Batman vs Superman Trailer.
Written by Adam Roberts, 20/7/2015.
So to start with we see thereâs some sort of hearing holding Superman responsible for the decimation of Metropolis, and theyâre looking for someone to blame.
Seems like a whole lot of bureaucratic bull-s***t if you ask me. I donât really get it myself.
I mean the whole planet saw Zod’s message broadcast live, so they should be thanking him shouldnât they? … But I digress!
Now you remember the battle between Superman and Zod at the end of Man of Steel?
When Zod used his heat vision for the first time in the building, this is the moment as you can see in image one where a hidden scene of Bruce Wayne is looking up at the building and then running towards it as it collapses. Â It just so happens, the building belonged to Wayne Enterprises!
It turns out Bruce was in Metropolis at the time of the battle, possibly for a business meeting or something⌠how awesome is that?!
So it seems at this point as Bruce Wayne (Batman) amongst the rubble of his building only meters away from his company sign (as shown above) sees Superman fly out of the building as itâs falling to the ground, he assumes that heâs responsible for everything; but for now this is just conjecture so weâll have to wait and see on that one.
Now here we see Clark Kent (Superman) talking to Perry White, saying that this ââBat Vigilanteââ as he calls him, is a threat and a menace and should be stopped. So itâs quite clear that they both have a very poor opinion of each other already.
With many people succumbing to ââSuperhero worshipââ thinking of Superman as a God, it seems a great many others believe that he should just go back to where he came from⌠like he has a choice in the matter!
Lex Luther is played by Jesse Eisenberg (in the picture below), Luther seizes the opportunity to capitalise on the issues surrounding god-hood and hero worship, spinning them to his advantage. Â He is Lex Luther after all!
 The Red Capes Are Coming!
Â
Announced recently was the news that Jesse Eisenberg is going to be playing Lex Luther. Now a lot of fans have been saying that theyâre not happy. They shouldâve gone with somebody like Brian Cranston or Mark Strong or somebody a little older, keeping the vibe of the original character.
I personally feel that DC went the right way. Reason being that if you did the exact same thing every time, then fans wouldâve lose interest, it would become too predictable and the franchise wouldâve gone out of business decades ago.
YOU CANâT KEEP DOING THE SAME THING PEOPLE!
You have to try new thing, itâs the only way to keep the comics alive. Variety is essential when it comes to film making so give it a shot before you make up your mind okay. As Eisenberg said, Lex Luther wonât be some silly villainous character, and heâll have a lot more emotion to Lex so in my opinion, weâre going to see something very special.
So here we have a couple of ways that superman may be defeated. Above, you have Kryptonite. The most famous and effective substance to destroy superman. Who knew a piece of your home planet could kill you⌠oh yeah thatâs right⌠itâs radioactive! No mention of how out how they found out it can kill Superman yet. Canât wait to find out, he he!
Below you have the new and improved mechanical Bat Suit. Itâs kind of the Ironman suit of the DC world. I mean letâs face it, in a lot of ways âBruce Wayne (Batman) is pretty much like Tony Stark (Ironman)â Youâll have seen this suit in action already thanks to the new totally awesome trailer, so you know itâs going to kick Supermans ass!
We can confirm that Jeremy Irons will play Alfred Pennyworth. From what weâve seen from the new Batman vs Superman trailer, it seems that Alfred is a moreâŚtougher voice of reason, given his past experiences in the Military.
Heâs the only one able to keep the Dark Knight on the straight and narrow. A sort of ââconscienceââ sitting on his shoulder if you will. In comic book history this has been an essential role for the good butler.
This will be a very interesting version of Alfred if I do say so myself.
And now here we have something very exciting.
On the left we see holding his trident, Aquaman, King of Atlantis and ruler of the seven seas.
Aquaman to be played by Jason Momoa is rumoured to be having a part in the film, but do not quote me on this spoiler, but Iâve heard that in one scene of the Batman vs Supermen movie we see a container full of water and for a moment there is a hand pressed up against the glass. Is it Aquaman? Is it not? Weâre going to have to wait and see.
Now one of the things Iâve been looking forward to the most is the fact that weâll be seeing Gal Gadot playing Wonder Woman. Iâve been reading up on this for the last six months and I can tell you that she plays a bigger part than we thought⌠I wonât give too much away! But if youâve been a fan of Wonder Woman for a long time, then you wonât be disappointed with the character theyâve portrayed for her.
Now if The Flash is a character youâve been wondering about playing a part in Batman vs Superman, then all I can tell you is not a lot unfortunately. What I can tell you is that the flash will be played by a young talented actor named Ezra Miller who stared in The Perks of Being a Wallflower with Emma Watson who you may remember as Hermione Granger in Harry Potter.
The Flash solo movie will be released at the cinemas in the year of 2018 after 2017s Justice League part 1 movie. As for Batman vs Superman, all I can tell you is that I hear in one part of the film we see a mysterious blur coming to someoneâs rescue or somethingâŚ
Awesome stuff!
Batman vs Superman releases on March 15, 2016.
