A big as hell batman is what we deserve, it's what we need.
I know that it "has" to happen. But I have a feeling it won't even be Batman. Lex is gonna come out of nowhere with it in the third act, Batman joins Superman to take down Lex.
I just wish there was another way to do it. It's always kryptonite.

Wish I could subscribe to Empire but $70 to the US is quite steep.

There's too much cape going on

I'll take Snyder's comic book suit over this thing. Reminds me of George Clooney's Batman.

I hope the movie starts like this:
And that is what they are fighting over

I like how in every thread people keep reacting as if it's their first time seeing the suit.
(Does anybody have a .gif of him from the teaser trailer? Moving under the rubble? Can't find a good one.)
But no, guys, this terrible photoshoot is totally what it's gonna look like on film.

Lord, they look great. TDKR suit is my personal favorite.
It's crazy how close they got to the comic look...
(aside from the unnecessary texturing and lines)

Love how the cape flows over the shoulder. Sick.

so? it's one hastily put together pilot promotion photo.
all the ones since have been perfect
the guy i was quoting was implying that the supergirl costume looks good no matter what photo it's in

Fuck no, it's like a Frankenstein hybrid of batman forever and batman 89. It doesn't work imo, plus i think the black leather look is more of a 90s thing

I want a Batman costume that doesn't look overdesigned. Something simple. Something that looks like Batman and Alfred made it themselves in the Batcave and not a team of costume designers.
Something similar to (similar to, not exactly like):

Exactly. I've been saying it for ages. There is absolutely no way Batman could remotely win unless Sups was severely nerf.
Just look at this pro Batman folks. A bullet fired at near point blank range bounces off his eyeball. Superman doesn't even blink. Batman is hopelessly hilariously outgunned. Unless Batman has access to tons of Kryptonite there is not any scenario where he could win. It doesn't matter what he wears, how long he preps for. He's fucked.
i don't know it you read the comics or are just basing this off of other media but bats vs supes has come up several times and it's always less of "supes is super strong and can easily destroy bats" and more of "supes is trying to destroy bats but bats is outsmarting him and doing stuff that keeps the fight even"
in dark knight returns it was having a suit and
distracting him long enough for ollie to cripple him with a kryptonite arrow
in hush it was using a kryptonite ring to keep fighting and then moving the fight to the daily planet building where catwoman was about to push lois lane off of the roof
in endgame it was using a suit, and once that was destroyed letting supes hold him and get close enough to spit a kryptonite mixture into supes's eye

This fan made costume is already better than the movie's.

Both of those costumes are weird. Batman looks so damn goofy with his nonexistent neck and stubby little ears.

Yes please.
Massive improvement, seriously. Better in every way.

Every time Batman beats Superman in the comics it's because of writers giving him plot armor that makes Superman look dumb. Batman would not stand a chance against classic comic book Superman. Superman has beaten and outsmarted Lex Luthor literally hundreds of times and Lex is consistently portrayed as just as smart or smarter than Batman.

Looks just as bulky as the Batfleck suit if not moreso, and on top of that overly armored.

Spoiler: Batman is a ninja turtle.
Because Superman doesn't do push-ups.

Because he actually has to use his muscles, doesn't have cheat mode sun powers
Team batman all the way.

I'd reckon Superman's metabolism keeps his physique at a stable level, so he wouldn't have to train to become stronger physically. Batman's physique would come from years and years of training and action in the field, so he's at a human's physical peak. (I'm trying to find logic here, as I'm just taking a shot in the dark tbh.)
How's Superman supposed to build muscle?
Everyone knows that the porn parody suit is the best one
I've always disliked the long ears, like how's that even practical for fights? Short ears make more sense.
Yeah I know it's a suit for a porn parody but in AK the suit has long ears too.
Superman is never "trying to destroy Bats". Ever. Even when he's being mind controlled Superman is actively fighting against it to cause as little harm to Bruce as he possibly can.
And I wish people would stop bringing up TDKR. Frank Miller is a self-admitted Superman hater and portrayed one of the worst iterations of the character in order to service his Batman story.
People love to bring it up but no one ever mentions a possessed Batman literally radiating Kryptonite from his body with super powers still got beat.

Shouldn't have killed off Emil Hamilton. Now there's no one to build superman some machines and he lost his gains

That fanmade suit is quite hilarious and quite impractical. Made do the batman can't move the entire upper quadrant due to cape or high chance of falling over cape

Batman suit looks scary as fuck in that shot.
theatricality and deception, both powerful agents to the uninitiated.

No they are necessary to keep the suit from looking like Spandex or a leotard
Padding. Affleck does not look like that under there.

God forbid a superhero wear spandex.
I know right? Meanwhile Supergirl's costume looks flawless even in on-set pictures.
The Superman on set looks good too...
