Kevin Smith talks about Batman suit

 

?I talked about it on Hollywood Babble-On, but I have seen the suit. I did this Man Of Steel Yahoo, fan event when the DVD came out. I was hosting Zack Snyder was there, Amy Adams, we had Henry Cavill from satellite over in the UK, and you know it was all about Man of Steel. And at one point Zack talked a little bit about the future and Batman Vs Superman, but when the show was all done, Zack was all like ?Kev come here, come here?, and he takes me over to the corner and whips out his phone, and he shows me a picture of Batman. Live action version of Batman. A very familiar Batman, I might add. It didn?t look like any of the cinematic Batmans that have ever gone before. He shows me that picture and behind Batman?Superman in the suit looming in the distance. Both on a roof top kind of thing. It was on a set, a little set the put together for this photo shoot. So I was like ?Oh my god! Is that the suit?! The suit looks amazing! Did you get people to model it?? And he goes, ?That?s your boy.? And I look closely and it?s Ben Affleck wearing the suit. The suit, it is not mine to spill, in terms of what it looks like, you?ll see it. They?ll tell you when they want you to know, but any Batman fan is going to be F?ing pleased. I?m going to tell you that right now. They gave you the suit you all wanted to see.?

I think that could be close but I don't know about the tights. They're moving away from that old look, like how supermans doesn't have them anymore.

Wow, I hope that's not going to happen because it would delay the film even more :/

About the suit: Yeah, I don't think they'll be going that old-school either.

In fact, the story has been blasted by writer El Mayimbe from respected film site Latino-Review.

He tweeted: ?That Affleck threatening to quit claim is utterly RIDICULOUS.?

Mayimbe added: ?Affleck has a relationship at that studio that goes beyond the Batman role. Affleck has zero reason to play hardball with the WB.?

I'm willing to take my licks. I didn't think he could pull it off, either... and then he

went and aced it like a Boss.

WARNING ? Intense possible SPOILing OR just some fun bullsh*t going down:

  • The villians are Lex Luthor and Metallo
  • Batman forms a UN type deal to stop Superman from destroying another city
  • Aquaman is in it, but not called Aquaman. He?s there because the world engine in the ocean did something to the fish
  • Wonderwoman poses as a Wayne Enterprises investor to retrieve an item that belongs to her people.
  • Lex Luthor is in the shadows a lot, a manipulator. Not much face time with Superman.
  • Robin betrayed Batman at some point, leading to a falling out between them
  • The Batcave was super cool looking, and the mobile looked similar to Burton?s
  • Lois is investigating Lex.
  • Metallo ?kills? Clark
  • The Daily Planet is bought by Lex Luthor for PR purposes
  • At the end Superman is living in exile, and the Justice League is an government approved superhero team.

Take this all with a pinch of salt!

"I'm not wearing hockey pants."

One of my favorite lines. But yea, I can't see them going THAT old school.

pants? :rofl:

 

The line is "I'm not wearing hockey pads".

WW pretending to be someone else only to show her powers at the very end of the movie is something I expected so if a rumor points to her doing that for some reason then I'm leaning towards it being true at this point. I also expect batman being who he is to know the identities of most superheroes that show up.

I don't. While he is a detective, he needs something to detect.

That means he can't work on figuring out someone identity until he knows

they exist. And the movie made it clear that "Superheroes" aren't in the public eye.

Otherwise, when Aliens attacked you would have had people like Perry White

asking, "Where's the Flash, or Wonder Woman?"

Gal Gadot appeared on the Israeli entertainment show "Good Evening with Gai Pines" recently where she confirmed she is locked into a three movie deal when she signed on to play Wonder Woman in the upcoming "Batman vs. Superman" project at Warner Bros. Pictures.

Gadot is tipped to make around $300,000 for her role in the first film, with her filming commitments to begin in May.

It seems like the 3 movie deal is what everyone signs in the superhero movies nowadays. Also the $300,000 leads me to believe that her scenes are going to be small overall.

"According to the source, the plating is silver/white. The plates are attached to a black undercloth. The plates don't cover his entire body. We see the black undercloth at the joints. Supposedly, it looks incredible. Equally, or maybe even better-looking than the other suit and it?s leagues above and beyond Bale?s suit from what I?m told."

Not sure yet what to make of that to be honest but it sounds interesting for sure. It also made me think of this suit:

But yeah, that won't happen since it's not a "real" suit in the comic-books (readers of Detective Comic will know what I mean ;))

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
