It is a badass line. I'm actually glad I never saw this in theater's/ignored reviews/this thread. I enjoyed the movie.

Apparently what I saw was not what you saw in theaters. So you may all be justified after all.

It's just unreal how many REALLY good moments in movies lately have been ruined because they're in the trailers first. I get wanting to build excitement, but such a waste.

I cannot agree more. I remember seeing the trailer for the fifth Star Trek movie and thinking wow, that is going to be awesome. Too bad that every worthwhile moment in the entire movie was in that trailer.

You have a movie titled Batman Vs Superman... If that can not sell itself on those words alone, then nothing will.

I never saw the theatrical version, but the ultimate seems a lot like MoS. Good moments but almost like a fan movie.

Needs more Gal Gadot.

I watched the extended cut the other day so I dunno how the original movie was.

Just so you know where I'm coming from I actually liked Man of Steel a lot.

As for this movie, I feel lex was one of the worst comic book movie villains to date. He was on the level of the new fantastic 4 Doctor doom that suddenly wanted to annihilate the entire world with no reasoning or motivation. They never said he could control doomsday even with his dna, so why would he release a creature that would destroy superman and kill everyone else as well? It's like they tried to cross LL with the joker and it turned out horribly.

Everything else I enjoyed including the final battle and the death of superman, but damn Lex was a terrible wtf villain with no motivation and goofy as hell.

Finallly watched it...(the regular theater cut)

The did a good job of bringing Superman, Batman, and WonderWoman to life (Even though even my seven year old son said, "since when does Batman use bullets?") and the scene where all three fought Doomsday looked exactly like it should have. But....

the lex luthor character and Jesse Eisenberg's acting were both horrible.

Gal Gadot can't act, so thank goodness she's attractive.

Lois Lane is just conveniently in too many places where she shouldn't be, just to advance the plot or provide an explanation. And did I miss something? how did she know that the spear would kill Doomsday? Oh, and again, my seven year old watched the scene with her retrieving the spear and said, "Lois Lane must be an Olympic swimmer because she's been holding her breath for a long time!"

First half of the film should have been rewritten by better writers.

The nightmare scene should have been cut out altogether.

On its own...6 out of 10. Compared to most Marvel movies...4 out of 10.

Watched it last night. In some ways I thought it was great. In other ways I thought it was horrible. But Iijed it more than any Superman movie since the 1978 movie.

Lex was part of the bad. The dream in the middle was just confusing.

Gal godot is fine piece of ass but I don't know if she can carry a whole movie. Aqua man looked like he was holding his breath.

Your 7 y.o. sounds they are ahead of The Game. Awesome!!!

I had these exact same two thoughts as well. If what we saw from her is a glimpse at the entire WW movie....ooof, not sure if two hours of that would be bearable, regardless of how attractive she is.

I actually enjoyed it, but was kind of surprised at how awful Eisenberg was throughout the film.

I was not a big fan of the theatrical cut, but really liked the ultimate edition. Definitely cleared some things up that seemed like bad editing during the movie.

So much this.

That will be a problem for the movie, making it look like he belongs underwater.

Just FYI, a two-minute, forty-five second trailer for Wonder Woman will be debuting during the WB panel at Comic-Con today, which will likely be online shortly after (but no one knows for sure). The panel is from 1:30-3:30 CST today if anyone wants to follow along on Twitter.

Trailer is playing now as we speak.

I stand by my previous statement

Looks like some weird female fusion of Thor and Captain America. She's hot as Hell but incredibly wooden. I'm also getting annoyed of this trend of slow motion action scenes. I hope this is just for the trailer and not the actual movie.

watched full directors cut...really liked it from end to end


Ending is definitely better, but I liked the build of superman being invincible and batman trying to figure out how to beat him.

Doomsday was cool..can we get him vs the hulk?


and Gal Gadot...so hot always...

Saw the extended version last night, for the first time, with the wife and after Batfleck and Superman had the heart to heart moment I turned to her and mentioned this scene from Step Brothers. Holy sheet is this the greatest gif ever!!!!

Watched it last night, didn't get the hate for it. Sure it wasn't Christopher Nolan, but it was enjoyable. Had the badass fighting of MOS, with more of a plot line (although the plot still wasn't complicated). The only thing that really bothered me in the movie was Laurence Fishburne talking about how newspapers were broke and outdated in every one of his lines. We get it, newspapers suck, Morpheus.


I also wasn't sure about how Lex survived the first Doomsday explosion, but whatever. I think they missed an opportunity to say the reason he was bald was because of radiation from the blast, not because he went to prison and they shaved his head.

So anyone figure out why Wayne had his tower in Metropolis instead of Gotham? Does he ever go to Metropolis for business in the comics or animated series. Seems like all of his business ventures are handled via Wayne Tower in Gotham.

I liked the extended version a lot better than the theatrical version.

At least the dream sequence makes sense instead of just being out of place, though that's just a mess in the theatrical version, and still uneven in this one.





The world would absolutely blame/hate superman for the events that happened in MoS. I have no problem with how they portray Luthor and Batfleck hating superman as well for little motivation. IMO superman would not be very beloved in this reality.

So you didn't think Batman wanting to kill Superman because if there's a 1% chance and breaking into Lex's server just because while WW shows up for no real reason and Flash shows up in a random dream for no real reason while everyone is mad at Superman for a random foreign event where Jimmy Olsen worked for the CIA while the founder of Facebook is a maniac who wants to kill Superman and can figure out how to access Kryptonian power in a few hours and also create a supermonster that Batman and Superman come together to defeat because their mom has the same name wwhere Lois knows that a random spear can kill said monster was complicated?

Because I'd tend to disagree.

If I only had more blue stars to give this post.

I figured it wasn't Wayne Enterprise's HQ, but a branch office, or HQ of a subsidiary.

This is how I viewed it too. The tower was Wayne Financial. Conceivably, a branch or sister company to Wayne Industries.

That could very plausible. What I don't get is why did billionaire Bruce Wayne fly into Metropolis during a huge battle then try to drive to his building via a freakin flat matte black Jeep Wrangler!? That's the best car you have available?? It would have made more sense for Batman to show up. That scene still confuses me.

That was a jeep renegade
