There’s more evidence that the comic book film domination of Hollywood is continuing to go from strength to strength. Reason being, we have a trailer for DC Comics’ Justice League, a movie that we can all guess will have sequel upon sequel to follow should this one do well at the box office. With Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Ben Affleck as Batman and Jason Momoa playing Aquaman, even though I’m not the biggest fan of comic book movies by this point, I find myself a little curious…
I’m mostly interested because I want to see how Justice League will differ from Marvel Studios’ Avengers. As far as I can see, both films are about super heroes coming together to save humanity. I’d love to be pleasantly surprised by this movie’s execution.
As for my thoughts on the above teaser trailer, it didn’t have me slapping the wall with excitement and yelping with joy as I’m known to do when blessed with a thrilling tease of a trailer. Likely controversial, but I find this one just OK.
I’ll of course wait and see before daring to declare something along the lines of ‘Marvel does it better’.
