Stardate 03.27.2017.B: The Justice League Is Coming Together Nicely

3/27/2017

Those who've been around the web for as long as I have will tell you that there's two kinds of people: those who accept DC Comics' movies or those who don't.  I get that the pantheon of heroes comprising the DC Universe aren't all the cat's meow that (apparently) are the Marvel knuckleheads, but I grew up on a steady diet of Batman, Superman, and their various Super Friends, so I'm clearly in the camp that champions a good cinematic release featuring them whenever I can get one.

​So, yes, I'm totally jazzed about the forthcoming Justice League movie, though I'll admit I'm honestly at a loss as to whether or not it will be a two-parter or a single film.  (My understanding is that it was originally planned as two parts, but the lackluster reception of the latest Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice forced Warner Bros. to request it all be chucked into a single flick.)  Last week, the studio dropped a handful of teaser trailers -- each one featuring the heroes in the separate glory -- and, this past Saturday, the released the full "official trailer" in its splendor.

​My only quibble (isn't there always one?) is the Cyborg.  I've seen vastly worse CGI creations, and -- while this one didn't quite win me over -- this one might be hard to swallow.  It's happened before that the pre-release footage of effects shots sets the bar low, and maybe that's the case here.  I guess we'll have to wait for the film to know for certain.

For those who missed it elsewhere, here's the preview:

As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!
