No. They didn't "have to" show anything. But why not show her? It's like it was supposed to be a secret plot twist.

Anyway- good trailer. Jeremy Irons is great as Alfred. Batman in action looked great. I still hope that there will be some surprise with Luthor. Maybe I'm just fooling myself, but with Alfred, Batman and Wonder Woman all looking to be pretty much spot-on, it just seems crazy that they'd go with such a clownish "Doctor Insano" Luthor without there being something more to it. Also, there is this photo, the first that was released, of a very different looking Luthor, so something's up.

Wonder Woman is growing on me, you go girl.

I've just watched the last trailer (via AngryJoe) and it was WAY better than the previous ones.
I was fed up about superheroes, but that video made me a bit hyped ;)

You might want to get that checked out. Superheroes growing on your body can lead to an increase in villainous encounters.

Do you mean he's a superhero spawner?
He eats after midnight and.. POP! 2 Batmans and 1 Aquaman appear.

Unfortunately, I don't think BvS wil be met with the same enthusiasm. Not because it wo't be good, in fact I expect it to be very good, but because, as I realised after last year's success of Jurassic World and Force Awakens and now Deadpool... the movie itself doesn't matter. It's success is decided long before, by the enthusiasm it generates before it ever hits the screen. Jurassic World and Force Awakens was lame, tame, redundant, predictable and as by-the-numbers as possible, but it didn't matter- everyone was so hyped up about them, it was impossible for those people to not like it once they see it. They already made up their minds, and changing them would recuire a degree of critical thinking most people simply are not capable of. It was decided that Deadpool will be the best thing ever before it even went into production, after the leaked test footage. Everyone was "yes, this is bad-ass!" and that's how it stayed. The movie is actually far more tame and formulaic than one would think, but most people see it as the violent, profane, ball-to-the-wall ride they decided it will be months ago. BvS doesn't have that, because it's been decided long ago that Marvel does everything right, and DC movies suck. BvS has been getting a lot of bad press, with nothing to substantiate the negativity, simply to cater to that point of view. As a result, it's going to be fighting an uphill battle, and even if it the greatest superhero movie ever made, it will still be lucky if it's anywhere near the financial success the studio hopes for.

Fuck the Marvel fanboys bashing on Batman v Superman and Man of Steel.

People like ScreenJunkies and Cinemasins piss me off to no end when it comes to this movie.

Also my 2 cents:

I was not too excited for Jurassic World, and was meh on it anyway. I just watched it with my dad to see something.

Force Awakens dissipointed in the same way Godzilla 2013? dissipointed me.

Deadpool, I sort of already knew what it was gonna be and it was. Not that its a bad movie its just that I already been exposed to Deadpool on the internet so much its pretty much what I expected. But I am convinced that the charcater is gonna replace Batman and other heroes as America's favorite hero.

A Hero that is gonna become increadibly dated in the years to come.

I think hollywood underestimates the value of the previous movie, and Man of Steel was kickass. You could hardly start a DC universe from a better movie really.

And I think everyone loves superheroes at the moment and Batman and Superman are some of the most well known. It's Batman. Versus. Superman... It was written on a poster in the future I Am Legend. Everyone has to go see it, even so they can complain about it later. Plus it's Zack Snyder, so wow, it's going to kickass visually and audio-ly.

But we'll see I guess.

Boring.
