Thoughts on the Justice League trailer

I think that people forget who is directing this movie: Zack Snyder. You either love him or you hate him. DC took a gamble with him, considering the only movie he's made that's not totally polarizing is 300. 50% of people will love it. 50% will hate it. That won't change. Snyder will NEVER compromise his style.

This is why Snyder is going to end up without a career in the long run. If someone isn't willing to change despite their approach not wielding acceptable results, they're either insane or dumb, or both.

So Goyer screwed us... again. Should have just let Terrio write the script alone.

isn't terrio the only writer on jl?

It looks boring. You can feel the group think when you watch it. "People thought the previous entries were too dark, let's add humor!" But the jokes fall flat, at least for me. To be fair I wasn't expecting much because Batman and Wonder Woman are the only characters in this flick that I find interesting; the rest are lame to begin with. I'll wait for trailer two before I decide to go see it.

I thought BvS had some enjoyable moments but was terrible overall. What I find concerning is that the best part of BvS for me was this insane version of Bruce that they seem to have gone away from here. I mean they had to or the movie simply wouldn't work, but still. I'm excited about Wonder Woman, but if that movie ends up sucking, I highly doubt I'll give JL a shot.

Perhaps you didn't notice, but there is a hint in the trailer. There's a shot of Lois Lane looking up in the sky. I think we can be fairly certain she's not looking at a bird or a plane.

Problem with Snyder's "look" is that a scene that should only be 5 seconds long can easily be elongated to 30 seconds with slow motions, flashbacks, different angle shots, etc. 

Longer shots means less time to get story in. So no matter how good the script is, if Snyder doesn't reign in his visual-extravaganza inclinations the story will still suffer. 

Well you can blame Gary Clark Jr.
