Will The Flash Make An Appearance in Batman vs. Superman?



Batman vs. Superman comes out in theaters March, 25th 2016, and we’re all waiting in anticipation for DC’s biggest blockbuster ever.  Three trailers have been released regarding characters having major and possibly minor roles in the film.
            Comicbook.com reports that General Zod could be transformed into Doomsday, Darkseid’s minions are shown in Batman’s nightmare sequence, Aquaman swimming as a child, and the list goes on and on.  But what about the Flash?  Is he so fast that the naked eye is incapable of seeing him? Examining the trailers more closely may indicate that he has been there all along.
            If you look at the second trailer that was ever put out for this movie via Youtube at https://youtu.be/0WWzgGyAH6Y  or you can go to the official BatmanvSupermanDawnofJustice.com website and click on Comic Con trailer in the top left hand corner. Go to 2:45 to 2:47, first we see someone speeding on their motorcycle to the presumed attacked Lexcorp location, then  possibly the same person walking across fired rounds. A majority of theorists have speculated that this is Lex Luthor checking on his company. While this is possible,  I believe that person walking is the Flash.       
            Let’s look at the person on the motorcycle. I can’t tell you if it’s the same person walking across the fired rounds; however, this person appears to have an authority for presence at a crime scene.   We all know that Flash’s alter ego, Barry Allen, portrayed as a forensic scientist that is always late, slow, and clumsy.  Barry Allen could be the speeding motorcyclist on an already established crime scene because he was late getting there.  Look at the guard on the right, he’s giving the motorcycle rider a signal to slow down, not stop. So this person could be either the Flash or Lex and I’m leaning in favor of the Flash.
            Now let’s examine the second part of the frame;  the person walking across the fired rounds.  The first time I watched this trailer, I thought this was the Flash.  First of all, who is to say that this scene corresponds with the previous scene mentioned?  This could be in any part of the movie.  This scene obviously has some significance for them to show it in this trailer.

            Let’s break down the scene.  If you look real close you can see two pistols, an empty clip for the pistol, an empty clip for an automatic rifle, the used rounds, and a basketball.   A basketball?  What is so important about the basketball in a facility like this?  Were the guards playing a friendly game of b-ball that turned violent?  Of course not. I think the Flash was playing ball with friends.  He, then, either got called or saw that there was trouble and rushed to the location to stop the bad guys with basketball being the only casualty.  Look at the shoes on the person who is walking, they are high tops that are not laced up and have the pants tucked into the top.  It’s more than a coincidence that there is a person wearing basketball shoes with a flat basketball in the background.  Also, look at how thick the soles are on the shoe.  We all know the Flash needs custom shoes to run at the speeds he does without burning up his shoes. These two scenes taken in context of the entire trailer provides strong evidence that the Flash will make an appearance in the upcoming Batman vs. Superman movie.  Tell me what you think below.
