GEEKERY: Superman Vs Batman “Final” Trailer
We’ve got a new, proper trailer… and it’s a total about face from the last one. Take a look!
If you saw Deadpool this weekend – or watched the Super Bowl – you’ve probably seen the “final” trailer for Dawn of Justice.

My first thought when I saw it: Where was this trailer in December? Why did we get this mess of spoilers first… or at all?

This is a perfect example of how editing a trailer can kill or sell a project. Two months ago it looked like a so-so movie with questionable casting; now we’re looking at a Zack Snyder style action movie that could be fun. They’re selling an entirely different movie in each trailer – and they may have just saved some ticket sales with the new cut. If you reversed the two, or pulled the December trailer entirely, the hype for this movie would be much higher.
This is still the only Batman vs Superman I’m interested in… unless someone wants to embark on a massive dubbing project. Only Kevin Conroy can do the Batman voice. Period.
Has this new trailer changed your mind?
