Justice League Teaser Breakdown: 20 Things You Need To See
Holy sh*t, it looks good.
Just when you thought it was safe to assume that Warner Bros probably just wanted Justice League out of the way to start afresh in a post-Zack Snyder world, he goes and pulls some brilliant footage out of his hat.
The director appeared at Comic Con to unveil the first trailer, unveiling first looks at The Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman in Justice League footage. And by God it looks great.
There's the right blend of effects, comedy, charisma and pulpiness and there's no sign yet of the reductive grim tone that transformed Batman v Superman from comic book movie into something lacking an essential entertainment drive and spirit.
It's time to get back on the hype train, both DC and Marvel fans alike. Because this genuinely looks very special, with both The Flash and Aquaman stealing the show.

The people "harbouring him" after he's arrived on the King Tide don't look entirely keen on giving him up to Bruce Wayne, who speaks in voice over...
If anything, they look positively hostile.
Bruce actually looks like he's lost a bit of weight, and the facial hair implies he's been on this mission to find his new warrior team-mates relentlessly...
