BvS All Things Batman v Superman: An Open Discussion - - - - - - - Part 188

I myself have toyed with this idea, though I will admit that I don't like "Unified Field Theories of Super Heroes" in most of my live action adaptations. What if the crashing of the Scout Ship is a key catalyst to the emergence of heroes and villains, and I mean outside of the magical ones or the ones that are Batman like, mostly normal people that wear extravagant clothing and have deep seated psychological quirks.


No, I mean the majority of the pure "Meta Humans". The Scout Ship was essentially one gigantic, space faring genetic engineering lab from a planet of alien humanoids that exactly resemble us. So I am thinking, it was filled to the brim with all manner of exotic materials the Kryptonians used in their birthing process. Things, chemicals, nano machines, strange medications, all used for the Kryptonians to engineer their perfect fetuses. That just crashed in the middle of a populated city, in what was a disaster area. That ship was probably open to the outside environment for a long time before either Superman or the government could reasonably remove it and it's contents from the scene.

So assuming Superman has this thing and brought it somewhere, he'd still need to carry it or pieces of it to wherever he is storing it. It's possible that there could be nano contaminants that are then spread over a nice chunk of the U.S. if not the globe given air currents. Let's say the result is a small amount of the world wide population now primed for a genetic deviation. Meaning Barry Allen under normal circumstances would have been fried by that lightning bolt, but after exposure to these Kryptonian contaminates he instead goes through an incredible genetic change which helps him to survive the event. So now there is a population of people out there that WILL survive some unlikely happenstance, like being in an exploding nuclear blast or getting exposed to harmful radiation, because their genetic structure has been altered due to something from the Scout Ship leaking into the environment. In a way, Superman would truly be the cause of all super heroes. A character like Max Lord wouldn't have survived say a brain tumor until he was exposed, and then he would developed telepathic control powers.

I love the idea of exploring what those organic and non-organic alien contaminants might do, the havoc they would cause. But I don't like Superman being the explanation for Flash or any other DC major hero or villain. Most have rich back stories and even epic mythos to their origins and they simply don't need Kryptonians. It kinda diminishes them in a way.

On another note, I was watching reaction videos to the BvS CC trailer and it's pretty wild to see butch buff grown men tear up, men who have wives and children practically crying as they try to explain what it means to them seeing World's Finest up on the screen together. FINALLY. And almost without fail, people scream out "Wonder Woman!" after Gal's brief appearance in the trailer. The smiles are universal. I wonder if, back in the 1930s and 40s, the creators had any idea how impactful and lasting these heroes would be across the entire globe? Pretty damn amazing.
 
There is something that is intriguing me that I haven't seen mentioned in the recent comments (I might be wrong).

How will Superman suit? Will he wear it under his regular clothes? Or are they going to use the New 52 method:

Not a fan of that, myself. I prefer a regular suit underneath his clothes.

But how will they manage this? If you compare the two pictures below, it's hard to imagine that he is wearing his suit under his regular clothes.

My guess is they'll treat it the exact same way they've always treated Batman's black eye makeup: They won't mention it.
 
What's this Maxwell Lord talk about? He rumoured for a future movie?

Super speed to change clothes?

Yeah, it doesn't look like he is wearing anything underneath. Is it possible that US gov outlaws Superman (from US?) after the senate hearing?

In that case, he might spend more time being Superman outside of US, while remaining inside as reporter Clark Kent.
 
Okay. What's the theory by the way?

It won't pan out but I thought of it this morning and thought hey I'll post it lol

Ok something I literally just thought if so its bound to be a load of shizz but what if Superman is been mind controlled St the end (hence the disgusted look at Luthor) and he fights Batman and Wonder Woman. Now what if the man controlling him works with Luthor and its Maxwell Lord played by Scoot McNairy who was injured in the Superman vs Zid battle and wants revenge? So in other words we have no idea he's a meta until the end.

Probably bollocks but it's a theory I'm throwing out there :oldrazz:

Thanks, maybe they could explain Lord's mind powers by saying Lex did experiments on certain people.

Why must they take the Dean Cain route with the slicked back hair again as Superman :argh: Cavill has the hair to pull off the comic book look completely :mad:

It's easier for the FX.

Decent theory mate but I think WB would be getting someone a bit more known if Maxwell Lord was in this. That and we'd have heard rumours about him before or during production of the film.
 
I think he should have the same hair as Clark and as Superman. :shrug: Maybe a bit more wavy from flying as Superman. That's about it though.
 
I thought it odd that when Supes came into the senate hearing room everyone turned around to see him but Mercy.

I agree which is why I think it's bollocks lol but just an idea I had :woot:
 
After the BvS latest trailer I decided to rewatch Man of Steel. BvS made me warm up a bit towards it. As a prologue for DCEU it looks pretty sweet.
 
This is a must-see if you're a fan of both the recent BvS trailer and MoS!

As far as supermans suit under his clothes. They won't mention it. Just like they didn't mention how superman shaved. They'll maybe show a shirt rip moment and that will be that, and that's fine with me. Do we really need it explained?
