But I thought it was pretty clear that I was fessin' up to being a biased raving Marvel fanboy there. Objectively speaking, DC is fine; I just got into Marvel first, in the same way that I got into Playstation instead of XBox

Seriously though I forgot how awesome that short was. I remember seeing it back when it was originally on TV.

That can't be true right? Like, that seems so not possible and easily checkable that I'm going to go look that up right now...

Lara (née Lara Lor-Van) is a fictional character who appears in Superman comics published by DC Comics. Lara is the biological mother of Superman, and the wife of scientist Jor-El. Lara Lor-Van is Lara's full maiden name, as "Lor-Van" is the name of Lara's father.[1][2] Most depictions of Kryptonian culture show that Kryptonian women use their father's full name as their last names before marriage. After marriage, they usually are known simply by their first names, though various versions show they use their husband's full name or last name as their married last name.[3][4]

Martha Wayne (née Martha Kane)[2] is a fictional character of the Batman series of comic books, published by DC Comics. She is Bruce Wayne's mother and Dr. Thomas Wayne's wife. When she and her husband are murdered during a holdup, her son swears to avenge their deaths by fighting crime and fulfills this as Batman.[3]

That's what I thought. How does something like this go so wrong?

EDIT: Or did they mean Martha Kent? Because I actually never noticed that, but it is still silly.

Wrong mom, Tev.

e- aaannnd your edit makes my post obsolete. Screw it, I'm leaving it.

It's mamma Kent. As some point out, this COULD have been an interesting plot point, but to me it just seems so contradictory to the way Batman acts towards Supes for the rest of the movie. And it doesn't just lead to Batman showing mercy; he is legitimately dedicated to Superman from that point onwards in the film.

This movie was such a waste of money that I nearly walked out in the first 30 minutes to demand my money back. (My wife made me stay).

As I have expressed elsewhere, see a different movie. See no movie. Huff the crusty air from a jar of fecal matter in a misguided attempt to get high, and you'll have a better time than you will watching this movie.

I was hoping for a garbage B movie, and what I got was a reminder why Snyder shouldn't be making movies.

Edit: The only positive things in the entire movie were Wonder Woman, Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman Cameos.

I felt those just dragged the whole thing out. Every time the perspective switched to Wonder Woman I just wanted to scream "GET ON WITH IT". I hate how modern movies are so obsessed with setting up sequels like, a year before they happen.

edit: I suppose I would be interested in seeing a standalone Cyborg movie, however, if its in the right hands and really is standalone.

Honestly I'm so starved for quality Wonder Woman content that it was the real reason my wife and I went to the movie. What we got of Ms. Prince gives me some hope for that at least.

And hopefully Snyder will spontaneously combust from karmic overload of awful movies and someone else will write and direct a Wonder Woman movie.

He's a producer. I think that'll make this okay.

But honestly if Jay Mewes wrote Batman v Superman he would have made something worth the $12 ticket price. Or Matt Damon. Or Ben Affleck.

If Kevin Smith did a 72 hour writing challenge to write a batman v superman movie script it would have been better than this.
