Batman v Superman spoilers from post 2434

Surely he IS holding back or all we'd see of the trailer is Superman blasting Batman with lazers. THE END.

I reckon this tango will be Batman goading Superman, trying to provoke him, get under his skin, make him show weakness. Superman will struggle to hold back (and at some point surely Batman will have the upper hand) but ultimately overcome his demons (i.e. he won't snap Batman's neck like he did Zod) and the two will become BFFs.

I would have thought the same, one clip in the trailer shows Batman just getting out of the way of a lazer blast.

Scene could be taken out of context, but to me it looked like he meant to hit him.

This has always been one of my faovurite Superman moments, when he fights Darkseid.

And the quote seems very relevant here -

"I feel like I live in a world made of cardboard. Always taking constant care not to break something. To break someone. Never allowing myself to lose control. Even for a moment or someone could die."

I actually really liked the dark tone of it.

How cool is Jeremy Irons' voice?!

thomas anderson. · 14-07-2015 8:52am

Think it looks cheap and Will Smith was the wrong choice for deadshot

There is a Suicide Squad thread ..

It's the same old Batman Begins problem...

Jon Stark · 26-07-2015 9:08pm

I'm sure it will be different in the film but the suit does make Affleck look fat in these promotional images.

googled eyes · 26-07-2015 9:29pm

Although Batman's neck looks like he can't turn, as with Batman Begins. I watched one of those behind the scene

Suicide Squad

clips. The Batman stunt guy turns his head perfectly normally.
I think the neck/shoulder area is just padded out a bit too much

It really photographs poorly. But then again so did nearly every iteration so far. I'm sure it'll be okay on film, but here i'm worrying about his cholesterol and that terrible posture.

26-07-2015 11:25pm

It'll never be as bad as the George Clooney batsuit. He really couldn't move his head.

Batman was very bulky in the Dark Knight Returns, wonder are they taking the que from that.

The angle of the Batman Photo is very unfortunate that his chin lines up with a line on the bat signal lamp. Very sphynx like

29-07-2015 2:03pm

I wonder if we get any origin story in this revamp of Batman or will he already be established? This is essentially ignoring Nolan's trilogy, right?

You can see in the trailers that he's long established, with Clark investigating him with the Daily Planet commenting on all the years of him being around Gotham, probably because he's going against Superman.

Mickeroo · 29-07-2015 2:09pm

And there's the old bat suit with the grafitti on it too suggesting

Jason Todd's murder

So I wonder whether that means

Nightwing/Red Hood will be a character eventually, given that that's who Jason Todd became, right?

Its a Robin suit if you pause the trailer view it full screen you can actually see the "R" logo on it Screen-Shot-2015-07-13-at-1.29.13-PM-700x336.png?resize=700%2C336

Now that's a good spot!

Mickeroo · 29-07-2015 2:14pm

Nice, hadn't copped that, there's no doubt about it so. Hopefully it's sewing the seeds for the Affleck directed solo movie.

FunLover18 · 29-07-2015 2:20pm

Wasn't there a story ages ago about

Jenna Malone being cast as a female Robin

Agent Coulson · 29-07-2015 2:27pm

Big online fan theory at the moment for both this and Suicide Squad at the moment about Robin is...

The Joker in the Suicide Squad isn't the Joker we are expecting but it is Jason Todd

The link below goes through how they came to that idea.

McLoughlin · 29-07-2015 2:34pm

I don't pay much attention to fan theory as some fans can just be very very analytical over little things like in Jurassic World with the theory that Chris Pratt's character was the Dinosaur kid in Jurassic Park because of the raptor respect line

No, just Lois.

The Batman codpiece is kind of awkward.

Mr Freeze · 29-07-2015 6:59pm

He definitely looks a bit Fatman to me. Its the mask/cowl and his cheeks/chin or something. He looks squished into that mask.

Still not sold at all on this version of Batman.

Jon Stark · 29-07-2015 8:33pm

He looks less chubby in the latest ones to me.

I'm confident that Affleck will be fine in terms of both physicality and performance in the actual film.

googled eyes · 29-07-2015 8:39pm

I feel like people are really trying to nitpick with Batman.

The padding in the suit doesn't do it any favours in that head on shot, there seems to be no depth ( of field) to the image. He does look, well, fat.

But in these behind the scene images the cowl doesn't look as tight around the face. He still looks huge with the padding but that's the style they are going for.

Also Batman has been out of action for a while (or so we believe). So he's gonna be banging the steroids out of it to get in shape for Superman

Agent Coulson · 07-08-2015 7:33pm

Rumor:

Batman V. Superman Screening Gets Standing Ovation, Affleck Getting Long Term Deal.

Just like he does with everything else, Batman is dominating the DC Cinematic Universe.

According to rumors from Warner Bros. insiders, the future of DC Movie slate will now center around Ben Affleck’s Dark Knight. The sudden (but really, unsurprising) pivot came after an early cut of Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice was shown to a small group of Warner Bros. executives. The big wigs were reportedly so impressed with the film, that they gave it a standing ovation.

And much of that applause was for Ben Affleck and his performance as Batman. The executives are so impressed, in fact, that they are reportedly trying to get Affleck on-board for three stand-alone Batman films. Affleck’s Batman, and these movies, would reportedly become the cornerstone of DC’s other movies, with one Warner boss reportedly calling Affleck the “definitive Batman.”

Since these reports are unconfirmed or credited, just treat them as rumors for now. But seeing as how Batman is, well, Batman, we wouldn’t be surprised if there was some truth to the story.

Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice hits theaters on March 26, 2016.

Mickeroo · 07-08-2015 8:10pm

If the film is complete enough to be screening why do we have to wait until March?

Agent Coulson · 07-08-2015 8:13pm

I'd say there is alot more CGI to add to it.

I have to admit the idea of Batfleck is growing on me just from the trailer alone.

Don't believe first reviews.

Apparently The Dark Knight Rises had execs balling.

Hell, the first FF reviews on Twitter had rave reviews.

All this being said I'm a Batman fanboy and would be chuffed if this works out.

Yep, to be fair, the big-wigs who stand to make a lot of money from a film that they're putting money into aren't going to say it's crap!

ha!

I'm afraid the animated incarnation voiced by Kevin Conroy will always have that title. (Apologies I seem to always post something like this when definitive & Batman get mentioned in the same sentence).

I wouldn't trust any thing the "Big Wigs" supposedly say.

I do feel sorry for poor Henry Cavill though, aint nobody mentioned him lately...

thomas anderson. · 10-08-2015 10:53am

The Superman character has always been the death of the actors career

10-08-2015 11:08am

Henry Cavill is a strong enough actor that that shouldn't happen. Past ones, excluding Reeves, just haven't been at his level, I think.

There´s a spoilery sort of anecdote here from

Michael Shannon (I didn´t realise he was in this movie)
