Not remotely surprised that the best part of the trailer was the one where there wasn't a single hint of Affleck as Batman. Still hate this casting.

    I'm actually a little more positive about Affleck after seeing the trailer.

    I didn't imagine the cleaner official version would be that much better. Holy smokes. I couldn't be more excited. I am so confident they nailed this.

    The only real speaking line he had was doctored as fuck and literally anyone could have been in the suit. While Bale was a little over the top as Batman by TDKR he wa fucking fantastic as Wayne and added so much depth to that character. Affleck has never been that transformative in a role.

    And as I've said before, I really enjoy plenty of his films, but he's always just Ben Affleck. I don't think he has the chops to take on a role as huge and well known as Batman.

    I would hope so given that it's an actual trailer. This was a teaser trailer. Of course we aren't going to be given much at this point (especially since it's almost still a year away).

    yea I kind of realized this after the fact, that as in that scene he seems to be in some sort of specially tailored Batman outfit that isn't his normal one, like something much more mechanized/armored, I would guess it's directly related to him dealing with Superman there as opposed to any other foe he might face. But just the fact that that's a specifically designed suit, maybe that's why his voice sound so modulated there. because again, I'm not sure I'd be so gung ho if that was what his Batman voice will sound like for the whole movie.


    and you guys talking all about Zach Snyder's visual prowess... just even to play devils advocate here, does that ultimately make him really all that worlds away from, say, the likes of Michael Bay? so that he's kind of at the mercy of his script for how good the individual film will actually be? I mean granted I've still not seen the whole thing yet (remember catching like 15 minutes once), but a movie like Sucker Punch, yea that had that very extreme Snyder visual style, and that has virtues to it, but I feel like most I've heard talk about that movie, it sucked big time.

    It could be that his voice is only like that when he's in that suit. But I think it's a good approach if they DO use it the whole movie. it works on Arrow and it's something different. Nolan's trilogy is the definitive Batman for me, but I'm ready for a new take on the character. Affleck is going to nail this.

    I was thinking about this earlier. Could be the case but there's nothing covering his mouth to make it sound the way it does. Had the mask been enclosed, sure, I would buy into that sound. There's nothing over his mouth. Why does he sound like a robot?

    well I mean even I wasn't looking at it that literally. I didn't think he necessarily had to have some kind of full mask over his face in that suit to accomplish the synthesized voice. Maybe he's got like a little mic underneath the edge of the metal of the mask around his chin or something.

    Trailer looks awful to me if I'm being honest.

    And I love Affleck.

    Good watch. They question it as well and literally say the exact same thing as I did.

    For those who didn't like it, which is totally cool, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, what didn't you like? Were you expecting more from the first teaser?

    Arrow and the Flash both have voice changing tech, I think they use a mic hidden somewhere

    I was also a little underwhelmed with the trailer. The Star Wars trailer exceeding expectations didn't help. The first half of the this teaser was probably what I didn't like. The voice overs leading to the reveal of the graffitied statue just didn't do anything for me. The Jeremy irons monologue and just the shot of affleck was a positive though. The few shots of footage after that were good, and We had already seen some form of the end of the teaser from the comic con footage. Overall, meh open inning half, cool middle, meh end with good dialogue. Throw in just a shot of gal gadot like walking or reacting to something in normal clothes at least. Will still be at this opening weekend, but just not a great first tease in my opinion. Really just didn't like the first half of it.

    I mean, people have to understand this is the teaser and not a full-blown trailer. All it's intended to do is set the tone for the movie and give us a small glimpse (hence the word "tease") into how the film will look visually.

    I'm also genuinely curious what people didn't like. Maybe expectations were too high? This movie isn't out for 11 months, there will be plenty more substantive footage in the months to come.

    Just cannot understand people hating a casting decision before they see the film. They did it with Keaton, they did it with Ledger, and countless other times. Just wait to see the movie before you form an opinion. I thought Affleck looked pretty good in the teaser looking pissed off but also a little concerned. Also, that quick shot of Batman coming out from under the rubble of the building gave me goosebumps big time.

    Easy - I've seen Ben Affleck act. Hence, I don't think he'll be a good Wayne/Bats. I hope I'm wrong.

    If Bale was in this I'd be way more excited. It's like having the Avengers movie and re-casting Robert Downey Jr. with Ryan Gosling.

    I also mentioned that I don't like the cramming everyone in one movie. It's less The Dark Knight and more Batman Forever.

    I originally wrote Ben off solely based on Daredevil. I actually thought the casting was a joke for BvS. After watching Gone Girl, I'm convinced he's a quality choice. Overall I believe he'll be a better Batman.

    Incorrect. It's supposed to entice your viewership. It should give you that OMG feeling. It didn't do that for me (and a lot of other people). I found it pretty meh.

    That's what the actual trailer is for. This is a teaser. There is a difference.

    Take a look at the Age of Ultron teaser from last October. Shares a lot of the same attributes as the BvS one: lots of voiceover exposition, not a ton of action, mostly just still shots of the main characters, sets the overall tone for the movie. If you watch the more recent trailers they've released, there is a ton more action.

    To each his own, for sure. Avengers doesn't really do anything for me on a deeper level and I found it sort of boring. It's definitely fun and entertaining, but there's no depth to it. I'm hoping Age of Ultron will change that.

    Back to the teaser, I really think Snyder is going to nail this. I have all the confidence in the world in him. Love the tone the teaser sets; the Batman/Superman conflict has always been ideological and not necessarily physical, which I think a lot of non-comic fans are getting caught up in. It's not really about the physical battle itself but how and why they will reach that point that interests me most.

    Surely no one has written this movie off based on one trailer, yeah?
