I know some people are into this Batman vs Superman bullshit from the comics, my stepdad being one of them, and I like a lot of Batman comics, but as soon as Superman shows up in a Batman comic I just roll my eyes. Why do they exist in the same world together?? Its so absurd, and the idea that Batman could ever compete with what is basically a god is one of the dumbest concepts that ever came out of comics.
No one ever asked anyone to make a movie about this. My gf asked me the other day, "Why are they fighting, arent they both good guys?" I just shook my head and just said I have no idea. Its so dumb.
- 6 bucks and my left nut says Chinfleck will have kryptonite gauntlets.DRIFTMONKEY
- "Why are they fighting, arent they both good guys?" >> how is this a problem ? that's the point of the story.spl33nidoru
- You're wrong, this is the movie the public wants. The question has been bothering comic fanboys since second grade, they need to know the answer.reanimate
- No.CygnusZero4
- In the comic, Superman does what he's told by the president. Batman does what he feels is right. Those opinions conflict, battle ensues.ETM
- Batman's intellect overcomes superman's god-like strength. Something completely lost in the Nolan movies.digitdaily
- People have been clamouring for a Dark Knight Returns dust up film since the moment the book was released.face_melter
- Batman has Plan B backups for all the major DC characters in case they go bad. The one for Superman was provided by himself. That's how he competes - prep time.face_melter
- Pretty sure I read this fight back in 1992monospaced

it's a movie about an alien, who looks like a man, that can fly, and a guy who dresses up in a bat costume. how fucking realistic do you need this movie to be?
will it be entertaining? yes
will it abide by the known laws of physics? um, no.- But I'm hearing/reading that it's not entertaining in many parts of the film.ETM
- I'm hearing the opposite actuallykona
- Lets hope your sources are right.ETM
- p.s. critics give it 38%. the audience gives it 84%. i have literally never listened to what some pretentious prick says about a moviekona
- Well sure, but in these early stages most of the audience opinions are based on not even seeing the movie yet.ETM

That new 3 minute trailer makes the movie look like shit. Wonder Woman pops in> "Is she with you?" -- "I thought she was with you?" and my dad in the audience is slapping his knee and thinking "Oh NOW it's ON!!"
Utter tripe. 39% on Rotten Tomatoes.
The Batman vs Superman fight is probably the only interesting crossover that DC ever did! Done well it could have been its own movie by itself. Adding too many villains and crossovers is what made Spider-Man 3 a POS movie, and here they're repeating the same mistakes.
If you don't get why Supe v Batman is interesting, you probably like Superman better than Batman. If you like Superman better than Batman, don't waste my time. Leave your girl friend, go back in your mom's basement with some comics, and get your life fucking straightened out.
- i'm trying to follow the train of thought but it's like you copied and pasted from 3 different places. critics give it 38%. the audience gives it 84%kona
- your 2nd paragraph i believe starts with a positive (unless you're referring to miller's version, not the movie) then moves to a negativekona
- then the last paragraph is back to a positive statement? did you like it, or did you not?kona
- Frank Miller Good. This Movie Bad. Concept Good.sarahfailin

Want to go see something this weekend. Ill pass on this nonsense. Trying to decide between deadpool and cloverfield. Which one is better? Keep in mind, there will be a lady with me. Heh
- i liked Deadpool. Lady approved. Can't say anything about Cloverfield but I'll probably watch that too.shellie
- Cloverfiled is aiiiight ...Ramanisky2
- Deadpool deserves everyone's money - how to do a worthwhile comic film. Marvel's output is beige and tedious in comparison.face_melter
- Apart from Guardians of the Galaxy, which is 400 flavours of awesome.face_melter
- Aw, that's sweet - mom's treating you to a night at the flicks?detritus
- Your mom. Tell her to clean up real good. And show those luscious titties or me.CygnusZero4
- So what was better, deadpool or cloverfield?CygnusZero4
- They are different but both are good. I would go see them both but start with Deadpool, it's a fun movie.Maaku
- CALLES0
- yes pleasekona
- thank god batman doesn't kill people,
only break their spines, neck and teethgeorgesIII - lolkona
- In the same way Dare Devil doesn't kill. Just maim and cripple. :)ETM

No one is surprised. Hack Snyder. End of story.
- Whos paying this clown to make movies??? Man of Steel, Watchmen, 300, all crap.CygnusZero4
- dawn of the dead was good ;)Ramanisky2
- *Thinking people who go to those movies care about reviewsreanimate
- I liked Dawn of the Dead, hence why I didnt list it, but that was a long time ago, and he's done a lot of garbage since.CygnusZero4
- Man of Steel SUCKED. How in the world did that get a sequel?CygnusZero4
- Lmao Chris Nolans name is attached to this. Paycheck must have been pretty sweet.CygnusZero4
- it's got ben affleck in it. therefore shit.hans_glib
- I didn't mind Watchmen. Thought it was really good in fact, but I was stoned.Ianbolton
- actually 300 was a decent movie. the others: trash, right enoughhans_glib
- Watchmen tries really hard. Story is butchered but the production design is amazing, with a great attention to detail.face_melter
- I liked 300 in Imax. I would like to see a fan edit of Watchman, cut to 80-90 minutes.DRIFTMONKEY
- I liked Watchmen. I read the comic before I saw the film and thought the film did a decent enough job with it.docpoz
- 41% out of 72 reviews, wow that's shit. #benafleckpinkfloyd
- You know this guy will be there: http://i.imgur.com/7…nb
- Affleck was the only good part of the movie according to the reviews I readreanimate
- I believe it. He/Batman were the only interesting parts of the trailers too.ETM

- I was expecting a different take from Eisenberg on Lex.jtb26
- I guess I'm the wrong audience for this. I liked the Nolan Batman movies OK, this looks really over the top.yuekit
- Lex as a snivelling tech dweeb, is awful.Al_dizzle
- Lex son. still mehCALLES
- Think I'll pass on this.Continuity
- I was actually getting really into that... and then.. who's the chick?
Seriously - couldn't they have introduced her in Pt II?detritus - Lex = Adrian Veidt / Ozymandias
Superman = Dr Manhattan
Batman = Rorschach
Wonderwoman = Silk Spectre IIBluejam - from the trailer...
Lex creates monster to kill superman
Batman uncovers plot
it's a Watchmen reboot!Bluejam - Man, the graphics look awesome. I can't wait to play it on PS4!randommail
- I do believe that's Doomsday. I'm giddy as a schoolgirl.kona
- Lex is the only part that I'm not quite feeling. A little too sniveling dewsh for me.kona
- better than i was expectingjaylarson
- Now that we've seen the entire movie...MondoMorphic
- Lex looked silly, special effects got my attention, then I saw DOOMSDAY and WONDERWOMAN IS HOTTTpinkfloyd
- is that.... a bat-rifle? wtf, there really is nothing sacred. and...ArchitectofFate
- are they changing the name to batman vs superman ft wonder woman, or will she just be left out?ArchitectofFate
- It's batman vs superman - dawn of justice. WW is lumped into the 'dawn of justice' part as it's the dawn of the justice league. heLLLOOOOO MCFLYkona
- the 'heLLOOO MCFLY' just made me laugh my ass off for no good reason :)exador1
- Looks good but I feel like I just watched the whole movie with that trailermrpt
- I was expecting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to join.Longcopylover
- Everything looked great until that chick playing Lex showed up.futurefood
- So we know the entire plot now and I don't expect the character development to carry this movie =) I guess It's going to make a great promo for the game!zarkonite
- goofy fundocpoz
- Ugh lex sounds so annoying.pango
- why does it link to jimmy kimmel? haha.docpoz
- MEHelahon

- I fucking love Pete Holmes' batman skitsEightyDeuce
- ...probably better than the film...docpoz

- 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 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

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?
