Cautiously optimistic. I groaned when I first heard Affleck was going to be Batman in the last movie but found myself really liking his version of the character, actually to my chagrin, more than Bale. LOVE Gadot's Wonder Woman. I think Supes is okay, but I really miss the "Aw-Shucks" Midwestern Clark who occasionally gives a wink and a smile and actually seems to
like being Superman.
Not sure about the new guys. I fully expect them to go overboard (
...oh right, no pun intended) on trying to make Aquaman more badass and less guy-in-green-tights-who-talks-to-fish and it looks as though that's what they're doing. No real feelings on Cyborg; looks okay I guess. But what is going on with Flash? I agree with Jimmy on Flash's suit of armor. Honestly, there are a couple of shots in the trailer where I thought Flash was
Cyborg.
Anyway, one question I have about these DC movies is why so dark? Not just dark in terms of characterization, but actually, literally
dark? In contrast to the airport scene in Avengers showing a sunny afternoon of brightly colored heroes battling each other, a lot of the action in the DC movies I've seen is grim heroes in muted colors sloshing around in rainwater in the middle of the night. Or at least an overcast, gray day over a gray city skyline or barren landscape. Geez, Zach. It's okay for heroes to smile and wear red instead of dark maroon and show up for work on a sunny day.
