Of course, the bit that's there looks great.
Zack Snyder can always make a wonderful trailer.
Though.... pretty dumb to have it released (though it wasn't exactly WB's plan) on the same day as the Star Wars 7 trailer....

Just got home from work and watched both trailers(Star Wars and Dawn Of Justice)
You are right-releasing them on the same day is a weird move!
Regarding DOJ:
It is difficult to tell given the lack of quality of the footage(taken from some-one's phone I assume)
Looks dark!!
My personal problem with modern fantasy flicks is that there is no real sense of size. Man Of Steel felt like a couple of actors in front of a green screen-ditto for Star Trek-Into Darkness.
This trailer is giving me that same feeling(the Force Awakens trailer did too)of what I like to call "false epic size" .
Basically- the grander the scale(think Lord Of The Rings CGI armies of 1000s) - the smaller the components(50- 100 extras in front of blue/green screen) needed to make it!
Remember when Donner shut down half of 42nd street just to film peoples reaction to a trapped chopper! It gave that scene a sense of epic realism.
Nowadays it would be filmed with a few extras against a green screen--the extras would then be duplicated many times over(via CGI) to give the impression of a larger crowd(digital or CG people would then be added too) - and voila!-that is how it is done these days-
Just watched Divergent for the first time a few weeks ago and you could tell that the crowds were CG duplicates or just CG!
I will take the old school style of film making any day of the week.

Can someone post the words to the voice-overs? The captions are not available for a leaked trailer, obviously.

I love the (SPOILERS?) white eyes on the Batman costume. They never looked right in the Dark Knight.

As many on the net mentioned, that bit totally looks like Lego Batman.

Great timing actually. WB KNOWS it was going to leak - to put a reminder while Avengers is coming out.

I actually like the trailer--- but I always expected to. I'm surpised at the hate it's getting.
I just think if they waited a month or so, it could have had total buzz around the net for itself.
I don't think ANY trailer is well served to be put in the same time frame as the SW one.... unless they don't mind sharing the spotlight...

I know I'm barely here anymore, but I won't have someone dishonoring the legacy of Superman CINEMA by dropping homophobic slurs. You've been warned.

Anyway...I liked it for what it was. I'm mixed. As a teaser it gives just the right amount of tease without giving too much away. Visually it was cool but still a bit too dark if they are trying to show distinctions between Superman and Batman. When they're both dark and conflicted and displayed in dark settings it gets a bit monotonous. That's Snyder in a nutsheck tho right? Cool trailers for mediocre movies. The watchmen trailers were that way too.
Saw a fan edit of a Reeve vs Keaton version of the teaser and it was ten times more awesome. That's where this whole thing could die on the vine. The real one is a superman we don't know vs a batman we've never met. Hopefully WB hasn't overblown their expectations of how much the average Joe wants to see Batman fight Superman in the same movie.

Unless it turns out to be a great film... ... then I hope WB does overblow their expectations, have it underpeform, and give the reigns to the superheroes to someone who can be a quality Kevin Feige equivalent. Again- if it turns out great and suprises me, I'll eat my words, though.
