Doesn't look too bad. Reserving judgment on Affleck's portrayal. His acting seems to have gotten better over the years. Argo was fantastic IMO.

Seems kind of dark and moody. Might be a nice counter-point to Marvel's collection.

Also my first reaction. Daredevil was definitely a bottom barrel movie.

Kind of like when The 'Hoff played Nick Fury...

Affleck sucks unless he is playing a very specific type of person. He is the same in every movie, so his style better fit the character or it fucking sucks.

It's all about the directors man. Daredevil was directed by Mark Steven Johnson who did Ghost Rider, When in Rome, and Killing Season. Those movies fucking sucked. Batman v Superman is directed by Zack Snyder. Big fucking difference there.

I'm sure this will come down to Kryptonite, but we all know the Sup would destroy Batman in a fight. I have always disliked Batman. Perhaps it's the fact he's a little rich boy who loves leather, lives alone with another man and uses toys...Americans love him, go figure

Didn't Batman beat Superman in the comics? I heard someone mention that on the radio.

I have an old Batman graphic novel by Frank Miller called "The Dark Knight Returns". I have heard there is some inspiration from this story in the movie (the film is not a complete retelling of Miller's novel).

The short of it is that this story takes place long after Batman has hung up his cloak after the world's superheroes (in the DC universe that is) decide to work in cooperation with the US government (not to the liking of the Batman at all). Events fall into place that cause a middle-aged Bruce Wayne to put on the costume again and Superman is called in by our government to rein in the rogue vigilante.

That last sentence is where I see this movie being inspired from and how you get two heroes to face off against each other.

(The trailer even has a two second flash of Superman in the Oval Office)

Good but not a great trailer. Hated batman voice in it. Like the Lex Luthor quote, costumes and effects look decent. I think it is good overall but the new Star Wars trailer is better!
