@bobatalks …what if that isn’t Superman putting his boots? Everyone has drawn the conclusion that Superman is tired and beat down and he is going out after a long day of work… what if that’s not Superman? What if that’s “Ultraman” and that’s why he is “taking his time”.
I love that David Corenswet was the one who pushed for the addition of the trunks. It makes so much more sense that Superman would be thinking of making people feel less afraid of him by dressing a little goofier.
@@AlexBlack-ct3nzI can’t see him mom making this bulky suit, I definitely can’t see him wearing this under his clothes. I’m hope this film is good and he gets a new better looking suit in the sequels
This is where I have to love you and leave you, Boba. I want to go into the theater on July 11th knowing as little about Superman as possible and now that details are dropping and the trailer is imminent - I'll be skipping most of your videos. I'll watch the non Superman content but I just gotta avoid as many spoilers and info as I can. Thank you for keeping us all entertained and informed during the very dark times for the DCEU and DCU and I'm thrilled for you that you have over 128,000 subscribers and now have something exciting to talk about each day.
No worries Hawkman! If there were any spoiler-ish details/talk in future videos... I would give spoiler warning! So, I don't think you should be concerned there. As for this video, this was all said by James Gunn himself to reporters and he doesn't like giving out spoilers so I would regard that as 'safe'. Either way, thank you for your kind words and I'll see you around :)
Good riddance . its FUCKlNG Suoerman what is there to spoil? Lex Luthor has been in every iteration of Superman, ever. Supes saves cats from trees. I just want the comic book to come alive and only Man of Steel has come close to that. And for Superman to fight a Godzilla to start the film WoW! Gunn knows😂 how to set it off
You're one of the very few content creators who talks mainly about DC out there right now on this site so it's been nice to see your channel growing more and more especially with all the DCU related videos you put out there every week and all the excitement not only for Superman next year but for the future of the DCU too. Hopefully when the DCU is a success going forward that your channel continues to grow as. I can imagine if the DCU becomes the thriving film universe we all hope it is that some channels that ignored DC or even made fun of DC as a whole in recent years will figuratively and literally jump on the DCU bandwagon in the future. But you're one of the OGs and real ones who backed, defended, and talked up DC even thru the tough times.
The trunks on Superman is a callback to how the character was inspired by the Strong-Man types in the Circus... an image of strength in a setting for Family/Kids to enjoy... which is the basis of Superman. He's a hero for everyone!
Right. The superhero leotard came from an era long before spandex. And of course, the leotard was meant to show off muscles in a time when no one would dream of doing anything so immodest as baring their chest.
From a design standpoint, trunks aren't necessary. But something needs to be there, or the design doesn't quite work. The blue suit with red boots and virtually no belt breaks up the lines of the figure in an awkward way. Even Batman looks better without trunks than Superman does, just because he had that belt. But he also looks a bit off.
Theater goer's especially parents probably won't have a problem with the trunks but I am pretty sure they won't be too happy with the fact that the writer and director James Gunn thinking that pedophilia is hilarious and likes to throw pedophilia theme parties. Just saying 🤔🤮😡
Dear Boba my father was killed 4 months ago and then one of my best friends killed himself 2 months ago. Your show has helped get threw my depression thank God for you! Best wishes to you and your new wife!
I like David Corenswet's reasoning for wearing the trunks. Reminded me of Batman from The New Frontier. Superman is more kind than Batman, but seeing someone melt metal beams and chuck cars like toys would scare any kid. And Corenswet understood that. The fact that Superman is wearing the trunks, to make children feel safe, already shows how connected he is to humanity.
I think the having trunks is the better look. That said this reasoning is hilarious. So basically he wants to make kids feel safe by wearing his underwear on the outside? That makes no sense. Lol
@@thetikijam "unafraid" was the world they used but yeah Lol. It's a nod to the golden age and the leotards or shorts circus strongmen used, but they've modernized it. How could someone that is that "silly" to wear the trunks outside be a bad guy?
I get the feeling Superman is designed to be a classic: opens in media res; tight period; low exposition; encounters conflict; hits us with Frank Capra - Robert Riskin work... a designed classic. Many films are product. This, if everything clicks, is pure STORY.
If it makes 700 million and is critically successful and loved by fans then that would be a HUGE HUGE win. As much as I hope this thing makes a billion there's just no conceivable way for that to happen right now. They have to win back fan support and good will. It won't happen overnight. Anything close to 700 million, as long as it's a good movie mind you, is a success. The most important thing is that it's really good and really well received.
@Walupeach4528 seriously. And I LOVE Batman but come on, let's have some other stories to explore. I think if it's as good as I believe Gunn can make it, the financial success will take care of itself. We just gotta be level minded about it and not set it up for a bar it can't cross.
@@Soggypizzarollz I think that people might be a bit a bit more skeptical about a DC cinematic universe after the trainwreck that was the DCEU, but if the movie is good and the marketing is effective, I can definitely see it making at least $700 million - $850 million
@@Soggypizzarollz yeah, I think it has a chance, albeit an incredibly small one. But we're in a different space than when Aquaman came out. DC was still getting the benefit of the doubt and the genre was at its almost absolute peak.
I know that this is a Superman movie but Mr Terrific has been my favorite character for a while now. Hearing it confirmed that he plays a major part in the plot of the story is a pretty big deal; especially with this being his theatrical debut. Hopefully, we get a Terrifics spinoff. Maybe that is one of the scenes at the end that Gunn is talking about.
From the on set filming pictures we saw this past summer. Mr Terrific is talking with Superman in the streets, him interacting with Krypto telling him to fly off, I think he also is fighting alongside Superman in that baseball park action set piece vs the Engineer and that guy dressed in all black with the "U" on his chest. Also isn't it assumed because of again on set photos we saw of the Daily Planet staff of Lois, Jimmy, Perry, Lombard, Grant, & Troupe all coming and walking out of some kind of potential space ship too which many are believing it's his T-Sphere ship. So yeah I think he'll end up being Supeman's superhero colleague for most of the movie.
Regarding Gunn talking about how so much is riding on "Superman", we've got to keep in mind that Gunn has said much more recently that when things were just starting to take shape for the DCU and "Superman" was in the process of being filmed, he was indeed very nervous about making sure everything about it was great, so his comments in this article make sense. But nowadays, he's said he's not nervous anymore because he's confident in what he has in front of him, he genuinely believes what he has filmed for "Superman" is great, and he's not nervous anymore, but rather is excited to show us what he has in store for us.
@@DeathFORcameO I can understand why. But I think we'll be fine. The teaser and trailers just have to be great (as does the movie). The fact that they've said they are planning to promote and market this movie like crazy is REALLY going to help this movie too.
im having a hard time in my life now, things are kinda hopeless for me now......your videos help me alot and i am a big fan of dc it has been my comfort since i was in middleschool thanks alot i enjoy hearing you talk and reading the comments, a lovely community
I really hope they're able to do something special with the flying that really wows people. I think flying in superhero movies has become paint by numbers by and large. It would be nice to see Superman once again be the one to make you believe a man can fly with some new, innovative technicques and special effects.
yup. flying scenes are so boring in hollywood films. it's always about how fast it is. zoom from A to B.. a blur here, a blur there. you are in the cloud, in the realm of the gods, the sky as your sandbox. live a little. flying scene is supposed to be majestic and awe-inspiring. miyazaki knows this. just watch all the flying scenes in ghibli films. they are the best. even james cameron took notice and used it for his avatar.
I agree. I was watching Superman with my 5 year old today and the flying effects from 1978 looked more real in that they weren't just some cgi blur. The wire work was good, and in some of the scenes where Supes was flying on an actual set and not in front of a green screen he really did look like he was flying. Heck, even the green screen didn't look too bad since the backgrounds were real places and not cgi.
@JuliusTurner-hm6ff I hope not. Sony, MCU and the DCEU haven't done well with comicbook movies over the last few years. I like seeing these characters on screen. Would be a shame if these studios can't put something on screen that most audiences and critics like, so we can keep getting these movies.
I kinda like the idea of Corenswets re-interpretation of why Superman wears the trunks. The original reason no longer fits today (circus/carnival strongmen back in the day wearing tights/bodysuits with trunks on the outside and boots) as they did when Superman and Batman debuted. His interpretation also tells me how he see's Superman and I think that's a good thing.
Agree totally that the movie shouldn't be about seed planting and setting up with cameos. We want people to be watching this in 30 years by itself not just set up a MCU for DC
I'm watching a LOT of Superman movies & series before I get to see the upcoming film. Gotta say My Adventures With Superman, The Animated Series, two of Christopher Reeve's best Superman films (including Richard Donnor's Cut). Just amazing👌
I say Superman will cross the 1 billion dollar mark at the box office. Just wait for the trailer and see the superman hype. The most popular superman with a movie directed by Gunn, movie is going to be good no doubt and also will break the box office.
I’m pro-trunks. I thought Cavill’s all-blue body ensemble looked weird, like a bobsledder’s unitard or something. You either need the trunks or some other way to integrate some red in the lower body (stripes or patches or something) to splash it up a little.
Cavill suit was alienish and the best Superman suit ever! Wearing diapers is not like some kind of Mesiah for being "comic accurate" They looks goofy! 80% of REAL Superman fans don't like the diapers
Superman trailer is releasing on my graduation day in college 😭😭😭 I'm so happy... what a combo of happiness... my favourite superhero is finally on its way And thank you for the details of the superman movie boba... makes me more super excited🤩 cant wait for July
Makes me remember when Del Toro filmed on Rigs and helicopters for Pacific Rim to give more believability to having this giant beings compared to human scale things. Looks very different on the sequel where they use "virtual cameras" in the 3d environments, feels less grounded and "fake" compared to the first movie
Lana knows who Clark is, she's always the first to find out. He may have also trained with the Legion of Super Heroes so that group and everyone in the 31st Century probably know too.
Hoult interpretation of Lex is going to remind me of Michael from Smallville. His portrayal as Lex is legendary. He embodied Lex & you loved to hate him
Hey Boba. I love the idea of a very introspective Superman who's at that point in life where he's exploring his identity, questioning his place in the world, & we're experiencing that WITH him as the character evolves. I'd have even been open to a bit of inner monologue narration here & there.
Hear me out... The pilot of the Dean Cain series ends with superman meeting lex and telling him 'if you ever need to find me, look up' 🤔 I'm hoping for a modern reimagining of that scene 🤯
David Corenswet is a brilliant man ,saying trunks make kids trust Superman more, that great ,like the trunks add a layer of trust in the eyes of kids ,that's good.
I am one of those who is starting to suspect that if Superman Flops it will be nothing but Batman films forever, but I am hopeful. Very hopeful. So far everything we have seen and heard has me knowing this is Superman :)
Tons of Superman stories in comics over the years start off with him fighting a giant robot or monster of some kind. Glad to know there's a good chance of the movie being at least as comic-accurate as that!
I think her knowing who Superman is, is that she knows what he stands for and wouldn’t do anything to put people in harms way hence my theory she is going to be crucial in proving he is innocent against ultraman parading as Superman but that’s my theory idk
I like the "neither is a mask" angle, but mainly because of the Krytonian heritage mentions that i think it will pay off massively when we finally see him interact with Bruce. That realisation from Clark that the human side of his human counterpart is a sham will be a great interaction
Boba, when you mention "Realistic" you should mention MOS, ZSJL, these are the most realistic comic movies ever made, and they are so good!...I didnt want this change, but cant wait to see what he does with it, must be he finally heard the critisizims because he made a point to say "Not like GOTG"..LOL...OK we"ll see, because everything he has done in this genre has literally been the same tone...Im excited now though! because if he him self knows this and is trying to show out, Man O Man hit me with all the ACTION the whole Effing film, and with the tech today this could be unreal if he does it right, but DC is #1 Always!
Great video Boba (as always)! Do you know if they talked about anything else in the press event, apart from Superman? That was the speculation before, but it looks like it was 100% about Supes after all?
Boba idk if you’ve gotten married yet but congrats on your day whenever that is man🙏🏾💯 superman trailer and becoming a married man in the same month/ even the same week is crazy, from Gotham, lucifer, superman and Lois and now SUPERMAN! if you have a kid Bruce or Clark is the only acceptable names I think it’s safe to say😂🤷🏽♂️. anyway looking forward to seeing your reaction Thursday morning to the new trailer and congrats again on the marriage bro! you’ll do great. love as usual from Toronto.
If there's one thing I like hearing in this interview about Lex Luthor, vs the one we got in Superman and Lois... I was missing the Super Genius aspect of Lex... he was too busy wrapped up in revenge and being with his Daughter that I didn't get a sense he was a very smart dude...and even moreso to the point when we had his Assistant basically build his plans for him, even his Computer Genius Milton Fine help out... Lex was a blank slate in that show that kinda disappointed me a little.
I have such high hopes for this movie. It’s been SOO long since we got a true Superman movie that understands the character. Man of steel isn’t a bad movie but it’s not truly Superman and the tone sure isn’t. This could become the definitive Superman
David understands superman he wants to wear red trunks because he wants people to like him and not be afraid of him even when he’s got incredible powers
I can’t wait to see mr Terrific hawk girl Green lantern and meta morpho because we never got these characters before together in live action and I love these characters
wouldn't mind if their relationship is like in Action comics #1: that She basically can't stand Clark, she isn't interested in him she doesn't even notice him
I have a theory based on a trailer description I read (I'm not sure if this description is accurate) but apparently in the trailer Superman mentions to Kyrpto to "take him home". I think we will get a scene straight out of For All Seasons where he quits being Superman for a short bit and goes back to Smallville and the "other people" who know the real Clark are Lana Lang and Pete Ross and we get a dinner scene with them talking to Clark about his time in Metropolis and why he decided to hang up the cape and move back to the farm
I have been excited for this movie for months now since I saw the suit reveal and the set photos, but over these past two days, the excitement has shot through the roof! The poster is perfection. The movie tagline being look up is an outstanding decision. The theme!!! Beautiful!!! Everything I’m seeing tells me this might be one of the greatest superhero movies of all time. James Gunn’s understanding of the character isn’t a simple case of, “Oh, yeah, Superman! He’s the strong alien that wears blue, red, and yellow.” Rather, his perspective is one of, “This is the paragon of virtue and good in a world that is made up entirely of the scum of the earth. This is the farm boy who is just as likely to help a little girl on the verge of suicide as he is to stop a comet that’s about to destroy the whole world.” Maybe it sounds corny, but this is the kind of reverence that Superman deserves!
What I hated about the previous DCEU was they rushed to the big team ups without giving them individually their own time to live of their own lives and develop their own rogues galleries.
This movie is gonna make around $600 million and WB has to take that as a massive W. Because as of right now, the audience has completely given up and lost faith in the DC property movie wise all their movies have flopped the past couple years. So if this movie makes $600 that’s more money than any of their movies have made in quite a while.
Apples and Oranges my friend. Cavill was growing into classic Superman. It was the approach Snyder wanted to take. Gunn is giving us classic Superman from the jump. I loved MoS. I can’t wait to see this film too!!!
Personally, I hope the movie plays up David Corenswet’s Clark Kent in a similar vein as Jack Quaid’s Clark from “My Adventures with Superman”, where he’s an adorkable nerd who’s charming and kind-hearted, but also sympathetic and just wants to do the right thing despite the overwhelming odds against him.
I really hope this movie does Lex justice, I really don't want another Jesse Eisenberg on our hands and is an actually threatening and intimidating villain
This sounds super promising. Rather than them dating, I like the tradition where Lois has a crush on Superman, while she sees Clark as this ordinary, unappealing guy.
I disagree with you, that this movie needs to make more than The Batman to ensure a successful start for the DCU. I don’t think it can afford to be a flop, but they certainly need to break even. DC’s IP is shot. As long as they get critical praise and break even, it will be a success in the current climate. The DCU does not have the luxury of following a universally praised and successful Nolan trilogy to guarantee bums in seats.
I mean ideally yeah, of course. But I'm not sure it will. So, a typical range around that of the success of The Batman's box office would be 'good' from where I'm standing (even anything $700m+), since the beginning of the DCU ultimately needs to win back the good will of the public over time to ensure a better financial success with future projects. Not all those people will necessarily turn up for the first project, so I don't think Superman will ever do as 'good' as it 'should' do even if it is hypothetically a genuinely good movie.
@@BobaTalks I think you're 100% right about it never having the chance to reach it's full box office potential. Who knows. They may have an ace up their sleeve and somehow market to the middle age female and young family market segment to join the billion $$ club?! I can picture a wholesome and hilarious Krypto trailer (with some Superman thirst shots) appealing to those segments. Either way consistency in quality in what they put out will earn back the good will of the public. The $$$ will then come.
Superman was designed to wear trunks from the beginning, his suit never looks quite right without them...that is the reason alot of the time they add red to his belt... because they realize that something is off about that look.
Regarding the suit, im sure James gunn knows people were always gonna hate regardless. They could've easily taken Henry cavil suit and added colour or made a similar design to it and people would've come out saying it's just a cheap copy of Zack snyder. The same goes for the trailer and even the movie itself, they'll be people who wont even watch the movie and will still say it's terrible. Haters will never change. I'm personally very excited and cant wait for it.
Let me know what you thought of all the new insight into the film! *Leave a like on the video if you enjoyed, thank you!*

Heck, even the green screen didn't look too bad since the backgrounds were real places and not cgi.
Doesn't matter much to me. If the stort and acting are good that is what will make or break it for me. Flying convincingly is awesome though ;)
Sounds like this Lex will be a villain that truly makes Superman necessary.
Movie gonna be pure garbage.
@JuliusTurner-hm6ff I hope not. Sony, MCU and the DCEU haven't done well with comicbook movies over the last few years. I like seeing these characters on screen. Would be a shame if these studios can't put something on screen that most audiences and critics like, so we can keep getting these movies.
Gotta say, I have a feeling that Brosnahan is gonna push past everyone to become the definitive Lois. How could she not?
I have a feeling she is too. I’m excited for her!
The best since Margot knocked it out of the park like Reeve portrayed Superman
"Clark and Lois know each other" Interesting choice of words, so I guess Lois isn't aware that Clark is Superman yet.
I kinda like the idea of Corenswets re-interpretation of why Superman wears the trunks. The original reason no longer fits today (circus/carnival strongmen back in the day wearing tights/bodysuits with trunks on the outside and boots) as they did when Superman and Batman debuted. His interpretation also tells me how he see's Superman and I think that's a good thing.
Agree totally that the movie shouldn't be about seed planting and setting up with cameos. We want people to be watching this in 30 years by itself not just set up a MCU for DC
Glad you’re back and enjoyed your wedding Boba!
I'm watching a LOT of Superman movies & series before I get to see the upcoming film. Gotta say My Adventures With Superman, The Animated Series, two of Christopher Reeve's best Superman films (including Richard Donnor's Cut). Just amazing👌
I say Superman will cross the 1 billion dollar mark at the box office. Just wait for the trailer and see the superman hype. The most popular superman with a movie directed by Gunn, movie is going to be good no doubt and also will break the box office.
I’m pro-trunks. I thought Cavill’s all-blue body ensemble looked weird, like a bobsledder’s unitard or something. You either need the trunks or some other way to integrate some red in the lower body (stripes or patches or something) to splash it up a little.
Nahh Cavill's suit was alien and majestic
@@swaroop7021 Majestic but Alien.
The thing missing from cavils suit was something red in the mid belt region
Cavill suit was alienish and the best Superman suit ever! Wearing diapers is not like some kind of Mesiah for being "comic accurate" They looks goofy! 80% of REAL Superman fans don't like the diapers
@@mrgrumpyjinx Type like a real person and not a robot copy and paste
So far Creature Commandos is great fun.
I just hope they can fix GI Robot. He's my favorite character so far.
Superman trailer is releasing on my graduation day in college 😭😭😭 I'm so happy... what a combo of happiness... my favourite superhero is finally on its way
And thank you for the details of the superman movie boba... makes me more super excited🤩 cant wait for July
Nah Jimmy finding out Clark is Superman would be such a funny moment, we cant have him already knowing Clark's secret without seeing him finding out
Makes me remember when Del Toro filmed on Rigs and helicopters for Pacific Rim to give more believability to having this giant beings compared to human scale things. Looks very different on the sequel where they use "virtual cameras" in the 3d environments, feels less grounded and "fake" compared to the first movie
This movie will be a great start & success for the DCU. The casting, the world building, and Gunns vision of the DCU makes me more excited everyday.
Yeah sure buddy. DCU is garbage.
Lana knows who Clark is, she's always the first to find out.
He may have also trained with the Legion of Super Heroes so that group and everyone in the 31st Century probably know too.
If yall aren’t subbed to this man you’re missing out all your dc content is here 💯
Excited for Superman and green lantern also aqua man
Hoult interpretation of Lex is going to remind me of Michael from Smallville. His portrayal as Lex is legendary. He embodied Lex & you loved to hate him
Hey Boba. I love the idea of a very introspective Superman who's at that point in life where he's exploring his identity, questioning his place in the world, & we're experiencing that WITH him as the character evolves. I'd have even been open to a bit of inner monologue narration here & there.
Hear me out... The pilot of the Dean Cain series ends with superman meeting lex and telling him 'if you ever need to find me, look up' 🤔 I'm hoping for a modern reimagining of that scene 🤯
16:23 "He shoot bees out of his eyes." That must a new super power. Not the bees!
David Corenswet is a brilliant man ,saying trunks make kids trust Superman more, that great ,like the trunks add a layer of trust in the eyes of kids ,that's good.
The Fact Top Gun Maverick was apparently the inspiration for The Film's Flight scenes is Just awesome if true
This is the only channel I’ve ever enabled notifications for lol
I haven’t been this excited for a Superman movie in years as James Gunn is making all the right moves!
I bet we get a lot of SUPERMAN news tomorrow too.
Can’t wait for the trailer tomorrow 🔥🔥🔥
It comes out Thursday not tomorrow
DAM U HAD ME?¿?
WHAT DAY !T WAS
4A SEC🤣ND.....
@@bucarriIt's already Wednesday for certain parts of the world...
Gunn has definitely dealt with a Lot Of Pressure which people don't know...
I’m glad Mister terrific will get his shine
Great breakdown video on Superman bro.
Great work man, love the channel
I am one of those who is starting to suspect that if Superman Flops it will be nothing but Batman films forever, but I am hopeful. Very hopeful. So far everything we have seen and heard has me knowing this is Superman :)
trunks !!! I love the trunks, I like it when they honor the original!
I’m here, I wanna thank boba for feeding my brain with Superman and Dc news 🙏
James Gunn perspective on how to make these movies gives me hope for his universe.
Love Mr terrific
Tons of Superman stories in comics over the years start off with him fighting a giant robot or monster of some kind. Glad to know there's a good chance of the movie being at least as comic-accurate as that!
I think her knowing who Superman is, is that she knows what he stands for and wouldn’t do anything to put people in harms way hence my theory she is going to be crucial in proving he is innocent against ultraman parading as Superman but that’s my theory idk
considering the online hype akin to DP&W for Superman, there's no way this movie flops.
I like the "neither is a mask" angle, but mainly because of the Krytonian heritage mentions that i think it will pay off massively when we finally see him interact with Bruce. That realisation from Clark that the human side of his human counterpart is a sham will be a great interaction
Another day another boba banger
Boba, I been rockin with your channel since you covered that awful Titans live action series. Keep up the great work!
I’m glad Gunn is getting a trailer out before Fantastic 4. They release two weeks apart, with Superman first.
Boba, when you mention "Realistic" you should mention MOS, ZSJL, these are the most realistic comic movies ever made, and they are so good!...I didnt want this change, but cant wait to see what he does with it, must be he finally heard the critisizims because he made a point to say "Not like GOTG"..LOL...OK we"ll see, because everything he has done in this genre has literally been the same tone...Im excited now though! because if he him self knows this and is trying to show out, Man O Man hit me with all the ACTION the whole Effing film, and with the tech today this could be unreal if he does it right, but DC is #1 Always!
Great video Boba (as always)!
Do you know if they talked about anything else in the press event, apart from Superman? That was the speculation before, but it looks like it was 100% about Supes after all?
What if they flip the usual trope and have Lois be into Clark and be unimpressed with Superman.
That would be a refreshing take.
Like Superman and Lois
Im too young to have lived the classic superman era, young enough to have seen bvs in cinema, but old enough to see the rebirth of a new DC universe
Boba idk if you’ve gotten married yet but congrats on your day whenever that is man🙏🏾💯 superman trailer and becoming a married man in the same month/ even the same week is crazy, from Gotham, lucifer, superman and Lois and now SUPERMAN! if you have a kid Bruce or Clark is the only acceptable names I think it’s safe to say😂🤷🏽♂️. anyway looking forward to seeing your reaction Thursday morning to the new trailer and congrats again on the marriage bro! you’ll do great. love as usual from Toronto.
I have indeed, thank you! I showed a couple of wedding pictures in my my past few videos (not yesterdays)! :)
21:28 Me too, Boba, ME TOO!
Me when boba talks 🔥🔥😎
Yo you said the thing
Yes! 2 Days Left For The Trailer
Busy busy boba 🔥🔥💯
Cool hat man!
Does anyone know where the footage of Gunn talking with that superman poster in the background is from???
If there's one thing I like hearing in this interview about Lex Luthor, vs the one we got in Superman and Lois... I was missing the Super Genius aspect of Lex... he was too busy wrapped up in revenge and being with his Daughter that I didn't get a sense he was a very smart dude...and even moreso to the point when we had his Assistant basically build his plans for him, even his Computer Genius Milton Fine help out... Lex was a blank slate in that show that kinda disappointed me a little.
I swear I just watched the other superman video lol I really hope when I watch Superman next year that I enjoy it :)
I have such high hopes for this movie. It’s been SOO long since we got a true Superman movie that understands the character. Man of steel isn’t a bad movie but it’s not truly Superman and the tone sure isn’t. This could become the definitive Superman
David understands superman he wants to wear red trunks because he wants people to like him and not be afraid of him even when he’s got incredible powers
Good update.
I’m excited for this considering Superman is my all time favorite since I was a kid
The trunks are an iconic part of Superman
I can’t wait to see mr Terrific hawk girl Green lantern and meta morpho because we never got these characters before together in live action and I love these characters
wouldn't mind if their relationship is like in Action comics #1: that She basically can't stand Clark, she isn't interested in him she doesn't even notice him
I have a theory based on a trailer description I read (I'm not sure if this description is accurate) but apparently in the trailer Superman mentions to Kyrpto to "take him home". I think we will get a scene straight out of For All Seasons where he quits being Superman for a short bit and goes back to Smallville and the "other people" who know the real Clark are Lana Lang and Pete Ross and we get a dinner scene with them talking to Clark about his time in Metropolis and why he decided to hang up the cape and move back to the farm
I have been excited for this movie for months now since I saw the suit reveal and the set photos, but over these past two days, the excitement has shot through the roof! The poster is perfection. The movie tagline being look up is an outstanding decision. The theme!!! Beautiful!!! Everything I’m seeing tells me this might be one of the greatest superhero movies of all time. James Gunn’s understanding of the character isn’t a simple case of, “Oh, yeah, Superman! He’s the strong alien that wears blue, red, and yellow.” Rather, his perspective is one of, “This is the paragon of virtue and good in a world that is made up entirely of the scum of the earth. This is the farm boy who is just as likely to help a little girl on the verge of suicide as he is to stop a comet that’s about to destroy the whole world.” Maybe it sounds corny, but this is the kind of reverence that Superman deserves!
What I hated about the previous DCEU was they rushed to the big team ups without giving them individually their own time to live of their own lives and develop their own rogues galleries.
This movie is gonna make around $600 million and WB has to take that as a massive W. Because as of right now, the audience has completely given up and lost faith in the DC property movie wise all their movies have flopped the past couple years. So if this movie makes $600 that’s more money than any of their movies have made in quite a while.
James Gunn already proving he understands Superman more in the first act of his film than Snyder did in three films 🤣🤣🤣
Apples and Oranges my friend. Cavill was growing into classic Superman. It was the approach Snyder wanted to take. Gunn is giving us classic Superman from the jump. I loved MoS. I can’t wait to see this film too!!!
@ShinAkakage Well said bro 👏🏼
Thank you. @@ShinAkakage
@@larrykwartowitz you’re welcome
Hey Boba just curious where you got that Batman crewneck? would love to get one lol
Personally, I hope the movie plays up David Corenswet’s Clark Kent in a similar vein as Jack Quaid’s Clark from “My Adventures with Superman”, where he’s an adorkable nerd who’s charming and kind-hearted, but also sympathetic and just wants to do the right thing despite the overwhelming odds against him.
I really hope this movie does Lex justice, I really don't want another Jesse Eisenberg on our hands and is an actually threatening and intimidating villain
Boba defo working on it 😂
They playing this safe but ... new. Soundtrack, title. It's the right move given what is riding on this film.
The teaser just dropped where we see the daily planets globe
This sounds super promising. Rather than them dating, I like the tradition where Lois has a crush on Superman, while she sees Clark as this ordinary, unappealing guy.
I am anxiously waiting to see this movie. I’ve got a feeling it’s going to be the best Superman movie since the first Chris Reeve Superman movie.
I think if it doesn't hit the big boy billion they're going to be upset
I cant wait for Superman
I disagree with you, that this movie needs to make more than The Batman to ensure a successful start for the DCU.
I don’t think it can afford to be a flop, but they certainly need to break even. DC’s IP is shot. As long as they get critical praise and break even, it will be a success in the current climate.
The DCU does not have the luxury of following a universally praised and successful Nolan trilogy to guarantee bums in seats.
I mean ideally yeah, of course. But I'm not sure it will. So, a typical range around that of the success of The Batman's box office would be 'good' from where I'm standing (even anything $700m+), since the beginning of the DCU ultimately needs to win back the good will of the public over time to ensure a better financial success with future projects. Not all those people will necessarily turn up for the first project, so I don't think Superman will ever do as 'good' as it 'should' do even if it is hypothetically a genuinely good movie.
I doubt it will.
@@BobaTalks I think you're 100% right about it never having the chance to reach it's full box office potential.
Who knows. They may have an ace up their sleeve and somehow market to the middle age female and young family market segment to join the billion $$ club?!
I can picture a wholesome and hilarious Krypto trailer (with some Superman thirst shots) appealing to those segments.
Either way consistency in quality in what they put out will earn back the good will of the public. The $$$ will then come.
Superman was designed to wear trunks from the beginning, his suit never looks quite right without them...that is the reason alot of the time they add red to his belt... because they realize that something is off about that look.
Do you think we will get more info about other protects this week?
Regarding the suit, im sure James gunn knows people were always gonna hate regardless. They could've easily taken Henry cavil suit and added colour or made a similar design to it and people would've come out saying it's just a cheap copy of Zack snyder. The same goes for the trailer and even the movie itself, they'll be people who wont even watch the movie and will still say it's terrible. Haters will never change. I'm personally very excited and cant wait for it.
