Anyone else hoping that this film has a dark tone and not light hearted?

What's ironic is that Nolan's The Dark Knight is one of the best comic book films ever made because it did not follow a comic but rather did its own thing. But yeah WB just haven't been able to get things right recently. I love Suicide Squad with all its characters, storyline but of course it needs a better edited cut instead of the way they edited it with all the scenes being very short.
Suicide Squad is perhaps the most closest thing to being like an actual comic book but of course: people didn't like the pacing of it because it wasn't "film quality like" compared to Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy. -

Problem is you can't really do the Nolan formula too often and expect it to be successful for long. Nolan took out a lot of comic material from the movie and made it realistic and it worked but I doubt people would have kept munching up that formula if DC kept at it. Especially when they started introducing superpowered individuals to the movie.

This, but given WB meddling in SS, I really don't think they can help themselves.

No, that happened with SS. With BvS what happened was they had a 3 hour cut (the Ultimate Edition/Director's Cut) which the studio was okay with, then they got cold feet and chopped out 30 minutes last minute.
I was making the joke about the editing because they wanted to make SS lighter.

I keep hearing the term "dark tone". As much as I love a film on the "darker" side, I'm still learning what that means.. Nolans trilogy and BvS were both "dark" but what made Chris's films feel heavier is the maturity and creativity behind them, they are just better films. I think WB trying to constantly live up to nolanverse is silly because they are comparing all the wrong aspects.

Actually, you can if you emphasize his role as leader of the most powerful and feared nation in the world and his political differences with his half brother Orm and extremists such as the Deluge. Basically, make a political thriller with superheroics.

One of the reasons Throne of Atlantis is one of my all-time favourite comic books.

Dark works with Batman because, well, he's a complicated and a tormented soul. Doesn't work with Superman or Flash. Dark tone means, let's mess Superman up again, as if BvS wasn't enough.
