I'd look at her too. She's attractive. But... for the context of the scene it was ridiculous.

Yes, that scene was the most ridiculous thing in "Furious 5".

Decided to spoil this just in case, though some of this has been discussed in this thread.

Spoiler:
BATMAN V. SUPERMAN: Bruce Wayne Nightmare Confirmed, THE FLASH To Cameo?

In case you were debating whether or not the Batman v Superman scene we saw last week was a dream sequence, we now have confirmation that it is. Plus, we have new details on Batman's DCEU history, the Trinity's costumes, and a possible cameo from The Flash!

Earlier today, at the CCXP - Comic Con Experience 2015, Michael Wilkinson, who designed the costumes for Warner Bros.' Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice, spoke at length about creating the costumes for DC's iconic Trinity - Superman, Batman, & Wonder Woman. In his chat with Omelete, he dropped a handful of very interesting details about the upcoming Zack Snyder-directed film.

The biggest of his many reveals was that we will catch a glimpse of at least one other key Justice League member - The Flash. Now, the extent of his cameo is yet-to-be seen, so while there is a chance we actually get to see Ezra Miller suited up in costume, there's an equally good chance that we only catch a shot of him speeding around on a TV screen (something which has been previously rumored).

In case you were still on the fence about whether or not that intriguing Batman v. Superman scene that debuted with the fall finale of Gotham last week was a dream or not, Wilkinson confirmed that it was in fact a part of an extended nightmare sequence for Bruce Wayne. He doesn't elaborate much more, but does describe it as a "post-apocalyptic vision" that will feed Wayne's obsession over the perceived threat of Superman. So, whatever those flying creatures are, they're almost certainly not Darkseid's Parademons, unless they're just clever Easter Eggs that were added to foreshadow the upcoming two-part Justice League films.

Additionally, we learned from Wilkinson that in the DC Extended Universe, Batman has been operational for over twenty years and that this film takes place nearly eight months following the cataclysmic events of Man Of Steel.

Did you think they were doing otherwise?

Spoiler:
We knew Bruce was going to be in his late 40s in this so it makes sense Batman would've been active for that long versus just starting out. The only thing we're getting from this past are flashbacks for his parents' deaths and, this is based off of rumor only, the death of Robin at the hands of Joker with maybe a cameo by Leto (but like I said, that was only a rumor and I haven't really read much beyond that).

This also would maybe lend to some credence they approached Bale to reprise his role. If he took it, along with the bags of cash, then they'd figure out how it would align with Nolan's universe.

This is just a continuation of a standard movie/TV trope that has reporters (especially PRINT reporters) covering benefits and award ceremonies for rich people. Something that just doesn't happen. My favorite part is when that coverage ends up on the front page. I know it's done for simplicity's sake ("Batman, come look at this tiny blurb in the E section.") but aside from maybe having paparazzi there if celebs are involved, it's just not happening.

Wow....

Spoiler:
20 years? Damn... makes Nolan's Batman look like a complete pussy. He operated for 2.5 years, took 7 off, came back for a bit and then quit again.

It really seems like Bale didn't care for how much money was offered. If Nolan wasn't part of it... he was out. The guy stuck to his guns. He's mentioned it before. How they asked a good amount of times to do it but he only would w/ Nolan. And since Nolan left it... so did Bale.

Oh I know, but I doubt it didn't stop Warner from trying even if only briefly before moving on.

Oh, they tried I bet. Shit. They tried to get Nolan to move on it too. No dice.

Re: Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) (D: Snyder; S: Gadot)

I thought I read something where Bale was supposedly upset about not being approached to play the character again. Unless that was just bullshit.

Spoiler:
I'm also curious as to what Diana has been up to during the whole time Bruce has been active as Batman. Since her solo film takes place during World War II it's odd that she hasn't aged but also if Batman has been around for twenty years that they never would have encountered each other prior to the events of this film or at least known of each other's existence. Should be interesting to see how they explain her not aging, unless it's something similar to what happened to Captain America and she wakes up in modern times.

Well... she could just be a demigod. And that's her thing. She doesn't age and whatnot. Boom end of story.

Also isn't her film partly in WW1?

Yes it is and according to rumor:

In #BatmanvSuperman, Wonder Woman is old. Very old. How old? In the movie there are pictures of her that date HUNDREDS OF YEARS!

I guess the age thing makes sense. Still not sure I understand how they're going to explain that Batman has never even heard of Wonder Woman if he's been active for twenty years and presumably she's been around. Especially given that Bruce appears to know Diana.

He may just not know that she's a demigod?

But that wouldn't make sense cuz of that bit where he says that he thought she was with Supes.

Well to be fair, she is using a magical shield that's apparently able to hold back a nuclear-like blast so it'd make sense she's not exactly from this world thus he'd assume she was with Superman.

Yeah. But if he knows her before all that?

She's at that event that Kent and Wayne are at. There was a small rumor that Diana and Bruce knew each other. But if he's saying that when she shows up for the fight. Maybe they don't know each other.

Unless Bruce meets Diana at some point in the film before Lex's party. I still would find it odd though that he wouldn't be aware of Wonder Woman at all if he's been active for so long. The only thing that really makes sense is if for some reason Diana isn't active as Wonder Woman but I would imagine if there are villains in Gotham and the universe is already established that she would be out fighting villains of her own too (otherwise why would she have come into being Wonder Woman in the first place?). It seems odd that suddenly she'd only become active after the events of Man of Steel and Batman V Superman.

If Batman has been fighting crime for 20 years, why does Clark Kent ask Bruce Wayne what he thinks of the "bat vigilante"? At this point in time, wouldn't everyone just call him Batman and know he's a good guy? Kent makes it sound like he's a new thing in Gotham.

Yeah that too. The only thing I can think of is if maybe he was Batman previously but hasn't been active for a while and recently became active again. Even then though it does seem convenient that it would be the first thing Clark would ask Bruce about.

Or, Clark simply knows he's one of Gotham's biggest names (as Bruce Wayne: entrepreneur/millionaire) and wants his opinion about the goings on in the city he calls home.

Clark asks who Bruce is when he arrives at the party so I would guess he knows nothing about him. Even then it is kind of a random thing to bring up in their first meeting. If you were meeting someone like that and knew it I'd think you'd be more inclined to ask something more personal or business related.

Eh, the Amazons swear off from interfering in "Man's world" all the time. Maybe something happens in her solo movie to have them withdraw from the rest of the world. Or maybe they both know about her but don't know who's side she's on.
