It's great because in the comic-books Luthor always believes Superman is a dangerous threat to mankind, and now he actually has a leg to stand on to justify having his own supporters.

after all the shit Superman went through in MoS? yeah, there's no way that power armor "leveling the playing field" makes any sense.

Especially considering Kryptonian technology is 100,000 years ahead of humanity. Seriously. The most powerful nation in the history of mankind had its military get utterly SHITSTOMPED by Zod using Civilian grade equipment.
Yet, Batman can build a suit that can take on the Last Son of Krypton?
Okay, :lol
It's probably going to play out with Bruce throwing everything he has and Clark being momentarily stunned at worst. He'll probably shrug everything off.
Or maybe Bruce figures out a way to weaponize kryptonian atmospheric properties.
Or maybe this will be more an emotional battle. Or a rap battle!

I still hope they end up using whatever the kryptonian guns and robots used as weapons as their in-universe kryptonite. Clark already has his "invincibility" and the droid managed to cut him when he was attacked on the ship, and the weapons later managed to knock him down at the exploded gas station. if they go for something else like glowing green rocks when they already have weapons that can hurt him shown on screen I'll be a little disappointed.

Exactly! It's preposterous. You can't simply craft some armor to reach Superman/godlike status.
Kryptonite. Build an armor with Kryptonite and everything is level at the very least. Or exploit Supes' other weakness, but I doubt Batman can harness the power of magic on such short notice.
The suit is probably based on that Kryptonian tech. Not like there isn't tons of it lying around Metropolis now.
Have people forgotten that Zod died on Earth and they have access to his Kryptonian suit? No way that doesn't fall into both Luthor and Bruce's hands, and end up getting reverse engineered.
They probably both make anti-Superman suits.

Zod's suit is made out of a material found only on Krypton. I doubt human scientists could synthesize something to halfway replicate it

Batman was more than capable of handling supes in the DKR, so it isn't like there isn't precedent for them having a decent battle, especially if this is older, wiser batman vs a supes that just came into his own.
You're grasping at straws... you're setting limits that never were explicitly mentioned anywhere.
Chances are that's how he manages to build a suit to resist Superman.
TDKR had so many contrivances for that fight to "half work" that it would be a big cop out if something similar happens in BvS. Batman would have to nuke a city, for starters.
There was years and years of prep work involved to pull that fight off.
But it's not important. They'll just do whatever they want anyway whether or not it makes any sense.

Kryptonite doesn't exist in MoS universe, best equivalent was the krypton atmosphere.

DKR Batman fought supes by taking advantage of the fact that supes took it easy on him out of respect for their years of friendship. It was the equivalent of a child play fighting with their parent and getting a lucky kick in the balls

Tony Stark did it and took on Thor...with a box of scraps
Oh lord! Just fast forward me to March 2016. These actors involved really seem to be excited.

The curious thing about the interview is that he mentions he never met with Cavil or Ezra Miller. Safe to assume that the people he met with are in the same scene with him or am I looking into this too much?
If aspects of the leaked script are true where
Superman dies, I can see his involvement at the end of the movie where all the heroes are gathered at Superman's funeral.

Unfortunate moment to scratch his left leg with his right foot - makes it seem like Batfleck skips leg day.
His biceps are legit bigger than his calves.
I just realized that all the guys cast so far outside of Ezra Miller are fucking huge. All 6ft+ and all are Hemsworth sized if not bigger.
They'd probably be able to lift the Batmobile if they did it together lol.

What leaked script?
I only heard of a fake script that someone eventually took credit for. Nothing that was leaked. Even that didn't get very far as no one really believed it.

Happy for Fisher. He does seem really excited and so does everyone else. I'm really interested to hear from Ezra Miller on Flash. I think he will do a great job. Overall I really want the DCU to be successful. It being great means good movies for everyone.

I'm sure Irons will be a great choice as Alfred. Totally agree on Oldman as well. I hear his voice as Jim when I'm reading Bat books these days.
No ... Supes can be flying and flash be moving too fast ... so they can added to the scene in post.
Huh? More like a snake playing with a tiger who played rope a dope long enough to get a killshot in.
I can only hope!
According to Batman-on-film we may be getting a trailer in December. It may be attached to the last Hobbit.
The trailer focuses on Batman.

I think they should just release the comic con trailer. It's pretty badass

I can buy it. Yeah.
I'd expect it to be a teaser.
Kind of like the Man of Steel one
A voice over with some flowery images.
But this movie.. for me is new ground. We have a general idea what a summer movie marketing looks like, but March?
It depends on what kinda teaser they want. If they're gonna show off something like the Man Of Steel teasers with TDKR or the one from Comic Con, then yeah, they can totally do it. They've been shooting for the last few months, and they can easily have a 1:30 minute trailer ready.

Is the SDCC teaser too short and vague for the average movie goer?

It has Batman and Superman, two of the most iconic comic book heroes of all time, in an epic staredown.
EVERYONE will understand what's implied in that teaser.

I wouldn't listen to BoF. He desperately tries to stay relevant and pretend he has reliable insiders. Just recently he asserted Wonder Woman is Kryptonian and would be Kal's sister or cousin. This was after the producer of the movie already confirmed she's the daughter of Zeus and a demigod.
It would be cool to have a trailer though with The Hobbit.
The problem with that teaser is that it's probably not part of the film.

Sure would make for a nice xmas/new years gift.
This. As exciting to see that trailer was I wasn't under any illusion that was in the film. It looks like something made just for comic con to show off the possible style and tone of the film.
