I want so badly to be excited for this movie. I'm just worried that they're doubling down on the dark/broody elements from previous DC movies to differentiate themselves from the more light-hearted Marvel movies.
I loved the Nolan Batman movies, but Man of Steel was an absolute mess. This looks like they've taken all of the memorable aspects of both and just thrown them into a blender.
I'm still hopefully though. The trailer leaves a lot out, and there's definitely some really rich story possible with this idea. They also have some very talented people working behind the camera on this film. Zach Synder is a true auteur, and has made some absolutely brilliant works of art in his career. So as long as this film is more Watchmen and less Man of Steel, it could be something really special.
