Love the Rock, love Black Adam
Rock still doesn't really feel like Black Adam
That said, this still looks decent for what it is

{Spoiler}{Spoiler} That particular insider is also a hardcore Snyder cultist, so it's unlikely they're posting this just to get a rise out of them.
Still, it checks out with Cavill's open desire to play a more "classic" Superman.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}There are so many people pissed that it's apparently the John Williams theme instead of Zimmer. I can understand that a little, but for making a huge impact in a short amount of time, you won't be able to beat the original Williams theme. It's iconic.
I'm glad that Cavill's back though. The Snyder version of Superman had a lot of issues but he was never one of them. I'd love to see his Superman become more of a classic Superman now he's had his darker and rough start.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} Imagine filling up your diaper because you're mad that they used one of the greatest superhero themes of all time. Snyder Cultists are just the worst and companies would be wise to actively write and direct their movies to be what they don't like. You know... good movies.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}I really hate the cultists love of Junkie XL's track that was just loud noises and WHAM BANNGGGGGGG. Nothing beats Williams and Elfman's scores and I hate not reusing them.

{Spoiler}Nothing beats Williams and Elfman's scores and I hate not reusing them. {Spoiler}I get the logic in not reusing them if they don't fit the tone of the movie. With the exception of the Schumacher Batman movies, I don't think any of the movies fit the tone of those themes.
For example:
Elfman's music is great, but it turns what is supposed to be a tense race against time into a fun romp.

People's memories of what they think Superman is and should be are frozen colder and deeper than the Fortress of Solitude. It's both ironic and sad that when it comes to his movies, the Man of Tomorrow is perpetually stuck in the nostalgia of 1978.

Beyond that, Snyder's little goblin fans don't deserve anything but the opposite of what they want.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Setting up Black Adam vs. Superman is kinda stupid... he's not a Superman villain. Hell he is literally Shazam's arch nemesis.
I kinda think they're going to lean too far in trying to make Adam likeable cause it's the Rock.
As for the Superman theme... well it's that... it is literally the Theme for Superman.
Other people have tried to make one but none have been able to make anything that really fits the hope and inspirational tone of the character.
and like the point is to get a big here's Superman moment so making an all new theme for what is essentially an Easter Egg doesn't fit so going back to the Williams makes the most sense.

{Spoiler}Holy shit, we’re getting Superman Vs The Rock lol. Well, Black Adam I guess. That sounds cool as hell tbh. I’m glad they mended fences.

Hasn't Black Adam always been portrayed as an utter bastard who only cares about his city?

Hasn't Black Adam always been portrayed as an utter bastard who only cares about his city? It varies pretty wildly, he's definitely more of a villain traditionally but he does pretty frequently fall into being depicted much more as a hero. Also... {Spoiler}I genuinely cannot remember what the f*** the Zimmer theme even sounds like. Really in general I think all of his music bleeds together.

Black Adam showed up on my trending tab on Twitter so I thought I'd check and see what people are saying about it. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}As 90% of the tweets seemed to be excited over Superman/Henry Cavill making an appearance, I think WB will be in big trouble if he doesn't. There's some goodwill out there right now for DC but that's going to evaporate pretty quickly if there's no Superman, even if the movie is good.
I'm pretty sure Supes will be in it though as the Rock isn't even being subtle with his teases anymore. It's getting to AEW dropping CM Punk hints at this point.
