The new Batman vs. Superman trailer has Doomsday, Diana and so much Luthor
My biggest worry about Batman vs. Superman has been the relentless grimness of so much of the promotional material so far. I guess that’s what makes the nuttiness of the new one at least, I don’t know, a little exciting? Surprising? There are jokes but also Doomsday? Wonder Woman shows […]
