I think Zod's body will be used by Lex Luthor to create Doomsday.

I can't stop watching this trailer...saw the leaked Suicide Squad trailer too...it's tough to find now because it gets removed quickly...but I believe the tides are turning to DC now. I know I'm not alone in wanting more adult themed comic book movies. If this stuff happened in real life it would not be filled with jokes, and bright colors. I like the Marvel movies for what they are, but I prefer more realism.

Only thing this day needs now is the Deadpool trailer.

I agree with you 100 percent. I love the marvel movies but they are too family friendly. Its nice to have DC do the darker grittier movies.

I heard Ryan Reynolds was going to be at SDCC, hopefully they show something. But also, Marvel isn't there so maybe we won't....who knows.

Deadpool isn't Marvel Studios. There is a panel for Deadpool. No clue if they'll share anything online. I'm sure it'll leak though.

Anyone find it weird the trailer focused on Superman so much over the other two? Wonder Woman only got like two small scenes and Batman only got a little more.

I was hoping this movie would give the 3 of them equal screentime, but it feels mostly like a Superman movie with Batman guest starring and Wonder Woman in a supporting role.

It should be that way because it is.Its the sequel to Man of Steel,a Superman fiel and Superman is being forced to take some focus on Batman and others as he helps introduce a cinematic universe.

They're showing Superman more because we've already seen him. There's less excitement and mystery. Batman and especially Wonder Woman are the big teasers because we haven't seen them in full in this universe yet; Wonder Woman, we haven't seen in live action in almost 40 years and on the big screen, never. They're going to show enough to get us excited, but not show ALL of what they have until we pay to see it.

I've already seen enough. That was PERFECT. Seeing Affleck really move and emote as Bruce/Batman, he really nailed it, man, my hat's off to the guy. He's like 50/50 with me, there's stuff I like him in and stuff I hate him in, but damn, this is gonna be great. And the way the scenes are framed and shot, even... they're literally comic book panels. It's amazing. They're literally putting the books on screen, more projecting them than "adapting" them. It's terrific, and I can see why they're taking so long to make it.

Also, everything in the trailer was in the leaked plot summary. That is AWESOME news. Now that I'm 99% sure what we're getting, and seeing how it's all gonna look... this will be a hard one to beat. This could literally be a game-changer. I'm glad they took their time with it, I'm really excited about it, and I can't wait for March. I'm a little iffy on Suicide Squad yet but we'll see. It looks like as far as the "Big Guns" are concerned, DC's film future is in terrific hands.

I never doubted Gadot, but DAMN she looks good. Holy dream girl Batman!

The rest of the movie looks just as retarded as I thought it would.

HEY SNYDER! ARE YOU COLOR BLIND? FOR F*CKS SAKE! STOP WITH THE INSTAGRAM FILTERS.

gah....

I freaking loved that trailer. Felt all warm inside. It was great. I can't wait to see the movie. Look how positive I'm being. I don't do that sh*t.

I'm also drunk.

Luthor's the only thing I wasn't 100% on but I'm not going for a final judgment based on 8 seconds of footage. Meanwhile, I still kind of wish they had a different Wonder Woman, but I'm impressed with what we've got. I know nothing at all about Gal but I'm a lot more excited now than I was before.

I really like how Cavill isn't afraid to emote. A lot of people have played Superman too stoic; Cavill's great at acting with his face. That look of pure contempt he gives Luthor when he's kneeling in front of him is just great.

I can't stop marking out for that spot here Batman does the Dark Knight Returns pose right before he dodges Superman's heat vision.

Spoiler:
I figure inside about 6 months we'll finally have SOME idea of what Doomsday looks like in this. I can't even imagine.

So....how the heck old is Alfred Pennyworth? He raised Bruce, then adult Brucy has been Batman for 20 years....and may even be retired...BUT Alfred's still kickin' and looks pretty good I might add.

Going to be hard to beat this masterpiece
Spoiler:


I bet however it looks, it will have Zod's face and very distinct lips...

I get that Gadot looks nothing like the classic WW, but I think she looks great. Too many times they turn WW into a man with long hair and boobs. (not that there's anything wrong with that).





Yes, it's because she's amazonian, yes because the creator, yes blah blah, yadda yadda,...

I think Gadot looks good. Who knows if she can act, but she looks good in the costume.


The rest looks really stupid. Too solemn, strange dialogue, and the 911 references ... not sure how I feel about it. Very on the nose.

Just came over from the Suicide Squad thread to share my thoughts.

I'll start with the only negative: Luthor.

The hair is whatever, I'm guessing he is really bald based on the earlier picture.
But he just seems to young. In this universe where everyone's is being acknowledged as having been around, Luthor seems way too young. Everything from look to the way he dresses just screams early twenties to me. Maybe there's some transition, where he then shaves his head/pulls off wig, and dons a business suit, but I don't know.

Now everything else: wow don't know where to start.

Batman looks great. The suit which I wasn't sold on at first has grown on me, this is my favorite batmobile yet, and affleck looks like Wayne to me.

LOVED the supposed reference to the dead Jason Todd, the robin suit,and I have a feeling we will be seeing his new persona Red Hood, as well as increasing the chance for first robins Nightwing, in the solo batman movie.
Spoiler:
( beginning to wonder if that joker Scene revealed in suicide squad where's he's torturing someone is actually a flashback to him with Jason).


LOVED how joker is there, even though he's not. The interconnection between the two movies is really making this exciting. If rumors are true that
Spoiler:
joker already killed Jason and Harley felt guilty that's why they're estranged
are true, I think it'll be a fantastic plot

Wonder Woman looks good, and really curious how she gets tied in

Batman using his grapple away from I believe superman was an incredible scene on its own, plus him gettin out of the batmobile was epic

Oh, you.

Boy, do I hate Smallville! Forever may it reign as the sh*ttiest Superman adaptation in the history of ever! Except that 1970s stage musical that we don't talk about, because I will cut you.

Electric: Yeah, all that. And I'm not quite sure what the Luthor angle is either, but based on everything else I'm gonna be patient. They made a big deal in the press how he's actually bald so clearly there's more going on than we've seen yet. Not my favorite thing from what we've seen, but everything else is spot-on so I'm willing to see a little more before I make a final decision. Definitely a little young, but eh.

Jeremy Irons is 66, and Batman is supposed to be 50 from what I've heard. But I mean guys like Irons, and Stallone, and Schwarzenegger are all nearly 70 and still action stars...I hope Batman isn't 50 in this, and maybe somewhere around 42-45.

Electric, I like to think Joker's teeth are like that because Batman knocked all his teeth out years ago...so I'm hoping it's not what you are guessing.

I don't have a problem with Luthor, because I haven't seen enough yet, and that could just be a nod to the original Superman movies and only last a few scenes. As long as he's not only about property in this, and is actually about death and destruction, and power...I'm good with it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to watching this trailer then the Deadpool trailer over and over and over...two best trailers I've ever seen.
