so this is why dhandler hates me
in response to the idea of this film being a combination of TDKR and Death of Superman.

Jesus this again...there is zero evidence that any of that is true. Even more, if they are going to "steal from the best" why would they then completely bastardize the Doomsday plot when there are actual villains who have been created by Lex that work better than Doomsday anyways?
If the rumor is true (and I doubt it is) I think it is ridiculous and sounds terrible. It is the second worst rumor behind the "Superman Fakes His Death And Goes Into Exile" rumor.
I thought we were done with this rumor after the fake script fiasco...Faraci has no sources when it comes to WB movies. (which is why the rumor died in August FYI)
edit: Superman is not going to die. Please for the love of Zod stop propagating that rumor. You dont kill him before Justice League and you certainly dont kill him when no one has any reason to care if he dies. It would be stupid and weightless because he hasnt been around long enough for anyone to care. DOS works because Superman had been saving the world for YEARS...this Superman has done it once and half the people seem to hate him for it. If they do that dumb idea I guarantee it will fall flat and Justice League will be a disaster.
this is an illogical overreaction to the idea of Doomsday being the villain.
I think Doomsday will almost certainly be the villain here, it makes the most sense. They're not going to significantly scale back the action for this film, it's going to be bigger than Zod vs Superman. Doomsday raises the stakes.
Cavill has said he wants to see Doomsday the most. And that his favorite story is Death of Superman.
Just wait for it everyone, i really think Doomsday will be the villain. Just look at the evidence. Nothing points to Metallo.
Even the people that want Metallo should be able to recognize that the evidence points to Doomsday being the villain.
The reports about the Doomsday concept art being seen and the rumors about Lexcorp cloning Zod's body and making Doomsday were both from fairly reputable sources that have been right in the past.
If Doomsday is done well in this film, what's the problem, what's the point in b******g like d-handler?
Doomsday isn't such a great character that he deserves a ton of build up. I dont' think that's the case. He's a personality-less brute that can be done justice in the final act of this movie. Justice League can feature the Return of Superman for the first act.
I really think that's what's going to happen, it's what the evidence points towards.
I doubt dhandler will be incessantly whining once the movie comes out. They have an exellent writing team that can handle a TDKR/Death of Superman hybrid very nicely.
