Looks really bad. I can't stand Jesse Eisenberg's acting. So basically the movie is going to start off as superman vs. batman but then they are going to come together with wonder woman to fight off a greater evil. In doing so they are going to realize they aren't so bad. heh
 
I thought it looked pretty good. Not really feeling this incarnation of Lex though. Put me in the camp that would have preferred something closer to DCAU. Affleck is looking like he's going to kill it as Batman.
 
I think the true travesty here is the music chosen for the trailer. Who seriously chose that song and thought it was good because it fucking sucks and ruins the whole trailer.
 
Looks awful. Affleck looks better than I expected, but Eisenberg looks much, much worse than I expected. Zod is Doomsday? Ugh.

Why is Batman wearing a coat? Is that meant to be a ninja turtle style disguise?

Standard comic book "VS" procedure.

It was expected in the movie, but kind of a bummer the trailer is basically the whole movie without the details. All we have to see now is the action and reasons as to why. Kind of shitty.

Also, this is a shitty Lex Luther...
 
latest


?
I wouldn't be surprised if, as he gets more damaged, movie Doomsday grows more bone plating and spikes, eventually looking like comic Doomsday
 
I am way more interested in the Batman-Superman conflict in the beginning of the trailer than I am in the team up against a videogame-grade CGI baddie.

Wonder Woman looked fine. Luthor was godawful.

This Batman and his history in Gotham is what I am most interested in.
 
I liked the Bruce/Clark stuff though. Dialogue was whatever but them together is cool. I do wish Cavill would even PRETEND to hide as Clark

I did think that. Surely the world's greatest detective should solve that one in fractions of a second. I always thought Superman films did the 'disguise' very badly though, it's just glasses.

I think it is best to just ignore the whole disguise thing, given that it would never work in real life and any explanation will only seem dumb. You just ignore the obvious problems of comic heroes and hope that your movie is good enough so that the audience is not bothered by them.
 
If you need to use Doomsday, probably wise to lean into his more distinguishable features rather than turning him into just another big grey blob.

Eh, it'll still have more value than any forthcoming Marvel movie :P
 
I sadly have no desire to see the movie now based on this trailer. I feel like they revealed most of the movie plot through the trailer, which is never good. Suicide Squad and Star Wars: TFA did a better job of piquing my interest while keeping its cards close to the chest.

Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor is ok although not really Lex-like. I imagine we'll see him become bald by the end of the movie.
 
I can't help but wonder if they NEEDED to show Doomsday and the Batman/Superman teamup just so that they could show Wonder Woman in the trailer... that she really doesn't show up in that form before that point in the movie...
 
Whatshisface as Lex is bad casting.

And the end shot with Batman holding a gun is just... not right. IMO

Aside from that it looks great.

Christopher Reeves did it just fine
 
Nah I didn't really follow the movie outside maybe the teaser that was shown a few months ago? I didn't keep up who was being cast in this either nor kept up with any news outside the teaser/trailer. I really didn't know that Wonder Woman and Doomsday were going to be in this. I seriously just thought this movie was going to be Batman and Superman fighting it out and eventually forming up the Justice League out of some necessity that was going to be explained in the movie.

I see. Yeah, Doomsday has been speculated since the last trailer which also revealed Wonder woman. Personally, I'd have preferred that the film concentrate solely on Batman and Superman and eventually coming to understand why both are needed, without the cheap plot device of Doomday to force them together. The ideological differences between Supes and Batman is more than enough to drive the plot of a 2 hour film IMO.

So we get Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Flash in this one? Or do more characters pop up?

Just those 5 as far as I know, but I suspect Aquaman and Flash will make cameos, and Wonder woman a side character. To add a little spice to the plot, as Diana she'll probably be a love interest for Bruce Wayne, as Wonder woman she'll have the hots for Supes, leading to the 'She with you?.......I thought she was with you?' exchange
 
Do you know I forgot who Eisenberg's character was supposed to be?

Throughout the trailer I was thinking, "Who is this guy?".

I guessed riddler in the end.

But I'll be damned if he reminded me that he was Lex Luthor.

A tad hilarious nonetheless.

lol, I also thought he was suppose to be the Riddler. Glad I'm not alone.
 
Yep. Make it look like Doomsday. Even Jeremy Jahns and The Reel Rejects were all "Is that supposed to be Doomsday?"

Then people would be complaining even more. Doomsday likely evolves during the fight like he does in the comic. All people seem to remember is the image of him from the end of the fight but he doesn't look like that for the majority of the fight if I'm remembering correctly.
 
This GIF alone is troubling. There is so much unneeded CGI in this one shot. The emphasis should be on the three heroes and them alone. But to me, they're sharing it with the fog, sparks, particles, fire and so forth. Fucking weird.

it might be cool if they didn't have that DARKNESSNOPARENTS color tint to them.
 
Avatar remains the most expensive film ever made by quite some margin so I'm not sure that it's an appropriate benchmark.

Diminishing returns I guess, but I remember when there used to be a new CG benchmark every 2 years or so.

This CG from the BvS trailer was unfinished, with a spice of moderate effort at best.

Unfinished, for sure, but I'm skeptical it will look much better by release.
 
I sorta wish Doomsday in the movie had his green outfit and goggles in some form. he looked cool wearing that in the comics.
 
Avatar remains the most expensive film ever made by quite some margin so I'm not sure that it's an appropriate benchmark.

LOL, not true. AVATAR wasn't even the most expensive film ever made when it released. Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides had a production budget north of $370 million.

Avatar has been matched. WETA's work on DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES is the evolution of some of that AVATAR tech.

BVS looks very cartoony, the CGI looks like an extension of the direction Snyder took with MoS.
 
Christopher Reeves did it just fine

The disguise wouldn't hold for a day. It's just asinine to pretend that people could be fooled that easily. Reeves did his best, he generally did a great job in the Superman movies, but I think putting an emphasis on the disguise thing just points out how stupid it is.
 
horrible trailer. Un-did everything that I liked about the previous trailers.

I was coming in blind and had no idea that the ending was going to turn into a team up fight. I feel like I watched the whole movie.

Also what's with the lizard man creature? This is Amazing Spider-Man 2 all over again with all the enemies. In fact, if you replace Gwen Stacy's role with Superman, it kind of makes sense that the first half of the movie will be a lovers quarrel.

Fatman carrying a gun is the stupidest shit I've seen all year.

Eisenberg is going to steal the show.
