why do I have the feeling that this movie will be corny.
- because comic books?monospaced
- lots of comicbook movies arent corny. this one looks like it will be though. because zack snyder, not because of comicbooks.CygnusZero4
- I was being sarcasticmonospaced
- Because they are two different types of heroes. Does anyone really think that Batman can beat or hang with the man of steel?utopian
- no way, man of steel can just melt him with his laser beam eyesmonospaced

- The suit is taken right from the comics that Wayne created for this very confrontation:
http://comicartcommu…ETM - Problem is, in the story line, Wayne was much older at this point and from what I have seen so far, only a few elements of Miller's story is being adapted.ETM
- Link above truncated. Her's another:
http://media.comicbo…ETM - Ben looks about 45-50 from what I've seen. Hardened, a few gray hairs on the sides. How much older would you want him to look? Like 80?...kona
- I disagree. He looks 40s to me.ETM
- Also Wayne was 55 in the book. He was retired from being Batman.ETM

"Source: Press Release
Legendary comics creator and noted lunatic Frank Miller will reportedly return to DC Comics to pen a third installment in his Dark Knight series. Miller's 1986 grimdark masterpiece, The Dark Knight Returns, has set the tone for grim and gritty superhero comics for the past thirty years (just see the trailer for Batman v. Superman for evidence). The 2001 follow-up, The Dark Knight Strikes Again, was, shall we say, less well-received. After that, Miller wrote All-Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder, what was probably accidentally the greatest comic of the 21st century, and which brought us such memorable moments as this:"
- Just read The Dark Knight Returns and pretend the other stuff never existed. It's better that way.GM278

- It looks like it's made out of duct tape.EightyDeuce
- awful. how is zack snyder still allowed to make movies??????CygnusZero4
- every costume in every movie hes every made is shitCygnusZero4
- You've probably spent money on every movie he's ever made. That's why he's still allowed to make movies.Sep

- Ugh. Gene Hackman wore a wig. Kevin Spacey wore one too. It's no longer playing homage, it's become trite.kona
- Oh good, its the guy from social network, and looks exactly like he did in that movie hahaa. Lex Luther really needed a new, noname actor.CygnusZero4
- Zuck is Luthor. Thats what Im getting here. And he wears a bad wig.docpoz

When it's pointed out that Batman dons a special armor in order to combat his super-powered foe, Campbell remained unimpressed. "Well he’s gonna need it -- he’s fighting Superman! His face is exposed. Punch Ben Affleck in the face, you’re done. Walk away. What’s for lunch?

I dig the new Lex Luthor Image. Lex has changed throughout the years. Mad scientist, Evil Corporate Dick Face, Politician. This is a fitting interpretation for the times and I'm happy to see SV CEO's vilified any time.
I think the film makers are trying to do what Frank Miller did when he wrote Dark Knight Returns way back in the 80's and tell a version of that story today. I think that's incredibly fun. That's the element of DKR that I loved, and I'm interested in what that story looks like interesting. Also Batman and Superman will punch each other. Batman will get really violent as a result of innocent deaths, Superman will mange to be all superior and arrogant and yet still manage to have some kind of self doubt. Lex will manipulate the whole thing. That's the shit I've loved in comics from the past 30 years and I'll happily watch two and a half hours of it on screen.
- A self-entitled rich kid who becomes delusional because of virtually unlimited power and resources. Seems plausible.ETM
- Or a driven rich kid who never had many challenges and actively seeks them through other means, perhaps.ETM
- Likely a tech genious billionaire to fit the modern zeitgeist.ETM
- no. I get what you're saying...but this looks fucking retarded....and he's a total shit actor.marychain
- He's not that bad an actor but he's no Gene Hackman. Miss Tessmacher!MrT
- EightyDeuce0
- They should have asked Rocksteady, their Batman looks better than this.MrT
- It looks uncomfortable but lets wait and see what the contrast will dodocpoz
- Frank Miller drew Batman like that in the comic this movie draws from. He was older, very broad and stocky looking.ETM
- Yeah, it's a mixture of Miller and Jim Lee's stubby-eared Batman.face_melter
- why is he fatCygnusZero4
- @ ETM, I've been reading comics for well over 25 years. I'm very familiar with the source material.EightyDeuce
- But if that were the case superman should also be exagerated in size, but he's not. So again, to my point, this design is retarded.EightyDeuce
- Here is some contrast http://img.huffingto…
to http://www.geek.com/…EightyDeuce - lol wrong url http://www.geek.com/…EightyDeuce
- They can't as easily just exaggerate Superman too, when his look has already been established and this is basically a sequel to MoS.ETM
- Batman hasn't been established in THIS universe yet.ETM

- I fucking love Pete Holmes' batman skitsEightyDeuce
