Latino-review reported on a post on a message board called NeoGaf. The post contained potential MAJOR spoilers for the now not as upcoming "Man of Steel"\"Batman vs. Superman"\"Justice League" movie. Please be forewarned, these are all rumor, but never the less, could be mondo spoilers.
Ready?
The villians are Lex Luthor and Metallo
Batman forms a UN type deal to stop Superman from destroying another city
Aquaman is in it, but not called Aquaman. He’s there because the world engine in the ocean did something to the fish
Wonder Woman poses as a Wayne Enterprises investor to retrieve an item that belongs to her people.
Lex Luthor is in the shadows a lot, a manipulator. Not much face time with Superman.
Robin betrayed Batman at some point, leading to a falling out between them
The Batcave was super cool looking, and the Batmobile looked similar to Burton’s 1989 version.
Lois is investigating Lex.
Metallo “kills” Clark
The Daily Planet is bought by Lex Luthor for PR purposes
At the end Superman is living in exile, and the Justice League is an government approved superhero team.
Now, here is what sticks out to me, if any of this is true. If it's not, well... we have plenty of time to speculate and pick apart the next batch of rumors.
The whole Snyder Comic-Con bomb drop quoted Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns". Unless I missed a He'll of a lot in that book, none of that happened. I suppose the reference could just be for the flavor of the Barman Affleck will be playing. Or, maybe they are flipping it and it's Batman the President asks to help him get a handle on Sups. The rumor of two different bat suits is now out and about as well. One being armored. Which would fall in line with Miller's story to some extent.
The purchase of the Planet by Lex has seen numerous incarnations over the years. One being on "Smallville". Which would put Lois in a position to grow suspicious.
With all the mentions of "government approved" and "UN type deals", it wouldn't be out of the question to see Waller and the beginnings of the Suicide Squad. There has been plenty of talk regarding that property as a movie, and if this is going to be the launching point for a shared DC Universe, it makes sense to bring the introduction of them in during a mainstream release like this to introduce them to a wide audience that has no idea who they are. Think Black Widow and Hawkeye. Marvel has done an amazing job getting non comic book fans to give a cheap who these characters are.
In any event, we are sure to have plenty more to dissect between now and 2016.
