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.

Yeah but if it doesn't immediately advance the plot then it is unnecessary so cut that shit out

Well it allowed the audience to see Batman's fear of a out of control Superman and why he felt he needed to put Supes down.

I think mostly it was about the unintended consequences of our actions and how you can't let guilt of those consequences paralyze you into inaction but you need to learn from them.

Yes, and I think it's also an interesting counterpoint to Batman's visions. The mortal man has visions of doom at the hands of a god, while the god has visions of quiet humanity.

What you didn't understand?

I don't know, I think you were accusing Snyder of artificial leg-thickening or something

I don't agree with that.

But man do I tend to hate visions/dreams in films. There's usually a better way. But I'll wait to see this before I'm too hard on how it's used in this movie. Every once in a while they work well enough that I can let them go.
