Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Snyder said that he “felt like we had to kill Superman in this movie in order for us to have been serious with the entire premise of the film.” That said, for anyone who wondered if perhaps the dirt was simply lifted by a freak tremor or gravitational quirk, Snyder made it clear that Superman is due for a resurrection. Referencing a scene in which the U.S. government tries to “help” by firing a nuke at Superman and Doomsday while they are in space, Snyder explained:


“He comes very close to death in space and the reason why we did that is because I wanted to show — and keep the idea in the viewer’s mind – that he can come pretty close to death and the sun can revive him, or he can be revived… [But] I think something more is gonna need to be done [to revive him this time]… I felt like there’s a mythological journey for Superman. There’s the birth, death, and resurrection thing. And when you bring him back, who knows what he is when he comes back.”

I think DC have some nice heroes. In terms of super heavy weights, they will not lose out to Marvel but in terms of enemies, from the comics, how many from DC are actually really strong on their own?

I mean those that can cause massive destructions, not thugs/criminals level.
I can only think of:
Darkseid, Doomsday, Brainiac.. anymore?

Superboy Prime
Mr. Mxyzptlk
Imperiex-Prime
The Anti-Monitor
Krona
Nekro
Eclipso
Trigon
Larfleeze
Parallax
Mongul
Neron

superman most of the time give chance 1 lei.

i rarely see him go all out..

his "softness" lead to many superhero/villains beating him.

It is stated before he do not dare to go full force as everything is like brittle to him.

Only time he goes full force is to kill/defeat darkseid.

What are you talking about :o Nolan batman trilogy is deep in a good way and is nothing like Batman v Superman at all, which is confusing and messy plotholes that doesnt make sense. Dont pretend this movie is like some deep thinking movies like inception leh.

- how come Superman can know when Lois Lane got danger and save her in time (eg fall off building) but he cant save Martha Kent when she got kidnapped?
- why Batman plant the tracking device on the trailer yet still destroy so much of that vehicle and risk destroying the device itself? Why cannot plant liao then stealth follow them?
- what is Lex doing with the metahuman research?
- why does Wonder Woman want to take photo from Lex Luthor, and what was she plannig to do with it? How does she know he got her photo?
- Lex Luthor detest Superman because he is an alien and he could be dangerous. Then why does he create Doomsday, who's dangerous to mankind too?
- what is Lex Luthor's plan for Doomsday if and after Doomsday kill superman?
- how come Bruce Wayne spare Superman after Superman shouted Martha? I know bruce wayne mother is also Martha, but even if thats the case why still spare him? He said to Alfred "if we even believe there is even a 1 percent chance he is our enemy, we have to take it as an absolute certainty and we have to destroy him." But because he got a mother same name as his, the 1 percent chance drop to 0 liao?
- why nobody smell the urine piss in the jar in the court?
- what is the scene of Clarke Kent and his father for? To make ppl more emotional invest in Clarke Kent?
- Lex Luthor got the kryptonite. Why he want to trick Batman to steal and attack Superman with it? Why he cant do it himself with his goons?
- why is the world engine lying at the bottom of the ocean for so long? Alien tech stuffs nobody including Superman bother to go and dug that out
- why superman stop batman from chasing those goons? He know batman is in a car chase with guns. But he cannot help bruce with those armed goons then warn batman after?
- superman got xray vision, flight, super strength, super speed. He cannot use them to go save martha kent during the one hour limit?
- how does lois lane suddenly know the spear is needed to kill doomsday?

There are many more.

Did I mention anywhere BvS was "deep thinking"? Where? Quote me on that. I did mention non-Oscar-worthy and that I also like Nolanverse Batman. If you're going to nitpick on the blockbuster of the month you can easily discover plot holes on the internet, I can do the same the whole day with almost any movie. A lot of people don't understand the DC universe but would like to append that fact to their preference coz it "confuses" them. I'd say alot of things Snyder did right like the introduction of Batfleck, who is seen as more brutal. Other things like the tone/atmosphere/action alluded earlier he got right that make it to my list I find more compelling than dislike grievances (pacing/editing) enough to warrant a second viewing. Is the story all that important? Many ppl criticize WW for just being there and unnecessary but how many understood the concept of Trinity that started the JL? This is one area I credit DC more for trying than usually playing it safe like Marvel given the problems are inherent when you try to cramp too much information esp for a movie that's serving as a launchpad for JL and its accompanying hero movies. :s13:

Tiagong sinkie can relate to this as it ish a sinkie guy trait to once have wifu ish no more parent. :(

That why many cases of sinkie sons dumping their parents cause their wifu no like.

the show is so bad.....it has to use doomsday story arch to "shock fans" that superman died...but people familiar will know the ending will be superman died

maybe chris nolan will take over the directing responsibility since batman will be the main figure and that superman is no more

waiting for the evil superman story arch (or alternative superman) to materialize

but it seems there is no superman movie in planning now......

Lots of fans say they setting up Injustice arc due to certain status of the Superheroes right now after the movie...

I arm-chio when someone mentioned DC don't have enuff interesting/powerful villains that caused massive destructions. So mani god-like villains that are more powerful than superman.

Dun understand why fans need to be so pro Marvel and undermine DC. Juz becoz majority of the public knows Marvel better, doesn't meant DC cmi.

If I want to nitpick story and plotholes of any movies, I can go on to list. Even marvel movies have some negative stuffs to talk abt.

Why cannot enjoy both Marvel and DC movies?

Batman should have bedded the wonderful woman to create a triangular trouble for superman to match his underwear... only then can box office draw in the crowds, for such a wonderful woman is wasted....

Cos the DC fans proclaiming that those who don't like the movie don't understand it ma, like the movie got no fault and it's the viewer fault for not understanding.

Haha, are you sure that's nitpick though. If say minor plotholes ok lah, but i dont think you can seriously say these plotholes can sweep under carpet. Since they concern the characters' primary motives. ok lah, so we agree Wonder Woman is just there not for plot, is because just so they can unite the trinity on screen only. :o style over substance loh. Just switch off brain during the plot and just focus on the action scenes and trinity scenes can liao :o if want story that make sense go watch nolan batman trilogy better

They cant even tell a proper story now. still wanna care what approach they should take for their movies meh.
