If you are gonna watch the rest of DCEU, please watch Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice Ultimate Edition and not the theatrical version. For reference, the ultimate edition is 3 hrs long and the theatrical is 2 hr 30 min but the extra 30 mins on the ultimate adds alot more.

I would highly suggest watching Superman: The Movie (1978). It is the best Superman film ever made and the love story is very nice. Also Superman II the Richard Donner cut is worth watching.

Michael Shannon (the guy that played General Zod) did such a good job in his portrayal. He revealed in interviews that he played it as if Zod was the actual hero in the film. Zod, the whole time, thought he was in the process of saving his world and Superman was standing in the way. Definitely an interesting way to play it and, once you see it from that perspective, you start to understand how that turned into a great performance.

[@joshmorales770]

Still the best villain in the entirety of the mess that is the D.C.E.U.; Zod was genetically engineered to serve the single purpose of ensuring the survival of his species. In the end, Superman stole that from him and destroyed all that Zod had lived his life to preserve and protect. Zod's loss in that moment, and Shannon's portrayal of it, was done superbly.

Unfortunately, the "warriors" he brings back turn out to be an inept troupe of Circus Bugs.

Superman being able to just fly into space has always been one of the most amazing things to me. It doesn't even make sense that he doesn't need oxygen really. Maybe there is a limit to the time he can spend in the vacuum.

[@spikeysnack]

Superman gets powers from the yellow sun. Different colored stars affect him differently. Red suns take away his powers, blue ones enhance them.

[@ponkieponkz]

@@spikeysnack I found this explanation pretty satisfactory. "Superman flies in space for fun when he first discovers he can fly. ... Therefore, it is logical that Superman bypasses the need for oxygen because he primarily metabolizes sunlight, rather than food, and that his feats would consume more energy than food stores could ever provide"

I've always enjoyed this movie, even if many did not. My favorite part is Jor El's monologue when Clark flies for the first time. Superman embodies hope and an ideal to strive towards. If you like Superman, I would 100% recommend checking out 1978 Superman. It's the template that all the big superhero movies have been based off of. It's also got a masterpiece score from John Williams. Also, it can't be repeated enough to stay far away from the Joss Whedon Justice League. Snyder Cut is the one to watch.

Amy Adams = Six Oscar Nominations. The romance between S and LL is always difficult. He is just too powerful for the usual romance chemistry mechanisms to work. In films, where you only have a short time this is often about learning to live with and accept your partners flaws & weaknesses.

[@dlweiss]

While I 100% agree that Amy Adams is a phenomenal actress, I also agree with Mary that something about how she and Cavill were directed here didn't quite work for their chemistry or their budding relationship. Compare this with the Lois/Superman scenes in the original film, and it's night and day.

@Mary Cherry: you are going to love the Zack Snyder-directed DC films! They are emotionally honest and real, not just because of the realistic element but because it portrays our actual world accurately and how the iconic DC superheroes live in it.

I won’t give spoilers about BVS or ZSJL, but I will say this; Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice is a tale of redemption, and Zack Snyder’s Justice League is a tale of legacy

This is, hands-down, my favorite DCEU movie. None of the rest carry the same gravitas. But man, Lois irked me and I love Amy Adams. I liked that they had her figure out who Clark was by being an effective journalist, but the woman was a walking disaster and had to be saved like 3 or 4 times. Seriously, she needed to be put in a room with no sharp corners because the first time Kal is busy with a natural disaster, she's going to fall off another building and die. (Plus, I didn't buy her chemistry with Cavill.) Also, Faora was the GOAT. I would kill someone to see her and Wonder-Gal fight like they did in the SMWW comic during New52 run...
