This week marks the 4 year anniversary of Batman v Superman
- Thread starter Dalek
- Start date
This movie could have been great... there's a lot in there that still is... but everything related to lex luther, the actual motivation of the batman v superman conflict, and doomsday ruins the movie.
No one stays good in this world
I wanted to leave the theater when Superman said that.

I really liked it, especially the ultimate cut. I'm still rocking my Batfleck avatar four years later.
This times a thousandWhy couldn't you post about this Batman/Superman crossover movie?
It beats the Snyder movie in every way possible.
Batman v Superman was just trash
It's like Snyder watched The Dark Knight and didn't understand a word of the conversation Bruce Wayne and Harvey Dent had.
Even with its flaws, I love this movie. It's been a while since I've seen it, I need to give it another go.
Riddler/Joker masquerading as Lex, Ninja Turtle Doomsday, "Martha", deaf-mute Superman, deranged Batman . . . . so many, many things were wrong with this movie. It never fails to amaze that the writer(s) and director chose to adapt end-of-the-line, de-constructive stories (ie. TDKR and Death of Superman) to kickstart the DCEU. Its probably why they missed the point of these comicboook characters.
Nope. There's plenty of parts with a yellow filter for some reason.
You mean the post-apocalyptic sequence that took place in a desert?
Nah, I remember one of the party scenes had it?
I saw it once years ago so my exact placement of it might be wrong. But it was during the present time.
I wish I could like this movie. I'm glad that it exists for those that love it, it seems to have resonated very strongly with some.
I just hope there will be a Superman movie that I'll enjoy someday soon. I love the character but really dislike this take on him.

Remember that part where Batman is in the batmobile chasing (and murdering) a bunch of bad guys shooting machine guns and rocket launchers out of the back of a truck and then Superman flies in and wrecks the batmobile and wags his finger at Batman for being too mean and doesn't seem interested in the machine gun shooting and rocket launching bad guys as they just drive away?
I actually think there's a good bit to like in BvS. The first third or so is solid and I dig the kooky fever dream stuff but the bad in the movie is SO bad it utterly ruins the whole thing.

Movie is an enjoyable disaster for me. It's also 100% Snyder, for better, and for most, worse. I tend to revisit those movies, however. Not necessarily Snyder's movies, but for a while, that's what superhero movies were about: Donner's Superman, Nolan's Batman, Raimi's Spider-man, Singer's X-men, Lee's Hulk, etc.. How did the director handle the material?
Terrible film only surpassed by its terribleness by Justice League. What an embarrassment of a wet fart that just shat on the spirit of two of the most iconic comic heroes.
It's a shame too because Ben Affleck was a beast of a Batman and Henry Cavil was a great Supes. The ingredients were all there. Even the god damn baking instructions was solid.
But leave it to Snyder to pull a Snyder and add an extra layer of shit to make a shit cake.
At least it had the best Batman costume.

Batman dragged a fucking car, filled with the dead people he just killed, and used it as a wrecking ball to literally obliterate another car full of people.
Fucking not even Doomsday did something like that. Fuck i hate this movie.
What you didn't like Terminator Superman, who I think had like 40 lines in BvS?
A movie that everyone thought that had no shot of failing. The one movie the world thought was a lock to get a billy. I wish I was around at the time of that legendary thread, if it was even half as good as the Endgame Boxoffice watch then no doubt it once in a lifetime no doubt.
With all the hate I still prefer Boston Bats over Bale. Have no idea how he went from cool and badass to what he became in JL.

I knew it was terrible when I saw batman hiding in the corner and he was clearly visible and hanging in the corner but only like half a foot off the ground. It looked so stupid.

The early fan experience at IMAXes was a surreal treat. At mine before it started a big WB rep jacked to hell and back stood in front of the theater with a pair of night vision goggles saying we better not record anything. When it was over I saw him sitting on a bench outside in an exhausted "Oh dear god" position. The other reps were trying to put on a brave face but you could they were just as dumbfounded as the rest of us.
Christ, time is going too quickly. I went to see this like three weeks after it came out at a theater that also functions as a bar/restaurant. My wife and I were the only people in attendance and that part was pretty great. The movie... was not.
I mean, we're at least past the in-denial DCEU fanboys screaming about how it's actually good but "teh Marvel bias!" and "2deep4u!"
So...progress?
