Am I the only one who was disappointed when the trial blew up because I thought it would be the moment where Superman finally addresses the world and explains himself convincingly? What they did with that scene kind of worked on me as an audience member in the sense that it shocked me out of my expectations and I felt a sense of loss. So for that one moment they should get some credit. Too bad the rest of the movie is so broken.. they needed to make up for that by the end of the movie, and have Superman be a shining smiling hero for at least one moment before the movie ended.
I was disappointed the trial blew up because it was pointless and was a really dumb way to try to make people hate Superman.

Can we agree that Hack Snyder has no business doing more films? He has no grasp of story or character, and his visual style is incredibly narrow. Everything is dark, chaotic and confusing. All his films are perfect examples what a pissy, spoiled eight year-old boy thinks is cool.
Snyder is the most emo director ever.
He doesn’t even have the intelligence and/or ability to adapt his “style” to the kind of movie he is making. He should never have directed “Man of Steel” or “Batman v Superman.” If Snyder is going to keep making movies, they should be short films (5 minutes MAX) about hurricanes, and filmed only at night.

See I somewhat enjoyed the movie. To be this is a much more interesting version of Superman because he’s not perfect, makes mistakes, and still trying to figure things out. Yea maybe the fight between Superman and Batman was a lot of punching but what else could it have been? It delivered enough spectacle to make it enjoyable and I a lot of the holes this movie has I think were put there on purpose to fill in during future films. I thought that was the purpose of The Flash scene. To tell the audience what is happening now directly relates to what’s going on in the future.
I agree! I’m really looking forward to those subtle hints to be fleshed out in other films.
