BvS BvS villains... How many and which one(s)?

[BatmanVSuperman]

Doomsday should be saved for a Death of Superman storyline. Darkseid should be in JL film. This leaves us with Brainiac and Metallo to go along with Lex (who is confirmed).

 

[Rorschach2012]

It should be Metallo... I mean fans on all superman related fansites have been suggesting Metallo/Brainiac/Lex film for years. It's hard for them to ignore what most people consider a good villain for live action.

i think Lex/Brainiac or Lex/Metallo makes more sense than Lex/Brainiac/Metallo. i would love to see both Brainiac and Metallo tho, so if they can make those three villains work well together, i'm all for it.

 

[Rorschach2012]

Doomsday is too powerful for this. maybe for the JL? I'd say Parasite will be pretty effective for this movie. or Brainiac unleashing Doomsday for JL.

Doomsday is as powerful as the story requires. Doomsday can easily work in this film, maybe BvS ends with Superman and Doomsday killing each other?

Elmayimbe has said he thinks Doomsday is the villain in this. he's not always right, but he nailed the Charlie Cox/Daredevil story the other day, so maybe he's right about Doomsday?

If we're to trust Elmayimbe, Doomsday is the villain and Nightwing is in this. That sounds awesome to me

 

[Rowsdower!]

I think Planet Hulk is the villain.

 

[InJustice]

I think Planet Hulk is the villain.

I like the way you think.

 

[bluerayer]

I think Planet Hulk is the villain.

What about Hulk Hogan brother!

Its too soon to Doomsday IMO. could be the cliffhanger villain that get the union of the team or maybe set in the JL with Brainiac leaving him on earth. There are too many possibilities. But for BvS I'd go with Lex-Parasite/Metallo. and the cliffhanger Doomsday/Brainiac or Brainiac.

lex and deathstroke.

cheetah, giganta, artemis under the guise of mercy graves (that could be another reason for WW to make an appearance, the same way that i think killer croc's appearance could be another reason for bats to go to metropolis, though that may be to Amazing spider-man for some,) metallo, parasite, killer croc, zod's zombie or zodbie as an amalgam of bizarro/doomsday/H'el could work if they're going with the metahuman experiment plot device.

I'm not saying use all of them, that's overkill. lex should be the main antagonist, the other ones should be his proxies. there should be a baddie for batman to fight, some muscle for superman to fight and someone else for wonder woman to fight.

if i had a say

Lex
Deathstroke
BiZODro
Artemis (or cheetah)under the guise of mercy graves.

 

[BatmanVSuperman]

I like the idea of a live action version of this with WW fighting Metallo instead of just Superman. That would be cool! A skirt would look better though

 

[godisawesome]

I'm figuring that with Cyborg confirmed for at least some kind of appearance, Metallo's a shoe-in. Two cyborgs in one film helps clean up the usual mess this could have been.

 

[Verick808]

But we might not even see him as cyborg.

 

[ЯɘvlveR]

speaking of biZODro

 

[Steamteck]

Lex, Brainiac then Darkseid as the sinister manipulator behind it all but a full reveal on him.

 

[Steamteck]

I'd be happy with just Lex and a battalion of Darkseid's lieutenants to foreshadow Darkseid's arrival in JL (if indeed Darkseid will appear in JL). Not sure if we need specific villains associated with each hero.

That's what I would like also.

 

[The Villain]

Metallo as the main lethal threat of movie with Lex as behind the scenes paymaster would do.

Mad Hatter that would be interesting and possible but only if he gets to use his techno brilliant mind to create havok for the citizens etc.

 

[John-An]

Could you imagine if instead of Metallo because they maybe wont use kryptonite they could use....
Parasite

and/or Atomic Skull Joseph Martin or combining the two as the New 52 did with Albert Michaels.

What if the three of them are all experiments or accidents from ARGUS, LexCorp and StarLabs.
What if they put two of these to challenge the DC trinity?

 

[storyteller]

If you have Brainiac I feel you don't need another baddie because he can make all his goons.

Doomsday: I really don't have a hard on for the death of Superman story that others do. It works in the comics but not in the movies unless they really attempt to not have Supes in there.

I think the JLU did it best. Just have Doomsday be a weapon of Cadmus. It before more a battle of morals then life and death.

Just Lex simply doesn't work right now because Lex as been run down due to the Donner verse. He needs to reearn his movie cred.

 

[DOBSON10]

It's hard for me to say what villains I would like to see, because we don't know how big of a role each already casted character will have. But I do know that I don't think Lex can be a standalone villain, not with Eisenburg being Lex. It's just incredibly hard for me to see Eisenburg pulling this role off. So I definitely think they should add another villain, to take some of that pressure off.

It's also hard for me to say which villains I want to see, without knowing how many movies this franchise will put out. For example, how many Justice League movies will we see? Will there be a Batman solo movie(s)? Etc. Because I'd like to see them hold off on Darkseid and Doomsday, I think one of them should be the final villain of the Justice League (my choice being Doomsday for the final villain). At some point I would like to see The Joker, but that might be too soon for this movie, particularly if we get more than one Justice League movie and at least one Batman solo film.

So for now my choice would probably be Lex and Metallo. If they have to add a 3rd I would go with Brainiac, because again, I'd like to see them hold off on Doomsday, Darkseid and The Joker. But if we are only getting 2-3 movies, then they should just jump into one of those 3 with Lex now.

Hard to say without having a layout. I'd like to see a bunch of movies, (2 or 3 JLA movies, at least 1 Batman movie, and 1 solo each for Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman and Wonder Woman).

 

[Pants Under Underpants]

Having Lex use recovered kryptonian tech is too easy and predictable. Having brainiac as a villain is WAY too similar to MOS' Zod.
If I could have my dream villain it would be Parasite. Imagine Batman following Parasite and realizing he's headed for Superman (the ultimate energy source) and trying to stop it. Parasite looks human, but Bruce knows his identity. Lex will be controlling Parasite and supplying him fake ID and maybe even prosthetics to stay hidden. Batman will warn Superman to stay away, but of course Superman can't do that. He tries to help, but ends up giving Parasite his strength, and maybe even his powers. WW will have to join the fight to take super, mutated, purple Parasite down. The movie ends with Braniac or Darkseid approaching an enraged Lex for a partnership. Cue Justice League. Mark my words.
Since Lex being good is popular in the comics right now, Lex will redeem himself at the very end of JL.
Doomsday will be the villain for JL2, then Metallo for a solo Supes flick after he returns from the dead.

 

[John-An]

I don't see Brainiac in BvS, but in JL seems likely. And also Brainiac is nothing similar to Zod. They are really different and Brainiac could set Doomsday from the PZ (if he's there) if he wants of course depending on his purporse on the movie.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I think either just Lex, or he uses Metallo

 

[Pants Under Underpants]

It may not seem like Braniac and Zod are similar, but look at it this way: Zod came to repurpose (read: destroy) earth, just like Brainiac would go. Zod's ship had Biotech tentacles like something you'd expect Braniac to have. Command keys and ship tech are similar, too. The only way Braniac would work this soon is by reimagining his origins and removing the kryptonian ties.

 

[Pants Under Underpants]

Nobody wants to see just Lex again. I'm tired of seeing him over and over. He needs to be behind the scenes. I like Metallo, but he's too predictable. They picked an old movie villain with Zod, so I have a feeling that they will explore one of his lesser-known villains. Metallo could be there along with Parasite or someone else, since we have three heroes.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I think he needs to use his armor
Contingency plan after the alien escapade

 

[Rorschach2012]

Man i would really love to see Snyder's take on Doomsday...

This is going to be one of the biggest event films OF ALL TIME..
Are Metallo and Lex enough of a threat?
