Well, superhero movies did have a nice renaissance period. But all good things come to an end and this signals the end of days.

I'm confused, is Ben Affleck playing some sort of Super Batman?

This tweet made me lol:

"In the Ben Affleck version, Batman's parents kill themselves."

This one from @TheBatman:

"Ben Affleck officially cast as Batman in the Man of Steel sequel. For the first time in history, I kind of want Superman to win."

The premise of the movie is that Batman is retired, Gotham is overrun again and he saves the city. The US Govt doesn't like Batman showing him up after they agreed he would retire, so they send Superman to Gotham to stop him, battle ensues.

I haven't read any of the comic books, but that premise seems so completely out-of-character for Superman (at least as I know him thru the movies). Besides the idea of Superman being manipulated by the govt...going to stop a good guy? I mean, Iron Man is much more plausible.

Hey, that's where I draw the line. A marvel character in a DC comic? No fucking way. :)

Sounds pretty much like the Frank Miller comic, The Dark Knight Returns. There Superman was pretty much a puppet of the U.S. Government.
So, I wonder if Batman will set off a nuke, get in a big suit, and beat Superman to a pulp?
I don't like this at all, but we'll see how it goes.

Written by someone who's never read a comic book in his life, but why do Batman and Superman apparently hate and fight each other. I heard they were doing this movie and just assumed they'd be teaming up Avengers style. Don't they have the same goals to fight crime? I'm confused.

I love guys who say...uh I don't read comic books but...

Yeah this is one of those Bizzaro World type scenarios where in the end it was a plan all along by Batman and Superman to team up. Justice League prelude just like Avengers was to Iron Man.
