"Why did you say that name?"

With Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice crossing the $530 million mark worldwide, the full main cast, including Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg, Gal Gadot, Laurence Fishburne, Holly Hunter, and Diane Lane along with director Zack Snyder did a victory lap on Conan last night and had a grand time with the always hilarious Conan O'Brien. While they spoke on a variety of different aspects regarding the process behind making the critically panned film, the most important topic stemmed from the question many have been asking ever since the film was first announced: why are Superman and Batman fighting in the first place? Well, O'Brien thankfully was able to solve the mystery for the entire world and as it turns out it may have a little something to do with Martha...

O'Brien reminded the cast about a small film titled Hollywoodland that Affleck co-starred in with Lane, who portrays Martha Kent, mother of Superman, and well as you can imagine, in typical Bruce Wayne fashion, Affleck's character in the film got up close and personal with the future mother of the Man of Steel. Check out the funny exchange below:



Plus, here are more funny clips from the cast's visit, including one with Adams & Gadot you don't want to miss, and you can head over to Team Coco to watch the full episode, which includes the clips below and a lot more hilarity:












Fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, Gotham City's own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis's most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it's ever known before.

@MrEqualizer - The end with batarangs is me playing Arkham Knight and trying to control the remote batarang except without the excessive cursing.
