That skit was awesome.

 

[Cabbagehead]

*explain everything to me*

*omg exposition sucks, trust your audience for once*

Some people...even if they don't give an explanation in the movie. You're watching God and a man dressed as a bat fighting each other, suspension of disbelief shouldn't be that hard and you could probably find a reason why he didn't use his superhearing. It was a very brief moment he did not see him, probably did not expect it to happen and almost immediatly rushes through the smoke etc etc.

Truth

 

[JC Sera]

That skit was the first thing I've found appealing about this movie
"how could I be so stupid..."

 

[raphier]

He has super hearing too. He can't hear Batman moving to a different side/angle?

The heavy rain probably helps to cover the sound. The droplets are loud.

 

[crazyrabbits]

Pretty impressed with how integrated the marketing is with Kimmel's show. I'm guessing that the dialogue we keep hearing from Wayne/Kent (in between bouts of being interrupted) is actually in the film, but this was just a joke take they did. Also impressed that they got Will Arnett in.

If you mean joke take as in, during filming, no. The whole venue is different internally. They just went to that much effort. See what being friends with the star can do? Brilliant stuff.

 

[Monocle]

The fight takes place in Gotham so...

That explains a lot, I guess.

 

[MMarston]

I can't do this anymore. Please no more MoS destruction discussion. Kill me now.

I don't like MoS for my own reasons, but I'd be lying if I didn't think that the whole destruction discussion has been driven into the Earth's core already.

 

[brickarts295]

Okay I fucking lost it with the Lex joined in XD

 

[Shuggananas]

Why is it raining so much though

 

[strafer]

Rain is awesome. I hope the rain wins an oscar.

 

[Einchy]

A good Gotham is a Gotham that has nonstop rain and has no idea what a sun is.

 

[Volimar]

Fuck them, LEGO Batman was the shit.

Kimmel and Affleck are boys? Figures, not always easy to pull stuff like this. Totally worth it.

They used to date.

 

[strafer]

Cavill was near breaking when he was dabbling with the phone

 

[Hystzen]

Superman is just letting Batman vent like letting the a child have a tantrum. He is barely putting effort into stopping Bruce lol

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

I still would have liked D'Onofrio.

It's a shame we didn't see it until DareDevil. He would've been perfect for early post-Crisis Lex.

 

[pappe]

Rain is awesome. I hope the rain wins an oscar.

It should have atleast won one oscar till now. No idea why it keeps getting snubbed.

 

[Schweinehund]

40 second clip feels like 15. I was so drawn into it then it just cuts off .

The 25th can't come fast enough.

Reminds me a bit of Justice League War.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Why is it raining so much though

Batman, in his ever famous planning, waited for the most dramatic rainstorm in years to engage Superman

 

[aussiedude08]

That was actually a good skit. and then the Matt Damon cameo at the end.

I care about Lego Batman.

 

[yuraya]

I can't do this anymore. Please no more MoS destruction discussion. Kill me now.

But Superman let all those people die in the end of Man of Steel. All that destruction.

He is the worst hero ever.

Spoiler

Its pretty obvious the destruction was caused by Zod and the world engine but people refuse to give credit to the best villain of all time

 

[Mariolee]

That was a cool clip. I wonder what GAF...

Oh..

Oh.

Hey...hey....hey.....did you know Cavill is bald?

Why is this movie getting nitpicked the SHIT out of it here?

 

[Bishop89]

yeh it does look like the smokenade has a smidge of kryptonite in it after seeing supes face after he swoops through it.

 

[neorej]

Loved it, Will Arnett out of the blue! I love these kinds of skits.

Gadot is too skinny! lololol
batfleck is fat! lololol

"Inturrnet, it's cool to hate"

 

[Dcube]

Damn that looks great. Love the look of Gotham in the back. The fight between these two will be so epic, I'm thinking this film will have the best comic book movie action yet.

 

[LosDaddie]

The bullet in the gun will have some form kryptonite

The "Deleted Scene" skit was uploaded as well.

How is Jimmy screaming in space?

Not caring for Man of Steel or Zack Snyder, tired of super hero movies in general, bandwagoners for whatever is popular hatin' on the newcomer, actual marvel fans that dislike DC (probably not that many people, comic fans are generally comic fans and not loyal to one company).

trying to apply logic in a comic book movie with features an alien god and a billionaire fighting crime in a bat suit

The batman even plans for nice dramatic weather and backdrop for his fights too...

...that's my GOAT

 

[thehypocrite]

Does Superman BLEEEEEEEEEE—never mind, I'll just watch the clip.

Edit: OK, sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but this grimdark shit really doesn't work for these characters. Maybe's it's just the movie's overall aesthetic I'm having a problem with, but I find it oppressively gloomy. It doubles down on the tone I disliked in Man of Steel. And Batman's flashlight eyes look dumb. I will still see this movie but I remain skeptical.

Joke post? You can't write grimdark without Batman.

 

[neorej]

it's Gotham, the weather is worse than Britain's.

 

[Ricky_R]

Liked the scene very much. Skit was better though.

10/10 skit

 

[Htown]

I can't do this anymore. Please no more MoS destruction discussion. Kill me now.

uh, you should probably skip Batman v Superman

 

[Ashhong]

Why are people saying he lost sight of Batman?

Batman is clearly still directly in front of him when he gets out of the smoke. He runs through and then thinks "something was weird about that smoke there" and looks back at it. Probably some kind of kryptonite smoke.

 

[SArcher]

How was Superman sure he wouldn't flat out kill Batman when he punches him through a building?

 

[strafer]

That's why he's wearing that suit. To protect him.

Pre-smoke Batman is right on the corner of a broken ledge on the roof

post-smoke Batman is standing in the middle of the roof next to a roof skylight. In fact, its the same roof skylight you can see directly behind Superman when the smoke grenade goes down at his feet.

Meanwhile, Superman is a few feet away from the edge he just threw Batman into.

Logically, this reads as Batman somehow moving really fast behind Superman as he races forward to try and surprise him with this gun attack.

How was Superman sure he wouldn't flat out kill Batman when he punches him through a building?

Plot Armor

 

[Cafeman]

I'm reminded of how old Batman attacks Superman in The Dark Knight Returns - . Bats was the supreme strategist taking down Superman. He used his mech suit, all the city's electricity, and general great fighting to keep Supes busy and to mildly hurt him. And Supes was weak from a recent nuclear blast / lack of sunlight anyway. Then the coup de grace -

Spoiler

Old Green Arrow fired the Kryptonite arrow. But it didn't pierce Superman - it exploded in his face - he was infected by Kryptonite, bringing him down closer to Batman's level.

Batman won! I hope the film's Batman is shown to have that level of cleverness and strategy.

( Of course, in the end all he has to do is pull out some previously-unseen Green Kryptonite out of a lead-encased utility belt compartment. )

The trailer - we are only seeing pieces of it. You can't complain about seeing clips out of context and without the end-of-film final explanations. It's likely there is more to the smoke and diversions, and that little bullet Bats shoots, of course.

Since the end-goal of the film isn't for there to be a game-ending winner, but Bats and Supes and Wonder Woman will be allies, I can't imagine how far the BvS battle will go.

I'd probably crack up if Bats presses a button after all that, ejecting him out of the possibly lead-based mech suit, and he is wearing Kryptonite. Fight over!

Spoiler

It seems like there's a few traps up his sleeve, I think he starts the fight with some gun turrets, it was shown in the concept art and it lines up with a shot of a trailer where Superman is being shot from all angles.

Agreed. I'm not sure if Bats is testing Superman's invulnerability further, or all part of the master strategy.

Spoiler

If film Batman is the world's greatest detective , then logically he'd have already deduced Superman's power and invulnerability, from watching the Zod battle and whatever else has happened since then. But for the film audience, it might be fun to show Batman testing Superman's limits.

 

[Messypandas]

I imagine Batmans suit is also lead based.

 

[Jean Valjean]

Not only Supes can't see through smoke, he can't hear Batman moving, even with his superhearing.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

That skit was surprisingly good.

Also Will Arnett!
