Batman v Superman
I rarely get hyped. Usually, I have no problems with seeing the attempts at getting me hyped about something as what they are - marketing. That being said... I simply can't wait for "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and the last trailer turned my excitement up to eleven:
I'm a huge Batman fan. The opening to Batman: the Animated Series is actually one of my earliest memories:
It never failed to get my young self, scared and excited at the same time. Batman: the Animated Series was the first piece of art that wasn't talking down to me. It used the fun, heavily stylized, beautiful setting to tackle very important themes like the morality of vengeance, dealing with trauma and love. I was amazed at how well this show holds up when I rewatched it in my 20's. After the show came comic books and while the medium can be silly it also contains some of the best stories ever conceived. Long story short, I'm very excited. If you're not a comic book fan BvS should be a very enjoyable action movie. If you are one... I hope you're in for a treat!
