Yeah, having a big robot bug on my back is a great way to get dates as a teenager. Saw the cartoons, pretty standard transforming suit. Can turn into a crock pot, shoot rays, fly around. So what.
Personally, I'm a Beetle fan and am looking forward to this movie, but I don't think this trailer was very well made. It was confusing, didn't give enough information to new viewers, and really didn't do much to play to Jaime's strengths. I watched it with my mom, who doesn't know anything about BB and only has surface knowledge of superhero stuff, and she was super confused.
I hope that trailer 2 is better. I think they really need to emphasize Jaime's themes of family, cultural heritage, and legacy (especially since, with the inclusion of the Bug and the previous Beetles' outfits, they are definitely going to acknowledge it.)
Bats has a long fan base that would support his movies. Does BB? Not a major player across the years. Ant Man, Shazam, Morbius are a warning shot - delving into C level characters - FLOP
I was about to say the same thing about Ant-Man and lets not forget that the lack of several key international markets are also hurting that films overall B.O. for the recent installment.
A character doesn't get 2 sequels and be included in discussions about said character being a Flop. Laughable example including Ant-Man in that list. Also, Shazam is not C-list and had an initial successful outing.
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" - Optimus Prime
Why are they seen as flops in the continuation of the DC and Marvel movie plans? They attracted initial viewership as part of those plans which seem now to have flopped. Shazam, ok - a B list character in the comics. To the general public? Same with BB - unless the story is great, it's Black Adam time!
I consider Blue Beetle a third-rate comic book character regardless of whoever wears the suit.
But I will have my high hopes for this new movie.
