I don't think there's anything bad with having strong impressions or opinions based on first reveals. It's stuff the studio is intentionally putting out there so people have an opinion on it. It's totally fair for people to change their mind as well.I always love first reveals just solely on the fact that I can always go back in time after the movie has come out and reread the first reactions.
Does anyone remember how a lot of people hated Heath's Joker photo a year before TDK came out?

I think that is kind of what he is saying.I don't think there's anything bad with having strong impressions or opinions based on first reveals. It's stuff the studio is intentionally putting out there so people have an opinion on it. It's totally fair for people to change their mind as well.
Considering Gunn’s humor, the thought of Superman putting his boots on one leg at a time like the rest of us is the point of the reveal.Costume design aside, I'm also surprised that Gunn didn't go with a more classic/traditional pose for the costume reveal.
A (playful) rhetorical question: Why do we always see CK ripping his shirt open but not unbuckling his belt, unzipping his fly and dropping his trousers? Well, the former is a famously iconic image. The latter falls into the category of “too much information.” We assume it happens; but it’s not something we actually need to see.This is a total guess...but I think the point of the reveal picture is to show the scope of the film. Something big is happening but Superman still has to put his boots on one at a time to fight it. He has a life outside Superman.

Granted, putting on boots is a more innocuous activity. And there is a sense in which The Photo, as you mentioned, conveys a kind of real-world verisimilitude. But perhaps that nuance would come across better in the third or fourth photo of a series. I'm just not sure it was the best first image to use.
Don't see how that'd have anything to do with it.So if that is indeed Solaris, what do people think of this theory going around that the suit looking baggy is because Superman is robbed of his power here.
Sure, I completely agree that the suit looking baggy still might not make the best first impression, whether it fits the story or not, but it's interesting to consider.
Now post a Jared Leto Joker first pic thread, I could use a good laugh/stroll down memory laneI always love first reveals just solely on the fact that I can always go back in time after the movie has come out and reread the first reactions.
