I wasn’t big on Gunn’s superman. There’s elements I liked but wasn’t enough but rewatched it this week ready for SuperGirl and I ended up loving it.

I think the SuperGirl trailers look great but I’m hearing bad things. I’ll make my own mind up once I seen it

Similar thing happened with me. Gunns Superman is basically meant as a mindless popcorn film, I think Gunn even said that 'fast food' films had their place in cinema, specifically referring to Superman. If you take it at that level it's a lot of fun. Haven't heard great things about Supergirl though...

I’m not a huge superman fan anyway. I’ve always been batman through and through with DC but Man of Steel touched my heart. I fukin love that film. Love Cavill as supes. But I do praise Gunn for bringing the more wackier parts of comic books and making it work on film like with the Guardians trilogy, suicide squad (which all 4 of those I adore) and now Superman.

He does go there with the mental little characters and stuff like that and for me it works. Not many directors go there or can handle the bizarre but I think Gunn does handle the wackiness well. But yeah Supergirl isn’t sounding great at the moment. But also I don’t know if this is the bitter hate reviews because of that group of YouTubers that want it to fail or if it’s just bad. I think the clips I’ve seen look great personally. So we’ll see. Regardless of how bad it is I’m going to own a Manta copy anyway and most likely a WWA to go on my superhero/ comic book film shelf
