lol well yea.. I got the info off of Batman on film.. According to sources that he trusts the feeling is by releasing the first teaser early then its only a 15-16 month wait until the film comes out.. Also I fully expect a second trailer to air in february.

That's just well overdoing it with the marketing.
WB don't get that will likely backfire. Same happened with all the over saturation of marketing for TASM2.
And second trailer by Feb? I mean that's over a year before the movies out. Heck that's even before Avengers 2 is out.
Unless the teaser is just that little bit they put out at comic-con, it sounds desperate to me. They're trying to constantly compete with they Marvel hype, even though they're giving us no films the whole of next year. Didn't even give us any this whole year.

What overmarketing?
What OFFICIAL releases have they done, marketing wise, for this flick?
A picture of Batman.
A picture of Superman.
A picture of Wonder Woman.
Am I missing anything? I disagree with the assessment that a teaser next month is "Desperate."
The flick is going to be a really big deal to them, and they want people to get excited about it and look forward to it...

DC wasn't even thinking about a teaser until the Age of Ultron trailer dropped. On top of that BvS doesn't even come out until 2016 so DC planning to put up one out as early as February seems pretty darn desperate.
But like, that's what you're assuming though, right? Like, that's an assumption that they "weren't even thinking of releasing a teaser."
Like, they saw the Ultron trailer and were like "Oh yeah, previews are a thing that exist and that we need to do that too because that's what Marvel does with movies. They show previews of them. And that's the formula of Marvel. They show previews."
As well, you don't have any idea what this rumored teaser will look like or consist of, right?
edit: Sorry, re-reading my post, it looks really aggressive. I don't mean to be. Mainly I'm just seeing if you'll reconsider your point of view here.

Well it's alright but it still appears as if DC was scrambling after the AoU trailer dropped.
Other than the little bit from comic-con, DC hasn't even hinted at releasing anything new for BvS nor is their any news that filming has been finished yet they're planning a February teaser. Doesn't that seem the least bit odd?

Not really, It's not unheard of for a big studio picture to release a teaser way in advance of it's release, just to generate hype. You've got to keep in mind that comic-con footage wasn't even released publically, but was strictly for the audience at Comic Con. The only things genuinely released were on Snyder's own twitter, let alone a big public unveiling or something.
Teasers can come in all kinds of variety, even something as simple as "Ominous quote from the movie....slow logo fade in. Release date."
boom, teaser.
I'm interested in hearing Affleck's Batman voice, if any. Or even just seeing a high quality release of the comic con footage.
so, if dc and marvel were boxers in a ring, dc should just take all the punches and not throw anything back? i don't think dc is "scrambling" when the A2 trailer came out.. i'm pretty sure they were expecting it.. moves and counter-moves are always being made.. the studios do what they can to generate the numbers and the money.. i'm just happy that both marvel and dc are making this movies..

Its just them getting out word of mouth early, it happens a whole lot.. You know that WB/DC has a whole lot of catching up to do. Of course WB/DC is copying Marvel, the only thing they haven't copied is having solo films first.. I can clearly see them having another trailer ready to be shown during the Superbowl.. so people (especially those who love the marvel v dc shit) will be piss ante about it and try to badmouth Marvel

Query: What makes you go with "OF COURSE" they are copying Marvel?
Is this "copy" in this case having a movie with more than one superhero in it?

We're talking about trailers, not pictures. So yes you're missing quite a bit.
Having a trailer in 2014 for a movie coming out in 2016 stinks of desperation.
If it's just the little bit they showed at comic-con then that's fair enough for the 18 month mark. But Any Proper trailer more than 12 months before release of the movie is proper overdoing it.
As soon as people see an exciting trailer their first question is "when's this out" assuming it's within a few months. When the answer to that question is 2016, people will be like WTF?!

If that's the case, then I fail to see "desperation" behind the motives.
To me, (if a preview is released to the public soon) it seems like they're trying to spread product awareness and earlier is the smarter approach. Marvel hinted at/told us early on with the after-credit scenes that The Avengers was forming before an Avengers script was even typed. It was a brilliant strategy, had people blogging, tweeting, posting etc long before the film was made.
We technically got a micro-preview of X-Men: Apocalypse at the end of DoFP; that's not out until May 2016. Another smart move to build up hype.
edit: What I'm saying is, you might be acting just a little too critical here, Darth.

Maybe..
But Easter eggs in other movies is smart in that its kind of like a cliffhanger/tease, which just adds to an existing movie. WB couldn't do that with BvS because they had no concrete plan at the time of the last Superman/Batman films. Marvel greatly benefited from a detailed plan with their earlier movies, knowing exactly where they were going (being slightly flexible of course).
But when WB have no other DC films to market through but just want us to remember BvS is coming One Day, then I dunno. You run the risk of people getting bored of the marketing before the movies even out Imho.

Ah this must be my mistake, man. When you said BvS is being overmarketed, I thought you were referencing the marketing materials that were actually released. It turns out you are saying its being overmarketed with something that doesn't even exist.
