@M Rod I think the villian should have been chosen to highlight the philosophical differences between the characters. Have them working together and even have a brief argument with Batman calling SuperMan naive. Maybe SuperMan says Batman is barely better than the criminals he stops. I think Bizarro could have been a good choice. Go with a sympathetic villian. sympathetic villian. In the finale SuperMan helps Bizarro find his own SuperMan within. Find his inner goodness. And when Batman witnesses that he is inspired to be more like he used to be and not so brutal. Still brutal and dark though. Just a little less. Like that is how Batman realizes Superman's potential to help humanity.
