Minor thing I just found out.
So the first meeting with Lex in the DOJ in the roundtable, one of the people there was Director Crawley. That in fact is the same (albeit in the DCU and not DCEU) Crawley from The Suicide Squad that knocked out Waller with the golf club
I remembered seeing her in TSS when I saw this movie I just didn’t know if she was playing the same character. Nice little nod to TSS (which i guess is semi canon)
The Suicide Squad, Peacemaker, and Creature Commandos, and now Superman, are all canon so far. There’s characters with the same actors that carry over from Suicide Squad over to Creature Commandos, they even acknowledge project Starfish and Weasel returns.

Yes and no. So if there’s a new Harley that’s not Margot then it is what it is.
So whatever is directly mentioned, is canon.

Peacemaker came from Suicide Squad also, as did The Weasel, they mention him drowning and disappearing in Creature Commandos. The same actress that plays Waller across the board, she’s getting her own tv series also. So much of it is canon

Well right.
Basically the events of TSS and Peacemaker S1 did happen. The real elephant in the room is the Justice League appearance at the end of Peacemaker. I think (based on the last trailer) that the Peacemaker from the DCEU is going to come to the DCU via a pocket universe and kill the DCU version of himself. The same general events of TSS and S1 will have happened, but things are different.
Like for example, based on the trailer and set photos, Robert Patrick’s character is alive as well as Peacemaker’s brother in the DCU.
They’re going to have to multiverse explain things away but I think they’re going to just get all of that out the way in episode 1
I will say I’m not a fan of the direction Gunn took with Superman’s parents and their purpose for sending him to Earth but it didn’t ruin the film for me

https://twitter.com/everythingdcu_/status/1861451710105035113wtf does “loosely canon” even mean lol this that s*** that messed up DCEU. Let’s stop the confusing s*** please
one of my biggest takeaways is grinning from ear to ear throughout the movie.

So worth the wait. S*** lives up to the hype
Bets on who Ultraman will become next time we see him from the other side of the portal:
Doomsday or Bizzaro. I got Bizzaro

Seemed pretty clear to me that he’ll end up becoming bizarro. Honestly I figured that he’d be revealed at bizarro this film but maybe that would have been too much for such an already stacked film

Lex said he was dumb af when they arent controlling him + got pulled into a black hole in a pocket dimension
Doomsday is intelligent
So 100% Bizzaro. and Gunn loves his overlooked characters

Looking forward to the sequel when Clark goes into Bell Reeve to interview Lex ala All-Star Superman
“I'm aware envy consumes my every waking moment. I KNOW when they mention Galileo, or Einstein, or one of these other twits in the same breath as me, I feel a tight vomit burn in the back of my throat! But at least Galileo did something. He wasn't some dopey illusion, catapulted onto this planet, just to have the world fawn over him because his strength illuminates how WEAK we all really are! "MY ENVY IS A CALLING. IT IS THE SOLE HOPE FOR HUMANITY BECAUSE IT IS WHAT HAS DRIVEN ME TO ANNIHILATING YOU." “1A !!! 1A!!! 1A !!! 1A!!! 1A!! 1A!!!”
The change regarding why his parents sent him to Earth was pretty bold. Felt like it would be revealed Lex lied but they stuck with it until the very end.

agreed. I don't think it's too late to in a sequel claim that it was misread or something or like maybe brainiac had something to do with it etc

Was very surprised it wasnt exposed as fake

Think I’ve finally gathered my thoughts.
I loved it, it was super refreshing just being thrust into an already established world where things like pocket universes, intergalactic imps& intergalactic zoo’s are a thing no one bats an eye at. This movie captured the essence of Superman better than any other live action depiction and Corenswet is Superman.
The acting on display specifically from him, and Holt was fantastic. I personally never felt the movie was overstuffed with characters or plot, the runtime breezed by.
On some criticism I had though, Superman when being interviewed by Lois initially comes off kinda cocky/ arrogant and like .. there’s not really any pay off, growth of arc from that. No mention of how him losing his first battle made him feel iirc and no growth from him, it was just another day. On a more minor note I hated that screech sound effect that played anytime Hawkgirl did something lmao
Edit: I forgot I also kinda thought the final Superman speech to lex was kinda on the nose
They could've left out Hawkgirl altogether but that screech was annoying though
