An Extended First Look At ‘The Death Of Superman’ Animated Movie (Trailer)
I remember buying my brother TWO copies of the ‘Death Of Superman’ bound volume comic when it came out decades ago. Not because I was thinking “collectors’ item… ka-CHING!” Nah, it was because I knew we’d be wearing that thang out reading it; and it was prudent to keep one ‘in the clip’ as a backup.
Epic story. Supes went out the one way he was supposed to… not withering from waves from a green glowing space rock… but from defending the earth, his home (Metropolis) from Doomsday… and falling dead on the battlefield with HONOR. The Super Scout and The Monster BEAT THE F**K OUT OF EACH OTHER!! A fight to the death!
And now DC is doing a movie about it… again. Remembering that they kind of screwed the Krypto with the Doomsday angle in the bloated Batman Vs. Superman movie they did, I’m just saying, “DC, do NOT screw this up!!”

Watch The Full Comic-Con “Justice League” Sneak Peek Teaser (Trailer)
Oh snap! I just caught something around 1:30… before dude said “no Kryptonians”… he said “no LANTERNS!” Think they might try to make up for that Green Lantern goof-up a few flops back? Maybe.
Or maybe let The CW add it to their #DareToDefy line-up. The John Stewart kick-azz Marine Green Lantern (who dated Vixen, another #DareToDefy character on DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow already, on the Justice League Unlimited cartoon series back in the day). And maybe that story ties into the new Black Lightning series arc. Just an awesome idea.
Okay, so above is the 4+ minute trailer folks saw at SDCC for the upcoming “Justice League” movie. Here’s to hoping that the best part of this thing ain’t the trailers… again.

See The “Black Lightning” Series Join The Arrowverse And Learn ‘Where Heroes Are Born’ (Trailer)
Nice work done for San Diego Comic Con 2017 a while back. Sure they could have just delivered a trailer. By why not beef it up and give the people SO much more. Like an ‘Arrowverse’ lead-in (with all the DC TV heroes on The CW)… THEN hit ’em with the “Black Lightning” in there!

Justice League (Trailer #2)
Haaa! Batman threw out that line from “Kick Ass” on him: His power is that he is ‘rich as sh!t.’
Hey, in pulling together a band of superheroes to defend the Earth against an alien threat, that has gotta help, though. Because… better snacks and stuff, right? But, of course, this coming “Justice League” movie is the next all-in gamble for DC to balance some huge L’s (Green Lantern, and lackluster Batman vs. Superman, looking at y’all). So an epic trailer that hints at a more epic movie-watching experience is a must.
Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes – Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash – it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Okay. This will do. Enjoy the trailer. Salivate while you wait on the November big screen debut.
Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice (Final Trailer)
Know how when you want something really REALLY bad, and it’s kept from you by folks teasing you with it constantly, and your excitement builds to explosive levels and gets vented as frustration? No? Maybe? Yeah, you do. Do you think with ALL THE DAMN trailers DC is dropping for “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” that we’re getting like that?
Yeah, you do.
We are there! So, DC, knock it off with all the teaser trailers. Really. How many is enough? Oh… this is the final one? Well, it BETTER be good (don’t worry it is)!
New “Batman Vs. Superman” Preview features Wonder Woman (Trailer)

Supergirl (Series Trailer)
Add another comic-brought-to-life to your channel-surfing agenda. CBS has green-lit the “Supergirl” television series for this Fall. DC Comics character Supergirl is Superman’s cousin, Kara Zor-El. On the show she’ll be challenged mastering her superhuman abilities and navigating the day-to-day world. Not too groundbreaking in that regard, but looking at the 6+ minute trailer above, CBS is sinking major chips into the hero party. So there better be a huge crowd (e.g. TV audience) tuning in to see the show. Heard good things about the other comic-based shows – The Flash and [Green] Arrow on The CW, even Daredevil on Netflix. However, Supergirl has to be much bigger; (at least) be on par with Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – on rival major broadcast network ABC. We will see. But for now… see the trailer.
(And before someone brings up Gotham on Fox… Sure, it’s based on DC’s Batman; but that’s a pre-Batman story. Doesn’t count yet.)
Batman v. Superman: The Dawn Of Justice (Teaser Trailer)
It appears from the title alone that this upcoming Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice film is just the beginning of DC Comics attempts to bring the ‘Justice League’ all together on the big screen. The title alone gives you the hint because “Dawn Of Justice”…. suggests…. “Dawn Of The Justice League’ with Aquaman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, & more heroes. Right now DC Comics is celebrating their 75th anniversary & all these films are kicking off at the right time for them. The ‘Justice League’ movie is rumored to come in 2017. Maybe I’m just getting ahead of myself, but I don’t believe I’m too far off with that opinion. In the meantime, just sit patiently until April 20, 2016 for when this new blockbuster ‘Batman Vs. Superman: The Dawn Of Justice’ film hits theaters.
Man Of Steel (Film Trailer)
Check out the second trailer to the reboot of the Superman franchise. These trailers look visually stunning but I hope the movie is good when it hits theaters June 14th.
Man Of Steel (Film Trailer)
“Henry Cavill plays Superman in director Zack Snyder’s “Man of Steel.” The film also stars Amy Adams as Daily Planet journalist Lois Lane, and Laurence Fishburne as her editor-in-chief, Perry White. Starring as Clark Kent’s adoptive parents, Martha and Jonathan Kent, are Diane Lane and Kevin Costner.
Squaring off against the superhero are two other surviving Kryptonians, the villainous General Zod, played by Michael Shannon, and Faora, Zod’s evil partner, played by Antje Traue. Also from Superman’s native Krypton are Lara Lor-Van, Superman’s mother, played by Ayelet Zurer, and Superman’s father, Jor-El, portrayed by Russell Crowe. Rounding out the cast are Harry Lennix as U.S. military man General Swanwick, as well as Christopher Meloni as Colonel Hardy.” – DC Comics

Green Lantern Movie Sneak Preview Footage (Video)
Starring Ryan Reynolds as ‘Green Lantern’ but I’m also surprised to see that Angela Bassett has a role in the upcoming 3D film due in theaters June 17th. It would be a definite good look if the creators found a way to get ‘DJ Green Lantern’ involved with the film in some way.
