Based on the trailers, which 2011 superhero film makes you want to watch it the most?

[TradePaperbackTraitor]

So you can't predict everything by a trailer but they can give you a good idea of what you can expect. We have all 4 trailers out now for the big 2011 Marvel/DC Superhero films. Which one looks to be the better film? Which one has you the most excited to see the finished product?

Thor

Green Lantern

Captain America

X-Men: First Class

[TradePaperbackTraitor]

I know it's easy to go with Captain America because the trailer was just released and is freshest in my mind, but THIS is the trailer I've been waiting for. I like all the trailers, but this is the one that really makes me get excited. I just feel like they've taken the material the most serious, given it the best direction and the trailer also has the best music of all the four films. I would still like to see more action scenes and how they translate Steve Rogers super human skills and shield throwing into the film but I really like how they've gone all in on the origin story because I feel that's what usually makes the best superhero films. Watching the trailer makes me realize that Captain America probably has the best most universal origin story of the 4 films up for a 2011 release. His origin is very Spiderman-esque. The average nerdy kid turned into a national icon and while I had doubts at first about the casting choice, Chris Evans has pretty much eliminated all of them. I love watching the Captain America trailer over and over. I don't know about its international totals with the American theme, but I predict this film will gross the most of all 4 in the U.S.

[rasx]

I love the X-Men and can't wait to see their new movie. But trailer wise the Thor trailer is just captivating, I got goosebumps seeing the Destroyer in action.:biggrin:

[StoneGold]

Just from the trailers, X-Men is the biggest question mark. It possibly has the most potential, but that can also cut the other way.

The Cap trailer is probably just the best 1:30 mini movie of the bunch. It tells its story, it gets you hyped, it still leaves a lot left on the table considering you barely even see the Red Skull... it's just a well edited trailer.

Thor, it really depends on which trailer you're talking about. Some are better than others, they goof around with the hero a little bit which works not as well when you're dealing with a minute or so of content.

And Green Lantern trailer starts with Ryan Reynolds in his underwear. It's not a trailer for a superhero movie, it's a trailer for a spoof. Whether or not the movie is any good, it's a horrible trailer.

Watching the second Thor trailer, even though he's an Aussie, I wonder about that accent. Feels a little like the Kevin Costner Robin Hood. LOL Sometimes he's thicker on the British accent, sometimes not so much. I probably love Thor the most of all the 4 big characters or teams brought to the big screen this year but the trailers just don't have me feeling it yet although I'll definitely be there the first day. I know they're going with his origin as a depowered mortal cast out of Asgard but I hope they give him some Superman abilities. Besides the cool mythology around the character, that's what I feel makes him most unique. He's about as close to Supes as you get with Marvel heroes. Watching the trailers makes me realize he has the least to work with for a film. I like how they finally show some comedy bits in the second trailer because Thor will probably be the hardest of the four to recruit the mainstream movie goer. Cap has a universal American theme. Green Lantern has the flyboy mainstream appeal. X-Men have a box office base and history to go with. Thor has the least universal themes and probably the least well known of all four characters. I'm sure it will EASILY surpass $100 million but I think Captain America or Green Lantern are the only ones that have a chance of surprising everyone with Iron Man box office numbers. ALL of these Marvel trailers though do make me want to see the first Avengers trailers and the interaction between the heroes. At least Hemsworth is going to look like a giant next to Cap and Iron Man which I feel is appropriate.

[Sighphi]

The X-men one looks to be the most interesting.

[StoneGold]

The X-men one looks to be the most interesting.

It's definitely the one that stands out the most. Not necessarily the best one, but the one that makes me think this could be a different kind of superhero movie. Whereas the other three all look like relatively standard superhero fare in one way or another.

[BeastieRunner]

Thor
Cap
Green Travesty
X-men

While 1 & 2 are too close to call at this moment ... 3 & 4 scrape the bottom hard.

[lasraik]

I'm looking for a None of the Above option, sad to say.

None of them really excite me. I'm most hopeful for the Green Lantern movie but Ryan Reynolds is the same character and personality in every movie he's in. Maybe it will fit Hal Jordan but it looks a little cheesy.

If I had to choose from this list now I'd say XMen First Class. Having Rose Byrne in the movie is a plus.

[dupersuper]

In order of my excitement:
Thor
Green Lantern
Captain America
Suckerpunch
X-Men 1st Class

Did I miss any?

[Ned McDodd]

at the moment, i have no "must see" feeling with any of these movies, but Cap interests me the most so far. Also Thor is ok. But definitely won't see X-men.

[FIFTY-TWO (52)]

Green Lantern is the one I'm looking forward to most, because so little is known about its actual scope.
I feel like Thor may be a little too familiar by the time it hits theaters, but I'll see it nonetheless.
I'm not all that sold on Captain America, but that's probably because I'm not into the character.

[Benel Germosen]

Thor. Pretty one the only one I'll see in the theater.

[carabas]

1) Thor.
2) Green Lantern.

If we're considering just the trailers I would have zero interest in the other two. The Cap trailer pretty much managed to kill my considerable excitement for the film almost completely. It seems just so hokey.

[skullboy]

Green Lantern and Capt America are my top two. I'm very unsure about Thor with the whole becoming a mortal thing on his debut film and I won't bother with X-Men First Class. Not a Bryan Singer fan and didn't like the trailer.

[DarkWarriorBlake]

Cap and Thor both equally really.

X-Men looks stupid and just an attempt to cling onto the rights.

Green Lantern is going to bomb so ridiculously hard. Not Cutthroat Island bad but still, it's going to be embarrassing.

[the goddamn batman]

none of them, really.
I guess Cap...

[thedragonreborn]

Thor and Cap look to be decent films especially considering they'll set up next years Avengers film. I'm still on the fence about X-Men First Class, mostly because I hate the 60's setting and think it makes no sense in the overall continuity of the other films. I mean doesn't that mean Magneto and Xavier have to be in their 70's or 80's when the first movie takes place?

I love Gree Lantern. I've been reading the character for years. I didn't think Ryan Reynolds was a good choice to play Hal, but was willing to give him a chance. Then I saw the trailer and I wanted to cry it looks so horribly bad. I mean we're talking Spiderman 3 or X-Men 3 bad. Maybe even Roger Corman Fantastic Four bad (without the redeeming camp quality either). I hope that it bombs, and they have to replace Hal in the next movie with someone that can actually act. Oh and despite all the advances made in special effects over the years, how bad does the cgi look? You can say all you want that a trailer isn't the actual movie, but the trailer is supposed to be the little bit that'll suck you in and this trailer has killed my hopes that Green Lantern will be any good.

[DarkWarriorBlake]

none of them, really.
I guess Cap...

Cap should be a given purely because it has Hugo Weaving playing a villain in it.

And he has some 'marginal' successful history at doing that.

It was never a good idea to give them CGI costumes because that was always going to eat up a ridiculous amount of both time and money that could've been better sense elsewhere.

[carabas]

I hope that it bombs, and they have to replace Hal in the next movie with someone that can actually act.Eh, what makes you think there's going to be a next movie if the first one bombs? And what makes you think 99% of the target audience is even remotely familiar with Hal Jordan and will object to the casting?


Oh and despite all the advances made in special effects over the years, how bad does the cgi look?Looked pretty great from where I was standing.

[GRANT!]

Cap all the way. Feels the most like a super hero movie.

[DonC]

I'm on the None of the Above Bus right now. Green Lantern is the only one of the four I really have an interest in and that trailer was just straight-up bad. I mean, this Nathan Fillion fan-made trailer was better than what we got.

Because there's more Marvel choices. I'm a diehard DC fanboy who'll proudly tell that to any Marvel fan.

[Failure Lad]

Cap.

I wish DC would do as good as a job w/ it's live action films as it does w/ it's animated features.....w/ the exception of Batman, most of them are horrible, and tbh, GL looks like crap...cool cgi and cameos doesn't nec make a good film, imo.

Xmen for all its copyrght clinging faults still has a far more appealing trailr and cast that Ryan Reynolds in a CG suit saying I KNOW RIGHT

that said Im going With Cap and then then THor

[comicboy53]

The movie could be the worst ever but that capt America trailer was so good:biggrin:

[carabas]

It's probably a barely even noticeable split-second in the actual film, but to end an otherwise (IMO) excellent trailer on that crappy line, they probably just pissed away 20+% of their box ofice right there.

[DarkWarriorBlake]

Theres still time for the CG to improve but I don't think anyone can say with a straight face that what they showed in the trailer is something that should be appearing in promotion material for a film with a $150 million budget.

It looked bad, it looks cheap and the lack of buzz its getting makes me think they know they have aclunker on their hands and are distancing themselves from it.

[Weapon Ick]

Based purely on the trailers, I would be more interested in Captain America. Based on all the other info I've read I'm more likely to see Thor.

[regnak]

As a GL reader who has not read X-Men in years, I say yes Gl looks worse than X-Men First Class.

I don't know pretty much a majority of the cast of X-Men First Class and I think it was a mistake to bring in the newer characters whom I don't know much about as the orignal team instead of Cyclops, Jean, etc. I haven't read Marvel in years, so bear with me. Did Bryan Singer ever explaing why that is? Havok is Cyclops father in this flick? WTF?

Cyclops and the rest didn't necessarily have to be the first X-Men. In the third movie, Beast basically told us as fact that the school had been running probably before he was a team member.

This is the movie chronology and universe, put the books aside and watch it develop as its own entity, as most movies should.

I voted for Thor as the one I'm most looking forward.

I'm least looking forward to Green Lantern. Which is the biggest shame, since it originally had the most potential to be the best movie of the decade. It's a shame what we were shown in the trailer (I'm NOT talking about effects, those are fine, I'm talking tone, writing, etc.) BUT the movie (and/or a new trailer) could turn that around very easily. Regardless, I'll be seeing it in theatres.

[DarkWarriorBlake]

I imagine the case with X-Men is that people sit down and about 20 minutes in go "Where the fuck is Wolverine?" and then walk out.

[lasraik]

There is no way Green Lantern bombs. If any of these movies bomb it will be X-Men First CLass.

[regnak]

TRAITOR :mad:

I don't recall pledging allegiance to Dc comics. OTOH your mindless devotion to GL makes you a sheep.

[Frank]

The Cap movie is the one i'm salivating about. What's strange is that from the trailers however I can't say the leads from any of these movies from Evans to Hemworth to Reynolds to James McCavoy "wooo" me. The only one that has that spark is Michael Fassbender as Magneto. Again it's only from the trailers.

[Ben D]

There is no way Green Lantern bombs. If any of these movies bomb it will be X-Men First CLass.

I think both will bomb. There does that make me a traitor to the Green Lantern Idea?

[DeadXMan]

depends on what your are looking for:

An Awesome epic of Epic Awesomeness: Thor

A action pact adventure set in WWII: Cap

having your hopes crushed after years of waiting: Green Lantern

something to amuse you if your drunk or Stoned: Suckerpunch.

to Keep Marvel from regaining their rights back: First Class

[jayce77]

Sad, but I'm right there with ya. Just can't get past Renyolds, or the God awful CG suit. And the acting looks like a bad romantic comedy. Why did they have to mess this one up. Why, oh why.

The only epic you're gonna get from Thor is flashbacks from Flash Gordon.

[TradePaperbackTraitor]

LOL It won't be that bad, but I am surprised that people are knocking Green Lantern so much compared to Thor. Honestly, IMO, trailer-wise.... Captain America stand above everyone and X-Men First Class is probably a better trailer than Thor or Green Lantern, although I want to watch Thor or GL much more than I do 20th Century Fox's re-do on the X-Men legend. Whatever the results, this is a great year for superhero films. I just hope they all do well so that studios will keep forking out the cash and give us the great ones amidst the duds.

BTW, has anyone caught a shot of Thor flying in the two trailers? Doesn't seem like they use his flight ability?

[skullboy]

I don't recall pledging allegiance to Dc comics. OTOH your mindless devotion to GL makes you a sheep.

I don't think so mister. I've been looking forward to a Green Lantern movie for a long time or any other character that's not Batman and Superman. Truthfully, I'm not a Ryan Reynolds fan and I hope he don't act too much like a goofball. Other than that, the rest of the trailer looks fantastic despite what people like you think. Even though I'm not a Marvel guy, I am also looking forward to Capt. America and I think that trailer blows away both Thor trailers.

It seems you act like Marvel never makes a bad movie so who's the real mindless sheep here? *Pointing* :mad:

[Karl O'Neill]

Green lantern for me. I know the second trailer is due soon and promises to give a more rounded insight into how good the movie can and will be.

[comicboy53]

Thor,green lantern,and x-men, had terrible trailers. Capt america had the best even my brother whos a dc fan and doesnt like capt america that much thought it was a fuckin good trailer. Im not being biased with which character is better all im saying is anyone that knows a good trailer and advetising should know that capt america had the best one but it could also be the worst film out of the four movies. but i'm trying to keep this about the thread and it asked which one looked best based on trailers so lets try to be unbiased here people:smile:

I hope not. I think Wolverine is awesome, but I'd like to see X-Men, as a franchise, being able to soar without Wolverine.

I love the X-Men. I think they're the coolest ever! I hope the movie is good.

I guess X-Men is the one I'm looking forward to the most.

Get over yourself, a straw man argument doesn't help you. (I never said marvel never makes a bad movie.) I WAS looking forward to GL as well. Then I saw the trailer which was not good. I was not planning to see the X Men First Class but after seeing that trailer I just might. This is because I have an open mind on these movies. You have all but admitted you don't. You want GL to be good so bad you ignore just how bad the trailer was.

Now it's possible GL will be better than the trailer appears and FC worse so I probably will wait until the 2nd weekend for both to hear word of mouth on both movies. Thor and Cap I'm there the first weekend.

[Joseph C.]

X-Men for me. The trailer has gotten me pretty hopeful and I'm always interesting in anything about mutants/people born with powers. Captain America comes in a very close second. The music for the trailer and the action scenes they showed in the trailer look really good.

That's your problem if you beleive it's bad. Whether you wanna see it or not is your business. No skin off my bones and consider this debate dead thank you.:tongue:

[SephirothDZX]

Captain America has me super pumped up. My doubts of Chris Evans have been pushed aside and I'm totally ready to see Hugo Weaving "Agent Smith" it up as Red Skull.

Thor looks pretty interesting though I have a feeling it wont hit an "Iron Man" type level like Cap has potential to.

Green Lantern looks like it could be respectable. The CGI suit looks stupid though, I have fears that the plot has too much going on at once, and I like Ryan Reynolds but he's just miscast as Hal.

X-Men First Class looks terrible. I dislike most of the casting and the whole movie feels like a slight low budget cash in on the X-Men Franchise. Plus I gave up on the X-Men franchise in general thanks to X3 and Wolverine.

[Jeff-E]

I think all of them look atleast good, if not great. Cap looks fantastic, as does Thor. GL looks good, I'm just hoping the goofieness of the first trailer is just something they put together to try and intrigue non comic fans. X-Men has me the most intrigued, but its at the bottom of my "to see" list. However the bottom of my "to see" list is still something I really really want to see.

[Frank]

The most exciting one is Captain America because of the whole approach. It reminds me of the first Iron Man movie in some parts as far as slowburn way to introduce the character although the Green Lantern trailer is more in the spirit of the Iron Man fun trailer. But the thing is, Iron Man could afford being a little crazy and fun in the trailer as it's about a guy that build on a suit in Afganistan while GL being fun and popcorn in the trailer works against it because the Green Lantern is big and goofy enough as it is with the whole alien armada approach and the silly costumes. That should have tried marveling us and using a mysterious approach on GL and cut some of the humour. That's why I think the Iron Man movie will be hard to reproduce because it struck such a great balance between realism and not being silly while being pretty damn fun at the same time. As such so far, even if Cap has the best trailer, it seems rather depressing in some places. Like it's a "sterile" Word if that makes any sense and the color palettes tone the flick down. Come on, it's Captain America, make it fun and colorful and swashbuckling.

X-Men: First Class, the places where it works it's all Fassbender. The other parts is different from what I imaged it to be. I thought it was going to be completly different from the other Fox X-Men movies and they were going to be go all realistic and have a more suspensful 60s Bond approach but it's just the same concepts they've done before placed in another time. Showing Beast growing blue feet convinced me that. Also the yellow kills it. I think while it doesn't excite me, I think i'm on the fence as I think it might surprise me because I like the idea of 1960s X-Men and how the whole thing started.

As for Thor, sorry I got nothing'. :biggrin:

[DarkWarriorBlake]

With less than three months before Green Lantern's June 17th release, Warner Bros. is reportedly finally getting serious about trying to convince some people to see Green Lantern--and while they're at it, they're going to finish casting this thing, too, because it turns out they haven't done that yet either.

Talking again to the LA Times, new Warner headmaster Jeff Robinov attributed the delay in producing a second trailer for the superhero film to being "on a learning curve in getting 3-D materials and marketing materials on the same schedule," and assured us a full-length preview will be belatedly attached to Marvel's May 6th release, Thor.

Also, while getting that trailer together, apparently someone noticed that all the sequences involving Green Lantern ally Kilowog speaking are completely silent, so Warner is going to go ahead and get someone to provide a voice for that guy while they're at it. Latino Review has it from multiple sources that the studio is going the obvious route and casting Michael Clarke Duncan, which will at least save some money on not having to add any reverb in post.

Kilowog (above) is described as "primary trainer of the [Green Lantern] Corps' newest recruits," so in addition to hearing the oft-near-tears voice of MCD overlaid, expect to probably also hear this song playing over a wacky montage involving Reynolds training; trying to fly in a will-projected green balloon; falling when that balloon pops; cut to KiloDuncan shaking his head; and so on.

That new Cap trailer was very, very good. I'm excited for both Cap and Thor.
X-men: First Class looks interesting, so I may see it.
Green Lantern, well, the trailer looked...awful and it didn't really excite me. I may wait for word of mouth on that one.

So you think the Thor trailer sucks yet you've heard great things about the movie? From where, the great beyond? :wink:

Actually I think the Thor trailer is just fine..do you think the person that wins the bronze medal at the Olympics "sucks?" It's just not as well put-together as the X-Men: First Class trailer. However I am a bigger fan of Thor as a character, am intrigued by the choice of director and many of the casting decisions, and eager to see the cinematic Marvel Universe continue to unfold, but these are all elements of the film from outside the trailers. Looking at the trailers as objectively as I can, I think that First Class has a better trailer.

Oh, and there are quite a few interviews, magazine articles, and other areas where the films have received attention and information has been presented, so...yeah, there's more than just the trailers to go on.

The only trailer out of those presented that I think "sucks" is Green Lantern, which is also the movie out of those presented that I may likely skip (at least until DVD) unless there's nothing better to do that weekend. Meanwhile I will definitely be checking out Thor, First Class, and Captain America in the theaters.

Quite hypocritical of you to be making snide remarks about people having pre-formed their opinion of the movies though.

[The Black Guardian]

I still want to see Green Lantern most, but Thor looks awesome.

You'd probably have to threaten me with bodily harm to see Captain America or X-Men.

[jessecuster3]

My list, since you are missing another hero, Optimus Prime.

1. Transformers
2. Captain America
3. Cowboys vs Aliens
4. Thor

I will still see all of these movies within the first 2 weeks they are out.

Oh, and there are quite a few interviews, magazine articles, and other areas where the films have received attention and information has been presented, so...yeah, there's more than just the trailers to go on.

The only trailer out of those presented that I think "sucks" is Green Lantern, which is also the movie out of those presented that I may likely skip (at least until DVD) unless there's nothing better to do that weekend. Meanwhile I will definitely be checking out Thor, First Class, and Captain America in the theaters.

Quite hypocritical of you to be making snide remarks about people having pre-formed their opinion of the movies though.

I hate the casting in Thor! Hemsworth is some hunky non-actor. Dennings and Portman are there to get the young girls whatever and all the pop references. Hopkins as Odin is a joke. Warrior Three are underwhelming. I only like Loki.

Green Lantern was a trailer that made me actively not want to see a movie. I remember my wife leaning over after it and saying "that looks like it's bad."
So i'd definetly put it at the bottom, Captain America probably at the top, then Thor,then X-Men,which i was shocked that i liked it.

I just viewed the polls. It's official. There truly are more Marvel fans than DC and wouldn't support a DC movie no matter how good it really looks. Truly disappointing, people.:mad:

Dark Knight was amazing.
Wonder Woman will probably be a bad tv show, GL had a terrible trailer. It's not being a fan of one company or another that makes a trailer good or bad.
For the record, i have read Avengers maybe 3 times in my life, and liked it one of those times, i have never read a Thor comic, and read Captain America once.

I read Green Lantern and Justice League for almost 10 years.

You are entitled to your opinion.

I disagree.

My list, since you are missing another hero, Optimus Prime.

1. Transformers
2. Captain America
3. Cowboys vs Aliens
4. Thor
4. X-Men
5. Green Lantern


I will still see all of these movies within the first 2 weeks they are out.

I think transformers ranks under green lantern for me. I've only seen the other two movies by waiting until they were on tv and still want that chunk of my life back.

Pretty sad state since I am a huge transformers fan.

1. Captain America
2. Thor

As if they don't just look SUPA cool.

Thor and Captain America. But Captain America just edges out Thor.
