I’ve seen people saying this. Guess I’m not seeing it.

Looks way better to me than almost any Marvel/DCEU slop over the past few years.

Costumes are too bright and tooney
I know theyre going for the Christopher Reeves look but it doesnt fit in the world
Looks more like a cosplay rather than clothing that serves a purpose

Also Hawkgirl, Supergirl, Mr Terrific, Metamorpho, Engineer, and Green Lantern
Did they learn nothing from their previous movies about shoehorning too many characters into one movie

I enjoyed the teaser. It's about time we finally see Krypto get some love in a big budget Hollywood film with Superman.

If anyone is going to get the general audience to like Superman again, its James Gunn. Henry Cavill's portrayal was completely wasted.

will we get Sep v3 before GTA 6?  :o
Yeah probably haha. I know my timeline claims have been completely off by like... a year, but it's in a pretty decent spot right now.

I'm not expecting a due date yet but I've been pushing myself hard over the last couple days trying to find the most optimal way to make a stack of ludicrously strong magnets move through what copper coils I've got. Rotation would be the best but good luck making anything stable with what I've got access to.

I made a small water wheel that got up to 700 rpm under a sink faucet dripping at half speed, but its lightweight frame means it can't carry heavy ass magnets.

I settled on a pendulum being cranked by water. The stack of magnets I've got is so strong that they repel each other from two feet away, and testing them above one of my coils gets me 7-10 volts and 10-20 milliamps just moving them back and forth by hand.

I've had to adapt and reassemble things three times this week, but hopefully I'll get something up soon. 10-20 milliamps isn't a lot, but that's enough to charge a battery safely, just slowly.

I'm also encountering problems now. Past 20 milliamps if I move those magnets by hand the copper coil responds with its own opposing magnetic field that I can physically feel repel the magnet stack. This is what they refer to as back emf, which was a hurdle I knew I'd encounter eventually.

The stronger the magnets and the faster you move them by the copper, the stronger the opposing magnetic field generated by the copper, which is nature's subtle poke telling you to fuck off and stop trying to create unequilibrium with energy. It just means I'll need stronger things to push against that field if I want to increase the power output.
