Of all the trailers I saw from SDCC, I liked Discovery most, and Glass 2nd. DC brings up the rear with Shazam and finally Aquaman. -- nm

I liked Aquaman's, was highly intrigued by Glass, thought Shazam looked dumb (Big as a superhero could be great though), and Godzilla was a steaming - Will Hunting, King of Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:04 21
- You *liked* Aquaman? Go to doctor right now! -- nm - David Jul 23, 09:07 20
  - It was brighter than 90% of DCEU stuff, Momoa is clearly having a blast and the quips worked for me. - Will Hunting, King of Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:08 19
    - A Special Ops mission at midnight on a moonless night is brighter than 80% of DCEU films... -- nm - Ender Jul 23, 09:42
    - You posted this from the car on the way to the doctor's office, right? -- nm - David Jul 23, 09:29 5
      - So, what didn't work for you besides Heard being a terrible actress? - Will Hunting, King of Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:40 4
        
        All of it. All of it didn't work for me. -- nm - TWuG Jul 23, 09:44
        
        I thought that the dialogue issues plagued everyone and was kind of mortified for James Wan that this was the best trailer from his work thus far. - David Jul 23, 09:41 2
        
        I didn't know who directed it, but once I saw his name, I was a lot more comfortable. - Will Hunting, King of Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:53 1
        
        I agree with will -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 23, 10:09
    - There were colours everywhere! -- nm - Shaun Jul 23, 09:11 11
      - I like to see what I'm seeing. - Will Hunting, King of Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:13 10
        
        I have hopes that they do a little bit of color correction before it is released. - groiny Jul 23, 09:15 9
        
        I did welcome the brighter palette, but I do also agree with you. Heard looked almost completely fake. -- nm - Shaun Jul 23, 09:19 8
        
        Realism comes from acting talent. -- nm - Will Hunting, King of Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:20 7
        
        No amount of acting talent can fix a wig. -- nm - Ender Jul 23, 09:40 2
        
        a BAD wig. - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:42 1
        
        A good wig doesn't need fixing... -- nm - Ender Jul 23, 09:44
        
        may as well have been Jessica Rabbit. -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 09:21 3
        
        See, *that* was a redhead done right. - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:23 2
        
        They could ask her to act. -- nm - David Jul 23, 09:30
        
        ask JDEPP -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 09:24
Shazam looked god awful to me. - groiny Jul 23, 08:51 11
- I liked it. It's a totally different type of super hero movie, but for DC that's a good thing. I think it could totally work. -- nm - Ender Jul 23, 09:45 2
  - Shazam looks like it has the potential to be good, but will probably suck. Aquaman just looks godawful -- (edited) - TWuG Jul 23, 09:47
  - yup -- nm - Beaker Jul 23, 09:45
- Agreed. -- nm - JaxSean Jul 23, 09:20
- It had a "I might see it with MoviePass" feel. I see every superhero movie, and I actively want to avoid Aquaman. -- nm - Mop Jul 23, 08:52 1
  - I am sure I will see Aquaman, but I am not going anywhere near Shazam. -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 08:53
- An Aquman/Shazam double feature could be used as punishment. -- nm - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 08:52 4
  - parts of Aquaman looked interesting, but it looked way too cartooney for my liking. -- nm - groiny Jul 23, 08:53 3
    - I loved the sequence at the aquarium. - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 08:58 2
      - What if a whole movie was just a series of quips? -- nm - Mop Jul 23, 08:59 1
        
        like Die Hard? -- nm - Remlik Jul 23, 10:15
Godzilla might edge out Glass, for me. -- nm - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 08:51 6
- Not liking Godzilla because it's got that apocalyptic vibe I dislike in movies. -- nm - Mop Jul 23, 08:51 5
  - Yeah, giant monsters all over the earth should be Happy Fun-Time. -- nm - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 08:52 4
    - *shrug* Don't like the genre. Like 2012 or San Andreas. Not my cup of tea. -- nm - Mop Jul 23, 08:55 3
      - You could argue that giant monsters *are* natural disasters, but I would disagree. -- nm - Spawn: I AM Blood Feud Jul 23, 09:21
      - Uh, San Andreas had the Dadds all soaked up in a white tank top. - Shaun Jul 23, 09:03 1
        
        worked for me -- nm - Epiphany Jul 23, 09:20
