Hottest Doubts and Questions about Batman V Superman
Watch out, spoilers ahead! The Dark Knight, Princess Diana of Themyscira and the Man of Steel all on one screen were an unforgettable sight, but we’re sure it’s not the last of them that we’ve seen. Zack Snyder, the movie’s director, knows how Hollywood works and left room for a continuation in Batman v Superman. So let’s see what questions might get an answer in the sequel, and which parts might have been simple plot errors.
Why wouldn’t the folks at the Wayne Financial Building evacuate on their own?

Love what you do, we know, but do you think the workers at Wayne are such fans of their jobs that they thought it better to carry on working instead of to evacuate themselves? There were malicious aliens wreaking havoc right outside the windows, but everyone decided to wait it out until the boss told them to run. What loyalty.
Why the Flash moment?

There’s a scene in which Bruce gets lost in a nightmarish vision after which he gets a quick visit from Flash as played by Ezra Miller. “Lois Lane is the key”, he tells Bruce, and: “you were right about him all along.” What is this scene supposed to mean? There’s no reference to it beforehand nor afterwards. It will probably make sense after the new Justice League film comes out, but it looks a bit out of place in Batman v Superman.
Does Batman care about the civilians at all?

A Batman movie wouldn’t be worthy of calling itself so if there was no nice chase with the Batmobile. However, the one in Batman v Superman looks a bit inappropriate. Batman is supposed to hold the civilians in high regard, yet his crazy race across the city streets leaves countless people with their cars utterly wreck. How do you call yourself a hero, Bruce?
Why was Bruce blind about the Wallace Keefe case?

At one point in the story, Wallace Keefe states to the media that the attacks left him with “nothing”. Bruce seems entirely unaware of that and dares to disagree: according to his version, his company has been covering Keefe’s needs through disability checks. Wallace ripostes by informing that he’s been sending them back. How can it be that Bruce wasn’t aware of it at all?
What’s Lex Luthor’s motivation?

Lex Luthor, Superman’s great antagonist played by Jesse Eisenberg, seems to hold a couple of surprisingly legit arguments in his hand. Superman must be destroyed because there cannot be more than one omnipotent being on one planet, and Luthor is more than comfortable being the one and only. However, what about Kryptonite? Lex is quick to find out that Kryptonite is a lethal weakness of his greatest enemy, which then renders him less than absolutely powerful… Shouldn’t Luthox have just let it go at this point?
What’s going on with Wonder Woman?

The many questions raised about Wonder Woman in this movie are probably paving the way for her new solo movie. Who’s her companion from the century-old photograph? And why would she use ATMs?
Is Superman a Kanye West or a local band member?

So what exactly is Superman’s status in this alternative universe? There are moments when he can barely make a step in any direction without a huge autograph-begging crowd about him, but then he spends a good while enjoying intimacy with Lois Lane in the middle of Metropolis and no one bats an eyelash.
Why does Aquaman want to end up onscreen?

Aquaman might not be the shrewdest superhero of them all, but wrecking a security camera while pretty much facing the lens is not the best idea, someone should have taught him that.
Why did Superman leave Zod’s ship intact?
Via: screenrant.com
Superman is not an idiot, yet he does nothing to do away with the alien waste left after Zod’s ship in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Isn’t that a bit risky, especially if you’re alien enough to know all the risks involved? There were a year and a half between Man of Steel and the current movie. Superman is more than qualified to take care of this kind of thing – isn’t it cases like that when superheroes are really needed? Didn’t pass the test.
Why lure Doomsday so close to the city?
Via: comingsoon.net
In a way, Batman explains why he does that: he wants to grab his Kryptonite spear back and he needs Doomsday in its reach to stab him. But there were so many possibilities that didn’t include luring the villain so close to the city. Why couldn’t Alfred do the same he did just a quarter earlier – use a remote to pilot the Batplane and fool Doomsday into thinking Bruce is inside, while he would get the spear back? Poor planning and a lot of unnecessary risks here.
Why no more props for Alfred?
Via: wegotthiscovered.com
There are moments that make me wonder who the real hero in the movie is. It’s Alfred thanks to whom Batman has so many high-tech gadgets, it’s thanks to him that Bruce manages to find his way in Luthor’s house. No one else but Alfred makes the right guess about where it is that Luthor holds Superman’s mother captive. Shows that you don’t need superpowers to be a superhero.
How will Superman’s future look?
Via: cinemablend.com
We’re really trying to keep this post as spoiler-free as possible although we warned you there’d be some. To keep things as vague as we can: the last scene of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has Superman in quite an open situation. We don’t really know nor can we deduce how he will fit in the Justice League when it assembles, but we’re waiting for the new movie to find out!
