Also, that paragraph is after a spoiler warning. Want to edit it @Mr_Cosmic and @David_D ?
Sure. To be fair, a thread like this will get into speculation as well as discussion of things shown in trailers, leaked pictures from set, etc. so I would say a thread like this will get spoilery.
But I have edited the posts to add spoiler warnings.
EDIT- I also hadn't noticed these posts were in the Man of Steel thread. I moved them to the sequel thread where they belong.
Supposedly, Eisenberg's Luthor will be into tattoos big time, and have a sleeve of the Metropolis skyline down his right arm. He also became a self-made billionaire at 18, and is the CEO of Lexcorp. Despite currently being a ruthless businessman and complete tech genius, he's also got street smarts. At the age of 14 Lex was on the streets and it wasn't long before he was initiated into a street gang. Within a year, he was their boss. His resolve is his main weapon, and alongside being incredibly intelligent he's also got where he is thanks to his own hard work.

I don't believe any rumors about this movie. Have any of them turned out right? All of the rumors about Batman and his casting were wrong, all the Wonder Woman speculation was wrong, all the Lex speculation that I heard was wrong.
These aren't rumors, they're lies. A rumor is an unverified story. I don't believe any of these articles actually have sources that are saying this. I think they are just making stuff up.
The movie is over two years away. Filming hasn't started yet, except for second unit filming of a college football game. There is no reason to take any rumor even remotely seriously until filming is well underway.
Yeah, I think it's fair to assume that these "leaks," if even true, will change or be dropped from the final movie. It's just fun to read and speculate.

At this point, what would we talk about other than rumors?
So, Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas teaming up with the guy who directed "Shaun of the Dead" and "Hot Fuzz" for a movie called "Ant-Man" just scared WB, Batman and Superman into delaying a year. What?
Says one contributing factor is that Affleck got injured and is sidelined and they've delayed the start of production until later this year, making a July of next year release impossible. So, though production is only delayed a couple months, its caused them to delay release by 10 so it can be a May 2016 release.
2015 was too crowded anyway. That was supposed to be avengers 2, superman 2, star wars, ID4 2, Jurrassic Park 4, and many others.

Were those Ant-Man news pieces announced before or after January 18, which was when Planeis alerted us to the news of the delay for Batman vs. Superman?
Still possible the suit and car will suck, but this glimpse looks like more good than bad to me. The texture if the suit is a possible turn off and the car might turn out a bit too dune buggy-ish, but so far I'm pleased. If for no other reason than its looking different/new, more comic/historically accurate and most importantly not all armored up.
Yea... I'm not impressed at all. Maybe my view is distorted because I'm in the gym all the time. He looks fit, but he looks like just a very average joe kind of fit to me. Which is fine as far as I'm concerned because he's supposed to be an older Batman. But this line from the story is ridiculous: "Now obviously the costume provides a bit of extra definition etc, but I think it's safe to say that Ben Affleck will be playing the most physically imposing Bruce Wayne/Batman we've seen on screen thus far."
Um. No. He looks very normal. They try to say in the story that the suit didn't have much padding. Yes it did. The suit makes his chest look HUGE and his abs and arms and shoulders bulge. He looks fit. Good. But lets not go saying crazy things like "the most physically imposing Bruce Wayne we've seen on screen thus far."

When your competition is Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney and Christian Bale, that's not exactly setting a high bar. Not that they were out of shape or unhealthy (at least at the time they played the part), but none of them struck me as musclebound.

Superman / Batman delayed till 2016
One question... Who's face is that in the reflection on the left?
Scarecrow at a push?
The more I look, the it looks likes there's the shape if another man wearing a hat right next to the fish shape.
Maybe I'm just seeing things now though.
That's the wheel to the bat mobile, I'm willing to throw down cash on that.
Complete with a face-on-Mars image! But yeah I think that's one's brain activating our natural facial recognition where no face exists

Here are a few recent photos of Affleck. Look's like he's been in the gym.
