It surprisingly didn't make me want to slam my head against my desk. At the very least, the trailer appears to fulfill the previously stated promise that it'll be much more lighthearted than previous DC flicks, and they don't appear to have gone full New52 with him. Not getting my hopes up, though, since trailers and final movies can differ quite drastically (whether one or the other is good, or they both suck for different reasons). But...maybe it won't suck.

That.. actually looks FUN. A DC movie that's having FUN. I'm cautiously optimistic.

I'm OK with the sort of "Elf" / "Big" tone they're going for, but that muscle suit on Zachary Levi is distractingly bad.
Marvel's lawyers would like a word with you.....
Actually, now that WB has dropped three big trailers, I expect a response from Marvel within the week in the form of a Captain Marvel teaser.

Actually I find the suit perfect. It's an idealize version what a kid thinks a muscular man looks like, as opposed to a real one. It's... Charming really.

Saw this tonight. In the word of a friend from my youth "It's good, go see it." Firmly set within the DCEU but not infected by the dark, over-serious pall (even though the first 15 minutes or so are pretty dark and slow). It's plenty fun and engaging. Easily in my personal top 2 of the DCEU films. Full disclosure, I didn't like Aquaman as much as I probably should have, so take that for what it's worth. Plenty of nods and inclusions from Captain Marvel's history. Sure, you're never going to include everything in the first movie...but there were two noticeable exclusions that I noticed.

Advanced reviews have been excellent. I'm personally hoping to see a talking tiger at some point.

If it's anything like Johns' story (and given some images of movie figures, that's what it's borrowing heavily from), at best he'll go Battle Cat.
Then again, this is a lighter movie, reportedly more positive and upbeat, so...maybe Tawny will get Tawky. (Weirdly enough, my typo-indicator has no problem with either of those words.)
