One final silhouette shot to cap the trailer off, with Batman walking coolly towards a car-crashed Penguin, as a fire billows in the background.

Though he's relatively new on the scene, there's no doubt that this is an extremely capable Dark Knight, who's feared by Gotham's criminal scum. Just look at the terror on Penguin's face here - the poor guy looks like he's seen a ghost.

Batman uses a ton of brute force, sure - especially this one! But above all else, he should be a symbol of fear, and based on this trailer, it looks like Reeves and Pattinson have nailed both sides of the character.

He has been writing and video editing for 10+ years, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers and uploading them to YouTube (they're admittedly a bit rusty by today's standards). If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order or to tell you about the making of 1988's Remembrance of the Daleks, Danny is the person to ask.
