Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)


Recommended Posts

There's quite a few easter eggs in the trailer. Red Son Batman for starters, a Robin costume covered by Joker graffiti for another. At least I think it was a Red Son reference and pretty sure it was a Robin costume I saw :D

 

Either way, that was a really good trailer. Gal Gadot (I think that's how you spell her name) looked great as WW and I thought Jessie Eisenberg was fine as Lex, especially with how they are portraying him in the movie. As usual since I'm old and stuff, I don't have any problem with Affleck as Batman. Hell I remember when Keaton was cast as Batman and everyone went ape ###### and that was before the internet. Now everyone loves Keaton as Batman.

 

Also, that last scene they show with Batman rising out of the Batmobile and standing toe to toe with Superman - epicness.

He'll probably be bald by the end of the movie...hopefully.

 

I've been working on my own version of Superman in comic form and that's how I went about making him bald and hating Supes. He's basically infected with kryptonite in my version and requires round the clock medical care, mostly blood transfusions. He's actively trying to get Superman's blood to cure himself. I really should finish it one day. Drawing it was half the fun :)

Not impressed with the new trailer. I don't understand why Batman is old and yet Lex Luthor is young - it would have made more sense to cast Bryan Cranston, as Jesse Eisenberg looks out of his depth. The CGI is really poor

For a second I thought that was Nicolas Cage

Actually I am pretty sure that is Jeffrey Dean Morgan

 

Who was also in Watchman which was also directed by Zack Snyder.

 

I could very well be wrong but I am thinking he is playing Bruce Wayne father in a flash back when he and his wife were murdered.

So, I'm excited, I don't think Batman's age is an issue, I wouldn't put him in his 50s, I think he's a bit younger, while this does play homage to dark knight returns it's not that story, and I doubt it borrows anything from it other than the main fight, so batman shouldn't be as old as he is in that comic.  I think he's in his 40s, otherwise how do they keep doing batman movies after this?  He can't be too old, but can't be too young either, so 40s sounds good to me. 

 

As for the story and WWs part in is and all that stuff, all I can do is guess at this time, but I'm thinking the government gets in bed with lex, some plan goes sideways, bigger threat comes up, after or in the middle of the batman v superman fight, which will have them team up and also brings in WW, so they should all be fighting the same enemy by the end.

I hate Zack Snyder's visual style. The shot with the rocket from this trailer looks like the one from the oil rig from Man of Steel. Incredibly fake. I don't get his need to add godawful CGI shots in movies that otherwise strive to have a gritty, realistic visual style. Either make a 300 or a Bourne, but for crying out loud, don't mix it up.

this... its just over stylized 

I think the film will look great, it doesn't come out for another year, they're going to keep working on the CGI and other post-production work.   I think it looks great, then again I don't have a problem with Snyders style, it's his own, I can respect that.

That was indeed Jason Todd's Robin costume. And he looked like Red Son Batman, but even more like the Batman from Gotham by Gaslight. I like the fact that Ben Affleck is Batman a lot. It means that Batman is experienced so we'll be seeing him in much more dire situations than in previous movies.

And yeah, I had goosebumps throughout the whole trailer! :D

    • The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair
    • If he hasn't been able to figure that out, then why is he obsessed with tariffs? Because that's one of the most prominent tools to level the playing field when you have high cost of labor.
    • Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft released the newest preview update (C-release) under KB5095093. Alongside those, Microsoft also released new dynamic updates. For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery process in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, which are also called Safe OS updates. The dynamic updates also affect the Setup file binaries in the form of Setup updates. These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2. This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11. The company writes: "KB5095186: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, version 26H1: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.28000.2335. KB5102558: Setup Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to Windows setup binaries or any files that setup uses for feature updates in Windows 11, version 24H2 and Windows 11, version 25H2. KB5095615: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.26100.8737." Microsoft notes that both the Recovery and Setup updates will be downloaded and installed automatically via the Windows Update channel.
