Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice Responses

“Remove the ‘S’ from ‘Versus,’ it’s cleaner.” “But isn’t it way more confusing?”

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Four ideas overstuffed into one title, so it’s probably very fitting for the movie.

And here is /Film’s own Russ Fischer’s response:

And this one comes from frequent /Filmcast co-host Jeff Cannata:

“We saw how much people liked The Amazing Spider-Man 2” being a big ad for the third movie and thought, yeah, that’s IT."

That comes after “Twilight of Truth” and before “Mid Afternoon of The American Way”

Instead of “Dawn of Justice”, they could have gone with “We’re Rushing to Catch Up”. Well, that’s sub-TEXT, not sub-title.

And some fan responses:

@slashfilm At least now we know the truth behind that #SadBatman pic. Warner Bros marketing had just shown him the new poster

Why is it that DC takes one step forward then two massive steps backwards?!

Feige and the rest of the Marvel clan must be in stitches right about now.

Does anyone out there like the title? Anyone?

If there’s anyone alive named “Dawn Justice,” her day just got significantly shittier.

Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice leads me to think of the tagline “Whoever wins, we lose”. The “we” being cinema audiences!

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – First half sounds like a legal filing, second half sounds like… what we already thought this movie was.

Well, at least they’ve given the ‘Batman v Superman’ porn parody an easy title. #dongofjustice

WORLD’S FINEST: BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN would have been the best title, but this Game Gear title is what we get.

We’re all just sitting now, staring at each other in stunned silence. One man in a suit and bike helmet has tears running down his cheeks.

@slashfilm Has anyone mentioned that in the MoS sequel, Superman gets second billing?

When referring to Dr. Strangelove, how often do you use it’s entire title?

Also shouldn’t it be called “Batman vs. Superman: Diana of Justice”? Who the fuck is Dawn?

— Scott Weinberg (@scottEmovienerd) May 21, 2014

Title of new Superman/Batman movie could be worse; could have the words “the”, “phantom” and “menace” in it.

I can’t believe “we” spent the morning tearing down a movie title rather than talk about how awesome that Star Wars clip is.
