Fuck, this is like comics actually getting adapted to screen. Like actual modern comics, not comics as the public perceives them, or comics that are afraid to be what they are and choose to play it off as jokey. X-men kind of did it but they left out some of the more fantastical elements.

I hope conan shows some squad footage tonight.

Decent trailer. Looks like the film could be a bit overstuffed though. Cg looks a bit dodgy but obviously plenty of time to work on that. Really liking what I'm seeing from Affleck as Bats/wayne and the robin suit was a cool detail. Looks like we're getting the jesus shite again though. Hoping it decent and I'll be going to see it but its snyder so I'll keep my expectations in check. Especially after MoS.
 
He's literally the central conversation piece through most of that trailer. People reacting to him, people's thoughts on him, people talking to him...

He's a plot mechanism to put Batman in the movie. That's what he's reduced to. Saying he's 3rd wheels is me being nice.

I know they're going for a contemplative, conflicted look on Clark here, but I busted out laughing seeing this shot because it looks more like Clark thinking "What the hell are you talking about, mom? That's fucking dark Goddamn." in response to her "You don't owe this world a thing."

Batman half looks good, Superman half looks bad. No interest at all in Dawn of Justice but it's certainly got me interested in Affleck's Batman movie...

Zod only came to Earth because Kal El sent off the distress signal. Supes fucked up big time in MoS.

Which Superman couldn't have known.

And keep in mind the US Air Force was exploring the ice too. If Kal didn't activate it, humanity tinkering with the scout ship almost certainly would have.

He was coming no matter what.

So im assuming that is Jason Todds Robin costume. If there is a stand alone batman movie from Affleck then i could picture them introducing Tim Drake in it.

This also makes me really pumped to see what Affleck is going to do with the stand alone film. I never doubted him.

I can be so cynical at times, but this time I let myself go. I'm so darn excited for this film. Bruce Wayne running into that cloud of smoke was great imagery and as a New Yorker made me think of 9/11.

Robin's fucking dead already so Joker and Bats have a history together.

Wonder Woman looks badass

There was some type of underwater scene maybe it alludes to Aquaman.

It looks sooooo guuuud!

That's the hope.

I'd rather they just go straight to Damian though. Way more potential for interesting storytelling.

Still would've just preferred a MOS sequel, but I'm glad they're giving MOS-Superman more of a center in this movie.

Batman looks cool, and it'll be interesting to see this portrayal, but I'm not all that excited after how great the Nolan films were.

I have to say I kind of like the "asshole" Kents though. For them their own kid just comes first.

Let's not forget the rumor of DC courting the John Wick directors for a film. Red Hood would make perfect sense ;)

lol

Your brain would literally have to stop functioning to not see Superman and Kent are the same person in this universe.
I love in a movie about space aliens, superpowers and all sorts of fantastical shit... THIS is the thing people always seem to choose to have a difficult time believing could happen.

Clark Kent

Doesn't work. Bryan Singer got it when he said that there are actually 3 characters; Clark in Smallville, Clark Kent the stumbling journalist, and Superman. The "that's swell" Clark works so well as a disguise because it contrasts starkly with the towering Superman.

In many ways, the glasses are not the disguise but rather that characterisation. It was perfectly encapsulated with a scene in Superman Returns where Lois and Richard were having a conversation about how similar Clark looks to Superman. Lois describes the latter as being taller than Clark (because Clark hunches). Upon hearing of this brooding conversation, Clark 'stumbles' into the glass door causing the two to laugh at the ridiculous thought that they are one and the same.

I just think this is as fundamental to the character as Bruce being an orphaned child.

cavil is a rather poor actor.

Oh HELL no.

Damien is already hard pill to swallow considering as a ten year old he beat Deathstroke. He'd be laughed at on the screen if he showed up in a live action comic film
