Batman/Superman Memes Come True in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Just Us

There’s some … tension brewing between two of DC’s biggest heroes. What? No, they’re not going to fight. Don’t be ridiculous; they’re both good guys! No, we’re talking about romantic tension, and they’re finally getting the movie they deserve to let their true feelings for each other show through in this recut railer from Wired:

We’re not the first people consider a Clark Kent-Bruce Wayne romance, but since we also have a crack video team, we decided to tweak the Batman v Superman trailer to see what a rom-com between the two would look like. Behold: Batman Meets Superman: Dawn of Just Us!

Of all the memes that have come out of Batman v Superman‘s angsty marketing, Batman Hearts Superman is easily our favorite, so this genre-bending trailer feels kind of inevitable. Just look at those longing glances! Bonus points for the repurposing of Ben Affleck’s speech from Chasing Amy, too. I’m sure he’d rather you think of that than the Batman connections in his other Kevin Smith-related work—yes, this guy is now actual Batman.

We’ve still got nine days left until the movie’s March 25 debut and we’ve already got the cross-genre trailer recut, so here’s hoping things just get even more ridiculous as the final marketing push ramps up over the next week and a half.
