I’ve been skeptical about this movie; I wasn’t a huge fan of Man of Steel (great beginning, fell apart in the middle act). Also not crazy about Ben Affleck as Batman or the eventual inclusion of the Justice League (with Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman).

But I’ve got to admit, that trailer is making me rethink everything...looks pretty cool! What I liked:

-Bruce Wayne running headfirst into debris to save people: Awesome!

-Superman actually SAVING PEOPLE! Was totally missing from Man of Steel: Awesome!

-Didn’t like casting of Jesse Eisenberg, but he actually makes for a really creepy Lex Luthor, at least in the trailer.

-References to the Joker somehow being involved in everything.

-Batman and Superman FIGHTING...looks awesome!

-Jeremy Irons as Alfred, trying to convince Wayne that Superman isn’t the villain.

Still not sure about Gal Gadot...doesn’t look the part of Wonder Woman at all.

I will remain cautiously optimistic...Man of Steel trailers looked awesome, too, and what a letdown that movie was! Never underestimate Hollywood’s ability to mess something up.

This makes no sense. Why would two do gooders even fight? And how does a mortal fight a powerful alien such as superman? Oh well, guess I’m not into the books enough to know this stuff.

Realistically, how does Batman survive 10 seconds in a fight with Superman? Superman can bench press the Earth for five days straight before a single drop of sweat comes down his face. That’s canon!

I hate that guy who plays Luthor - the guy that played Zuckerberg in the Facebook movie - the trailer looks LAME
