"Star Wars" got some of its thunder stolen yesterday, when the new "Batman v. Superman" trailer hit the web on the same day the new "Star Wars 7" trailer premiered. In this case, though, it was NOT an official release.
The video was shot in a theater with a handheld camera, and it has Portuguese subtitles. But it's pretty awesome. It takes place in a world where Superman isn't regarded as a wholesome American hero. People seem to mistrust and even hate him.
It's obvious he and Batman are heading for a fight. There's even a scene where Batman is wearing some kind of metallic armor. At the end of the clip, he tells Superman, quote, "Tell me: Do you bleed? You will."
(It was quickly removed from YouTube, and "Variety" also deleted their copy of it. As of last night, you could still see it here.)
