Sadly... Lex.
Okay
Was hoping for something more epic

Given where popular opinion lies on the two at the moment, anything Marvel does will generate more hype and goodwill. Might as well go big and make some more announcements.
there really isnt much marvel can do to upstage, they will show footage of avengers two, they will announce which date goes with doctor strange, black panther and thor and captain america titles
Can anyone give me some twitter account/liveblog with reporting directly from hall H?
She has the face and height for the role plus she is young enough. You don't want a 30-40 year old woman because this franchise is going to be lasting for some time. You also don't want some 5 ft 6 in or lower girl either because that is not WW (Gadot is 5 ft 10 in which is taller than most other girls they were considering for the role).She's not adding anything, she works as a fashion model. I still don't quite understand why they went with her, but whatever.
Batman is standing on a rainy rooftop, clad in heavy armor and a visor that makes his eyes glow. He turns on the bat single, blasting into the sky, when lighting strikes. The signal goes out, and theres Superman, hovering above him. Supermans eyes glow red, he looks down. Batman stares up.
Good point. A very obvious lack of fun and adventure which the Marvel movies excel at. Perhaps that's the idea. DC movies get to be mopey and pretentious while Marvel is camp fun even it's darkest moments
I really want them to go all out though. Wonder Woman should straight up murder a criminal without remorse and that causes tension Superman who still regrets Zod. They fight and it turns out she's working with the Dark Knight whose trying to take him down
Shit's 'bout to go down.
Shit's 'bout to go down.
I would prefer them to not fighting against each other. But whatever.

Oh man that looks so fucking cool.official!
Seems like this could be the armored Bat Suit designed to fight Superman from Dark Knight Returns.
It starts with thunder and rain, as a hand pulls a tarp off of something… it’s Ben Affleck’s Batman on a Gotham City rooftop, and he’s in the full bat-armor from Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns. His eyes are glowing white, and we see that what he’s pulled that tarp off of is the bat-signal. He turns the signal on and the famed bat symbol fills the sky… but then we see it’s aimed at something. At a man floating in the sky. A super-man! Cut to a close-up of Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel as his eyes start to glow with heat vision. Cut back to Batman whose eyes are still glowing white. It’s the stare down of all stare downs! Cut to the title screen: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
The crowd of course went wild, but even more so when Snyder then brought Affleck, Cavill, and even “our Wonder Woman” Gal Gadot. No questions or discussion -- just the four of them standing together up there for our earliest look at the Big Three together.

You can still get that contrast without going for Marvel's style of "fun."I understand people like it, not saying it's a piece of shit or something, just that it's trying so hard to be Dark Knight, which tried to distance itself from its comic origins. It's a dude dressed as a bat catching criminal. Don't over-think it.
That's why I think Marvel has found the right balance between fun, dramatic and action. It knows what it is and celebrates it.
To me, from what I saw of Man of Steel and BvsS, everything is on the same level. It's supposed to be a clash of ideals between those two. Supes' the boyscout with sunshines and puppies and Batman is just this bleak, dark, depressing mess. You've got contrast. There it's just the same treatment for everyone. They've been uniformed into similar packages which I think makes it so that you lose the impact of what should be a clash between worlds, especially with WW joining the lot.
Batman and Superman fighting is one of those things that's a crowd pleaser despite being dumb in almost everything but the story it originated in. They kind of have to do it.Shit's 'bout to go down.
I would prefer them to not fighting against each other. But whatever.

Hhnnnnggggg! To much of it.

I don't understand the "works as a fashion model" thing considering this is probably bigger than any fashion gig she can get. She should be prioritizing her looks to match the role as WW as she will be in at least 3 movies as the character.
That sounds amazing. Is there any chance it'll get officially released? Or is it just going to be leaks at best?
somebody leak the footage for the sake of my sanity.
I'd think that'd be exactly why they would want to announce more, particularly in light of Marvel so aggressively announcing release dates. But then, I'm not Kevin Tsujihara... though I'm still waiting for that "series" of DC films promised in that NYT profile of him months ago.
