There's still time to polish the CGI, this isn't coming out for another year, normally all the CGI is wrapped up in post production.  I think they just did a quick job for the trailer.   Personally, CGI issues aside, I think it's fine.  If they don't touch it up by it's theatrical release, there's always the BluRay version, it's not the first or last time a studio goes back and tweaks movies for their BD releases.

If the movies are part of a big DC family, Batman v. Superman is the older, more mature sibling on which the weight of responsibility falls. Suicide Squad is the bratty little kid, chewing bubble gum and tagging walls.

At first Bats and Sups didn't exactly get along, and they've had their moments since, so that's not new. This isn't the Super Friends.

The heat vision was probably Zod, but both were tearing ass through the cities.

I'm wondering of the crisis that pulls them together is the Atlantean-Amazon war from Flashpoint?

It was started by assassination of Amazon Queen Hippolyta at the (partly political) wedding of Arthur and Diana. Garth, an ally of Arthur, was blamed but that wasnt the case.

It would be really too much if they introduced an alternate universe in the movie that's supposed to establish the 'regular' universe. I'm thinking it's probably Lex and his machinations that unites them.

They don't have to introduce all of Flashpoint, or even Flash, just the war and the runup to it.

 

Wasn't there rumors of a bunch of cameos/teasers of other heroes like Flash though?  Or are we just going to get a glimpse of Aquaman, though that's still a rumor as well I think?

I'm posting this video because if it's true, that's amazing. But it's only a fan theory that AngryJoe seems to want to believe (like I want to believe, it would be awesome, seriously) - BUT beware of possible spoilers if it is true. POSSIBLE SPOILERS IF TRUE I REPEAT:

 

WARNING: Video contains swearing.

What's more exciting than watching Batman and Superman square off on the big screen for the first time? Task Force X apparently! In a surprising turn of events, the Comic-Con trailer for Suicide Squad has overtaken it's Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice counterpart on YouTube views - despite being released a whole two days later. Currently, the David Ayer helmed film is sitting on over 36.1 million views on the popular video sharing website, while BVS has only 34.9 million.

Glad to hear that. Despite Man of Steel being a terrible introduction to these movies, at least on paper, DC seems to be taking a bit more creative approach -- the directors aren't just hired nobodies, and the story isn't just the same recycled turd over and over again. Suicide Squad could be the most refreshing take on these movies exactly because it's not just Random Hero fighting Cheesy Villain Counterpart. As a matter of fact, that's the most interesting aspect of BvS as well.

I have to think that WB and DC have a plan laid out for how they want these movies to tie into each other, unless they decide to just figure that out after the fact, but I don't think so, I think SS and BvS will be linked in some fashion and events in both will play into the next solo Batman movie as well.  The strongest rumor out there right now, or at least one that I think is more likely, is that the suit was Jason Todds and the solo batman movie we're going to get is going to borrow from the Red Hood arc and Todds return etc. 

 

I really hope WB/DC can work everything together, as far as how they introduce other heroes like Flash, GL, Aquaman and bring them all into the big JL movie.  Heck, the best thing would be to have cameos or maybe a bit more than just a cameo from one of the trinity members in future flash, GL movies to not only tie things up but also give those movies a boost.

I wouldn't mind it. It's time for them to acknowledge the Robin's in the movies properly, and I'm really glad that so far they're doing that. Seeing Jason Todd in person in the movie will be a HUGE deal for me!

    • Why it's almost impossible to produce a smartphone in the United States

      Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.

      Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.

      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
