Up, up and “Aarrrrrrrrrrrh !!“?
Images of the highly anticipated revival of the DC studios of Superman Divides fans of the emblematic character of DC Comics after a five-minute clip from the next film (below) was released on Thursday. The video represented a man from suffering steel assisted by his dog and a squadron of robots.
The film by the writer-director James Gunn-which is also co-chief of DC Studios-is considered a film of critical production for the studio, which is based strongly on the version of July 11 to help launch a new generation of superhero titles.
A certain degree of snark on social media about any film related to superheroes is to be expected – especially if a filmmaker takes risks with the material, like Gunn clearly. THE Galaxy goalkeepers The director moves Superman in a lighter territory after the aesthetics of the vision of the vision of director Zack Snyder on the hero in films such as 2013 Steel man.
In the clip, a broken and beaten superman slipped into the snow while he still struck by his dog too enthusiastic Krypto, making him grimac in pain. Krypto brings him back to his solicitude fortress. There, Superman is helped by a quartet of robotic guards who heal him with an enlarged sunlight, making him scream and twisted in agony. This is followed by a series of brief plans from the rest of the film.
The online reaction has been quite strong and apparently comes down to two factors: do you want a superman who is more waterproof and God, or more human and vulnerable? Do you want a superman film that takes itself very seriously, or more comical?
First of all, here is a sample of opponents of Travers X, Reddit and Youtube:
– “The real superman does not need a bunch of robots to transport it to a table to heal … and do not cry like a little slut when the sun strikes him.”
– “The Snyder Superman literally took a nuclear bomb in the occasional and healed of the sun without feeling in pain of his radiation, which is correct in the comics. The mediocre interpretation of Gunn cries in agony.”
– “James Gunn understands, they said. He will not do a stupid comedy, they said. They said he understood the mission. It was the worst superman clip that I never saw. It is a total joke and everything is a question of Krypto.”
Now here are some of the positive outlets, which seem to be in the majority:
– “How can he not like this overview in the name of hell? I am convinced that some people just like to rage. It seems so” superman “it’s crazy.”
-“From a distance, from a distance, the best part of this trailer is that there is zero cynicism, null of moral grayality, zero self-depreciation, no one that Superman is a” vigilant “. It is a romantic, idealistic and innocent vision that is pure impressive. »»
– “I love the design of Fortress of Solitude and the double giant doors with the House of El symbol that lights up. We have Krypto, Kelex and the other service robots. It is a very silver age and all the superman and i fuckin ‘love it! ”
– “The dog being an excessive little shit that jumps over you at the worst time is incredibly relatable. Besides, good Lord, everything on the fortress looks great. This film is superman as fucking.”
Or, as a user sums up the debate:
DC titles have endured several years of box office control due to a series of slightly examined efforts (such as The flash,, Black Adam,, Shazam! Fury of the gods And Aquaman and the lost kingdom), coupled with the too familiar spectrum of superhero fatigue. Now Gunn and his co-chief of DC Studios, Peter Safran, who were not in charge of DC when these films were made, wipe the slate largely clean with Superman.
In Cinemacon, Gunn appeared alongside Safran, while the stars David Corenswet (Superman), Rachel Brosnahan (Lois Lane) and Nicholas Hoult (Lex Luthor) also went on stage.
Since the stage, Gunn has shared: “I can’t wait to share the film with all the guys and the rest of the world.” He added: “We are still prey to post-production.”
Superman is distributed by Warner Bros. The cast also includes Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Sara Sampaio (Eve Teschmacher), Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific), Terence Rosemore (Otis), Anthony Carrigan (Metamorpho), Isabela Merced (Hawkgir Faría (the engineer).
