Suicide Squad Trailer, too! - Batman v. Superman Trailer (Comic-Con 2015)

Suicide Squad Trailer... kinda not good.

Okay, so... that was pretty good, IMO.

I'm completely sold on Affleck, now. I wasn't ever against him, but he straight up looks the part perfectly here.

Eisenberg is still a no. That "the red capes are coming" line is just cringe-worthy.

Gadot I'm still not happy about. She just isn't a good enough actor to play Diana, IMO. Still, I reserve the right to change my opinion later on.

I love Martha Kent. "You don't owe this world a damn thing. You never did." Bless her.

It's nice to see Irons in his costume, although, it's going to be hard to beat Caine.

As always, Cavill is the best Superman we've ever had.

I wish they whited-out Batman's eyes when he's in his normal costume, though. He looks weird...

That's basically all I have to say. Thoughts?

Edit: I've started making gifs from the trailer. Use 'em if you want.

Spoiler

"It's like a less violent 'Passion of the Christ'." - IGN

"I'm not locked in here with you."

"YOU'RE LOCKED IN HERE WITH ME!"

Man, he looks awesome as Batman.

Side note: Batman: The Killing Joke Animated movie coming next year.

Wonder Woman seemed really out of place.

Girl of Mystery · July 11, 2015, 02:28:52 PM

i wonder who pitched the idea of casting eisenberg

Agreed. Especially in her Wonder Woman costume. I could understand her being a political figure, being at Wayne's parties and shit. That might've been interesting.

But nah, we gotta have a shitty action scene that she has no idea how to play.

I mean, he could pull it off, visually.

I just don't think he can portray "the smartest man on the planet". I'd love to see All-Star Superman's Luthor on the big screen.

And holy FUCK does Batman look like Rorschach at 2:40

YES.

TB · July 11, 2015, 02:36:08 PM

Looks pretty awesome.
That line from Martha was top notch.

TB · July 11, 2015, 02:37:19 PM

and yea dunno why WW is in there.

Coomer · July 11, 2015, 02:37:36 PM

It looks like they're going to try to cram a mini origin story for Batsy too which they really don't need

Along with Wonder Woman and Lex Luthor, it seems like the movie will be too busy and end up being Spiderman III

That Batman grappling scene was so cool, man.

I'm actually amped for this movie now, even though we all know Batman is going to curbstomp Supes because he's more popular.

lol Yes!
It's kind of unfortunate but I guess they have to dumb down Superman or else that comic of .000001 seconds into the fight with Bats in the sun would come true.
I'm excited to see it now.

I don't know about an "origin story" for Bats. I mean, having one flashback to his parents death doesn't constitute an origin story. TDKR did it perfectly - just one scene that demonstrates his initial motivation.

Though you could be right, look at the 2:00 mark. You see, presumably, Jason Todd's old suit that he was killed in. Some people think it's Grayson, but I'm sticking with Todd until further evidence pops up.

Well if it was me, I would have just came up with a storyline where they don't necessarily fight, but where Bats gets the advantage over him multiple times. Like, outsmarting him like he did the the DCAU.

Find a place where they can have mutual respect for each other.

I don't get it either, but he's a staple of the Justice League. And if it comes down to it, John Stewart>Hal Jordan.

That's exactly it. DCAU was awesome in that respect. Those moments that showed Bats could not only keep up with the rest but sometimes outperform the rest with his intellect. Which makes so much more sense.
But alas... big explosions!

I wasn't specifically talking about Hal. The Green Lantern Corps in general are lolworthy.
They're like the Fantastic 4 of the DCverse.

Well the whole walking back to Wayne Manor and the training montage bit kinda points to it

At least there will be a part about his early days as Batman since they do talk about the rise of a Bat vigilante

But alas... big explosions!

Essentially. I mean, the DCAU is virtually flawless, and I think Batman being "the only one" capable of dodging Darkseid's Omega Beams is a bit of a stretch, but that version of Batman is definitely where they should be drawing inspiration. Not The Dark Knight Returns fuck-face.

They need to show Batman out-thinking Superman, but not in a way that makes Superman look like a dumbass. If they did that, they'd need to have a Superman have some pretty smart dialogue and display his calculative prowess like in the New 52.

[Blank]Corps are shit, every last one of them. I don't understand the appeal at all.

I was simply saying that if I had to have a Green Lantern in my movie, it would be Stewart over Jordan any day of the week.

Not at all impressed by Eisenberg's Lex Luthor, but it looks really good so far.
