Batman and Robin


Fans should prepare to encounter the other Justice Leaguers only in cameos, as certain characters discover evidence of fellow “metahumans” who could either become powerful allies – or maybe foes. Batman isn’t sure, and his default setting is to perceive everyone stronger than him as an enemy. Snyder and co-writer Chris Terrio (who won an Oscar for Argo) cleverly jiu-jitsu a common complaint about Man of Steel to explain why Batman hates Superman so much: he blames him for the death and the destruction the hero unleashed on Metropolis in his battle with General Zod.

“The idea that there are more, that’s hopeful and also terrifying to him,” says Affleck. “Because then they could make humans even more powerless – or they could serve on our side.” This is a Batman who has been at it for nearly two decades, and he’s both tired and a little hopeless.

The trailer features a Robin uniform, covered with Joker graffiti, which implies the Boy Wonder has been killed in a previous story. He’s starting to wonder if he ever really saved anyone – or just made things worse. “He’s projecting his own sense of failure, his own sense of disillusionment, his own cynicism onto Superman,” Affleck says.

But the Robin suit is another example of groundwork BvS is laying for other movies. “We’ll be exploring that,” says Johns, who has consulted on the full slate. “No one says specifically the name of which Robin that is.”

Oh come on... :csad:

Wait!! Are they implying what I think they are implying..? Oh my.. :woo:
 
We all knew that though going back to the initial slate announcement. Some of us however "knew" Ambroyer was full of bovine excrement as well as there being no "necessary" inclusion of GL in either part of JL, especially given the lack of GLs in the concept art, no matter how one personally would have wanted to spin Johns' words in the CW special.
Obviously Amboyer was full of ****. He sucks
 
That article puts WBs nervousness in perspective. Clearly alot of planning is involved and hoping BvS success helps make their plans come to fruition.
 
I just want a reference to Trigon...........

Weren't we expecting Ezra as a cameo going back... Years though? I mean the whole "post apocalyptic " outfit scoop was how long ago?
 
Some of us guessed that the Flash may go back in time to warn the heroes

Ah I found that part. That's what I was thinking too. Will be interesting to see. :)
 
Immediately thought of this panel when reading about the Knightmare vision scene.

I remember some had some "fun" when others brought up "visions/dreams" in the film oh so long ago. Yet here we are now with confirmation of BOTH titular heroes having "visions".
 
I'm still kinda confused. Is flash coming back and telling them about what he saw(we see the vision) or is flash appearing in the vision itself?
