I'd keep him out. Tease him without showing him.

 

[markjoedelonge]

So do you all think WB will show any of Superman in the trailer? And more than that, do you personally WANT them to?

Me, I say keep him out of it. Sure, a tease of a boot or cape would be nice, but keeping him out has helped drive up anticipation, not to mention it would echo how none of the Wonder Woman trailers gave a full reveal of Ares. I know showing him could potentially be that big trailer moment, akin to the Spider-Man reveal in the second Civil War trailer, but I hope Superman is kept for his big reveal in the film.

Plus, the last trailer WAS pretty Superman-centric just by virtue of discussing the impact Superman had on the world and the League, as we heard with Bruce's words about Superman being a beacon to the world.

I say keep him out of it. I do want a full reveal of Steppenwolf though. The more casual movie goers have no idea who the villain really is.

So btw, the Empire journos visited the JL set last august, so all the BTS photos were from the Principal Photography including all the funny Alfred lines and the "badass Alfred" one.

Also the Ezra Miller/Snyder meeting was from 2014, so the guy had the whole thing planned from back then. Pretty cool

Also saw some BTS footage of Bruce, Diana and Barry on a live stream on Twitter. Also had Charles Roven and Zack Snyder there.

No you must be mistaken. The vision Zack had for JL was clearly a dark, depressing tone. Whedon was brought in to lighten the mood. All the humour should be attributed to him.

I think the trailer stinger will show Superman hovering in the air from behind with a slight tease of the John Williams Superman theme. Like the first bar.

 

[idiot09]

Yeah clearly

That Mercedes car is so sick tho. It was custom built by Mercedes on Zack Snyder's request after he saw the car in a videogame(Gran Turismo).

I've always been a big fan when Alfred is portrayed as more than a loyal butler. The times he confronts Bruce about his crusade or flat out calls him out on some of his bs are hands down my favorite.

They had better not. Use those opening 2 notes from the MoS theme.

Woah really?? That's friggin' awesome. Btw where are you getting all these juicy tidbits??

 

[idiot09]

Wow that was intense. I would still like to see some tension between Bruce and Alfred after what happened...

From a live stream on twitter. Check out the "Henry Cavill news" or something like that page on Twitter. Or better yet check r/dc_cinematic. They have that live stream recorded. I'm on my phone so cant link it right now

I would definitely prefer the opening piano notes of the MOS theme, I could see them succumbing to the temptation of using JWs theme, especially since they're using it in the movie.

OK, New pic!!

Arkham Origins gets a lot of grief from fans but I'm a huge fan of the story. Alfred's line about Bruce not being some hardened vigilante but just a young man with a trust fund and too much anger is inarguably the best Batman description I've ever heard.

Basically all of this. They have to if they don't wanna pull another 'Doomsday'.

hope this is an actual still from the movie... The lighting and colors are so good

. Honestly I think Origins was a great game. I really don’t get the hate for it too much.

 

[markjoedelonge]

Cyborg looks badass!

Except in the movie we already know Elfman's not using it in the traditional sense. Plus, the Comic Con trailer had the MOS theme notes so it'd be odd to just use the John Williams theme in the marketing now.

And hey, a Cyborg promo pic I actually like.

Here's a much higher quality one:

Elfman's not using the Williams theme in a way where it'll be that recognizable. I don't know how people are still misrepresenting what he said in that article.
