More Batfleck and less Hopeman? Sounds good!

It's funny how this Farakhee guy thinks that less Superman is bad while Wonder Skeleton and other needless characters are fine.
The entire thing reeks of stupid and rushed.

The movie with 2 years worth of test screening.

Warners may want more Dark Knight.
By DEVIN FARACI Sep. 08, 2015


The script for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice* with which I am familiar is very heavy on Superman. It's definitely a Superman story, one that features Batman in a strong supporting role (and Wonder Woman in a smaller supporting role). That's the movie - this is a film about Superman and his impact on and place in the world.


But what if, Warner Bros execs are asking, it wasn't? What if there was more Batman in this Superman movie? That is the rumor Heroic Hollywood is hearing, that Warner Bros wants edits or reshoots to add some more Dark Knight to Zack Snyder's latest film.


Is this true? Maybe! It's hard to say at this stage of the game. There's certainly plenty of time to bring Affleck back for some reshoots, and maybe to drag Leto along for the ride. There's a belief that the DC movies are more artistically driven, but from where I'm sitting they seem to be exactly as corporate driven as any other blockbuster - it just so happens that Zack Snyder and the execs are often on the same page. That means changes could be decreed from up high, changes like "Give us more Batman in this movie."


If the decision is just to add more Batman that's easy and doable enough. But Heroic Hollywood indicates they're hearing WB wants less Superman as well, and I just don't know how they do that, based on the shooting script. Again, this is Superman's movie, and cutting him down would have to impact the story on some level. More Batman makes sense. Less Superman? I have skepticism that they can pull that off without distorting the movie terribly.

It's stuff like this that make me question the artistic integrity and competence of WB's DC studio.

Jon Bernthal: "Now eventually you do plan to have actual heroes in your superhero movie, right?" *breathes on camera*

There has been no real demonstration of artistic integrity or competence beyond those films that Nolan was behind. I would be more surprised to see any evidence to the contrary.

Jon Bernthal: "Now eventually you do plan to have actual heroes in your superhero movie, right?" *breathes on camera*

*and rubs head*

If you omit the scene where he shaves his head you might get the impression that he just frustratingly rubbed all of his hair off.

Well now we know what the "vs." means.. Superman is fighting Batman to stay in the movie.

Wow. With this much lead time and WB is looking at what has to be a near completed film and instead of saying, "Fantastic, the quality of this film, the excitement will blow people away! So glad we gave Snyder three years to really perfect this amazing story. Audiences haven't seen anything like it!"

They're instead saying, "Hmmm. Okay three years and the film's pretty much done. Ummm. What can we do here....I don't know, the story pretty much is what it is, maybe just delete like 10 minutes of Superman scenes. Any scenes, it doesn't matter. And, uh, let's just insert some additional scenes of Batman growling and beating people up."

Not encouraging news at all.

 

[jye4ever]

Marvel pretty much does the same but their movies are always in crunch time, difficult decisions being made with the clock ticking, AOU didn't come out unscathed.

WTF is WB excuse.

Like you said, movie has been done for awhile now.

This is tinkering because of greed boredom.

"Hey Zach, we know the movie has been collecting dust for 6 months now, is it too late to remove Superman from the entire movie?"
