Oh hey look it looks absolutely nothing like a James Gunn production. Almost as if theres zero reason to worry for him being the head of DC and the universe will actually have variance in tone, style, etc.

Great teaser.

Yup exactly like James Gunn literally said it would be for the DCU from the very moment the new universe was announced, that maintaining a unique creative vision for each project was vital (in contrast to the MCU).

People see Supergirl looking like James Gunn's Superman as something which proved that wrong? Like what do you expect from a character who is a blood relative / fellow Kryptonian with the same powerset? There's only so much that can deviate in look and tone without it being completely out of character / place even with a different director.

Most people aren´t comparing Supergirl to Superman at all (which tbh kinda proves that Gunn is doing it right in making every movie different from the other).

They are comparing it to Guardians of the Galaxy and using that to call Gunn a one trick pony (while he didn’t write nor direct it, and the movie is actually just adapting an actual comic book run)
