It appears that Warner Bros. has decided that to really rev us up for next month’s release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, we ought to know a bit more about Ben Affleck’s take on the Caped Crusader.

While there aren’t as many coming out movies as there used to be, it’s certainly not a genre that has gone away, and if they’re done well, they can still be entertaining and worthwhile.
