El Mayimbe, formerly of Latino Review, announced last week that he's launching his own website called Heroic Hollywood. While the site is being built, El Mayimbe took to Instagram to share some more promo art from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

The hate is strong for DC in general. It's kind of amusing because it'll be all the more satisfying to watch them all eat their words.

What's in my head while watching that promo-art.
-upper promo art-
Batman: take this clark! (punch supes in the face)-lower promo art-
Superman: stop it. (Have bats neck in his hand)
Batman: just kidding clark, i'm just kidding.2 likes
I would believe they're real if not for these! However it's still very cool and I like it nonetheless! Didn't check to see if someone else posted these, if so, sorry.
2 likesThese actually do look a bit more cartoony and emotive than the other releases like some of you guys have said, plus as has been pointed out these two don't bear that much resemblance to Cavill particularly whereas the others did to Gal, Henry and Ben.
How sure are you that these are real, Chris? The other ones looked real but something about these ones, awesome as they are, feels kinda off in terms of their legitimacy. We'll wait and see.

Which is strange because the first photo resembles him and the art style doesn't seem that different in the second photo. Just completely off with that head.

It looks like Convergence Superman, nothing like Cavill.

That's cuz it's concept art. And not promo art
1 likeBut his hair in the film is the traditional look. Why would it being concept/promo art change that?

On the note of Gonzales/El Mayimbe, has anyone noticed he openly refers to himself and his fans as "fanboys," ignoring the fact that word is deliberately loaded with negative connotations and doesn't actually mean the same thing as 'fans?'
The guy's not only unreliable he's kinda ignorant about this industry.I'm glad he's supplying us with this but him "breaking" the Joker photos by reposting them is getting old, as well as all of his "reliable sources'" scoops about things which are getting constantly disproved, he takes a lot of credit for a lot of things which aren't necessarily his alone and I'm growing tired of his constant Kevin Fiege worship and his "BOOMS" when he posts, but that's just personal dislike I guess.
9 likesAlso he breaks things that were rumored months back. Like Doomsday. I think the guy just makes guesses most the time to remain relevant.
2 likesExactly, I think Doomsday was like a year ago too and I thought Latino Review was one of those 'rumour' mongers back then.
He's alright with casting but I think he honestly just throws out so many ideas for stories with plausible and obvious scenes in some that he then says "my scoop was right" when he gets one obvious thing right out of a hundred misses.

He was wrong about Joe Manganiello. The actor even said he wasn't in talks for Deathstroke. No need to lie from his part since it already didn't work out. So bullshit.
He said there would be a Planet Hulk film while Ruffalo stated recently that Marvel can't even make another Hulk film without another studio, Universal, which has the rights to solo Hulk films. Pretty sure Universal has no interest and eh maybe never mentioned that deal-breaker, which means he doesn't know shit about the inner-workings of the studios. So bullshit.
Said that Bale would return as Batman. Bale later confirmed that he was never even approached. Again, no reason to lie from the actor's standpoint. So bullshit.
Said that Chris Pine would be Green Lantern TWICE. Back in 2009, it was bullshit. Thus far in 2015, it hasn't come true.
Said that Asa Butterfield has the role of Spider-Man. NOT confirmed. Multiple trades have said that other actors are still testing.
The guy makes shit up. At best, he just releases information without checking any real sources because he probably doesn't have any reliable ones. The trades have debunked him multiple times. Sure, he gets 1 out of 10 correct but that's not good enough for me. He has not been right most of the time. He has some promo art of Batman v Superman. Cool. I still wouldn't trust any of his "scoops." Check out Hollywood Reporter, they have real scoops every single day. Just my opinion.
4 likesAgreed. To call him a theorist would be more accurate than 'journalist.'
1 likeHell yes!

I don't think it is because of how closely they resemble it. It's very possible that somebody went off those images in Photoshop and used a couple of art programs to make these. I'll assume that much until WB confirms/denies it.
1 likeI don't think these are real anymore. It's also bad enough that it's El Loco Nacho Mayimbe Grande.
5 likesLooks like concept art so the could be real.
I'm pretty sure Mayimbe is getting these from that guy at "Blu-ray forums" doe. He said he got his hands on the BvS artbook or something like that

Besides that you were emailed the photos by someone as well, is there another way you know that these photos are in fact genuine?

Could be imagining it, and I wish I hadn't noticed it because I don't want to spoil anything too important for myself, but don't Batman's eyes look green in the second? ... Kryptonite confirmed?
2 likesI don't believe so, just the regular lens that was shown in the trailer. I can't imagine Bruce would put something that is potentially radioactive so close to his eyes.
3 likesGotcha, thanks for clearing that up!
1 likeKryptonite is possible though. Somehow Superman has to lose a portion of his power.
1 likeYeah that's true. I also wonder, based on that shot in the trailer of Superman holding what appears to be a Russian missile, how faithful to Frank Miller certain aspects of the story will be. Because that has ramifications for Superman's powers, too.

8 likesI have no idea if this is good or bad but if it makes Amell cry some more then that's great! Guy kept whining about not being included in the cinematic universe.
2 likesHey, Amell's a cool guy, give him a break. He openly supports the DCCU but wanted to be involved and probably will be one day if they do Crisis- can you blame him for being a bit disappointed? Either way he's helming the DC TV universe and he's said multiple times he's ecstatic about that. He doesn't NEED to say it, you can tell.
I prefer the universes separate, but he's not just a whining fanboy about the universes being separate, he's sticking up for his very talented friend and costar who he thought could pull off being Flash in a movie. Give him a break, and please watch some of his Q and As and whatnot before suggesting he's ever whined about not being included. Seriously, "if it makes Amell cry then that's great," and then you call him a whiner? Think what you want of him, that's being petty.
5 likesAmell isn't a cool guy, he's THE cool guy.
1 likeI wouldn't say that. His first season's acting has been stronger than Amell's and he's got several movies lined up as big roles, it won't be too long before he leads one.
2 likesFor sure, but Amell's lining up for that kind of thing and Grant's very popular. When you've got people who honestly cannot act in movies great TV actors helming a very popular TV series like Grant aren't long shots, certainly enough of a chance to not use "never."
1 likeFlaws with your post:
- Ignoring acclaim and praise for his acting on Flash.
- Acting as if TV is somehow the medium for weaker actors nowadays, and if you honestly think that you really need to pay more attention to the industry.
- And above all pretending you know what his future holds. I'm from the future, not you.

Maybe B-List but that's a Longshot
1 likeHe played the game pretty well though. Almost 18 months ago, he posted a picture of the Justice League on his facebook page and got his fans all riled up. Then when asked about Justice League, he said that he would love to be in it. When DC and WB announced that the two universes would be separate, he threw a hissy fit. He said the DCTU didn't need the movies and then said he wouldn't want to be in Justice League because he didn't want to undercut his show.
Yes, I'm sure you wouldn't want to be in a 200 million dollar production that will be seen by over 50 million people worldwide. He lost me with his antics. I know all actors pull them but I felt that was very disingenuous of him. Just IMO of course.
3 likesFans made all these memes of the Justice League, and they were good. Meant nothing more than the AOS crossover ones he's posted. He's always said he didn't want to abandon Arrow, you would know that if you knew more about the guy (not a personal attack, but it's pretty clear, honestly, you don't). He wanted to be in the movie from day one, but he said from back then too if that meant sacrificing the show, which is his life and love, then no. Criticising of his employers who he constantly thanks isn't a 'hissy fit,' and it's a fanboy mentality to think otherwise. He wasn't whining, his comments were valid.
I think you must have read my post wrong if you think he WOULDN'T want to be in that movie. He would be, but if it comes with such sacrifices, Arrow is really his life. I think you underestimate how much he loves it. It's all very well to have that opinion, but don't base it on such mentalities and mistaken notions is all. It's fine not to like the guy, but suggesting 'if it makes him cry that makes me happy' is a bit petty, don't you think?
1 likePerhaps it is a bit petty but that's just how I feel about the guy or how I perceived his behaviour. The image I was speaking about was an old Justice League cover with Green Arrow on it. It wasn't fanart, so he was obviously very interested in being in the film.

Oh and these are Arrow's ratings for its third season finale.
CW Arrow (8-9:03PM) - Season Finale
1.0 rating2.83 million viewers
None of the actors deserve to be anywhere near the DCCU. Both WB and DC know this.
2 likesRatings are fine and all but I'm of the honest opinion they don't show quality- same as box office, or masterpieces wouldn't make quiet box offices and jokes like Transformers 4 big box office numbers. The Arrow finale was a letdown imo and the writing was off, but that wasn't the fault of the actors.
2 likesTrue, I just mean that there aren't THAT many people clamoring for them to appear in the films.
