Like I said earlier, he looked pretty good as DD but his Murdock was subpar.

where do you get the idea for this?
yet it's always Superman that saves the day. time and time again. if anyone holds on to that no killing rule it's Batman. he holds on to it a lot more than Superman. Superman has killed before. Zod and Doomsday to name two. Batman has had chances to kill the joker and always has some contrived reason why he won't.
jesus such negativity.
I quoted that line to you. It is not tied to powers AT ALL in the film. Whether in actual sentences or in actual displays of power; Clark is surviving arctic waters while submerged for an entire flashback, survives and flies in the vacuum of space repeatedly, and in the non-Earth atmosphere of a raging oil rig fire, or during reentry pummeled by Zod grunting (not holding breath), none of those non-Earth atmosphere conditions compromised his powers.
Moreover, it's not even consistent with the view compromise of the helmets since strength is exhibited even before any helmets are.
The only thing linked, three times in the film, to the powers is radiation. Jor-El in picking the star. Jor-El in explaining the powers. Jax-Ur in explaining the powers.
Not once does Jor-El ask Lara, "Does the planet meet these atmospheric conditions?" nor does he caution Kal to avoid vacuums or hold his breath... no, he says, "Strike that panel." precisely because Earth atmosphere means nothing to his powers. This is the most consistent view of the film because otherwise you have to come up with really bizarre justifications for who is breathing what when and why which get convoluted and untenable and, frankly, aren't supported by the dialog or the scenes.
Additionally, the only time atmosphere is mentioned so is gravity... so why aren't we making his powers gravity dependent? Why doesn't he wilt under the literal gravity-weapon if his strength is derived from low-gravity? Why is atmosphere given more weight as a power factor than gravity? Likely because of mistaken assumptions about what the helmets do, but if you don't make those assumptions, nothing in the traditional model contradicts anything that happens in the film; whereas assuming these are factors really over-complicates reconciling everything in the film.
In any case, I'll agree to disagree... it definitely wasn't explicitly stated in the film one way or the other, but the radiation way only requires three rules with no-plot holes: 100% radiation, training, Kryptonian atmosphere block stores... whereas any combination of other factors needs those same three rules AND more rules to justify the extra rules as not being contradictory or plot holes with other scenes.
Unless it has been confirmed to be Affleck, I stand by my feeling that the voice at the end was actually Eisenberg pitched down with effects over it.

I wonder if the line about powerlessness turning good men cruel is more about Luthor than Batman.

The turn around on Batfleck is amazing.
:lol
Where's that announcement thread when you need it!

Also need to include the phrase "No one knows why they're fighting cause we haven't seen the movie."
Really? I always thought it was more about his acting. I questioned how well he would do in a film where he is not directing and/or writing (seems to do his best) and Snyder/Goyer heading it.
He always looked like Bruce.
At least Goyer is gone and Snyder nailed the batsuit.

Yes, it does. Here is the line.
nourishingromoting or sustaining life, growth, or strength: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/nourishing
And just so you don't think i'm cherry picking
nourishing
nourishing:containing substances necessary for growth, health, and good condition.
https://www.google.com/search?q=nou...57.5315j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8
At this point, with the use of the word nourishing, strength and powers are tied to Earth's atmosphere in conjunction to radiation.
Superman needs earth's sun to power him up. without it he has no super powers. from my understanding it seems that with Earth's relatively cleaner atmosphere,sucking up solar radiation and a less harsh atmosphere and lighter gravity he can be a superman.

I am sorry sis ;_;
Maybe we'll just talk one
-Yes, it is a Superman movie with Batman in it
-No, they won't be fighting for the entire movie.
-No, Batman shouldn't stand a chance, but he will put up a fight.
-Yes, it's slightly brighter lookign than Man of Steel.
-No, he still doesn't have the undies.

This looks awesome I hope they do superman justice and don't just give this win to batman because he's the underdog here.
But it even sounds like a manipulated Affleck line. Not sure how you believe this. Watch an interview with him or something and listen again.

Trailer is awesome.
Anyone got any guesses on how Batman stands a chance against the Man of Steel? Superman only has one weakness right?

lmao i said marvel is doing a turnaround for me. to be fair though that's when I thought wright was still on ant man and i came out of iron man 3.
was also hoping they delayed the movie to get ben affleck to retouch the script :3

Superman's greatest weakness is his heart.

Everyone bitching about how Batman has a rifle need to read or watch The Dark Knight Returns. He doesn't snipe anyone, he uses he to fire a long grapple line.

Nah.
He's not invunerable, you just need to hit him hard enough. Enemies as strong as he is, or technology that can hit him that hard, can hurt him.
He's also weak against magic, which is unlikely to come up here.
I shit all over Snyder and Goyer in that thread.

Superman didn't kill them. The sun did. Superman just arranged the meeting.

The online reaction to this trailer (in other places) is making it easy to figure out who the fuck I need to avoid for the next few months.

Her sword can cut him, in the comics at least
It seems to be improving when people can actually see the teaser.
So that's a plus for Warner!
it's not even comparable, SW not only releases earlier than this it also already had a teaster trailer before the one released yesterday (which IMO it was very underwhelming). It's fairer to compare this teaser to the first SW teaser, if you are willing to do something like that.

is this still set in the "dark knight" universe that Nolan created?

now we're having trailer wars. well one is the first teaser footage we've had and the other is the second official trailer for a movie that,s due Christmas. we can't ever have two good things. it has to be one is better than the other. no ifs and or buts about it.

Its bad timing on their part. They should have held it for at least a week before releasing it or allowing it to be leaked.
it's kind of ridiculous, I don't get the 'have to choose one' mentality.
Ah yes. I actually think they'll probably keep that, too.
I'm still not entirely sold she's in the movie a lot.

So he's exactly like Goku, then. Go figure.
