Superman (2025) Official Teaser Trailer REACTION

[@targetaudience]

Bit rusty on trailer reactions, apologies for the trailer audio drowning out my comments lol

[@sillyquiet]

eh, your face made up for it. No worries. Great reaction!

[@EnigmaticPenguin]

WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THAT SICK GUITAR RIFF.

[@MrDeathpilot]

Eh... you never say anything meaningful anyway. jk 😂

[@tonyadler1319]

As a guy who stood in line for 4 hours to watch the original Chris Reeve Superman, I'm excited about this one.

[@mothbreeder641]

Why?

[@VolkXue]

the original superman went around helping and doing a lot of small stuff at first. I'm wondering if this will be the same

[@obiwanjakobe9814]

@mothbreeder641 because why not lol

[@LeChaunce]

The fact that they got Nathan Fillion playing Guy Gardner with his classic bowl haircut, and the fact that Krypto is a featured character was enough to sell this for me.

[@saahir18]

That casting sucks ass like hell. Guy Gardner deserves to be played by someone not old as dirt with one foot in the grave.

[@Ervtvn]

I think Nathan must have lost a bet with James to get put in that haircut…

[@wayneralph945]

Gardner was always my favourite Lantern because he was so deeply flawed.

[@obiwanjakobe9814]

[@saahir18]

@obiwanjakobe9814 such an original comment. Swallow harder

[@DamonCzanik]

More than ever, we need that unwavering sense of kindness, hope and compassion, that feeling that even with all the darkness, someone will do the right thing, just because it’s right. We need a hero who stands for the best in all of us-uncompromising in his ideals, always ready with a helping hand, and never losing faith in what we can achieve together. Zach Snyder never understood Superman. Superman is the symbol who lifts us up, inspires us, & never gives up on humanity. He brings light to the darkest corners, sets the standard for goodness, and reminds us that there’s something worth striving for: hope, love, kindness, and the unshakable belief that we can be better. We don't need another hero. We need a super hero.

[@PixelatedH2O]

This absolutely feels like what I want from a Superman movie. It seems like a pretty optimistic take on the character, which is something we really haven't seen much of in years. We even get a modern remix of the classic theme.

[@DoctorWhoBookClub]

Very excited by your Superman film series reaction announcement. Please don't forget about 1984's "Supergirl" film, as it's set in the same universe as the Christopher Reeve films and should be watched between Superman 3 & 4. Cheers!

[@DoctorWhoBookClub]

@ Hard disagree, it’s genuinely one of my favorite films. It’s campy, great cast, arch scene chewing villain, some of the best flying effects in the franchise, and has an amazing score - deliberately not mentioning the score’s composer, as that’s a spoiler & the TA will likely recognize the name.

[@Vulcanerd]

I’m more of a Batman person than a Superman person, but the Christopher Reeve Superman does have a special place in my heart and I hope this one brings the same kind of joy again.

[@ruufusdeleon1264]

Pumped! Psyched! Optimistic! I finally felt like I did in 1978 with Superman: The Movie, 2000 with X-Men, 2002 with Spider-Man, and 2008 with Ironman, and 2017 with Wonder Woman.

[@jefetters7182]

This looks exactly like All Star Superman by Frank Quietly, for those complaining about “the brightness,” look it up.

[@DarinRWagner]

Oh eyes are gonna roll when you watch some of those Superman movies...

[@targetaudience]

Looking forward to it!

[@damienkakoschke3099]

@@wolfofthewest8019 So you don't have to go looking for it, the CW Show was "Smallville". It's set when Clark is in highschool, but then it went for 10yrs, so he's about 30 when it finishes. As a result, Lois doesn't join the story until half way through the series. Ironically, they did this show because they weren't able to do a young Bruce Wayne show, which did happen, decades later, as "Gotham". But, yeah, hmm, be interesting what you think of Superman 3 & 4 (Superman 2 is great).

[@brettg274]

Interesting using the guitar riff of John Williams’ score.

[@VonPatzy]

“deathtrap” is a fantastic Christopher Reeve movie he did with Michael Caine (pretty much just the two of them make up the movie). He did it between SM2 and SM3 as a way to present a different side of himself to audiences since he was so beloved in the blue suit. Highly highly highly recommend - hell just watch the trailer - you’ll see.

[@Adam_Le-Roi_Davis.]

This looks like it could be good, but I've been disappointed before so, I'm not going to commit myself. I loved the original films with Christopher Reeves and the more recent ones with Henry Cavill etc. When you do watch them please remember to include "Supergirl" with Helen Slater too, it's set between Superman 3 and 4 of the original films.

[@melgranger6450]

Saw Mr Terrific, Krypto, and Hawkgirl. Seems to be a good trailer.

[@SDHero]

Look, I was in the bag for this, I pretty much love everything James Gunn has made, so make of that what you will, but I thought this looked great. It's a really interesting choice to have other heroes in the film, Superman has often existed in a vacuum, even Man of Steel went that direction, we'll see if that distracts in the film itself or not. I love the look of the film, I love the overall tone of the trailer, I'm very excited. Great to have this quick reaction to the trailer!

[@pauld6967]

With Hollywood wrecking so much in recent years I was filled with trepidation. Now, I am set to try and be the first in line at the theater!

[@targetaudience]

That’s how you know a trailer did its job!

[@pauld6967]

@targetaudience Yup. 🙂. I am looking forward to learning what Alex's reaction is. I'm not thrilled by this arrangement of John Williams' Superman Theme but I give them 9 points out of 10 for being faithful to what the vast majority of us accept as THE music for Superman.

[@jimgrant8960]

Agreed about the Lois scene. I am cautiously optimistic. My only concern is the suit and logo redesign. I just like the silver age logo and a spandex suit. Just explain it as a material not of Earth. I can get over it if the movie is good though. Here’s hoping.

[@stevethegreeeenhand]

It’s so funny the hate certain people give snyders version when they completely forget that in comics there is 100s of versions .

[@Spock4771]

It so funny the hate people give because this isn’t the snider era😅

[@stevethegreeeenhand]

@ then move on

[@m.e.3862]

Krypto, guy Gardner and Mr Terrific too!

[@MrDeathpilot]

OMG! I thought Mr. Terrific (1967) was just a distant childhood memory. I loved that show when I was 6.

[@ronchess8813]

John Williams orginal Superman score to electric guitar awesome

[@jjparavisini]

OMG… Even Krypto -the superdog- is in the movie! That trailer is awesome. My inner child is all giddy here!!!

[@jaygould2816]

I have always been a major Superman fan. Watched all the Chris Reeve movies in the theater when they came out (and was an extra in Superman 3). Even liked Superman Returns and a couple of the more recent ones (except for Supes vs Batman). I’m psyched to see your reactions to all of them here.

[@vincentsaia6545]

The hottest Lois Lane is Phyllis Coates who played the part in the first season of the 1950s TV series.

[@misti-step]

i recommend watching the 90s superman cartoon just in your free time! it has my FAVORITE version of lois

[@johnrhodes7812]

Holy crap! They're actually making a Superman movie!

[@prion42]

One time i went on a Batman binge and just watched... everything. I want to recommend Batman/Superman: Apocalypse. Apparently some people don't like it because it's based off a comic book story they don't like, but i thought the movie was dope.

[@guntherpiedmont4529]

Hey, not to change the subject... But when are you guys posting undiscovered country reaction?

[@TheChristopherHope]

We've got five more episodes of TNG (5.05, 5.06, 5.07, 5.08, 5.09) to come first on Patreon - which means ST:VI should hit Patreon the first week of the New Year - so a few weeks after that on KZbin.

[@guntherpiedmont4529]

@TheChristopherHope gotcha, thank you. For some reason I thought it was released in between seasons.

[@jerrychouinard9005]

There's a small role in this movie called TV Reporter (he may get a name) it is being played by Will Reeve, Christopher's youngest son. James Gunn asked him if he would be a part of the movie and he accepted. Apparently he is a sports anchor or reporter in real life?!

[@jcarterla]

I love Superman and Lois flying in the Cleveland Arcade

[@rustyshackleford4609]

I love the look of it. Always have to be skeptical and keep things in perspective. But i love the superman character and i hope this movie spread that love.

[@JonathanLlyr66]

Sadly I find this disappointing. Overdoing the brightness to try to differentiate it from the Snyder films makes it look made for TV. Superman is my favourite so I want to love this. They have about 7 months to change my mind.

[@maxshenkwrites]

I may actually give it a chance because you guys are giving it a chance. Your mojo is that powerful #justhereforTREK

[@damot69]

All I really hope for is a return of the “boy scout” version of Supes. The Snyder flicks really rubbed me the wrong way with how dark and almost self-centred they made superman. And gunn’s use of “minor” characters is always welcomed. Krypto and Guy Gardner?! I didn’t think I’d ever get to see them on the big screen! Cautiously optimistic with this one. Thanks for the reaction :)

[@scarfhs1]

Agreed, Batman is the one who should be supplying the darkness, we need Superman to be the light.

[@theendistheend123]

I'm excited for your reaction to "Superman returns." There is a lot of "hate" towards this movie, but I think its great. It was meant to be a series, if it had gotten a sequel i think people would have liked it more. Its kinda like "batman begins" WITHOUT "The Dark Knight" being made.

[@stevethegreeeenhand]

Nothing touches man of steel

[@capnpooter]

Yay thanks for doing this. My best friend won’t watch previews cuz they ruin the movie, but me I’ve always gotten excited for them! This looks to a great time!

[@bustedsim]

I'm always of the mindset of first teaser/trailer, and then that's it. Avoid the rest.

[@SWOLEX_1]

Damn, epic!

[@Jackanddino]

I hope you don’t watch the director’s cut of Superman II before just watching it the way we all saw it originally and for years and years before eventually seeing that on DVD.

[@TheChristopherHope]

Agreed. Donner Cut is definitely interesting and worth the watch for those curious about "what could have been", but the Lester Theatrical version is an actual movie. I think you need the context of seeing the Theatrical version to make sense of and appreciate the Donner Cut.

[@jasont2986]

Christopher Reeves defines Superman. All who came after and before fell short, though Henry Cavill gave it a good shot.

[@stopgeorge]

Meh. The dog scene is pretty silly, IMO. That's what stood out for me. Like the use of the original John Williams score.

[@travisboyle285]

Personally I love Krypto so I was smiling ear to ear. Lol

[@tomre2769]

This looks exciting, even though, it is weird to not see Cavill :-) Now, Reeve will always be my superman though. I am that old 😂 We had towels for capes back in the day, pretending to be super strong and fly.

[@azraelmacool3194]

Honestly, the only thing I was somewhat disappointed about was calling it Luthorcorp instead of Lexcorp, and that’s a nitpick. But Lex loves marketing himself, and a large part of that is going by his first name

[@RobGMun]

Sorry, it wasn;t bad, but it just didn't wow me. Looked a little CW for my tastes.

[@TheKayaklover]

You are soooooooooooo 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@bobmathis-friedman6742]

I can't wait!!! Big Kal-El fan. (Superman III is a step down, and IV is worse. I liked the Helen Slater Supergirl (set in the same continuity as the Reeve Superman films). I can't recommend Superman and Lois highly enough!

[@supermanprime6758]

I’m gonna guess there’s gonna be pushback on Rachel Girlboss But that’s what Lois is. She IS a girlboss. But one who often gets in over her head. So long as we see that aspect

[@prion42]

We need to see her fall of a building otherwise the movie doesn't count

Why on earth would "Superman: The Frickin' Movie" be only available only on Patreon? You! Tube! You! Tube! You! Tube!... 🤟😖

[@brokenrecord2941]

Based on this trailer i have as much interest as i thought i would in the movie, none. I am looking forward to your reactions to previous superman movies though.

[@CrankyGrandma]

That looked great. I’ve never been a huge Superman fan (as a kid it was captain America and fantastic four…back in the 1970s). But this looks good.

[@ccmastergad2892]

You gonna see even the first superman movie superman vs the molemen from 1951

[@suicunesolsan]

Superdog was an interesting choice. I rather like it. Basically, it takes some of the edge off the franchise and makes it a little more fun and approachable.

[@WEB_78O]

I wanted a kick ass powerful, emotional score. This teaser is awesome

[@jamesknight3070]

I'm Batman more than Superman, namely '89, but this looks promising.

[@vincentsaia6545]

What the hell is that on his chest? It sure ain't no "S." And adding strings to a John Williams motif is about as memorable as the disco version of the STAR WARS theme.

[@randallwong7196]

It's almost a silent movie. Nobody talks.

[@sbs3000]

On Superman The Movie: As you probably noticed, some of the things set up in this film (like Superman and Lois not kissing and everything with the villains on Krypton) wasn't paid off. Superman I was filmed back-to-back with Superman II and Richard Donner had hoped they'd form a complete story. Unfortunately, he had a falling out with the studio over financial decisions (such as the studio being unwilling to pay for Brando to be in the second film). That said, I'd recommend seeing the "Donner Cut" of Superman II. (IIRC, the Donner Cut was available to stream on Max.) It was released somewhat recently and uses footage Donner had shot, some test footage, and parts of the theatrical release to create as much of Donner's original story as possible. The theatrical release isn't bad by any means, I just prefer the more cohesive whole the Donner Cut creates with both parts.

[@targetaudience]

We will be watching both versions!

[@sbs3000]

@@targetaudience Awesome! Hope you enjoy them!

[@mr.generic]

Came here to say this. The Donner Cut is a much better movie, even though it is spliced together and pretty raw looking at times.

[@sbs3000]

@@mr.generic I agree. The improvements to the narrative more than outweigh the visual hiccups, IMHO.

The actor doesn't entirely look the part to me but it still looks like it could be good. Seems like it embraces the source material.

[@targetaudience]

I think he is a much better choice than casting a big well-known actor

[@c71score]

You may want to put the 1978 Superman on the regular channel, as it could draw in more viewers/subs. I joined for Quantum Leap, but stayed for Star Trek, and other may do the same with Superman.

[@greyinvader]

I'm dying to know who the main villain is. Not many can make Superman bleed. I think it's Brainiac.

[@SaffuillaKarman]

I watched Christopher Reeve fly in to rescue Lois Lane from the helicopter as an 8-year old and he's always been my Superman. Only Henry Cavill came close. Sadly, he was saddled with Snyder and then Gunn 'not-fire' him. Had Gunn kept him on, then I would be cautiously optimistic. None of the DC films have been worth anything, especially since it seems Warner / DC have no idea what to do with them. Superman has been rebooted 3 times in the last decade. So, Gunn's ideas for the new DCMU? Have me not interested at all. I'm glad you've enjoyed the teaser trailer and I don't begrudge anyone their optimism. Personally, I'm not interested at all to watch a discount-Henry Cavill, directed by Gunn, who, btw, claimed that The Flash was the best Superhero movie ever.

[@justmeiniowa]

Superman did not need to be re cast. Henry Cavill was perfect in the role. All they did for this was cast someone younger that looks exactly like Henry Cavill.

[@rmccombs66]

Are you going to put Superman The Movie on KZbin?

[@Harpadzo]

I mean.... So long as it's not another Origin story.

[@moonlander2821]

Initially didn't care at all about Gunn's reboot or whatever. But now I'll confess-- I'm in it for Krypto

[@spacemanspiff3052]

Christopher Reeve is totally my Superman, but I’ve never been as hopeful of a new take on Superman in film than James Gunn’s upcoming “Superman”. That said, credit where credit is due, Tom Welling was a great young Clark and I really liked Tyler Horchlin’s version on Superman on TV. Henry Cavill was the perfect image of Superman, but I wasn’t thrilled by the way his performance was used story-wise by Zack Snyder . . . just a dark and weirdly messianic interpretation (though I fault Bryan Singer for first doing the heavy imagery of Superman as kind of Christ-like in film).

[@Emburbujada]

I'm not a big fan of Gunn, but this looks pretty good. At least Clark Kent looks like Clark Kent, and Lex looks like Lex (I will never forgive Snyder for what he did to one my favourite villains). I does seem like maybe they're trying to do too much in just one movie, but we'll see.

[@SWOLEX_1]

Just here for Josh

[@Alexandrashepiro]

yeah, I am excited. But how many times do we have to have Superman done and redone, and rebooted the last 20 years!. It's getting tiring! keeping up with them all! Christopher Reeve will always be MY Superman. I grew up up on those films!! That whole main Cast of Reeve, Kidder, Hackman, Mcclure, Cooper, Brando....That's my forever super team!

[@MrDeathpilot]

if they didn't do multiple reboots we'd still be watching Michael Keaton's Batman. ...or maybe even Adam West's.

[@JMUDoc]

I had one foot out the door because not-Henry-Cavill, but the moment I saw that DOG? Yeah. This is not a serious film.

[@esteban280889]

The trailer does look great, but can any combo of Superman and Lois Lane match the chemistry of Christopher reeve and Margot Kidder?

[@XRos28]

It looks GREAT, but I HATE that S on Superman's suit. The music is a slow version of the John Williams' theme!

[@raymacdonaldcreations505]

Christopher Reeve is and always will be Superman but, I think Henry Cavill's "Man of Steel" comes in a very close 2nd!

[@daniellanctot6548]

*I wasn't really looking forward to this new Superman movie, but... The teaser did intrigue me:* *Love the possibility that Gunn made Superman less "invulnerable" than previous movie Supermans (It might still be just that Kryptonite is involved, but somehow the way that the trailer starts seems to indicated to me that Superman is more vulnerable in this one: And I am here for that because Superman being invulnerable is what makes the character boring; to me at least!). The shot of Superman protecting a kid from flying gas canisters and pushing her head down with his hand was **_sick AF!_** Hoult as Lex Luther looks good but being Lex is more about attitude; so I'll hold off judgement on that when we hear him speak... The one thing that doesn't work for me is : Krypto! 🤦‍♂ Stop making CGI animals in movies, people! It looks SO FAKE! He moves like a Looney Toons' cartoon dog and looks like it has no weight (Cosmo, in **_Guardians 3_** looked a lot better than that!). It's a teaser trailer, so maybe the CGI will look better in the finished product, but most of my beef with it has to do more with attitude, movements and interactions between the dog's paws and the snow look; and it just looks fake! (Go back to using REAL animals for movies, people: Just CGI facial features and maybe an arm/paws in a few shots that require specific movements that a trained animal could not deliver otherwise and your movies will be a lot better for it!)*

Yeah, not sure on this one yet The music makes this have a good feel playing off of John Williams theme, but is that just the trailer or will it be caked full of trash music. So far the actors look both as Clark and Superman don't sit right but if he is good in the role then that'll make a difference. Need to see more dialog to get a better idea. Also the giant monster battle feels like it should be in a Superman cartoon not big screen. I'm open to liking it so we'll see. Have always loved Superman so hopeful.

Should please the kiddies. And a broccoli-head Clark Kent? Initial impression: hard pass. The "original" Superman was Kirk Alyn (who cameos with original Lois in the Donner film) First feature film: Superman & the Mole Men with George Reeves. Chris Reeve was the third actor to play the role

[@bcn1gh7h4wk]

so, he'll be "crossed-out" man, instead of S-uperman? the crest is just a crossed-out shield... he looks like a hazard sign FFS. like, they could have used Brandon Routh's version, and it would have looked like an actual S.

I'm grateful, at least, that James Gunn apparently chose to not only trash the muted colors of the Superman suit, but is also bringing back his bright red-caped yellow insignia. Also, great seeing a glimpse of Hawkman(can't go wrong there). I'm also wondering if this new actor will resurrect the nuances of the Clark Kent alter-ego personality, which Christopher Reeve mastered so beautifully.

As soon as I saw Superman's blood, the RIDICULOUS dog in a cape, the overused (and awful) CGI as well as the unnneeded superheroes, it lost me right there.
