I feel like the spectacle alone of BvS will carry it through a good 2-3 entertaining viewings. Hopefully the story and characters can sustain it even longer.

What if they are on the League Watchtower staring at the sun rise? 
Batman will probably say something like, I had this built. Just in case.

I'm going to be devastated, if this movie isn't awesome. I'm preparing myself for the reality that it could go either way, but it's just, as a DC fan, I have so much hope for these movies. I loved almost all of the Marvel films, but I didn't grow up with that universe like I did with DC's, and I want "that." I still liked Man of Steel, and I'll defend it when the time comes, but it was a shaky start, and I'm hoping that BvS redefines how we think of Man of Steel, rather than being defined by it.
Apparenly most people thought The First Avenger was mediocre or boring and now people love Cap after TWS so the same could happen with DC. They just need a kickass movie to bring everyone on board.

Wha-? No way. If BvS does indeed suck, we could end up crashing the board.
It would be a different kind of suck than Genissyss because we know that's gonna suck. On the other hand, we're still holding out hope - no matter how faint - for Hopeman.

I don't think I could possibly be more disappointed with this film than I was with Man of Steel. If we get Man of Steel 2.0, then I would have been prepared. Chances are, I will like it more than that, since the writer being brought on is good, and Batman can work in a movie with that mood. So, my criticisms are likely to be muted if this ends up blowing, as it may.Wha-? No way. If BvS does indeed suck, we could end up crashing the board.

I like TFA over WS. 
Star Spangled Man number plus Indiana Jones-esque battling of HYDRA agents in Red Skull's bomber at the end puts TFA way above mediocre. And that's not even counting the great job Evans did at making Skinny Steve such an endearing guy in the first half of the movie.

Even his shield wielding was good for a starter. I definitely tolerate his relationship to Peggy over any other relationship in the MCU.

The 2011 Cap film was excellent - I loved it after the first watch.
What's with some of these nerds around here?

My wife is far from a comic nerd, and thought the first Cap movie was mundane, and that the character was boring and uninteresting in that movie.

I'm somewhere in between. I agree with both views. I really liked it as a whole, but the whole second half was super dull. And plot less. Love the design, most of the acting, the wimp to superman was the most successful part of the film, but it had a lot of charm, which is why I excuse it's shortcomings.
From the moment I walked out of the theater, I thought that it did all the things it was supposed to, and none of it was really done badly. But on the other hand, very little felt great. I thought Red Skull was awesome. And of course, it was nice finally having a good live action Captain America. But it didn't "wow" me on the whole. Felt very by the numbers somehow. I was actually more impressed with Thor, though maybe that had to do with the fact that it wasn't primarily an origin story like First Avenger was.

I love Cap, but the TFA wasn't very good IMHO. I liked the origin part, but the second part made it look like Hitler and the Nazis were a screen smoke and not the real threat. Tell that to the vets!
