Man of Steel had an amazing first trailer that included the music from the crying scene in Fellowship of the Ring after Gandalf falls to the Balrog.

I think Man of Steel is a better movie than it gets credit for, but the trailer is legit great.

Man of Steel trailer 3 is still tops for me, I posted it in this thread. When MoS was released I was so delighted, but after the initial awe wore off, in hindsight it was a disappointing Superman movie for many reasons (mostly the hope that Supes embodies). The most recent Superman movie by Gunn is the Superman movie I’ve wanted every since the original Superman the Movie with Reeve.

I hear you, but weirdly enough I feel the opposite! I do get that the hope and optimism part was severely lacking in MoS, and it’s more present in Gunn’s new movie. But I kinda think of Superman as the wooden goodie-two-shoes of the JLU animated series, and to me Henry Cavill did that better than David Corenswet did. I feel like the Superman from Gunn’s movie is kinda underpowered and a little too “normal quirky funny nerd guy” rather than the straight-edge force of nature I feel like JLU Superman is. I feel like MoS almost got that, but then injected a bunch of sadness and desaturation which brought it down a bit
