A bit of extra insight on the red/blue eyes symbolism: The original batman suit eyes were supposed to be green. However, the glow was added in post (pure CG) and they had a lot of problems getting the green hues to render properly, so they made the decision to change it to blue which showed up a lot better. This led to the movies working title, Blue Harvest.

This didn't come up in the video so I thought I'd toss it here: it might be old-fashioned DC comic fan of me but I could never stand or get over the fact that Lex Luthor just *knows* both Batman and Superman's secret identities. He just HAS that information. We don't see him figure it out, we don't learn HOW he ever figured it out, the movie just all of a sudden is like "oh yeah by the way, Lex knows who both of these guys are". Which makes it feel pointless that they were ever hiding their identities in the first place?? And by not-showing us any scene(s) wherein he earns that knowledge, it does nothing to make Luthor seem actively more dangerous. They might as well just say Luthor was born with a super power where he can figure out someone's identity because that's just as hollow.

The reason they are fighting makes no sense other than the writer wants them to fight. The reason they stop fighting makes even less sense other than the writer wanted them to stop fighting. Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor was never threatening in the least in this movie. At least he should never have been a threat to Superman. The only reason he was is because Chris Terrio said he was.

Speaking of Clark not knowing who Bruce Wayne is. In both Superman the animated series and Justice League War, Superman uses his X-ray vision to look through Batman’s mask and instantly recognizes Bruce Wayne. It’s just kinda weird that Zach Snyder decided to do things this way

Because zack Snyder doesn’t use his brain when it comes to the story points of his movies. Just look at his version of justice league. You’ve got darkseid fucking just forgetting about the only planet he lost on, where he lost his most prized possessions at, where his entire main goal is. And then Snyder fumbles over this batshit excuse as to why it happened. Then you have now a second movie where a word ending threat is taking place and Martian Manhunter was just chilling like “oh I hope you guys can do it!”

Despite the fact that I love the opening sequence of Batman v Superman, they should have replaced Jack with Lucius Fox...

[@Phantom8941]

I've debated that with myself before as well and am conflicted as while Lucius would be a great pick, he is typically a holdover associate of Thomas's and around his age. With Bruce at about 45 in this that would make Lucius ancient and unlikely to still be around in a serious day-to-day managerial position. A good compromise could have been Luke Fox, but that hits on the same issue as the audience doesn't know him, then again I suppose a way could have been worked in for someone to call him Mr. Fox in addition to Bruce calling him Luke (it could actually substantially add to it as that would mean they'd have been childhood friends who grew up together); but all in all this has never really bothered me to much as it's a pretty minor nitpick.

I always say that there should’ve been a Man of Steel 2 that addresses the Metropolis stuff and Superman’s personal ethos to learn to not kill and to inspire hope. That way by the end of the movie you can establish that the citizens love Superman (maybe make the final villain a Metallo or something and superman saves the day without any destruction). Then you can totally understand Superman’s side so that the BvS conflict can be established based on a deeper understanding of the characters

[@mrcritical6751]

Issue was Zack never wanted to show the heroes as heroes, he wanted to depict them at the worst points of their lives and with their morals destroyed to set up a Injustice style story

[@R_A120]

Thats totally what they should have done, you could rework the movie and combine Lex and Batmans character into one guy, then have the wheelchair dude a more fleshed out character and eventually become metallo for the end of the fight, then have Bruce Wayne as a cameo interacting with Lex towards the end of the movie or something and set up a more fleshed out B&S movie.

[@MicoDossun]

Mr Critical well here’s my view on that. At the end of this theoretical Man of Steel 2 the world sees Superman as a god and a beacon of hope and all that. Batman’s conflict can be something like “if the people see you as perfect they’ll follow you even if you do something evil and it’s one bad turn away from fascism” which I think is still sorta in line with Batman’s line of reasoning in this movie before it becomes a pissing match of miscommunication. Cause nothing makes it less satisfying than it being a fight Lex set up than a legitimate fight of their personal morals.

[@MicoDossun]

The last part with Excalibur sums it up perfectly about Snyder's vision of superheroes movies. He is on the right track, he can implement complicated themes to mundane oversaturated superhero movies, but while trying too hard to make movies "seem" or "feel" deep, he forgot the fundamental core values of his characters. Every scene has its cool themes and easter eggs, and then some nice visuals. But in the end, when Snyder has to combine all these sophisticated mumbo jumbos together, it feels awkward, long, and tiring to watch and keep track. We weren't going to remember much by the in of the movie and to be honest, Snyder also probably didn't.

[@darrellgardner4561]

BvS had some decent ideas. But they tried to cram 5 different movies into one: Batman Vs Superman, Lex Luthor being introduced, Justice League, Doomsday/ Death of Superman. The initial idea of Lex Luthor tricking Batman and Superman into fighting is good. Lex figuring out both of their secret identities off screen before his appearance is kind of dumb. This version of Lex is awful, and they try to justify it by saying "no no.. this is lex Junior", why would I want that? Why give me a character who is in no way similar to the original, but expected to fill the same role.If you have to have the justice league tie in, just make it a post-credits scene. Doomsday should have either been Man of Steel 2, or the focus of Justice League ending in Supermans death, that way the characters who know superman could realistically be shocked by it. Not a big fan of the "this is a batman who kills", that defeats the whole purpose.. Also if they had focused more on setting up a real reason for Batman and Superman to fight, and had previous fights (like had been mentioned, where batman realizes he is no match). It just feels like they tried too hard to both set up a cinematic universe, which never works when ever someone tries too hard to force it, and catch up with marvel. I'm not saying Marvel is the only formula that can work, but it is the only one that has worked so far. You cant jump straight into the big team up movie. It is a long process, but seems to have worked out pretty well for marvel. You don't have to do a movie for every single character, but you cant have a Superman move, then a Batman/ Superman crossover (with very forced character introductions), then the big team up.

[@DivvayKhatri]

It's a storylinr and a character from the dark knight returns, a character from superman 52 and another from superman birthright (lex), a storyline called the death of superman. 2 storylines and use of 3 comics is a lot? Idk what's dumb in lex finding out the identities. I don't care about lex a lot. I thought he was new and a breath of fresh air but nothing special at all. Doomsday showing up in this movie only disturbs it cause you know who he is. It's not your fault that you know the comics, but it is your fault that you think this is I'll timed. This is not what the writers wrote. This is what happened in the universe. Do you cry the same way when something odd or different happens in mcu? As for batman, he does kills some times in tdkr but I don't care. His core is still present and he's defeated, and dealt with shit ton of stuff. It's in the dialogues and more fledged out in the ultimate edition. And he does come back in the end after Superman's sacrifice inspires him. As of jumping straight into a team up movie, jl for me is not canon cause it's shot and the Snyder cut (3.5-4 hours long) is coming. I'll judge it there and then but it is no rule to follow the marvel formula of timelines. Btw batman was introduced properly in bvs itself

[@codybarlik4524]

It’s Zack Snyder and WB trying to desperately catch up with marvel. They want to go balls to the walls with cameos and character introductions and set ups for other movies that are never going to happen. They focus on making sure they can jam all that shit in as opposed to making sure it’s well written and introduced in a coherent and meaningful way. Imo, they should’ve started the DCEU with a justice league movie as a quick intro to main players, focus on having them learn to work as a team while they fight steppenwolf. Then work on giving them their own movies that flesh them out eventually coinciding to darkseid arriving on earth and them testing the limits of their abilities and trust in one another. But instead they wanted to copy marvel but RUSH to get there

[@dylanburton4955]

@@DivvayKhatri There should have been a Man of Steel 2, a Batman solo film and a Wonder Woman solo film and then Batman V Superman. There would be more time to get to know all the characters before this crossover. The Batman solo film would have been a good way of showing how he became the more brutal version of himself The death of superman feels very unearned because we haven’t really spent much time with this version of Superman and it feels rushed to do it straight after his first solo film All those comics could have truly great live action adaptions but here it’s just so half arsed and crammed in with so much other stuff, his death could have been easily avoided too. Wonder Woman could have easily done it, an easy fix for that would be for Wonder Woman to just not be in the film or have her be knocked out by Doomsday

Credit goes to Moviebob for this but he had a great idea to improve this movie. Take out Batman and just make Ben Affleck Lex Luthor. He hates Superman because he had a ground-level view of the destruction Superman caused in Man of Steel. He spends most of the movie making thinly veiled threats and trying to get his hands on some Kryptonite. Then, at the end, he builds a bulky metal suit and he and Superman have a punch up.

You know, I think I've done something no one's ever done in researching this movie. I read Clark's obituary. Apparently, he's an award-winning journalist. It brings up so many more questions to light.

[@incredibilistic]

I know it's insanely nitpicky but does Clark have a degree in journalism? The guy goes from working on a fishing boat to bussing tables at a diner to a digger on an excavation site and finally as an award-winning journalist at the local newspaper. Oh yeah, and he doesn't recognize the richest man in town.

[@ANewShadeOfBlue]

It’s a heck of a career path, that’s for sure. I guess Lois just has that kind of pull.

[@incredibilistic]

@@ANewShadeOfBlue -- Even with her clout he'd still have to be a decent journalist to keep his job as this version of Perry doesn't seem to be the kind that suffers fools. But this exchange has me thinking: for all of Superman's powers he's not super smart. Aside from leaping tall buildings, speed of a bullet and power of a locomotive there's nothing in the Superman mythos that speaks to his ability to out-think his opponents. That moniker is usually associated with Batman, who's normally regarded as the world's greatest detective (something he fails to be in the Snyder universe) but Superman is by all accounts a man with god-like powers but not any smarter than the AverageMan. In fact it's usually Lex Luthor who outsmarts Superman on a regular basis. But maybe that's part of Superman's appeal. He's certainly not dumb but his powers, for as great as they are, don't extend to his comprehension or intellect.

[@ANewShadeOfBlue]

If you want to dive into other continuities, there are a few that also depict him as super intelligent, but the appeal for me was always that he’s basically an average small town guy who likes to help people, and he just so happens to have the power of a god. I don’t remember which incarnation it was, but in one story Clark admitted that the reason he loves journalism so much is because writing is one of the few things he doesn’t have a natural advantage in. He takes more pride in being a good reporter than being Superman because he feels the former was earned. I think that’s the reason I was disappointed by BvS. I was hoping to get more insight into Clark as a person instead of just a symbol or an allegory.
