New BATMAN V SUPERMAN Scene Details Explain Superman Statue + More LexCorp Set Photos

Looks like today's gonna be another big DC news day! I wonder will Lex or Bruce be partly behind putting up the statue?

Que the people saying he doesn't deserve a statue after he single-handedly saved the entire planet.

I told the GF that when I die I want to be stuffed and put in the front yard giving the finger to everyone. She said no. Maybe I can convince her to make a statue?

Que the bitching about him destroying the entire city! (when all he ever directly does is scrape Zod's face against the side of a building).

idk how i feel considering the statue being built in his honor after the end of MOS, and yes,i think that way about the destruction but i dont think he is ahero yet which is why i wanted a sequel to help build him and his supporting cast further, anyways, while im Mixed on MOS,i do hope this film is good, i really like Henry Cavill,i like the choice of Ben Affleck as Batman,im on the fence with Eisenberg as Luthor and Gadot as Wonder Woman but i hope for the best

I'd go with the statue, yoss. That way people can just hang stuff on the boner, and swing a rope and shit--.. wait, are we on the same page here? 'Cause that's what I want for my statue when I finally smoke myself to death.

Okay, just have Lex come in and be like, "Are you stupid Metropolis? Look what he has really done." or something along the lines of that.

Who doesn't love doves? I wonder if Dove's friend Hawk will show up. But on a more serious note getting a statue in your honor is cool.

ezio
I hear you, but we got that info from a highly credible source AND Kevin Smith has just confirmed the same news today.

Pasto-oh he has, cooooooool...well i wish it was soonor but nonetheless we will get a man of steel 2, hopefully this movie is good!!

oh man San Diego Comic con is gonna be insane this year,i cant wait for the superhero goodness!!

Opening scene of the movie. We hear Lex Luthor dedicating the statue during the opening titles.

@Klone

I am anxiously waiting...

@shabat

I noticed it said two years in the rumor, so I won't bother.

Oh, but thank you ever so much for waiting anxiously. I am so grateful and humbled. This has utterly made my year.

Hahaha, JaiHo.

A petty criminal steals $5 and he comes screaming and raging into a neighborhood to stop him burning everything in sight except the criminal :P

I expected it to take place sooner, but if the years have passed that means well be getting a more classic resembling Superman!

Thank God they're going with something that makes sense instead of adapting the narrative to please nonsense complaints from fanboys. I've always said: going with the premise that the world hates Superman or is divided about Superman because "he destroyed Metropolis" is garbage, it doesn't make any sense if they want to do a movie with mature ideas. What makes sense is that most people are aware of the fact that, even though thousands died in Metropolis, Earth is only here and humans are alive because of Superman's efforts. Period.

THAT BEING SAID, I think the world SHOULD BE divided for some reason, and the logical reason is: Superman is an alien with powers that goes beyond anything we have, we can't stop him. For now, he says he's a friend, but what if he turns against us? Who's to say he is always right? What if he thinks humans are wrong and decides to make himself King of the World or whatever? Who's gonna stop him? The existence of Superman is, in its essence, a threat to democracy, a threat to our social organizations. THAT should be the premise, people are building him statues because some people love him, but there's also a complex environment where you find fear and distrust. That's what makes sense and opens relevant themes, not "oh, people are angry with him because he never took the fight away from Metropolis". That's bullcrap, that's childish.
