SPOILERS, AHOY! But it’s oh, so worth it!
First, in case you haven’t see it yet, here’s the trailer. Then, thoughts below!
1. So Bruce was in Metropolis that day, huh? We FINALLY know why Batman wants to take Superman on …
2. Holly Hunter wants to kill the dirty mutants?
3. Wonder Woman … all the world is waiting for you!
4. Alfred: Ever the voice of reason.
5. What the hell … Red Son Batman?!
6. Single best image of the entire trailer, hands down:
7. Perry White: Not exactly the voice of reason, but, you, know, GET BACK TO WORK!
8. I think Martha‘s trying to have it both ways in her little speech, don’t you?
9. So, the Comedian is really Thomas Wayne … ?
10. “20 years in Gotham. How many good guys are left … ” Hmmm. This is all 12 years after The Dark Knight Rises … or a soft reboot?
11. … all the powers you possess!
12. Jesse Eisenberg is still a lousy choice for Lex Luthor.
13. Just look at all this!

The trailer looks tantalizing. At the same time, I just can’t get my head around the idea of a valid contest between Batman and Superman. Yes, I know Batman has incredible intelligence, lots of great gadgets, and superior skills of detection. But, without Kryptonite, what true advantage does Batman truly have?

As to number 2, was casting Holly Hunter in that role coincidence or someone’s idea of irony?

Finally Zack seems to know the canon … very.. very well .. He’s not Joel Schumacher for damn sure .. visual stunning .. and a screenwriter in Terrio and Big Ben to keep him in check.. Jesse .. ummm will see ..i’d prefer the “breaking bad ” actor Bryan Cranston….too bad Yul Brynner is not with us .. best image… Superman ripping the doors off the batmoblie and Batman stands up .. over all … Zack has learned a lot from Man Of Steel .. and it will show.. Zack needs a brilliant screenwriter to articulate his vision ..

In answer to your question about “Dark Knight Rises” I think it’s a soft reboot. After all, there is a Robin costume and Nolan’s Batman never had a Robin.
