Justice League: Twitter is super impressed, positive early reactions begin pouring in

Director Zack Snyder brought out the big guns at the Las Vegas CinemaCon to introduce scenes from the upcoming DC Comics films Justice League and Wonder Woman.

By his side were actors Ben Affleck (Batman), Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Ray Fisher (Cyborg), Ezra Miller (The Flash) and Henry Cavill (Superman).

He looked back on his seven year journey to bring these characters together on film. “I got a call from producers Christopher Nolan and Emma Thomas asking me how do you feel about Superman? And, so, I’m here today,” he said.

The session focussed on the upcoming Justice League movie (November), Wonder Woman (June) and Aquaman (which, according to Momoa, he was leaving to shoot that very day).

The event, which is designed for studios to showcase their upcoming slate for theatre owners also attracts movie journalists and critics, most of whom report back on Twitter.

Here are some reactions:

Aquaman trailer filled with concept art and animatics did a huge sell on the underwater world of Atlantis. Looked VERY COOL. #cinemacon

Just saw a super slick reel of Aquaman concepts. It included people riding sharks underwater described as a dogfight. Wan has a great vision

Saw three scenes from Wonder Woman. They were wonderful. Just the right blend of tones and action.

A few new bits from Justice League. The Flash tapping a falling sword to Wonder Woman and then Flash geeking out over the Batsignal.
