Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)


Recommended Posts

It looks really good!

I came here, because I saw your post pop up in the mini spy, only to find a normal comment and not a sneak peak advance of the film you've gotten me used to. We need to convice the debs to add a prefix, when you post a sneak peak and when you post a normal post :P

I am considering retracting my previous post about looking forward to this due to the lineup of actors which I have only just seen:

 

Batman - Ben Affleck - Hell no

Lex Luther - Jesse Eisenberg - No

 

I mean they managed to intice Henry Cavill back to be superman so why not Christian Bale as batman. :( sucks

 

Regarldess im sure it will be awesome, I just wish Christian Bale was in it

i hope i will be pleasantly surprised.... but i think pretty much every fan is hating this choice of actors!

When I first posted I hadn't bothered to look at the actors until I was in work the other day and one of my guys mentioned the movie so it prompted me to look and my god I was quite shocked!!!!

 

I hope to be surprised as well, Ben Affleck has had some good movies I will give him that but Im still not confident. And Jesse Eisenberg - I think I will hate him regardless in this sort of movie.

Bale was done at 3, it was clear and he's no Depp so they're not going to drop a big $50mil check in his hands to get him to come back.  There's also the fact that this Batman and that Batman aren't the same batman, we're talking two different movie universes here so it makes even less sense to keep the same actor.

 

Bens going to play it fine, haters can hate all they want but it's the same thing we keep hearing whenever they first post who's going to play some comic book hero only to  find out that hey, maybe directors actually know how to cast for their movies.   You guys don't think Bale didn't get some hate when they first posted he'd be the new batman in the reboot?   We all know Ledge as Joker was full of hate.   The marvel fans freaked out when they first heard RDJ was going to play Iron Man,  but look at them now, just spooning over him.    The list goes on, even all the way back to the first Batman movie with Keaton, what he can only do comedy wtfx is Burton thinking!   Well, we all should remember how that turned out, it turned out great.  

 

When all the complainers start to direct their own movies and make great casting moves, then yeah, I'll start to listen to them more but for now, move on, the Ben hate was months ago.

  We all know Ledge as Joker was full of hate.

Actually, after reading this comment I agree in part. When I first read Bale was going to be Batman I was thrilled but with the third Batman movie I was heavily disappointed in him with his acting skills for the batman part, too forced and too faked when he spoke, tbh it ruined his part.

 

And for Ledge, I had only seen him in basic movies before this so I thought this was going to be a very big role to live up to and he is now down as one of the most physiologically fuuuuuuuuuucked members of the cinema world due to his acting and sheer disengagement with humanity which is amazing AND unexpected.

Bale ######ed up several times as mentioned above, BUT he did pull off two out of three at least for me so I still have hope for Affleck

One of the things I remember when they first said Bale was going to be batman was fans reacting with things like , "he's too short!" and or "He's not big enough/built enough to play Batman!"   Stuff like that. 

 

Anyways, it's good to see little bits leaking out here and there but I don't want too many spoilers etc.

    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/  
    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
