Superman in the New DC Movie Intro

[Jon-El]

Went to see WW today. Might not be that big a deal but it made me happy to see Superman back center stage in the new DC movie intro.

Reminds me of the old JL/JLU intros a lot

[Atomic Man]

I thought those were the Snyderverse versions for a bit, then I realized they're the Rebirth versions. Interesting. I'd like to believe this indicates a "Rebirth" of the Snyderverse into a proper DC cinematic adaptation, but that ship has long sailed.

But.....but....what about Batman?!!! What will we tell Scott Snyder/Bruce Timm/Frank Miller?

I thought this was a cool intro too. Superman is the first hero you see flipping by in the animation and then he's featured front and center in the group shot. I though this little opening to the Wonder Woman movie was a cool touch.

The first hero who is featured in the intro is Batman.

Well, Aquaman has the Momoa hair so who knows

Notice how Superman is the most standout figure in that image? Pretty sure WB has NOT changed their plans to build the DCEU around him.

I just realized the four featured characters in the centre are the Super Friends (minus Robin, Wendy, Marvin, Wonder Dog, Jayna, Zan and Gleek).

They never planned to build the "DCEU" around Superman, because they've never made an actual Superman movie. Snyder and Goiter made a movie with their own deconstructed version of the character; this "NotSoSuperman" is the flimsy foundation upon which the Snyderverse is built.

You can say you don't like the version, but he is Superman.

Exactly. And that version of him is dead and will likely come back in a form that most Superman fans will be comfortable with...hopefully.

I can say whatever I want to say, and what I specifically say is that he is NOT Superman. Goiter knew that making Jonathan Kent a fear-mongering coward was the way to deconstruct Superman. Once this was done, Goiter and Snyder were able to create a new character that may look somewhat like Superman and even share names, locations, and a few other similarities. He is, however, not Superman. He's something else, a pale imitation made in the image of two men who made clear their disdain and hatred of Superman from the first moment they took on the project.

If they would flip the script for anyone it would only be Wonder Woman considering the film's response. They definitely won't be building it around Batman though, not now. He's kinda a mess. They screwed up and painted themselves into a corner by making him so old.

Yep, and it's not like the whole world could have seen that problem coming or anything.
