The problem with making your hero so incredibly powerful (especially the older comics where he could push planets around and stuff like that) is that it becomes very difficult to come up with situations/opponents that can pose a believable threat to someone so ungodly powerful. Kryptonite was a handy/convenient way to do just that.

Something somewhat similar to the DKR fight, just not as malicious or deadly. Lots of tactical misdirection, Batman making Superman follow a path that BATMAN wants him to follow without Superman even realizing it. Great way to show off Batman's intelligence and how formidable he is. |

The thing with the atmosphere – I’ve been thinking. Even though he’s under a different atmosphere, why would the solar radiation he’s been soaking up over his life, and has stored in his person, not be able to be used? Meaning once it’s all spent then he’s truly powerless.

So while he will be quite invulnerable I believe heavy caliber weaponry will hurt him. A Batman with explosive batarangs and stuff like that could prove to be more damaging than we may think.

Little did he know, though, that Batman had planted a tracer on Clark's cape and tracked him down to Clark's apartment. Evening the score. I don't want Superman to be a punching bag, but Batman should be one step ahead of Superman nearly all the time. Nearly. |

i'm actually curious to find out on how well known Batman is to the public considering that he's supposed to be a veteran by now within the world that MOS established.
In some ways, based on what I saw in MOS, I could buy that Batman would exist somewhere in that world, and yet in the same time, I still have a hard time believing it.lol Well, at least we know that this Batman thinks beyond Gotham's borders since Nolan's Batman was only concerned with Gotham's safety, and not so much the entire world. And I'm hoping that if we don't have another kryptonian like being for a villain (bizzaro) in this film, then it'll allow Snyder to use more practical effects in creating some of the action scenes. |

I don't see why the world at large would give a damn about Batman. More often than not, he limits his activities to Gotham. As long as no one has tried to blow up the city or anything, I don't think it'd be hard to believe that no one knows he exists.

True, though you'd think that if we go by the "realism" that they're trying to apply in terms of how the world would react to these fantastical events, that he'd be somewhat of famous..or infamous.....I mean, it's not everyday where you hear of a guy that goes out dressed as a bat and taking down crime within a given city.

I like to think that people outside of police and criminals that have delt with him believe The Batman is an urban legend.

I mean, short of Commissioner Gordon, the police(who'd want to keep him very, very secret) and the criminal underworld of Gotham, nobody would really have any occasion to run into him. The tabloids and some newspapers report on a big time drug lord being beaten to hell by a "giant bat." Most people just assume he got too high and threw himself off a building. That kinda thing. |

Now that I think about it, I could buy that people are aware of his existence. However, I don't think anyone who doesn't live in Gotham would actually give a crap about him, especially now that Superman is a thing. Quote:

Honestly, the way that I've seen both Superman and Batman...they're the opposite sides of the same coin. What one hero doesn't have, the other hero does, and vice versa. In some ways, they represent the balance of what a hero should really be like. |

One thing I realized that's pretty funny...this movie is shooting before they've even announced the title.
