Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice
Discussion
Ive always found Superman to be one the least interesting super characters....and he is clearly the hardest to write for.....his theoretical powers mean, as Governator has said, they always have to create jeopardy for him...and its rarely very believable. He is just too powerful. Even if you add together a lot of the marvel universe you don't get the entire power set - not sure they even have an invulnerable do they? (hmm...Hulk I guess but its hardly the same)
Its always felt to me that DC characters are like a poorly thought-out version of Marvel (I know timing wise that isn't the case). Stan Lees real genius (for me) was creating so many super people but with flaws that made them interesting and you could do something with alongside the cool abilities. DC went either ultra power or 'frankly a bit s
t' powers

A mate managed to get online when they were released a few weeks ago and bagged us seats for opening night at the BFI Imax, smack bang in the middle. Starting to get excited by it despite having some reservations. I hope it doesn't disappoint.

Yeah, that's be a fun fight. They're both boring fkers though, might need a third party to add repartee?
Iron-Man? 'Does mother know thou weareth her drapes.' had me in stitches.
There is a bat in the sun video on youtube where they do thiskers though, might need a third party to add repartee?Iron-Man? 'Does mother know thou weareth her drapes.' had me in stitches.
You'll have to search it because I can't get on youtube right now, but its there and pretty much decided by votes of people on youtube.

Agree with most of that, but as for that last sentence, don't underestimate the Marvel universe. I can name about a dozen characters that would make mincemeat of Superman, and there's probably a dozen more.Zack Snyder is enough reason to be concerned. He's a very hit and miss director. With Michael Bay you know what you're getting, whether you like it or not. The same for Scorcese and a number of other directors.
Snyder has the potential to turn up something amazing, whether it's amazingly good or amazingly bad remains to be seen
