1. Snyder will find Batman's code of not killing a weakness whereas Nolan saw it as a virtue.

2. There won't be any internal angst or guilt from Superman for the massacre of hundreds of thousands of people in MoS. Snyder avoids genuine moral conflict (because he doesn't understand it).

3. Snyder will have Batman, perhaps with the help of a kryptonite ring, duke it out with Superman for 40 minutes… It will be boring, but Snyder thinks that's all the audience will want in a Bat/Supes movie.

4. People will likely die as a direct result of either Batman or Superman's actions. Neither will address it.

5. Teenagers will quickly forget the brilliance of Nolan's Batman films and declare this to be the best Batman on screen because, hey… at least here he's a "badass" in it and not crying or whining about Rachel.

6. Batman's costume will look fantastic. Despite lacking the basics in simple drama and storytelling, Snyder knows how to make cool threads.

Remember, Less is More.

If you read Grant Morrison's run on Justice League, you'll know that he was the most dangerous member in it. Every story arc shows how bad ass he can be, to a point even Wonder Woman saw him as a more attractive potential mate than Supe. Let's see what the future holds.

For all the Snyder/MoS haters, what would u've preferred to see in that movie?

Want to build the excitement and potential conflict? Introduce the new Batman in his own movie or TEASE him at the end of the sequel. Let audiences become familiar with him first. After a decade of Nolan's trilogy that IS Batman and a radically different take on the character from out of nowhere could work against the movie.

Marvel took their time building up to an Avengers movie, WB obviously didn't learn anything fom them. What they should have announced was the MoS sequel and a re-boot of the Batman franchise (or continuation with Joseph Gordon Hewitt leading into a meeting between Superman and Batman).

And face it, WB will be shadowed by comparisons to Marvel's well paced approach to bringing the Avengers and a half dozen Marvel characters to the screen.

Embarrassing someone makes such a terrible, awful plot hole filled movie like this and calls it a success.

Go back to making mediocre; nothing special movies like Sucker Punch, I figured this tool would ruin Superman.

Either drop the next film, or expect one boycott of any movie you touch from now on.

I'm an old-school comic book fan, so I was a little unsure of the use of the newer Superman suit. It's a bit nit-picky (and admittedly embarrassing), but I'm just used to the classic "underwear on the outside" look, but I understand how modern audiences think it's outdated and cheesy, and Fanboys would probably ask me, "Why are you checkin' out Superman's JUNK anyway?"

With all that said, I'd love to see more Batman on the big screen, but only if Warner Bros. can find a creative team that is just as thoughtful, authentic, and dedicated as Nolan and Goyer were with their Batman trilogy. I think another, better MOS should be attempted before Batman is re-introduced to the big screen. And I agree with a few other commenters about Marvel's approach to "Avengers" being the way to go. We all want to see a Justice League film become a reality, but failing to make quality movies leading up to it will kill the excitement.

All the passionate criticism from fans is both encouraging AND disturbing. What's with all the hate? I'm sure Snyder didn't INTEND to make a disappointing movie.

Peace.
