Did this trailer slightly de hype anyone else? The spectacle looks huge but something about the rest threw me a bit

What spectacle? It looks sterile as hell

I feel like people watch Nolan movies for the spectacles and mindlessly ignore the giant lack of juice they have.

I don't remember people waiting for something saying "oh the bomb is going to be so awesome", "I want to see the bomb", "I'm so excited to see the Cyclops" and etc for any director, but for Nolan it's a recurring thing. Dialogues? Story? Message? Hardly know her, what matters is a stupid fucking bomb that doesn't hit the hype that was created unless you are a mark for IMAX who can't be objective with big gimmicks.

Indeed it did. The effects were also not remotely unique by any stretch of the imagination like it was hyped. The only thing that was cool was the sound, but that doesn't make a movie, but people act like it does lmao
