Filed Under: Batman vs. Superman

With Superman vs/and Batman movie coming up I thought i would chime in.

I would like to start off with DCTV:


With Arrow being as popular as it is, Warner Bros. would be idiots for not bringing it to the DCCU. Whether that's using the Multi-verse or Keeping them in the same universe, they should use it. Although the Multi-verse could set them aside from marvel, I like the DCCU so lets go with that for the rest of the article. Now as we continue with Arrow, They've already set up multiple villains and heroes, I love the Deathstroke costume and they've done a great job with the huntress also. I think Ammel will do a great job on the big screen and i will continue with how to connect it to the universe in a moment.


The Flash:
I think Grant did a great job as Barry Allen. With his comedic spirit and his fanboy spirit the show looks to be awesome. Now with Superman/Batman movie not coming till 2016 i think that we could get to the mid season finale or finale of the second season of the show and the definitely the mid season of the fourth season of Arrow. Now how i would connect them to the DCCU would have at the end of season 3 of arrow and season one of The flash have a two part trans-show finale, with at the end Barry badly hurt and is with Oliver in the Arrow base, Felicity tending to Barry's injuries when all the lights go off, All the Computer screens turn white as you here "You're not alone". That would be a great way to show why the flash couldn't help in metropolis. With Barry keeping his job at the Central City Police Department, He could appear in the Superman/Batman movie but more on that soon.


Worlds Finest:
Personally, I think afflack will be a great batman. I'm gonna start with the suit

This is my favorite suit of all the ones i've seen. Also from the rumors it sounds like this is the one we are gonna get and possibly a more armored up suit as well.

Now, Ive heard other rumors that we will also be getting a new superman suit. I don't know exactly how they are gonna do that with his first suit came from krypton but if he does end up getting a new one then this is how it should look. Its classic with keeping the underwear on the inside. Maybe they can somehow have his mom make him a new suit with the underwear on the outside, and have him say "um... no, not happening" .
Now On with the A slight outline of the movie.
In the aftermath of man of steel, Lex Luther Re-Builds Metropolis, the people praise him and he points the blame to Superman. But the people see Superman as the hero that saved them from Zod. As Luthor's crew is cleaning up the destruction they find some type of alien rock, Kyrptonite, That was used to power the world engine. Luthor takes it and runs tests on it. Cuts to Gotham Where there was a robbery at Wayne tower where half the crew got away, and the other half got beat up by Batman. Barry Allen comes to investigate the scene and meets Bruce Wayne. Bruce asks how he got to Gotham so fast, He simply says that he caught the first train over but something is off to Bruce, He goes to investigate Barry when there is a Heist Almost Identical to the one At Wayne Enterprises, but this time at Lex corp. Now I'm not gonna go through every scene but Bruce goes to Metropolis, Investigates and gets into a brawl with superman a couple of times until the climax where Lex has built a suit, powered by Kryptonite and attacks Superman, Batman, And Wonder Woman. He injures Wonder woman and nearly kills superman with a kryptonite bullet, He tells batman he must choose between chasing Him or saving superman. Batman starts to go to superman as luthor goes to leave when batman puts a tracking clip on him. He looks at the wound when he realizes there is nothing he can do, when the flash comes and removes the bullet safely. Superman looks through the mask with his X-Ray vision and says " Ah, Barry Allen" he looks flustered " I--I don't know what your talking about." Superman "Don't give me that, I wrote an article on your CSI skills, your very good." Barry-"Well thanks I... crap. Well I'm not the billionare hiding under a mask, *He turns to batman*" Batman-"What are you saying?" Flash-" I followed you to the batcave, hoping to get a statement." they talk for a while then after a while they talk about coming together as a group. They build the watch tower then there is a 3 minute montage of them working together. then as they are in the watch tower you see a ship crashing towards earths. as the team arrive they look down in the smokey wreckage to see Doomsday. It cuts to black.
Now Another rumor i heard is that they are gonna have a short film after they're movies, if they go this way, it should be about AquaMan: King Of Atlantis.
Thanks for reading and look out for part 2!!

@MexicanSuperman
Why is that every article i've seen you comment on, all you do is criticize? I mean c'mon man. And I know alot of people that watch it.

I can live with that depiction of the new Superman suit we may see. But I hope he doesn't wear armor. Don't think he needs it.

@niceguyeddie yeah i went and changed it. I wasn't paying attention the first time.

I like it, but i would change the part about the clean up.
and involve Bruce Wayne in the disaster relief efforts via charity.

This lets him investigate, and he finds some kryptonite for himself.
so Batman gets his hands on kryptonite before even meeting superman, atleast when he's just barely met him.

GoldSlayer1 - 1/24/2014, 6:57 PM
And you can involve Oliver Queen in the charity work aswell, without needing to cram Green Arrow into BvS. and late introduce like a small role/cameo in JL.

I know one person who watches Arrow... I hate them.

StupidSexyFlanders - 1/24/2014, 7:14 PM
Arrow shouldn't be part of BvS because Green Arrow shouldn't make the cut of the justice league there's so many better heroes and Affleck and Cavill will never go on tv, so what's the point

Arrow is hugely popular, and rightfully so. It's the best comic related television show of all time, maybe not millions but a helluva lot of people watch it.

Marvelites bash Arrow here because they're upset that Marvel is so far incapable of making a tv show that isn't crap. I hav hope, but still fear for Daredevil.

Why change Superman's suit? The design in MOS was great...
GoldSlayer1
GoldSlayer1 - 1/24/2014, 7:22 PM
@JJ63
maybe they're adding the belt so he can carry some gadgets?
GuardianDevil
GuardianDevil - 1/24/2014, 7:26 PM
^good point, but I don't think he really needs them. Also never really thought of Supes as a gadgets guy, Batman/Green Arrow/Nightwing yeah, maybe WW with the swords n stuff. But Superman?

Anyways, it really doesn't matter. I just thought that the MOS suit was better and more updated than the beloved classic costume.

In Justice League
superman used these "tracking" watches that he gave to trusted people. (Jimmy Olson, Louis, etc) the watch could be activated and it would send a sound frequency that could only be heard by superman, this allowed him to save his friends in need.

he gave one to batman as he was working on a case and kept finding clues that pointed to an alien invasion, and eventually needed to contact superman.

its minor stuff, but i'd guess that he would also carry a cellphone?

GoldSlayer1 - 1/24/2014, 7:35 PM
@JJ63
yeah i liked the new suit aswell.

speaking of new suits, have you seen Wonder Woman's new outfit in Justice League: War? i personally think its not that bad.

I really hope they have that 3-minute montage in the actual movie! Haha. Even Rocky had a montage.

Personally I dont want to see Arrow connected to the DCCU, I love Arrow and thats why I want it separate. It would interfere too much with the show and Amell's schedule of filming the show. I'd also rather see a full fledged Ras than the one we will most likely see in Arrow. There's also the point of Deathstroke, he is probably my favorite part of Arrow, and he is my No. 2 Villain, Bennett does a great job, I'd still rather see them get somebody new for the Deathstroke movie.

TL;DR I like Arrow, but I think not connecting is best.

I think Arrow and The Flash should be kept with in it's own universe and be seperate from Batman vs Superman. I just dont invision the tv verse and the movie verse working well together on screen.

@JJ

Superman would be stupid not. Imagine if Superman lost his powers in an abandoned factory and LexCorp soldiers would swarming the place. Not only would Superman have to go ninja, but mini Krypton devices that can shock or open small PZ portals would as sure as shit come in handy lol

I hope they don't do some drastic change to the suit. I can see them making it lighter in color and saying it's because it's been bathing in the light of the yellow sun. Making the reason why it was dark in the first film because it was buried under ice for over 15 thousand years.

Millions of people do watch it, and tons more have at least heard word of mouth about how awesome it is... connect it to the DCCU and watch it get that much more popular.

I do like the idea of using the multi-verse though. Doesn't limit the possibilities on the show as much and also is a unique concept that Marvel wouldn't offer.

I think Arrow and Flash should just connect to MOS, less work for WB and it would probably cause a ratings boost for Arrow and Flash. Just connect it with this:
Oliver returns to the Quiver, beaten up after a battle with a villain (presumably Slade). He's limping and bleeding, Diggle and Felicity stand next to him. Lights go off, "You are not alone!" Zod appears on the Arrow Computer "You are not alone,", Oliver gets a text, "It's time." Sent by 'Bruce'.
Felicity: What the hell are you doing!?
Oliver: Returning a favour.
Oliver leaves, CUT TO--
Barry returns to his office in Central City, using his super-speed. He sees a Bat-shaped shadow fall across him. CREDITS.

Wouldn't have to get Ben Affleck or Henry Cavill and spend big bucks on them for a one minute cameo. Just use Zod's invasion as a way to connect.

@JorEllinator
thats awesome idea! but i think it would be better for it to be superman with barry, cause batman can't just cast a shadow like Clark can and it would make sense that he could follow barry back to his office.
Like i said in the article, i don't think they need a suit change,i loved the one in man of steel, but if they do, thats the one i want. And lastly i think that it would be a really dumb move for them not to connect the movies with arrow. I mean c'mon "Here, lets make a tv show about a lesser known hero, make it super popular, get a good looking actor, cause we know the fan girls love those guys, then we'll say, nope none of that is gonna be with those guys." yeah great logic.

Minor changes to the Super suit could be that his earth mother makes his new one as Superman may be trying to distance himself from his alien heritage... Given the fact that the only other kryptonians he's ever met were evil dictators. The new suit may be more cloth than rubber. Hell,, i might even welcome the trunks back. The new suit was cool but it lacked.... Something. I think I'm more excited to see the changes then to see the new bat suit.

While all the speculation is nice, some people get so worked up...
I simply try to enjoy comic book movies at the big screen simply for what they are. They aren't a comic book so they won't ever be perfect. They are however a way fans can rationalize years of adoration when their peers can't understand why they enjoy it. I wish Snyder and Co. the best and can’t wait to see more of the Man of Steel story arch.

I do want Arrow and Flash connected, but I only want Flash in Justice League. To me, connecting mainly means just having the characters acknowledge that Superman and the others exist. Drop some names, but that's it. But, I think they should connect this year using the Zod scene, not wait.

The only thing I would change about the Superman suit is give him a red belt, just to break up all the blue. Otherwise, leave it alone.

One thing I don't get is why everyone wants to come up with all these complicated ways for kryptonite to get here. Just say what the movies and comics always said, that parts of Krypton landed on Earth after the explosion. That's why it's called krytonite, it combines Krypton and meteorite. Just have Luthor and/or Wayne figure out when Clark landed, and look for meteorites that landed around the same time.

As for your plot, ummmmm.........no.
