7)Â Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice
Man Of Steel received a huge backlash after fans derided Superman’s wanton destruction of Metropolis. The Dark Knight seemed to agree, setting up an iconic battle between the two most iconic heroes the world has ever seen. Whether Snyder planned this all along or simply used the backlash to his advantage remains to be seen, but it’s hard to deny how satisfying this trailer is, watching the people of earth demand penance for the events that occurred within Man Of Steel.
That’s not all that this trailer has going for it, though. Obviously, the action sequences between Batman and Superman were bound to impress, but what’s most appealing about this initial showcase is how they used it to dispel two preconceptions that many held about the film.
First and most importantly, Ben Affleck actually looks like he could be great in the role of Batman, something that a huge bulk of the internet had held in serious doubt beforehand. Secondly, our first glimpse of Wonder Woman instantly made us forget the naysayers campaigning for Gal Gadot to be replaced. While we still have to see her actual performance, Gadot certainly embodies the Amazonian Princess far better than we could have possibly hoped.
