Ben Affleck Confirms 'Superman' Destroyed One Of 'Bruce Wayne''s Buildings In MAN OF STEEL
Zack Snyder talks here about always planning to address the much criticised destruction in Man of Steel, while explaining why that simply had to be shown in the movie. Ben Affleck meanwhile confirms that Bruce Wayne has ties to that fateful day in Metropolis. Check it out!
Anyone else sick of hearing people complain about that epic final battle in Man of Steel? It seems Zack Snyder is based on a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, and he's now further expanded on the that point by discussing why he believes it was wholly necessary to show a large amount of death and destructoon when Superman went to war with General Zod with the fate of Earth hanging in the balance. "There are other superhero movies where they joke about how basically no one’s getting hurt,. That’s not us. What is that message? That’s it’s okay that there’s this massive destruction with zero consequence for anyone? That’s what Watchmen was about in a lot of ways too. There was a scene, that scene where Dan and Laurie get mugged. They beat up the criminals. I was like the first guy, I want to show his arm get broken. I want a compound fracture. I don’t want it to be clean. I want you to go, ‘Oh my God, I guess you’re right. If you just beat up a guy in an alley he’s not going to just be lying on the ground. It’s going to be messy."
The magazine goes on to reveal that the plan was always for the dead to be counted in a follow-up to Man of Steel, and as expected, it's going to be a major driving force for the Caped Crusader when he decides to target Metropolis' new hero. In fact, Ben Affleck has revealed that Superman destroyed more than just one of Bruce Wayne's satellites. "One of the things I liked was Zack’s idea of showing accountability and the consequences of violence and seeing that there are real people in those buildings," he revealed. "And in fact, one of those buildings was Bruce Wayne’s building so he knew people who died in that Black Zero event." So, does that mean everyone will stop complaining now? Here's hoping! Anyway, share your thoughts on these comments below.
