I wonder if it's just the slum areas of Gotham that Detroit is getting used for. They don't even need to build sets. It's all ready for them.

I think most of the reasons from chosing detroit are for filming those parts. But I hope they shoot the beautiful parts of Detroit

The way that I think about it, Detroit has a more fitting Skyline for Gotham, which is why I prefer it over Chicago's "Metropolis-esque" skyline. All cities have their rough slums and nice burbs, but I like Detroit's ratio for Gotham.

I can bet that this movie will be called Batman vs Superman though I would just prefer DC's World's Finest I know that it's their first time meeting, not nessesarly a team up and more of a conflict but The Avengers was a conflict for alot of it and it wasn't called Iron Man vs Thor vs Hulk vs Captain America.

When Batman and Superman team up they are not known by the name World's Finest. It's the name of the comic book.

While I won't claim to know what the film will be called, I do believe that Batman vs Superman is simply a working title, if that. It's a simple way for the filmmakers to refer to this as-yet-untitled film when describing it.

As a comic book fan I can see what people want it to be called World's Finest. As a filmmaker I can see why they are reluctant to use World's Finest.

If MOS had been titled "Superman", then Superman vs. Batman makes sense for a follow up film. But since WB/DC followed in the footsteps of TDK by titling the film Man of Steel (which along with The Dark Knight are words that have long been used to describe the characters), World's Finest is a fitting title. It's also a more fitting title for a film that has the potential to be a classic, compared to BvS which sounds more like a stunt or event title.

Plenty of films have been shot in detriot, the city can be made to look great or bad. Plus with the compositing approach used in Begins, anything is possible.
The island was shot in Detriot, TF4 as well. I personally hope the place is shot to look like a horrible slum, I remember having just read batman year one I went into begins ready for a the broken city to look like Robocop...instead, it was less show and more tell from nolan at the time.

I really don't want a colon in the title. Beyond cheesy. That's one thing I hope DC stays away from for as long as possible.

A colon is "beyond cheesy"? I don't think you know what cheesy is.

Because something like Man of Steel: World's Finest, or World's Finest: Batman vs. Superman...both sound pretty lame to me.

If we get a main poster that isn't just their symbols on top of one another, than WB failed.
You don't need some crappy photoshop of the heroes standing next to each other in a crammed space (ala Avengers, MOS, F&F...). Let's go back to the greatness of the '89 one-sheet.

World's Finest is a silly name. I don't see the general public warming up to that. Even if you had a very public campaign informing people why it has such an odd name.
