Batman vs Superman: World's Finest Three-Year Wait

I hope her powers (and origins, I guess) are the only things they get from New52 Wonder Woman. I don't like that character's personality, but removing her bands when shit gets real appeals to my inner anime nerd.
Maybe it's an alternate Twitter handle of El Mayimbe.

No he didn't. Deadline reporting on something they're calling a way-early preliminary rumor isn't the same as an announcement.

He also says Harrison is still involved, so yeah, I'm not sold on his "credibility". Especially since even the Pratt stuff is just rumors.

Again - dude gets maybe one or two trailers coming through wherever it is he works every now and again, and is basically bullshitting and putting a lampshade on his head the rest of the time.

Maybe it's just wishful thinking and the wait getting to me, but I have a feeling we might get something soon. Even if only an interview. Some new info has to be around the corner by now.
I agree. The hype needed for this movie to success can't exist only by word of mouth. They need a train, they have the means to do it, but they really need to get the mainstream's mindshare just like Disney did with their SW trailer. On the other hand, Avenger's train is very quiet, I don't see it being the super mega blockbuster it was supposed to be, not for the media frenzy anyway.
Is there a reason you always write "comicbook dot com" instead of "comicbook.com"?

So it doesn't get converted into a link that people can click
Flashpoint Paradox WW is the best WW. So freaking badass. Actually even WW from Superman/Batman Apocalypse is badass as well.

That move from the 30th to the 44th second... So good!

at the point where every bump is hopefully a trailer 
Think the optimal thing to do is drop a batman/supes teaser before april, then debut wonder woman later in the year.

At this point, the optimal thing would be to give us a weekly tidbit like they did with Smash Bros.

"You Must Recover, Batman!"
With so many great heroes in the DCU, Batman can get the short end of the stick sometimes. He doesn't have any powers; he can't even fly!
Not to worry though! The Caped Crusader has can still get to great heights thanks to his trusty grappling hook.
Look at it. So sleek. So efficient. No wonder it's one of his most famous gadgets!

I think there were a few times in JL and JLU that Batman just grapple gunned the sky and swung off screen

you're remembering that differently than it actually went. he broke her wrist, burned her face, had her on the run, only reason she wasn't killed was because she killed Max Lord.
Pretty sure Batman has powers right now in Justice League hahah
Also since nothing else to talk about, the trailer scooper...

If there's one thing I expect, it's that this movie will have the most godly teaser ever. Hands down.

Tyrese stop it. Might as well cast Shemar Moore as Bronze Tiger.

He even posted a picture of himself with Christian Bale, calling him "my hero". Doesn't he know Affleck is the man in charge now? You're sucking up the wrong tree, Tyrese.
The best way to ensure you get cast in your dream role is to publicly campaign for it and shove it in people's faces. Just ask Sean Young.

Shemar Moore lol, Morris Chestnut was too busy.

Im sure Batman could make some jetpack thing if he wanted.
And his cape can glide btw.
Batman as a character is definitely flawed though once you take him outside of Gotham. He clearly has the means and intellect necessary to assemble a much better suit with fewer limitations. "Batman can't fly," pfft, why not? Why doesn't Bruce have basic flight as an ability when he has access to so much tech in the DC universe? Bruce could be mopping up Gotham in a lightweight power armor, like Terry's in Batman Beyond. There's no reason he couldn't seriously up his tech game unless the story is confined solely to Gotham and Batman. In Gotham, Batman can be a man in a cloth costume and it works!

It's just this guy on twitter called @bosslogix who's making them, feeding off of Tyrese's mental illness.

"If Tyrese might be cast as John Stewart, you MUST not criticize him and give him a chance (as you can tell, he's very serious)."

Didn't he get a Lantern ring for, like, 1 issue? Before they realized it was a terrible idea
Where did that quote even supposedly come from?

the suit's been upgraded from cloth for a long time now. also, I don't think cleaning up Gotham is his goal. I think he would go crazy if he did.

for one panel of one issue hal Jordan let Bruce try out the ring to see what it feels like.
he couldn't really handle it.

No, I think it was longer than that.
Fake edit: Ah, here we go. Looks like it was a one-shot, elseworld kinda deal. Anyone ever read it?

It seems pretty debatable. She definitely wasn't trying to kill him,
she could have ended it there if she had wanted to
she's holding back a little
could have killed him here with her sword or crown
In supe's* favor she did have a little bit of kryptonite she used once in the fight
I think supes could take her easy without her items, but with them she is atleast equal if not able to take him out.
I feel like they won't go that way since seemed to hedge so much on Lois and Superman in Man of Steel.

I don't think this is their plan in the DCCU and I'll be surprised if it's still that way post convergence. There's just too much supes simpin' and awkward embraces in the comics with Lois that they can't keep this up much longer.
Didn't Adams pretty much say that there wouldn't be a love-triangle between Lois, Superman and Wonder Woman? I could be misremembering.
