I think it's gonna turn out that Batman's shocked reaction is because the Möbius Chair doesn't have the answer. That's more of a hope than a prediction.

That's just cruel.
We didn't get Conjuring 2 but they did do a extended look at some show on Amazon and it had one scene of a guy pumping away on his wife and then her looking in his underpants to see if he was hard again. It made for a comfortable viewing experience with my nine year old.

I think they are actually going to do it, but I like your version better.

Gross.

Some questions just don't need to be answered. There's no way they can find a satisfying "twist" or "answer" to this.

I watched. It is a mess, but a fun one. It was clear how desperate DC is trying to rush things to catch up with Marvel.

Now, Batman had great physicallity, but totally unbelievable how he was fooled by silly provocations written in checks...I mean, how the hell the world greatest detective thought that was Superman doing that? And why so whiny about the death of his parents when he is a already mature Batman?

The fight between Bat and Super was cool, better than I expected. Although it could be easily avoided if Super had seated on the ground instead of walking foward.

The whole "dream in the desert" sequence was random and unecessary as fuck, like Snyder thought "it would be cool Batman fighting in Counter-Strike Dust, so let put this on the movie".

And Lex Luthor felt so pointless and without any real focus besides trolling. I guess in the beginning he wanted the prestige of creating a weapon useful against Superman, then he forgot about that.

And we had enough Snyder in our lives already.

I bet WB are thinking long and hard about firing Snyder from Justice League considering this movie has only made $687 million in two weeks :cry:

The mad max / dystopian dream bit with batman was probably the only redeeming feature of this film. They should make that movie.

Although it doesn't make sense to have Batman walk around people in broad daylight. You really hated the movie I suppose. :lol:

I don't know if they even have the ability to fire him; he's spearheading the whole endeavor, producing all the other DC movies. They could certainly pressure him to change his approach, though. But Snyder can't be stifled.

Btw, Man of Steel is the better movie. The focus on Krytpon history was really interesting. Zod was much better than Lex.

Ah, the last shot of the final battle, with Super laying, Wonder and Bat standing was clearly distorted to look wider. Gadot is thin and slender and her legs were much thicker in that scene, Batman also looked artificially thick. Felt fake and silly.

In most circles, I don't understand people's complaints about this movie because I think they're dumb. In this thread, I literally don't understand the complaints.

The desert scene was Batman getting a vision (presumably sent to him by the Flash) of the future with an corrupted Superman under the control of Darkseid and Batman leading the resistance. Synder was using as little known literary tool called foreshadowing.
