At least she has the lasso. That shit could be cool if used correctly. The idea of an unbreakable rope in the hands of someone with super strength and flight is an untapped idea of action scenes.
Frank Miller's Batman, is comparatively chunkier in the book they are loosely basing this off of, look up Frank Miller, "The Dark Knight," you'll get the jist.
I am a little offended that you told me to read the Dark Knight Returns. /s
I know the look they are going for, its mostly the photo seems to suffer from photoshop for evil. Diana also is in a shitty runway model pose, but I get they are pressed for space.
Was not my intention to offend suh.
I am proud about my comic book cred. Plus everyone should read Dark Knight Returns, even if it is sort of dated today.
Alan Moore and Frank Miller were the guys that kicked off the entire 90's anti-hero era, in a good way (meaning a serious take at superheroes and villains).
And then, like the 90's anti-hero era, they went bat-shit insane and produced nothing but nonsensical Xtreme garbage.

It is when Punisher reached the height of his popularity, which should tell everyone something. Marvel’s shittiest character was one of their best selling comics.
Thank got that era is over and comics are trying to do new stuff. Everyone has figured out that if you have a large cast of heroes, even in single hero comics like Spiderman, you can tell a lot more stories.
But I am all for this movie because it gets us closer to Batgirl and other spin off characters.

It's also the era when heroes and villains got to be more fleshed out than just "heroes and villains", which made stories naturally grittier than the old black-and-white caricatures. But like most corporate driven phases, the wrong lesson was learned and marketers thought it was the guns and blood that people liked.
And I'm pretty sure this is the movie that's going to tank the DC movie experiment all over again.
Man, Batman´s fight scenes look incredible! But even though I can´t wait, I think this is the last trailer I will watch until it comes out. Really want to be surprised.
By the way, since we don´t have a comic con thread, they also announced the name of the new Green Lantern movie: Green Lanter Corps. Rumours say that it will have more than one protagonist.

Yeah, for some weeks now, there was a rumor that Chris Pine is Hal Jordan, and that the movie will have John Stewart in it too. They're trying to go for a Green Lantern team movie instead of making it a solo movie.
Why are they so mean to superman?! Interesting to see superman's mom doesn't follow uncle ben's with great power comes great responsibility philosophy. She's all, you don't owe this planet anything.....besides the fact he'd be dead if his krypton parents didn't send him to this planet where he could grow up.

Well they had to force Batman and Superman to fight somehow. And they're obviously trying to force this to be Dark Knight Returns where everyone isn't old and the Communism isn't the big threat.

I see it differently because I don't think she said it to be mean. Martha cares about the world, and she knows that Kent can make it a better place. But she cares about HIM even more, as any mother would. She still remembers holding that scared little boy in her arms when his powers began to manifest in Man of Steel. In fact, her saying what she said is more understandable given that current situation. She's basically saying, "Help them or don't. It's your choice, because you don't owe those haters anything." It's a response to people hating Superman. And she's saying it's your choice: Help them, or screw them and don't help.
