This past weekend DC gave us the first look at their upcoming movie, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Although Batman gets top billing, the film is a sequel to the 2013 Superman film, Man of Steel.
The sequel features a good look at Batman's new suit, and also a cool armored version of it. The armored suit is very similar to the one Batman wears in Dark Knight Returns, a comics story that also features a fight between Batman and Superman.
Overall the movie seem as if it will be very similar to Dark Knight Returns. An aging Batman fighting a disillusioned Superman. One other similarity is the shot of Batman atop a building with a gun, something he almost never does, due to his aversion to guns.
One of the most powerful shots in the trailer shows a statue of Superman, defaced with the spraypainted words "False God". This image show the people's opinions of Superman as an overpowered outsider, which may be one of the reasons that him and Batman fight.
I am extremely excited for this movie, and I can't wait to see the fights between Batman and Superman.
The movie is set for a 2016 release date, and you can view the trailer at the official site.
