Rumor: Superman Buzz "Not Good" Following Test Screenings; Tone Compared To Captain America: The First Avenger

The first trailer for Superman received widespread praise when it dropped last week but we can never have nice things for long. Talking on The Hot Mic, Jeff Sneider and John Rocha shared what they've heard about recent test screenings and...it's not great.
For context, you may recall that, on December 6, The Hollywood Reporter revealed the following:
"We've heard from multiple sources about one screening in particular, on the lot and with his close-knit crew of people he trusts. We're keeping the buzz about the movie itself in our own Fortress of Solitude, but we can tell you that the movie will be doing a few days of additional shooting in Los Angeles in the near term."
Sneider claims to have met with a source who "knew multiple people who had seen Superman" and states, "[The] buzz is not good. I'm hearing bad things. I'm hearing 'you should be worried things.
