hate him but he still chooses to love humanity. I cannot ask for anything more. So excited for this film and to let my filmmaking nerd out.
Watches perhaps one of the greatest superhero movie trailers ever... then immediately launches into politicization of it and starts attacking people who don't match up to his "profile of greatness".

Scenes filmed in Cleveland last summer, Superman’s home!
"Who is Henry Caville?"
"He's the perfect man."
Me: ... fair enough.
You don't make sense
I live in Cleveland and wandered around all summer looking for Superman Easter eggs. Now I'm sitting here watching the trailer looking for Cleveland Easter eggs. The scene where the skyscraper is falling over the bridge I paused it. You can see downtown on the left, The Flats and all the bridges were left completely untouched and then in the distance you can see the east side completely covered up by CGI with a shining beautiful city.
It struck me in a way I didn't expect. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster grew up on the east side. It's where they came up with the idea of Superman, back when Cleveland was one of the fastest growing cities in the world and it managed to inspire that image of Metropolis. Then bad policy, corruption, riots and crime gutted the city like a fish and we never recovered.
My dad also grew up on the Eastside when it went bad. He had a rough go of it but managed to break free of the generational weight of poverty and got us out. Now I'm back here because I fumbled the catch. I can actually see where my apartment is through the CGI. It's very surreal and emotional in a way I didn't expect. I'm glad they brought it home. It feels like a homage... Or maybe a funeral. I just know it makes me want things to be better.
You're reply is a story in itself. Well done. I wonder if J. Gunn was conscience of all these details during production. Hope so.
@utubecustomer0099805 thanks. He definitely seemed to lean into the look of Cleveland and embrace it. A lot of movies are shot here and they always try to mask it and make it look like New York or elsewhere. But he's got Hawkgirl circling Tower City, The Flats, Public Square all front and center. It's refreshing for a local. The scene where he's floating with Lois was shot in The Arcade. It was built in the late 1800s and was one of the first indoor shopping centers in the country and made us a world travel destination. It would have been in its heyday when Shuster and Siegel were growing up.
If you pause the scene with the falling tower, the skyscrapers way in the distance on the left are probably placed about where the Cleveland Clinic is. Beyond that is East Cleveland where my dad was raised. Single mom with three boys living with grandparents in a two bedroom house in a blue collar neighborhood. It's so bad there now, we went back once so he could get a little closure. Most of his block was burned down. Looks like a war zone. He cried. If you want to see what it looks like now Roca News just did a little expose on it, but The Serial Podcast really digs into the rampant corruption. A friend of mine lives over there and told me he saw police finally running patrols and stopping cars for the first time in years. A couple weeks later there was a news story that a bunch of cops were running a robbery gang, pulling people over, taking all their stuff and then leaving. It's just so sad.
“I have no means to watch it but it’s great”
If good movies don’t make money then good movies won’t happen anymore.
When I saw Krypto saving Superman, that didn it for me. I'll repeat what a lot of people are saying, "He's back! He's finally back!" The emotional reaction people are having is because we're hungry for hope. That's what Superman is.

Some people have tried to crap on the Superman film because of the dog, but I think the dog makes it more kid-friendly and has a character for children to root for and enjoy. Most of the trailer looks great!!! I just think they seem to be trying to introduce between 8 and 30 new characters in one film and their underdeveloped back stories and character growth could take away from the most important story which is Superman. I REALLY hope it turns out to be an awesome film!
Excellent trailer… reminds me of the old school super hero films. I do wish it were Henry Cavill, though…
Same.
This seems to be a homage to Christopher Reeve Superman. It also appears to have the justice league characters peppered throughout the trailer.
James Gunn didn’t just have a me too type scandal, but his was about wanting to sleep with children. He was posting on Twitter comments on how he finds little girls, but had like 20 posts, and he claimed they were jokes, edgy jokes. So everyone was like oh edgy jokes about little girls,
sexual innuendoes what he’d like to do. Marvel fired him, that night he goes to a party like a Diddy party, but him and all his friends dressed up as little kids and had sex. The same week he deleted all his tweets, got fired, he decided to go to a party where he dressed like a five year old boy and his friends also dressed like five year olds. Take that into consideration when you decide to see this movie.

This comment should be pinned.
James Gunn's Guardians of the galaxy has been one of the most based movie franchise that came out of Disney. So I'm looking forward for this one. My only gripe is, there seems to be a lot going on for it's first go.
Lol wut
if a superman movie is too hard for you to follow, you might be better off staying at home for this one
@@arthurchushoe looks like op is pointing out a valid concern of having too many villains and plot points in one movie.
@@kathryncook7193 not at all lmao. If you guys are unable to follow a comic book movie then movies might not be for you.
it must be tough living as this guy having to always walk on eggshells.
Comic book geeks are more conservative than political conservatives. You would be shocked.
Agree
Knowles: "I don't know what Henry Cavill looks like".
The Producer: "He's the perfect man"
imagine the shit that goes on in that studio when the cameras cut lmao
What Kate Bosworth/Lois Lane says in SuperMan Returns is true in real life:
"Superman's mere exsistence inspires us to be better people".
Superman is the greatest and most iconic superhero of all time. Batman does not even come close
Man of Steel and BvS both completely disrespected the character of Superman. They literally just took what was popular at the time and made into a movie. And it just so happens that those comic writers at the time hated Superman. Most of Hollywood these days hates the character of Superman because of what he stands for. He is a symbol of hope that represents old fashioned Christian/American values. All Star Superman and Superman vs the Elite both portray what Superman is about extremely well. Too say that the Synder version was conservative is an extremely bad take as it was actually born from a leftist view of Superman as a person who just uses violence in every measure. That isn’t the Superman and the Superman that represents the old fashioned conservative Superman is what Gunn seems to be making. Don’t get me wrong Synder makes some good content, but Superman and the DCEU just were not among them.
The lack of reaction tells me he'd watch the trailer already
LOL "They're on HOTH!" hahaha Wrong franchise but funny line man.
Listening to hacks talk about movies is exhausting.
for real. although knowles gay student film is still hilarious. homeboy is definitely in the closet
This world needs SUPERMAN
Standards for moies in 2024:
- The proragonist isn't evil
- The antagonist IS evil
- The love interest isn't ugly
- No trannies
How sad is it that this has become a win.
I agree top gun maverick and Mario are the only movies I’ve seen In theaters without any bullcrap in it
They were never criticised for being conservative 😂
Kal El isn't conservative. he's more liberal. In fact, he gives up his "American" citizenship and becomes a nomad to better protect and defend the world. Stop making things political when they aren't. Just enjoy the trailer and movie
Also Lex Luthor (his arch foe) is literally based off of Trump.
@@DravenG96 Lex Luthor was created in 1940. Donald Trump was born in 1946.
@@alexvesper7820 Hmm, well technically yes, but the version of Lex that's in modern pop culture I would argue wasn't really formalized until the Donner films at the earliest and John Byrne's run at the latest; so, we're really looking at a period of 1978-1986. Whether or not he is directly inspired I can't say for sure, but there's definitely elements of Trump alongside various other billionaires that can be seen in him.
@chromeqs before 2015-ish Trump was both a Democrat and an apolitical figure who most people had a positive opinion of if they had any at all. He would not become the devil incarnate until he had the gall to win an election without a D next to his name. The only variants of Lex who have direct descent from Trump are post-2016, which is about the time that every single fictional villain started taking on Trump aspects.
The writers did that. As they did with the cringe worthy Absolute Superman comic.
TRUTH, JUSTICE AND THE AMERICAN WAY ❤🇺🇸❤️
James Gunn is always very respectful to these characters he depicts on screen. He will treat Superman with respect.
Most of the time. He did Drax dirty, but otherwise, yes. I'm excited for the new DCU, especially since MCU is falling apart due to wokeness
@@lorenzogeere1956What wokness dude ? I'm pretty sure Iron Man and Captain America were straight white guys lol. Just like how they were in the comic.

How did you manage to politicize a Superman trailer 😭 As a comic book fan (both marvel and DC), sometimes movies are just fun and cool and you don’t need to bring up conservatives or liberals and just enjoy the movie…
Agree 😂
"conservative superman"
Are we being deadass gng 💔💔💔
This is, by far, my most anticipated movie. I think it looks fantastic! A return to hope and optimism in superhero movies! That little kid holding up the flag and calling for Superman is exactly what that character represents. Truth, justice, and the American way!
No it’s not.
