More Superman coming very soon but for now, here is a really fun interview I did with James Gunn and the cast of Creature Commandos: ua-cam.com/video/07MkpNM60YI/v-deo.html
Loved hearing the ins and outs. Gunn's saying all the right and reassuring things, feels even more like we're in for something special. I already like the trunks but hearing David's perspective on it is eye opening. Thanks Brandon 👍
I like the Game of Thrones comparison for his DC world, it's a grounded world where it's just accepted that some people have special powers and abilities.
Phenomenal questions from you and great answers from James Gunn. It's obvious that Gunn put a lot of care into this film and has a reverence for the character that makes me very excited. I was first introduced to superhero media through Smallville, so there's a special place in my heart for Superman. This is the most excited I've been for something Superman-related since I found Smallville all those years ago, and videos like this are a big reason why. Well done, BD!
Thanks for this video BD. I am a kid of the 80s and grew up on the Donner Superman before Man of Steel. I am really looking forward to this film; especially after your video. Thanks BD!
Thanks for this BD! The more James talks about the DCU the more excited I am! Feel like we’re going to experience a renaissance within this whole superhero era
Gunn made the right call! Siegel & Shuster got it right the first time. Superman is a public performing identity created by Clark Kent, the costume is athletic tights and a cape created by Clark inspired by wrestlers and athletes, the red trunks and yellow belt also give the suit color balance. I am so glad to see that Gunn understands this so well! Gunn is absolutely right too: Superman is naturally a scary character without trying. If you want to see what happens when a character like that stays hidden and uses his powers suddenly around regular people, read Philip Wylie's Gladiator, the inspiration for Superman. A costume is a similar concept to facial hair on guys: a big guy doesn't need facial hair because he is naturally imposing and would look scary with it, while a little guy is less so and the facial hair on him makes him look tougher. Superman's costume is to announce that he is here, to be noticed, that he is not hiding, the primary colors and shield with an S in it that he designed all indicate that he is a protector. Batman's costume is the opposite, where its purpose is to instil fear and mystery, to conceal. Very glad to see that Gunn understands the character! i.ibb.co/LZy36TX/IMG-20241217-142329-191.jpg i.ibb.co/cv34kfz/IMG-20241217-142326-679.jpg
Wow these answers are exactly what I want to hear. Sounds like Gunn is really going out of his comfort zone to try and fit the world of Superman instead of making Superman fit the James Gunn style.
Love hearing this iv not been this excited for a movie since I was little he’s my favourite character it’s about time we get a good superman movie in my lifetime
Great questions and coverage! So far, I'm really liking all of what I'm hearing. This is already one of my most anticipated movie of next year, and this just adds to my excitement.
If you get James on the Phase Hero show, Ask him BD about whether he has convinced Matt Reeves by now to have Battinson join the DCU. The Internet is going crazy and literally salivating over the idea of having these 2 as the World's Finest of the DCU! 🤩
Ok I was never the biggest fan of the trunks look, I don’t mind it but I don’t love it either. But hearing how David talks about it makes me change my mind and look forward to this movie even more!
Stoked for all the nerdy updates for Superman, FF, The MCU and everything in between from BD! This dude is always Informative, concise, and entertaining.
I’m more excited for Batman Brave & The Bold, but I do like what I’ve seen of this movie so far. Most of it anyway. Not a big fan of the suit but I do like the overall tone and the score sounds great.
*Lookin forward to BD and Phase Hero reactions to the teaser trailer comin Thursday!!* 🤙🏽⚡️🤟🏽⚡️👌🏽 Really liked the theme harkin back to classic Reeves Supe theme.
I have to wonder, what of this first DC Universe film fits into the first phase of the DCU, Gods & Monsters, in terms of who is the god(s) and monster(s) of this film? We have a ton of monsters in Creature Commandos, which kind of solidifies the point.
All Star Superman you say? Does this mean there's going to be almost no backgrounds in the movie, and everyone looks like they're made out of marshmallow?
Certainly it is utmost important for each movie to be good on its own. But if we really just got Superman and no larger connected universe, I would be very disappointed.
Supermans suit without the trunks also just makes the suit look bland and boring imo, the red trunks in the middle helps to break up the blue and make it so much more astheticaly pleasing, without them jus suit just feels like its missing something yk
Also how is this Superman who is supposed to be in a new universe tie into Peacemaker which had references to the old DCEU (Peacemaker Season 1 finale and post credit scene of Shazam 2)?
@@BrandonDavisBD I appreciate the answer BD. I am really not trying to be a hater or troll. Like I said I grew up with Superman in film. All I want as a superhero movie fan is that there is straightforward continuity; essentially, for the studios/writers not "stepping on their own toes" when they create these movies. I am wishing James Gunn the best with launching a new DC universe.
I like to think that when they reference «The Suici*de Squad» or «Peacemaker season one» from DCEU, it means that a Similar event happened in the DCU. Like when in «The Batman» they reference his origin story. So it means some Similar events as we saw in «Batman Begins» happened, but it didt necessarily play out the same way as depicted in the previous incarnation. Its more confuseing when both incarnations have the same actor
Ok I am trying to keep an open mind here but how are they going to re-introduce the character Rick Flagg in Peacemaker tv show when he was killed off by Peacemaker in the 2nd Suicide Squad movie?
Good video. I'm not saying you made this up, but I am a little sceptical about it. I saw a lot of Gunn comments here that I've never seen anywhere before even in his In person live videos with some of the major Hollywood sites and trades. So how does a 37K channel like yours get a one on one in depth interview with the argubly busiest guy in Hollywood right now.
So even though you made it sound like this was a one on one interview with just you and James Gunn. I've learned that you were actually one of a large group that was invited to the set back in June. This would explain why all the other channels are claiming they had an exclusive interview with Gunn and now are posting the exact same comments your talking about in this video. Now it all makes sense. I'm a big fan of honesty soooo!. @@BrandonDavisBD
Disaster flop incoming 💀 before the Gunn simp warriors accuse me of being Snyder bro… I’m just observing the amount of determined backlash and division of DC fans that really don’t want this movie compared to the ones that do… the only reason why marvel is successful is because everybody loves it as unity.. that’s the only reason why GOTG was successful… but ever since Gunn came over to DC, his numbers have been lower than expected despite the generic high reviews since the man only knows how to make the same exact film over and over and over again … and taking about the soundtrack already… it sounds super lazy and shy.. like it’s ashamed of being either both Willams or Zimmer with no confidence in itself yet since it can’t be anything original
As a unity? You’re kidding right? The glaze that y’all have for the MCU is UNMATCHED. “Disaster flop incoming” when it’s DC related but nothing but praise for Marvel though? YOU are the very division in DC you just spoke on. I bet if this were Batman you’d be saying a lot of happy things. Because that’s the problem, ya’ll HATE on what’s cool to hate ie Superman and like what’s cool to like ie Batman. You follow popular opinion ie MCU and only adhere to the majority narrative of the masses. And how is it lazy to mend the literal theme song of John Williams? The dude made that theme song for SUPERMAN. Not for Christopher Reeve (Love the guy) but the song was made for the character SUPERMAN. Not the character Christopher Reeve. That was a ridiculously retarted ahh take. And as for the Hans Zimmer blend, that was exactly what he should do. He added in his own form with the humming. Seriously. I can tell just by those statements alone, you can’t think for yourself. How do I know? Because I seen a thousand other comments stating the same exact things about the music as you did. So you didn’t even form that opinion on your own, you just saw what everyone else said and copy and pasted. Pathetic head ahh. Talk about “ORIGINAL” says YOU the random nobody on UA-cam that regurgitated the same garbage everyone else regurgitated. Sounds like YOU are the lazy one. And MANY DC fans wanted a true to heart Superman film. Which this is going to be. So speaking on who wanted it and who didn’t is just you creating filler for no reason at all. You mention Marvel and unity sounds like you’re a MCU fanboy. Not even Marvel but MCU, meaning all your knowledge comes from the Infinity Saga MOVIES. Not comics. You’re just a casual who needs to shut the f u c k up. Go watch Disney+ reruns on all your MCU woke propaganda BS that ONLY PEOPLE LIKE YOU WOULD LOVE. Do us all a favor and shut the f u c k up.
More Superman coming very soon but for now, here is a really fun interview I did with James Gunn and the cast of Creature Commandos: ua-cam.com/video/07MkpNM60YI/v-deo.html
The facts that David understands why the trunks are needed for Superman makes me even more pumped to see him
see im right there with you on that!
That's something I never even considered before, the fact that he's dressed like a wrestler makes him more approachable to people
Being a comic book and pro wrestling, I lile this explanation! 👍🏼💯
Dude you are an embarrasment. A corporate bootlicker shill.@@BrandonDavisBD
Theirs no reason for anyone to have trunks that’ll help them in a powerless situation… enjoy watching diaper man
Good piece. Told me enough without saying more than I heard or knew already. Excited for the trailer teaser to come and the movie itself.
appreciate you my friend! proud of how this one came out!
I was excited for Superman already..
But you made me even more excited! Great video!!
Thanks Tessa!!!
Love that the world already has hero’s in it. Something different
Same
Loved hearing the ins and outs. Gunn's saying all the right and reassuring things, feels even more like we're in for something special. I already like the trunks but hearing David's perspective on it is eye opening. Thanks Brandon 👍
totally agree - each update about this movie is getting me more excited.
I like what I'm hearing. Cautiously optimistic
I like the Game of Thrones comparison for his DC world, it's a grounded world where it's just accepted that some people have special powers and abilities.
Yeah, all these locations and characters and it feeling so lived in is gonna be awesome.

I'm so so so so excited for this superman

Don't forget Daredevil: Born Again 😍
Amazing interview!!!! I'm even more excited now!!!
Good job. Insightful.
Appreciate that!
Good update, subscribed.
Thank you so much! I was worried how this would perform without the interview being on camera. Thrilled to see a positive response. Thanks.
I’m more excited for Batman Brave & The Bold, but I do like what I’ve seen of this movie so far. Most of it anyway. Not a big fan of the suit but I do like the overall tone and the score sounds great.
More DC content please! So much cool stuff coming from the DCU
Last time i was so excited for a film was Force awakens.
All of this has me so excited. TBH I was cautiously optimistic now im fully excited
7 more months!!
New to the channel and thank your for doing a great job on all the things you’re reporting on without any spoilers
hey i appreciate you!
Really enlightening commentary Brandon. How did you manage to get on set?
Are you going to record your reaction to the trailer?
we will be live 10 minutes after the trailer launches to react and talk about some insights!
@@BrandonDavisBDwe will be there!
I think the middle of the action just means the movie wont cover any origin story though I'd be happy to have it begin with an action scene
Great video
*Lookin forward to BD and Phase Hero reactions to the teaser trailer comin Thursday!!*
🤙🏽⚡️🤟🏽⚡️👌🏽
Really liked the theme harkin back to classic Reeves Supe theme.
It’s crazy how pretty much everything you said in this video is already been quoted and used as postings on other superhero comic book accounts on X
My work here is done!
glad we finally addressed the mustache
They are releasing the trailer the same day when Creature Commandos episode 4 drops and we get hint of that future vision. So it maybe a bit connected
i dont think it will be - but Creature Commandos Ep. 4 is by far the best episode of the series in my opinion. it’s a tough one emotionally
Interesting still not a fan of the trunks tho but the info looks promising for the *Movie*
Hey BD, how can i get this quotes especially one on superman and Lois ' complicated relationship
I have to wonder, what of this first DC Universe film fits into the first phase of the DCU, Gods & Monsters, in terms of who is the god(s) and monster(s) of this film? We have a ton of monsters in Creature Commandos, which kind of solidifies the point.
Leave all those story bro we just want to know the valiant 😂
great video
All Star Superman you say? Does this mean there's going to be almost no backgrounds in the movie, and everyone looks like they're made out of marshmallow?
God I need the Superman now!!
Did they give any non-Superman updates during the press event?
Was Sean Gunn there in a motion capture suit ready to step in for anyone who went down?
Certainly it is utmost important for each movie to be good on its own. But if we really just got Superman and no larger connected universe, I would be very disappointed.
I do also hope there is stuff referencing what will come in future titles, hard to imagine there won’t be even if it’s not the focus
I feel people are over hyped and probably already made their mind up regardless how good or bad this is
This is amazing
Supermans suit without the trunks also just makes the suit look bland and boring imo, the red trunks in the middle helps to break up the blue and make it so much more astheticaly pleasing, without them jus suit just feels like its missing something yk
Also how is this Superman who is supposed to be in a new universe tie into Peacemaker which had references to the old DCEU (Peacemaker Season 1 finale and post credit scene of Shazam 2)?
James said in one of his Creature Commandos interviews (i dont remember who with) that Peacemaker Season 2 will address that
@@BrandonDavisBD I appreciate the answer BD. I am really not trying to be a hater or troll. Like I said I grew up with Superman in film.

Like when in «The Batman» they reference his origin story. So it means some Similar events as we saw in «Batman Begins» happened, but it didt necessarily play out the same way as depicted in the previous incarnation.
Its more confuseing when both incarnations have the same actor
that set photo doesn't prove anything
so r zey gng to continue building their universe regardless of the success of Superman?
Does Lois know Clark is Superman though? That's what I'm wondering.
Hard to say. I think so.
I think it would be more magical personally if Lois took time during the movie doing the detective work trying to find out who he actually is.
I am CATIOUS....he might do a bait and switch bs
Love the hype and energy surrounding this movie . Lex already hating Superman sounds amazing as their rivalry is just getting started
In Gunn I trust, he hasn't let me down yet. In following this movie closely. I have no reason not to trust him.
I get that but I hope we get different suites in the future without the trunks
Why? A leotard ain’t a huge upgrade.
@ the trunks just isn’t for me, I’ve read a lot of comics with supes and I always preferred the look without trunks that’s just me tho
Ok I am trying to keep an open mind here but how are they going to re-introduce the character Rick Flagg in Peacemaker tv show when he was killed off by Peacemaker in the 2nd Suicide Squad movie?
it's not the same Rick Flag. Frank Grillo is playing Rick Flag Sr., the father of Joel Kinnaman's Rick Flag cahracter
@@BrandonDavisBD ok thanks for clarifying BD.
Naa I’ll pass on this one
They need to bring back Zack Synder
No.
@ Yeahh lol
PEACEMAKER WAS SHIT TO ME...
