Michael Shannon as General Zod Batman v Superman

Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice hit theaters this past weekend, and so far we’ve posted two reviews that did not speak favorably about the film. Zack Snyder‘s follow-up to Man of Steel currently has an astonishing 29% on Rotten Tomatoes, while the audience score stands at 73%. And let’s not forget that Sad Affleck meme. Looks like Snyder has successfully created yet another polarizing film where the apologists will be working all hours of the night to convince you that this is the best movie, even better than anything Marvel could come up with.

“What have you done?”

You know those combination Pizza Hut/Taco Bell fast food places where you can get a Pepperoni Lover’s® Personal Pan Pizza and a Doritos® Cheesy Gordita Crunch with a Mountain Dew Baja Blast®? Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is kind of like that, except the pizza is a soggy, overloaded sadness pie and the Cheesy Gordita Crunch is deep-fried in sweat and dread. So, your standard Taco Bell experience I guess.

Directed by Zack Snyder (Man of Steel, Watchmen), Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is both deadly serious and aggressively silly. It’s a heavy-handed treatise on post-9/11 America written on a Quesalupa wrapper; a soliloquy on sacrificing freedoms for the illusion of security, delivered by a GameStop manager between trade-ins of LEGO Batman 3.

Don’t get me wrong: A movie about the ideological divide between Batman and Superman could be compelling, but that isn’t this movie. There are no heroes in this movie, only violent psychopaths trying to one-up each other in the “right-wing nutjob” department. This isn’t a battle of ideologies; it’s a war for bragging rights. These guys aren’t fighting for justice – they’re gunning for the highest body count.

Ben Affleck in Hollywoodland

Most people are aware that Ben Affleck makes his debut as Batman this week with the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and that it’s the second time the actor has played a superhero after his appearance as Daredevil in the 2003 movie adaptation of the same name.

But what some people don’t know, or have forgotten, is that Affleck also played Superman once upon a time in 2006’s Hollywoodland. OK so it wasn’t actually Superman he was playing but actor George Reeves, who played the character in the ’50s television series The Adventures of Superman, but still!

Using shots from both movies, someone has made a short trailer for a new Batman v Superman in which Affleck plays both the title roles. This was something that needed to happen, and the internet didn’t let us down. You can check out the video below.

Justice League Header Image

Regardless of the success of Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice, Warner Bros will proceed with their DC Cinematic Universe as planned. As such, they have announced that they will begin filming Justice League Part I in April in England and Iceland. Making these sorts of announcements isn’t entirely new, it’s almost commonplace. Zack Snyder will return to directing the DC Comics ensemble film, which has yet to reveal why the heroes must unite.

However, the timing of the announcement comes into question, as rumors that test audiences aren’t responding to the film as well to Dawn of Justice as WB would have hoped. More on the story below.
