I saw the Lego set. I think some of these spoilers might be true. Also, if the Lego set is accurate, Lex Luthor fights WW/Superman/Batman w/Batwing using a militarized news helicopter.

I don't remember, but if so, then yeah, use that as the "legitimacy test." The branded guy in the prison scene is in the trailer, so it most likely didn't get cut.

Here's a USA TODAY article on BvS and Sucide Squad: http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2016/01/10/batman-v-superman-suicide-squad-2016-superhero-movies/78249180/

I found this part pretty interesting:

quote:

Cavill says that Superman is very much using kid gloves with Batman - “He can sure as hell take Batman out if he wants to, and Batman takes advantage of that,” Cavill says, comparing Superman’s constrained Clark Kent side to a dad playing football with a bunch of children. “He’s not going to go all-out against the kids because he’ll end up smashing people around. It’s the idea of still wanting to have fun but no one gets hurt, so you’re being careful about where your knees and elbows are going. That’s what Clark is for me, but Superman is far more relaxed. Superman is dad just being dad at home.”

Just to actually get back on the Lego set for a moment, though, the detail on the minifigures actually looks pretty interesting and more ornate that I normally see on these things (judging by the box photos):

Wonder Woman has brown hair instead of the traditional black that most of her Lego minifigs have and it looks like darker colors on the costume. They manage to capture the trailer's movie Luthor look pretty well. Superman's hair is 100% movie accurate. Also, why is Lois using a camera? Is Jimmy dead?!

In all seriousness, A possible spoilers in these sets

Yeah, let's call them henchmen so we feel less bad about Batman just messing up some gainfully and legally employed working stiffs.

What do you mean, what do we need kryptonite for? The whole purpose of getting Kryptonite in the first place was to get Superman all weak and powerless so we can take them to a nice comfortable place in the lab, and, you know, they can't refuse. Because of the implication.

I'm not really sure. Like they're selling Batman but so far almost every single piece of footage is Batman getting his poo poo pushed in or looking like an rear end in a top hat. The climax of the trailer is Batman briefly blocking Superman's fist! (among shots of Superman sending him flying multiple times.) They might be going for the Underdog thing which would work if there was even a 1% chance that Superman wasn't going to be a heroic figure who Batman eventually allies with.

I'm assuming the working theory is kryptonite in the suit?

I'm curious how it gets there. I think the most likely way is that Lex supplies Batman with it somehow after discovering its powers by experimenting on it with Zod's corpse. Why Batman would accept it, I don't know, but at that point I'm sure he's looking for any edge he can get on Superman, so even "teaming up" with Lex is acceptable.
