There were jokes in MoS. They were just bad and executed very poorly that people never noticed or remembered.
He ain't a villain. He's serving a purpose perfectly suitable for him - a big meathead monster for Superman (and friends) to hit for the ending.
Yeah, precisely. I was hoping for that.
My condolences.

People keep saying this, but i'm betting it's the opposite. Obviously the team-up was going to happen with something, so the only surprise to come out of this trailer was Doomsday being the catalyst.
Most of the new footage outside of the party are very small bits of scenes they've already shown other small bits from. They're holding back.
Like others, i'm not feeling this trailer either. But mostly because of the silly tone. I don't expect it to be representative of the film.
It feels like they're trying to do grimdark + marvel comedy and it just doesn't mix at all.

Would have been perfect if it ended with Superman's "She with you?" question. Of course Snyder can't control his inner hack and had to put Batman's dumb retort "i thought she was with u???", as if the audience is braindead cluster of zombies.

He's a mindless killing machine who doesn't talk or move a plot forward. There's no depth behind him other than he wants to kill Superman. Other than his pure strength, he's about the dumbest choice they could have for Justice League. You want a character with depth and reasoning... not a walking tank.
If it ends up worse than Man of Steel I will cry.
I couldn't care less about the people who already want to hate this movie. This will be so much fun.
I'm not surprised.

Oh, people understand it. They just think it's a bad idea because it isn't a more endearing character idea then what Lex was in the first place.

Still not sold on Lex. Will have to see.
Some of the dialogue was a little too cheesy for my liking.
Overall I liked the trailer. I can probably map out the entire plot of the movie pretty accurately but most of us could have months ago. It's about the journey for this one
SDCC trailer was definitely the stronger of the two though

Everyone's complaining about the lack of Spider-Man and the second a trailer drops with him in it everyone will get upset because they had the surprise ruined

This is all making assumptions about what the key scenes are, or how the "VS" in Batman vs Superman is portrayed, from a movie nobody has seen.
Great line. Beginning of trailer was good. Latter not so much. Agree it was badly cut, and it sort of deflated the tension. :\
Like, I dunno, Lex fucking Luthor?

It takes some inspiration from TDKR mainly some visual nods but this is an original story not an adaptation of TDKR.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
So you want this movie to be immune from all criticism.
I enjoyed the last trailer and had no problems with the tone. This...looked rough.
Here's what will happen. No matter what, a few days or a week before this comes out, some people will post early impressions on Twitter...they'll all be positive. The OT will go up here and in a rush to validate this movie, they'll be a title like 98% Fresh based off those early impressions. Then the score will go down. We'll either have a decent blockbuster film or a complete train wreck. We've done this song and dance so many times before.I had my fingers crossed for the first, but if I had only seen this trailer, I'd bet on the second.
People have different opinions. This could just be a badly cut trailer. That happens. We've gotten fantastic trailers for shitty films, trailer making is an art in itself these days. So the trailer automatically isn't some barometer of the overall quality of a film. But sometimes you can see hints of issues. I disliked the trailer. I'm not completely put off on seeing the movie, but I'm a bit more apprehensive now.
Who said it was following Dark Knight Returns?
It's a trailer for a movie. What is it confused about? It has some humorous moments, action and dialogue. I personally thought it all flowed well.
Doomsday is NOT some big spoiler. Please don't believe that. When Zod was shown in the first trailer is was the logical conclusion many made if you know anything DC.

Was gonna say. He's much more... up-tempo than Zuckerberg was.

My assumptions that Doomsday is a villain or that the trio comes together?
Eh I appreciate the liberties they have taken considering about 60% of Marvel movie villains have been discount Lex Luthors so far

Was excited for this movie before this trailer.
-Doomsday has that blatant "Super CGI" look
-Costuming for the leads with the dark dress shirts is terrible

Pretty much
If only they took a page out of Star Wars: The Force Awakening trailer. Leave the audience wanting more.
That's actually the last scene of an okay movie. The rest is shit.For what? An awesome movie?

I didn't know I was supposed to be auditioning for your approval. Anyway, yes: I understand superheroes, and superhero storytelling conventions pretty well. I might not have a byline at Comics Alliance or have worked for Gary Groth at any point, but I've got a decent enough working understanding that discovering Superman and Batman team up to fight a modified/altered version of Zod isn't much of a discovery at all - especially after watching THE FIRST TRAILER which points DIRECTLY TO THAT.
No. That is incorrect. Discovering Doomsday is the big bad Lex is unleashing doesn't "give away the plot" at all.
This trailer, weirdly edited and tonally scattered as it is, doesn't let the audience know anything it couldn't have/wouldn't have guessed on its own via basic paying of attention. Which is fine, because nobody's really going to Batman v. Superman to get their wigs blown by twisty-turny Usual Suspects-level storytelling.
It'd be nice if they did. And if they were, this trailer didn't spoil any of that. These are big, fat, loud, obvious points for a movie called Batman v Superman to hit. I'm willing to believe there's more to this 2 1/2 hour movie that Chris Terrio wrote than just what we saw in the trailer.
People have no fucking clue about Lex Luthor outside of Clancy Brown.
The biggest problem DC is going to have going forward is that people actually know who their characters are and have had exposure. Marvel throws anything on the screen and everyone loves characters they have no clue about because they like RDJ as Iron Man.
Zack? More like Hack amirite? Hahahahaha

Doomsday Smallville vs Doomsday DoJ
Who wins?
Who wins?
Thought this was a cool shot with the mouth lighting up. This is what Batman dodges from the 2nd trailer.
That shot legit looks like Unreal Engine 4 demo.
Yeah I think they are just trying to win over a younger crowd with this trailer.
I want this movie badly, but I enjoyed the last 2 trailers a lot more. Can't wait for the midnight showing.
BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!
