I had completely forgotten about Super. 
Then again Kick-Ass came out around the same time.

Happy Easter, Guest!
I liked Kick- Ass a lot better.I had completely forgotten about Super.

I like em bothI liked Kick- Ass a lot better.
And in addition to that, Super manages to be genuinely heartbreaking and emotional.Super is a much better, more genuinely nasty movie than Kick-Ass. It's a lot more committed to being ugly and horrible without Kick-Ass's misguided effort at also being a fun cool time. The DC stuff Gunn has done that I've liked so far is when it really feels like threading the needle between Guardians and Super. Creature Commandos, on the other hand, mostly felt like the work of the guy who wrote Scooby-Doo.
It's alright. Better than the rest of the show which I thought was an unrelenting dumpster fire with some clever ideas. Gunn's DC stuff apart from that is great but I really didn't need to be subjected to blandly animated microwaved leftovers of the less interesting parts of those projects.And the ending is genuinely heartbreaking and emotional.
"Defendor" with Woody Harrelson came out not much later too.Yeah I hated Super. I don't even remember anything about it now, I just remember thinking it was really miserable & cynical in tone, which was why Kick-Ass appealed to me way more.
I am kinda curious how I'd feel watching it now though.

Around the time "Real life superheroes" were in vogue,
I understand the anxiety during the weeks with no news (but hold on, the main trailer is coming!), but let's not worry when what we've seen so far is simply perfect!
Smile and life will smile back at you.

Not a single day has gone by since the trailer came out that I didn't rewatch it and find myself smiling and getting goosebumps.
In a world full of Homelanders, be Superman.With all of the madness currently going around the globe, it'll definitely be nice to have an uplifting feel-good Superman movie to watch.
I think the two more reliable dates are 1 April (Cinemacon) and 18 April (Superman Day).Do we have any reliable inklings of when Trailer 2 will drop?
My money’s on, Superman Day.I think the two more reliable dates are 1 April (Cinemacon) and 18 April (Superman Day).
We know WB has a big presentation on April 1st (4:30pm PT/7:30 ET) at CinemaCon that is reportedly Superman-heavy (Gunn has confirmed they will at least be there). So maybe there. Plus, Minecraft comes out a few days after that, and since it's a family-aimed WB movie expected to draw a decent crowd, that's the perfect timing for the new trailer to be attached. So I'd bet on that 1st week of April over Superman Day. But if not then, then sure, Superman Day lol.Do we have any reliable inklings of when Trailer 2 will drop?
I feel quite good about it too. But it also feels like make or break for the character, and the new continuity before it even starts.My life’s been so incredibly stressful thanks to work, but this feels like the first time i’ve had genuine, palpable excitement for a superhero project since the first Reeves Batman. Really really feel good about this one
Maybe a trailer?Looks like DC Japan's X account is teasing something Superman related for tomorrow.
