Suicide Squad.

Leto doesn't give a fuck about WB ninjas it seems.

I'm pretty excited for Suicide Squad. I actually find it to be the most intriguing comic film on the horizon. It's the only one that feels like a truly unknown entity.

So excited for it.

if the Leto's Joker was the one who broke Batman and made him go "cruel"
if he killed Robin/commissioner Gordon ect
then WB is insane to not having a Batman solo movie after BvS and Suicide Squad.

I agree. I'd much rather see an aged Batman solo flick in this universe than BVS at this juncture. Like, I'd rather see a solo follow up, with BVS following that up.
 
MoS Supes was able to fly in a Kryptonian like atmosphere under the World Engine (which should render him as weak as a normal human) that is still a deus ex machina stuff.
If 10 hypothetical Kriptonians all arrived on earth at Clarks age would they have all turned out so powerful?

Ugh... the idea of
both those characters being dead
right at the start is super fucking disappointing.
 
it's like you didn't even read my post. He hasn't been portrayed as that strong in a long fucking time. Most certainly not in Man of Steel.
That's Pre-Crisis Superman. He hasn't been able to pull off such BS in a looooong time. They rebooted him in the 80s to be far less powerful. Superman nowadays can't even breath in space by himself.
Ok so he may not be able to sneeze away a galaxy but even in Mos he should be able to man handle batman who was manhandled by Baine if we're sticking to the movies.

Do you really expect Batman to just wing it when confronting Supes?

Depends. If
Gordon
is dead, fuck that, but if
Jason Todd Robin
is dead, I can live with that. That would mean
Red Hood
is within possibility.

We're not. So right there that goes out the window. This is the first time we'll see this particular Batman. Whatever his strengths are, we haven't see it. And the golden rule of comic book fights is the winner is whoever the writer decides. It's comics.

lol do you think any time Batman and Superman have fought, it's been presented as a fair fight? It's Batman pulling out every trick he has, every contingency, going for whatever cheap shot he can get in so that he can stand a ghost of a chance against a guy who doesn't even want to fight him. Whether it be super powerful armor, kryptonite, or having Wonder Woman back him up,

I'd love if that were the case, but I think a set shot revealed
Dick's gravestone.
Not sure if it's been confirmed. Either way, fuck that. WB is so fucking cowardly about portraying
Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, etc. Hell, does this lock the movies out from having Damian too?
Just... ugh...

You're not even sticking to the same continuity. The Batman of MoS's universe might have never fought Bane, or if he has this Bane might have had Venom that made him nearly as strong as Supes. Also, keep in mind that once Bane manhandled Batman, Batman got better and manhandled him back.

But most obviously, you're assuming that Batman is going to make this a fair fight in the first place, or that Superman will pull out all the stops, or any hundreds of reasons that could potentially result in Superman losing.

It amazes me how often people forget that fiction does not play by the same rules as reality. I could potentially write a story where a 12 year old blind girl kicks the ass of Myke Tyson in his prime up and down the street. I could write a story where a nigh omnipotent God is legitimately defeated by an ordinary squirrel. Power only carries you so far. In fact, if anything, the more outwardly powerful force usually loses to the underdog. David beats Goliath. Knights slay the dragon. The timid Hobbit is the reason Sauron falls. Luke is was an ordinary kid that managed to take down the death star, and later the empire. Harry Potter is a slightly above average wizard at best that takes down Magic Snake Hitler with ordinary spells. I could go on and on. It's a story that's been told since the beginning of time.
 
Did you miss the
graveyard
leak? Or did I miss it being shown to be fake? It showed
Dick's grave.

I'd love if that were the case, but I think a set shot revealed
Dick's gravestone.

Just found out about this. Well fuck man, idk.... Hope it's a red herring but... fuck...
 
I have tickets to the BvS thingy tomorrow. I was gonna pass on going (since the trailer leaked) but if they are giving away those posters, I may change my mind.

Anyone know if that is the case?

You'll get some goodies and a slightly longer trailer (10 seconds) I think.

There's supposed to be a "little bit of swag" and some extra footage, so it's probably worthwhile going.

Edit:
An hour late to a question already answered. I'm stupid.
 
Marvel did that.

But yeah, they will make the logic believable enough to be enjoyable. Superman will likely just be playing defense and weakened.

The real thing that makes Superman OP in this scenario is his super speed. If Batman has a counter to that, Superman's strength has been nerfed enough that it's more plausible than people realize.

Superman struggled with an oil derrick in Man of Steel. He's struggling holding a rocket in the BvS trailer. This isn't the Superman that can punch planets to death or lift islands.

Warner Bros would never character assassinate Batman by making him go "cruel" or whatever.
 
Holy shit at that batman poster, this batman is like Jim Lee, miller and Arkham Origins combined

Christ, you could fool somebody by telling them that was comic book art
 
I put this together to see all of the main live action cowls lined up. I think Affleck's is the closest to the comic standard:

Now if we could only get the full unobstructed view of the Batfleck cowl.
 
I've always liked the 2 Keaton suits but BvS is definitely the best. Thing is beautiful.

I never had any love for the Begins one but I remember being really excited when they revealed the first picture of the TDK suit. The reception to that one was very mixed from what I recall. I thought it was great but it probably had something to do with the hype I had for TDK (which was insurmountable), though the suit looks terrible when photographed at certain angles. And I hate the bulb head.
 
the Keaton suit is too stiff, so far in looks BvS suit is the most comic book accurate. I really like the Begins suit.
 
At least wait until we see her in action. The 180 on Ledger, Affleck and I believe Robert Downey Jr got shit as well should be enough for people to know better and wait these things out.

Yeah. I hope I eat crow. I will be super happy if she pulls of an amazing wonder woman.
