BvS Write The SVB Teaser Trailer!!

[Excel]

Here's my go...

Darkness. Low horns quietly sound. ZOD Voiceovers.

"You are not alone. You are not alone".

The words fizzle onto a staticy TV SCREEN which are ZOOMED in on, slowing panning away from.

"Your world has sheltered one of my citizens"

Shot of Kal-El.

"He will look like you. He will act like you".

Shot of Kal-el at the Daily Planet, shot of him in Smallville

"But he is NOT one of you".

Back to the screen, which continues to say "You are not Alone. You are not alone".

Drums begin to beat as we pull back back far enough out th eback of the BAT HELMET - the two pointy ears visible at the bottom of the screen, head glued the monitor before.

The begins become louder and louder as the Batman slowly rises, his enormous frame encompassing the entire screen.

IN 2015

Shot of Superman

Shot Lois Lane

Shot of Lex Luthor

FOR

On a rooftop at night, massive Gotham City visible in the background. The Batman rises up, cape billowing in the wind, stands as an icon against the city. Pan over as he leaps off, cape spreading as he descends downwards

SUPERMAN vs. BATMAN

Superman rockets past the screen in a blur, dodging sky scrappers. A second later, the building EXPLODES - THE BATWING speeding through the smokey remains in pursuit

SUMMER 2015

 

[MrMaooz]

I can tell you that there is a high chance it will tease like crazy!

 

[roach]

Fade In:

We see the events of Man of Steel. Superman fighting Kryptonians. Superman fighting Zod. We see the crater left in down town Metropolis.

Camera pulls away and we realize the events were on a monitor. A massive computer with three computer screens. One monitor replays the events from MOS, another has a display of Superman on the screen. The final screen has the Daily Planet on it.

A shadowy figure pushes away from the computer. Bats fly over head. The figure steps towards a table and we see Bruce Wayne in costume but not with the cape and cowl on.
On the table rest the cape and cowl. He puts them on and Batman stands before us.

He leaps into a supercharged Batmobile and races out of the Batcave.

Fade to black.


Thats how I would do it

 

[WinterAssassinR]

Excel, that got me really hyped! The only thing i'd change though would be the Batwing crashing through a skyscraper. Batman isn't the type to do those sorts of things.

 

[Tra-El]

Teaser should be short and sweet; a total of 40 seconds:

--Static overwhelms the screen.--
"YOU ARE NOT ALONE"
Static grows louder
"..not alone.."
"YOU ARE NOT ALONE"
Static grows intense with multiple female/male news-reporters (only their voices; in the background) interchanging; quick voice-overs reporting the scene of destruction; downtown Metropolis
"Nosteigh, nostat.." (Japan)
--STATIC--
"..not alone."
--A looping of film is seen/heard being rewound--
"YOU ARE NOT ALONE"
--Static on screen getting closer, and closer, and closer and closer--
--Static all the way zoomed in with the words "YOU ARE NOT ALONE"--
as we see a dark silhouette, not entirely made out through the static, but what appears to be a reflection; Bat-ears ricocheting/reflecting off of a surveillance monitor--
SCREEN GOES BLACK FOR 3 seconds
--SILENCE--
Fade in to the Superman/Batman logo
--2015--

 

[Gamingboy]

From "Write-A-Scene" Thread:

Okay, after hearing about the fact we have a Batman now (Affleck), I've been inspired to write a possible teaser trailer, with heavy nods to Jeph Loeb (hey, he helped inspire the Dark Knight trilogy and some of the Kansas scenes of Man of Steel, so why not this film?) and a bit to Dini/Timm:


We begin with LIGHTNESS, BRILLIANT WHITE. But then we hear a voice, a voice of THE MAN OF STEEL, SUPERMAN. We hear strains of Zimmer's MOS score.

SUPERMAN (v.o.)
The dream always begins the same...

RAPID CUT of stock footage of Jor-El and Lara, Krypton, the launch of Kal-El's ship, it going by the moon, the destruction of Krypton etc. from MOS, as Superman continues to voice-over it

SUPERMAN (v.o)
...My parents, sending me into space as their world died around them. Hope surviving in me...

Abrupt cut to utter blackness, the music stops, and as Zimmer's (presumably) new theme for BATMAN begins (a bit more heroic sounding than the Dark Knight themes, but still noticably dark and gritty), we hear the voice of THE BATMAN.

BATMAN (v.o)
The nightmare always begins the same....

Abrupt cut to footage of Batman's origin- perhaps it's specifically shot for the teaser, perhaps it is from a brief one-or-two minute "if you are one of the four people who don't know Batman's origin, here's the deal" sequence from the film- either way, we see some of those images: of a family leaving a theater, of a mugger, of a gunshot and pearls falling to the ground and a child wailing and then a Bat screeching, and through it all, Batman continues his voiceover:

BATMAN (v.o)
...My parents, dead at the hands of a gunman from the shadows. My childhood dying, a WAR beginning...

Now we cut to the light and the dark next to each other, as images and footage of the two heroes- both from the film, MOS and some select comics, play briefly as now the music weaves together and the two heroes speak alongside each other

SUPERMAN (v.o.) / BATMAN (v.o)
I was born with powers beyond those of other men... / I have honed my mind and body to be better than other men...

Slowly, the LOGOs of the two heroes begin to emerge, as the dual speech continues...

SUPERMAN (v.o) / BATMAN (v.o)
I need to use them to be a champion, an inspiration to the people of Earth... / I have become a legend, a myth, a bogeyman to the criminals of Gotham...

The LOGOS are now fully on the screen, separated by the line between light and darkness.

SUPERMAN (v.o) / BATMAN (v.o)
I will stand for truth, justice.../I am vengeance, I am the night...

The LOGOS COLLIDE, light and darkness merge and fracture alongside each other, the logo of the film now stands there, as the two heroes finish their speeches and the music crescendos:

SUPERMAN (v.o) / BATMAN (v.o)
I'm Superman! / I am Batman!

CUT TO the release date of July 17, 2015, and then, before the standard showing of credits that they show at the end of trailers, we get a quick 2 second look at the two heroes looking at each other, meeting face to face for the first time.... and then credits... and then... BLACK.

 

[kguillou]

So, I know this isn't a teaser trailer but I figured what the heck, I thought i'd try my hand at an actual 2min trailer. Let me know what you guys think!

BLACK SCREEN

LEX LUTHOR (VO): GOOD MORNING, METROLPOLIS!

The WARNER BROS, SYNCOPY and DC ENTERTAINMENT logos crop up.

We pan in with an overview shot of Metropolis, 6 months after the events of Mos, with the city undergoing notable construction.

Shot of LEX LETHOR at a press conference addressing a massive crowd.

LEX: Today....is a new day.

Shot of Lois and Clark amongst the large crowd taking notes. Both of them looking dubious.

LEX: The last 6 months have been an enduring time for our great city. We faced many challenges. We faced our darkest hour.

Shot of people in the streets running away from something terrifying.

LEX: I am Lex Luthor and I'm here to tell you that the dawn is not coming....it is already here.

Several quick cuts of “mini metallo”bots throughout the city rebuilding and reconstructing.

LEX: Together, we will rebuild Metropolis. We will rise like the proverbial Phoenix from the ashes.

Quick shot of Superman picking himself up from what appeared to have been a powerful blow.

LEX: We will be BIGGER...

Shot of Superman flying upwards towards something large.

LEX: BETTER..

Shot of Superman punching something.

LEX: And more resilient than ever before.

Shot of Superman in the midst of a large explosion seemingly unscathed.

LEX: We will become...THE WORLD'S FINEST.

(Crowd cheering)

Back to Lois and Clark in the crowd. Lois retorts:

Lois: Wow. Is this guy for real?

Clark smirks.

SUMMER 2015...

Shot of the Daily Planet.

Shot of Perry White walking with Lois and Clark to his office.

White: Kent. Lane. I want to introduce you two to the Planet's newest benefactor.

Lois (glibly): Benefactor? You mean owner, don't you?

White: Lois, PLEASE do not tick this guy off. He's rich, really rich and kind of scary.

They enter Perry's office and see a tall, built, dark haired man staring out of Perry's office window with his hands in pockets.

White: I want you two to meet...

Shot of Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne turning around and smiling ever so slightly.

Shot of him shaking Clark's hand.

BRUCE: Wayne.

Shot of him kissing Lois' hand.

BRUCE: Bruce Wayne.

Clark looks uncomfortable.

...LEGENDS...

Shot of Clark and Bruce walking with each other.

BRUCE: So, Clark, what can you tell me about Lex Luthor?

Shot Lex looking out of his window looking over Metropolis mischievously.

CLARK: Well, he's rich, powerful, mysterious, not many people know about his personal life.

Shot of Lex in some sort of factory building a massive METALLO robot.

CLARK: Come to think of it, he's sort of like you, Mr. Wayne.

BRUCE (smirking): I could say the same about you, farm boy.

CLARK: Excuse me?

….WILL...

Shot of Luthor ranting to somebody (or possibly himself).

LUTHOR: They think he's a hero! This ALIEN from outer space thinks he can come to MY city and run things?!

Quick shots of Superman saving people and flying through the sky.

Shot of Luthor talking to the giant Metallo robot.

LUTHOR: You know what you need to do.

Metallo's eyes glow green.


….COLLIDE.

Several quick action shots:
Explosions.
Superman fighting Metallo.
Perry White yelling at somebody.
Bruce trying to seduce Lois.
Clark talking to Martha.

MARTHA: You still don't believe in yourself, do you,?

Jenny Olsen running away from something in terror.

Clark and Lois talking.

CLARK: I don't know, something about this Wayne guy isn't right to me.

LOIS: Why? Cause he's tall dark and handsome?

CLARK (smiling): I'm.....tall.

Shot of Bruce Wayne confronting Lex Luthor.

BRUCE: I don;t know what your game is, but I'm on to you, Lex.

LEX: Right back actha, rich boy.

Several more quick action shots until we see the text:

MAN OF STEEL

WORLD'S FINEST.

Shot of Superman in Lex's office like he just crashed through it. He's floating above Lex with his eyes blazing red.

Superman: Lex, it's about time you and I had a chat.

Just then a voice offscreen growls at Superman.

“STEP AWAY FROM HIM. NOW!”

Superman turns to his side and sees BATMAN in all his badass glory approaching him.

BATMAN: I said STEP AWAY FROM HIM.

SUPERMAN: Or else...what?

Then Batman takes out two batarangs and readies his battle stance.

Superman clenches his fist.

Fade to black.

JULY 2015

A Zack Snyder film

What do you guys think?

 

[MrMaooz]

Really cool.

 

[DCW]

For the teaser I'd just like something fairly simple: Lex Luthor giving a campaign speech about how superman is a threat to the people of metropolis and the world intercut with a few shots from the film. Then the title card followed by a shot of superman and lex talking/arguing then a figure with a black cape stepping in front of the camera with his back to us (similar to the man of steel trailer when supermans boot steps into frame and his cape drapes over the frame). Cut to black.

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

This full trailer has me convinced that if done right, this movie can own! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nviH0aTqo7M

 

[STARMAN]

Fade In:

Batman beats the crap out of Superman and rides off with Lois Lane in his Batmobile.

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

Nah he just rides Lois Lane.

 

[Jochimus]

Vocal over color-faded flashbacks from MOS:

"This world's had enough problems...and this city has always been on the ledge. I've fought hard to keep it from falling in. Then you showed up. Your people showed up. And another city was laid waste. Now they're ALL on the ledge. You know what they say about the road to Hell, right? Paved with good intentions. I don't care how good your intentions are...I will do whatever is necessary to keep my city from falling into that Hell; I will fight whoever I have to...including you. GET OUT OF GOTHAM."

Intercut over ominous music ("Molossus" as a stock track if necessary):
* Bruce and Lois dancing at a charity function - Clark eyeing them;
* An armored boot being strapped on;
* A military escort toward an opening pair of Wayne Aerospace hangar doors, revealing the remnants of the scout ship/Fortress;
* A utility belt being clicked into position;
* Swanwick looking up and away from a computer monitor with a flashing red prompt saying "Security Alert: Database";
* A compartment on the utility belt being closed;
* A masked shooter wearing armor over a crimson bodysuit crouched in the open rear door of an armored car with a heavily-modified rifle, firing it; a POV through the scope of a clearly-unamused Superman racing up in pursuit, past cars being sent askew by the ricochets;
* An armored, scalloped glove being slid on;
* Lois, Perry and Jenny looking up from a rooftop; at the fiery remains of a Wayne satellite streaking across the overcast sky;
* An angry pair of eyes, over which a mask is slid into place;
* Superman being tackled left and right by figures in military exo-suits which vaguely, crudely resemble the Black Zero crew's armor;
* A cape being locked into position over the Bat-symbol;
* And of course, the grand finale of intercutting: Superman thundering through the stormy Gotham sky, eyes literally ablaze as he's peppered with ordnance; Lois running screaming through the street; a distinctly Bat-shaped craft charging head-on at Superman in that same tempestuous sky, all its weapons firing at him; back at the party, a shot from behind of a tuxedoed man with a bald head raising a flask in toast to the partygoers on the ballroom floor below; and BOOM! A colossal mid-air explosion that outshines even the lingering lightning...a single caped figure limp and consumed in flames plummeting to the earth below...

Cut to black. The S-shield fades in, then behind it the firelit rim of the Bat symbol.

Release date fades in and out.

 

[kguillou]

You know what, after writing my own trailer and reading the ones you guys are writing, I cannot lie, I think I've become STOKED for this movie! This trailer could easily be the one that wins comic con next year and one of the coolest trailers of all time!

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Almost 2 years of wait before the release of the teaser.
Better be a good teaser.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

I'm honestly kinda shocked they haven't uploaded it to the official website

 

[Rodrigo90]

To give a taster of mine and KillerWolf's BvS script

(V.O) PERRY WHITE: The world as we knew it, has changed.
* Superman stands before a grand court.
GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL: How do you plead to the charges brought against you?
* Superman hovers above a firey wreckage in the middle of the ocean.
SUPERMAN: Not guilty.
(V.O) ALFRED PENNYWORTH: Things are never going to be the same way again.
* Riots in the streets. Hundreds of citizens rant and jeer against armed police forces. Between the police and the citizens, a shadowy figure drops down from the sky. Hunched, it rises - Batman.
* Standing on a platform before thousands of people - Lex Luthor.
LEX LUTHOR: Ladies and gentleman, this is the future you've all been waiting for. I hope you're ready.
* Flashes of Superman flying through the air at high speed. Images of Batman brutally fighting a large gang of thugs. A Nuclear warehead comes zooming in towards Superman. The Batmobile zooming down the street, getting fired at by the police. Superman fighting against heavily armed guys in power suits. An explosion at the Wayne Enterprises building. Lois falling from a tall building. Superman catches her.
*Batman and Superman stand opposite eachother on a rooftop.
SUPERMAN: It doesn't have to be this way.
BATMAN: The night is coming for you. Be prepared for it.
*Hundreds of Bat-Drones fly towards Superman in the sky.
End of teaser

 

[KillerWolf]

Good job!

 

[Tra-El]

I would love a scene where Superman lands in the Gotham streets for the first time. Dark, rainy. Steam forming in the humid; Gotham air.

I always loved when Batman messed with thugs on the ground and jumping from wall to wall; rooftop to rooftop above without being seen and the scary suspense he brings upon local gangs.

I would like to see Batman toying with Superman in this instance with Superman using his super-hearing trying to locate where Batman actually is. Superman definitely hears where Bruce is jumping on and from to and moves his eyes around and around trying to locate him until the noise stops dead silent and all Superman could hear now is a steady heartbeat. Clark pauses, turns his head to the side to look behind him and there's Batman's shadowy figure standing behind him.

Imaginging this in my head is awesome.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Good job!

Thank you, my friend!
Just need to get the rest of it filled in now
