From the guy that made the Batman: Dead End trailer, here's one with Batman and Superman:
World's Finest (you need to click on 56k or 200k for the free streaming)
And this one looks even better, it's called Grayson (aka Robin). The trailer takes place about 20 years after Batman's prime...
Grayson
Haven't seen World's Finest yet (thanks for the heads-up) but saw Grayson a week ago and thought it looked so-cheesy-it'd-be-awesome. I like how they seem to give up halfway through the trailer and just start tossing in every major DC character they can think of.
Wow. Damn shame that's not a real movie coming out. I'd pay to see this in the theatres.
(here's hoping that the Batman Begins movie delivers next summer).
Can't connect to the iFilms site, it crashes my browser everytime. If anyone finds an alternate server please linky link.
P.S. Grayson has the greatest aspect ratio ever.
Grayson was pretty damn decent too. Someone should hire these guys.
I wouldn't pay to see this in theatres. It looks like complete cheese, like the old kind of superhero movies we used to get. The White House just has more locks and guards? Uhh, I'm pretty sure it has better technology, advanced security measures and even better security procedures for protecting its material.
Not only that, but whoever's playing Batman doesn't seem to know how to act, atleast, when he delivers the line: "YOU LET PEOPLE GET TOO CLOSE!". It's great that comic book nerds take the comics to the screen, and really, that's what this is. It's a comic book on screen, but as we've seen from the countless number of shitty comic book adaptations: You have to make compromises to turn the comic character into great big screen transformations.
It was entertaining, but I know when the actual version comes out I'll be laughing endlessly at it.
I also didn't enjoy the Batman vs. Predators vs. Joker vs. Aliens flick either. Again, it just seemed like nerding out for no apparent reason, which I guess some people really enjoy.
They're decent, they're not good.
For being independently made, that was very good. The only thing I would fault is the sub-par acting... but it's hilarious how these people can get the Batman character right when Hollywood hasn't even come close yet.
Hell, I'd watch it.
That Grayson one has some cool moments, but it just goes crazy with the characters... I can't see it coming together as a good, cohesive whole. Seems like some Elseworlds story where Dick and Barbara are married and have a kid, with some Dark Knight Returns no super-heroes around type government shit. That's too much.
Because, of course, he was being 100% literal.Quote:

I'd pay to see either of these in the theater. World's Finest definitely looks to be the better of the two. But I'm a sucker for cheesy low budget flicks and anything involving comic book characters.
Oh okay, I wonder what figuritive meaning "I'd pay to see that in theatres" had.Quote:

Be literal. Stop fronting.Quote:

I always thought "World's Finest" was an actual Warner Bros. project. The discription on hsx says this:
IMDB only references "World' Finest" as a trailer by Sandy Collora.Quote:
Superman and Batman will appear together in a live-action film. Warner Bros. has commissioned a script from Andrew Kevin Walker (Seven) with Wolfgang Petersen (The Perfect Storm) directing. This is a different project from either Batman: Year One or Superman 5.
I meant the Batman quote, BATMAN wasn't being literal about the White House, you nerd.Quote:

Wow, I really must've hit the nail on the head with that nerd comment. But you are, you're a comic book nerd. Every single thread about any upcoming shit productions including a man in spandex you're on like butter on toast. It's funny.... nerd.Quote:

I am a nerd. So are you. But you didn't hit any nail on any head because you throw that word around in nearly every post you ever make.Quote:

I use nerd only when it applies. For example, I use the word rubarb when talking about rubarb pie, rubarb and berry pie, and also small pakistany iffeminate idiots.Quote:

NERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
You're right, how dare he respond to something you said to him! But then, you keep replying back... so you must be offended by the word nerd as well!Quote:

After reading my last post, I think I was being a bit too harsh about this short indy. I mean, he does a pretty good job with what he has, and I think a lot of people respect that, but the last video he did just received such acclaim and praise that I was expecting something more then the mish mash of science fiction with DC superheroes... it seemed far fetched.
But this seems like it's more down to earth, and while I stick behind the acting being silly and some of the dialogue in the trailer corny and bad, the technicality in the cinematography is grand enough to carry poorer writing.
I don't have a problem being called a nerd, though I think of myself more a dork than anything. I really don't remember the last time you called me a nerd, but it didn't hurt my feelings or anything... so don't worry about that. I don't think I've ever taken anything around here "hard."Quote:

What's the difference between dorks and nerds?
Nerds have their own candy.
Thanks for the links Searchman-
I'd heard about the Worlds Finest one but didnt see it until just now.For what it is, a fan made preview ,it looks pretty good. There are some good ideas and moments there that are touched on, but I think one of the best Superman/Batman duos for film(where they meet and join up for the first time) has already been made , so it'd be hard to top it.I'm referring to the Worlds Finest animated movie - Lex Luthor, Joker, Harley Quinn, Bruce macking on Lois, a brief fight between Supes and Bats, and many other moments. Like I said hard to top, but that doesnt mean I wouldnt love to see a real movie on the subject matter.
The Grayson one Ive never even heard of. Awesome idea for a movie. I do agree with most of you about the influx and crowding of all of those DC heroes,,defintely wasnt needed. That and Robin needed a better hybrid Bat/Robin suit, not his little circus gear of old.But besides that - sweet idea - Probably would make a good movie if nurtured properly..
So a few hours ago you didn't call him a nerd in this thread until provoked which was actually a month ago? You're right, that is hard to comprehend.Quote:

No fronting here dude. It's just that the dork in me is strong and I'd galdly pay to see either of them if they were made.Quote:

I always wanted to see Batman Beyond: Year One (http://www.batinthesun.com/) but I've never been able to find it online.
Was that supposed to make sense? You did call him a nerd in this thread and then proceeded to talk about how you called him a nerd in this thread and other times (and whether or not you called him in a nerd in this specific thread wouldn't have mattered anyway since it was a general statement), and what you pointed out was that this started earlier and you even stated yourself that you called him such in this thread.Quote:

My rectum will shrink back to normal as soon as you remove your head. But before you go, could you give my prostate a good lick?Quote:
