I honestly had never heard of her, so I IMDB'd her and I have literally never seen anything she's been in. No clue who she is, though I give her props for voice-acting Barbara Gordon.

Collateral damage from movie one is not a good enough reason.
I'm glad a movie finally addressee the issue but man...

Again, this would be a valid explanation if they took the time to develop the theme.
The only time this movie slowed down and had a chance at digging into the theme of man trying to control God resulted in a big explosion and everyone dying before superman even said a word

I'm late but at first I hated Jesse Eisenberg's portrayal of Lex Luthor then I heard that he wasn't even playing the Llex Luthor we know. It's Lex Luthors son. Do people still feel disappointed even if they know that's the son?
If this would've been Lex Luthor I definitely would've wanted Michael Rosenbaum to play him.

"if there is even a 1% chance we have to treat it as an absolute certainty"
if that passes for a legitimate reason for you then good for you. I think it's terrible writing that doesnt make much sense.
and two movies from two iconic franchises about their two headlining heros fighting eachother are coming out in the span of 2 months. of course the two movies are going to be compared. but regardless of that, anything brought up as an example of why something can be better is relevant, as it is an example of how it is possible to tell a good story with many of the same elements. "that's irrelevant" is just lazy talk for people who are not capable of articulating coherent counterpoints.
He said he fought crime in Gotham for 20 years. He's seen good guys go bad. This version of grumpy Bat has clearly had it with people. Superman might be good now but what happens later? This is a guy with enough power to destroy the world or enslave mankind if he wanted to. This isn't some normal criminal or a corrupt politician. That seems like a legit reason to me. Why would you wait until he goes 100% evil when the risk is that large?
He flew across the world and killed some dude for Lois Lane. What would he do if he couldn't save her? Or if he keeps feeling the pressure to be perfect after 10-15 years and snaps? Batman prepped for 2 years and made his move when he was ready.

People keep saying he killed people, but who do we actually see get killed? I presume anyone who was in the car that he turned into a giant ball-n-chain during the Batmobile chase scene, but the dude he knifed took it in the shoulder, not the heart, right? I guess the Russian's death is on him for knocking the hose off the gas tank? But I feel that's the kind of thing Batman does. He doesn't kill you himself, but if you're dunb enough to put yourself in a situation where you're going to kill people and your plan backfires and kills yourself, he ain't going out of his way to save you, especially if there are innocents that he can save (MARTHA!) instead.

He destroyed several Carl's with people and shot up the perimeter of the building when saving Martha.

He Swiss cheesed the entire troop of bad guys outside the building when saving supermans mom
His entire story arc was about plotting to kill superman who is widely regarded as a hero. Like not create a solution to stop superman if he turns evil but to flat out hunt him down and kill him while he's still a good guy.

Went through the last few pages lot of takes hot warm and cold
After sleeping on it, I did overall enjoy it.
-Affleck was great, very smooth as Bruce. The more brutal TDK batman was fun to watch. But I swear I remember him using guns in the comic
-Irons as the snappier Alfred was a welcome surprise. -The idea of superman questioning his purpose on earth was good but like others said it literally blew up without explanation.
-hated Luthor, no idea what he was doing aside trying to put superman vs batman for whatever reason "destroy the gods". Essentially a bootleg Joker, meh
-I thought it was all over the place in terms of story and continuity
-those dreams/flashbacks/flash forwards threw me off every time
-some plot holes like superman not straight up yelling "BRO HE HAS MY MOM!" etc but those have been covered ad nauseum here already
it wasn't terrible, a little messy at times but I liked it
Me and my friends watched it in IMAX, when we were walking out there was a big crowd/line for the next showing and I immediately thought of the Simpsons episode where Homer and Marge walk out of RotJ and homer says out loud that DV was Luke's father and saying
but I'm not a scumbag

Then why doesn't he try to kill Wonder Woman? What if she goes evil in the future? It's better to kill her now right?"if there is even a 1% chance we have to treat it as an absolute certainty"

Basically kill anyone who is powerful enough to cause mass destruction even if they have no intentions on causing mass distraction. Don't even bother having a conversation with this person to get a better understanding of who he is. HE MUST DIE NOW!!!1!

Batman clearly had a personal, selfish issue with Superman. He used the 1% thing as his reasoning to Alfred, but you have to know its personal based on the opening sequence. That's what that set up.

Don't think they ever showed WW's power prior to the Doomsday fight, did they? Just that she was around in 1918 fighting for the allies, right? So Bats wouldn't think she was nearly as dangerous as Supes at that point.

I know they wanted to make that connection but seriously, who refers to their mom by their first name.

Remember the scene where Batfleck visits his parents' graves (and sees the Parademon)? They show Martha Wayne's name, but his dad's is blurred out.

Even Snyder has said Batman is a manslaughterer. That implies ppl died due to his actions i.e. they were killed.

He knew Bats was Bruce Wayne, and being the world's most famous orphan of murdered parents Supes would also know the name "Martha" would mean a lot to him. Also, if he said "my mom" Bats might be like "Aw hell no... there's more of you kryptonians here???"

To be sure he meant HIS mom?
I'll admit I pulled a weebay gif in the theater when I realized they had the same name Another thing that bugged me was that apparently Gotham and Metropolis are across a bay from each other?

she may not be superman but she's still a fine as hell 134 year old, his detective senses should have been saying "HOW SWAY?"
at the end of the day, no matter how you want to rationalise it, it totally makes sense for batman to create weapons that can kill superman but it makes no sense at all for him to actively hunt superman down and try to murder him without even putting any effort into trying to understand him
