Batman v Superman: A trailer packed with childish, fun stuff

3 Dec 2015

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is out next March

A trailer for the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice blockbuster has been released and it looks, well, as fun as it is childish.

When egos collide, eh? The new Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer gets right down to it, with a jealous Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) meeting a pretty suave Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) at a party.

A standard cockfight is teed up instantaneously before, to add to what looks like one of those films that you just tune out for and enjoy, the duo team up against a bigger foe. This reeks of spoiler alerts, and it’s so haphazard. It still, though, seems dreadful and fun. My kind of film.

There’s Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Doomsday and even Jeremy Irons.

With Batman v Superman not out until next March, that leaves plenty of time for precious fans to vent their ire about a fictional film. To be honest, it’s a trailer that has it all and the response on Twitter has been, understandably, confused.
