Brightburn trailer (James Gunn, superhero horror movie)

[Rickelodeon]

James produced this/apparently helped write it with some of his brothers/cousin

This looks awesome. Evil Superman in here

 

[BWoog]

Was this the one that folks thought might be Bloodborne?

visionary director lol

 

[Metallix87]

Actually looks pretty great.

 

[PSqueak]

isn't that the symbol from Berserk?

 

[Indy in the Fridge]

Looks interesting. Considering Gunn was responsible for Super, this definitely has his fingerprints over it.

 

[LewieP]

Gunn of Steel.

 

[kurahador]

Hot damn that looks good. Ripping that MoS trailer is a nice touch.

The visionary director who gave us crazy characters like a talking Batista or his own brother dressed as a space pirate.

 

[alosarjos]

Super (spooky) man?

 

[Brakke]

Looks p cool, I dig it.

isn't that the symbol from Berserk?

Yeah but both are basically just runes. Could easily be independent.

 

[BossAttack]

Lol, Evil Superman/Superboy.

I dig it.

 

[Strafer]

Now I want Man of Steel 2 directed by Gunn.

 

[metsallica]

Was this the one that folks thought might be Bloodborne?

Yes. Or Berserk. With the cancelled panel.

 

[HStallion]

Looks pretty good! Seems like its inspired by a lot of the evil "Superman" stories out there.

 

[Volimar]

So I wonder if he was sent to destroy/rule the Earth.

 

[Deleted member 3897]

Is that Roy from The Office?

 

[Deleted member 17658]

Irredeemable jr. I dig it...

 

[Blader]

Is this the movie Sony pulled from SDCC when Disney fired Gunn?

 

[mutantmagnet]

When I read Superhero horror movie I'm thinking of supers actually facing a horrific threat and still getting murdered instead of brawling.

An alternative campfire story about Superman? What a waste of a premise.

 

[RedHoodedOwl]

This is Ultraman's origin story.

 

[THEVOID]

Looks great!

 

[shaneo632]

You should get producing in the title. Seems a bit baity otherwise.

 

[rsfour]

Oh shit, this looks like a day one movie for me

 

[Mathieran]

That looks pretty good.

 

[Hypemaster]

Nah. It's going to be billed as a James Gunn movie.

LMAO

 

[Slightconfuse]

Roy from the office

Looks pretty solid,!

 

[Sweeney Swift]

This looks incredibly great and I can't wait to see it

 

[mjc]

Yawn. Overplays the nods to Man of Steel way, way too much.

 

[Disco]

PRODUCED and WRITTEN BY

Dude got me thinking he made a movie on the low for a second

 

[Dongs Macabre]

Kinda disappointed this wasn't Nameless.

 

[manchego obfuscator]

so this is literally just "what if Superman but evil," huh

 

[Angelus Errare]

Irredeemable

 

[laminated]

A guy dressed in a bat costume is going to try and stop him and die within seconds.

 

[Gravity Insanity]

We all know that boy's future.

 

[Daniel Westlake]

Sure I'm down for fucked up Superboy.

 

[DJwest]

This looks great actually

Lmao

 

[Visanideth]

This really, really looks like parody.

I'm down for a parody/what if movie, but the trailer doesn't feel very... imaginative. Superman is evil, the power of motherly love will stop him?

 

[More_Badass]

I love that it apes the Man of Steel trailer

 

[WarLox]

Roy just can't catch a break.

Not only that, but the look of it is basically Man of Steel and I think the font is pretty close the one used in the Man of Steel trailers.

EDIT:

It's a very similar font

 

[Meech]

This looks pretty dope!

 

[OrangeAtlas]

Are we taking bets on what this is going to end up being a secret sequel to?

 

[Strafer]

It's similar but not quiet.

 

[Anubis]

This looks like a parody to MoS.

 

[Detective Loki]

James Gunn to this is like Peter Jackson is to Mortal Engines

 

[Dalek]

This looks like a parody to MoS.

It does for sure, but also looks like it's own thing at the same time. I think it looks fantastic and I'm in for sure. Evil superman/superboy is such a fucked up scenario.

 

[Deleted member 28523]

Elizabeth Banks is gonna be a yikes from me.

Looks fine otherwise. Hopefully it doesn't spend too much time on the family dynamic and gets right to the absurdity.
