Obama relies a lot on publicity. How many photoshoots did Superman participate in?

Fair points, but also not proving your point.

I mean this was a day or two before the opening. You couldn't turn on the television without seeing a commercial. Superman as a character is the most recognized person in the entire world. Now here is a guy who plays him, is wearing a t-shirt and is walking around downtown with giant billboards of him all over the place.  

THis is him wearing a superman t-shirt and no glasses on. Sure he would be recognized way easier if wearing superman suit, but he was also not dressed as clark kent. More of a mix of the two.

There is always that psychological explanation for Clark Kent. The whole argument that your brain will convince you against something obvious because you don't or can't belive it. I mean if there were a Superman, and there was someone at your work that looked similar to him would you believe that its him? I mean here is this guy who can shoot solar flares out of his eyes, fly, lift millions of pounds, invulnerable, ect and yet there he is filling his water up at the fridge and writing a story about Kim Kardashian. Or insert whatever work environment you want. I'm sure you'll ask him, watch him, try and catch him ect. But in the end assume its just a likeness. There are sites that youcan easily see most celeb dopplegangers, or heck people alter their looks, hair, even plastic surgery to look like a celeb. If there were a superman, don't you think he would be the most sought after male in the entire world from females. If I looked even a 1/10th like him, I woudl alter my hair, ect to try and look as close to him as I could to also attract girls. 

I disagree. In all honesty, it's my favourite comic book movie (tied with The Dark Knight - with Spiderman 2 close behind). I loved every second of it. I understood everyone's motives.

Batfleck was awesome! I cannot wait for his standalone film!!!

While I see what you're saying, I disagree. If this were a batarang, then absolutely...Batman uses those things like calling cards. But this is a highly-sought after, rare material that Batman spent the better part of an entire movie trying to obtain. Not to mention this is Batman we're talking about here. He's obsessive, meticulous, and way too disciplined to be dropping a weapon like that behind. I think of all people, Batman would be THE character to bother running 10 seconds out of the way to grab it. The point is because he's supposed to be the World's Greatest Detective, and he's extremely cautious (like in the comics, when he creates contingency plans to take down every Justice League member in case they go evil). His detective skills always seem to take a back seat in most of the movie versions, but his meticulousness is usually on point. Take for example in the Dark Knight: before he escapes his mangled car, he sets it to self-destruct. And in the Burton Batman films, if he leaves his car behind, he puts up that neat little shield. If he can take care of his cars so well, surely he can protect a spear? Or take a few steps back from Superman instead of throwing it away?

Also, I just want to mention that while I hated the story, plot, and characterizations in this movie, the set pieces were cool, the music was great, and it's cool if you enjoyed it.

It looks crap to me. I will never see it unless a friend REEEEAAALY wants to watch it or something. I will never watch it of my own choice.

Just watched it for the first time yesterday. At first I was thinking, hey this is alright, and then it just gets worse and worse as it goes along. And I don't watch a lot of movies, haven't seen the latest Marvel movies, so I'm not making any comparisons. There had to be so many bad decisions and missteps all piled on top of each other for that movie to come out the way it did. Zack Snyder is incompetent, is the only explanation I can come up with.

I have no clue how people at WB and DC can watch that movie and still have Zack Snyder anywhere near them.

They really screwed up Superman with this reboot and BvS only made the problems bigger.

In Man of Steel, Superman literally destroyed the laws of physics and nature when he flew into the centre of the Krptonian atmosphere machines. These machines essentially had the same effects as Krptonian but over a much larger area. Superman wasn't in the centre of one of these for a second or a minute, he was in there for ages. Not only did he survive, but he got stronger!

Here in BvS a little piece of Kryptonite is enough to take him down.

The whole Martha thing was also stupid. I know the explanation, but it only masks sense of this current Batman is a dumbass. How the hell can the world's greatest detective not know who Superman's mother is?!

Not only have they wrecked Bats and Supes, but the new Flash is horrendous. His scene was like a spoof thrown into film. I burst out laughing until I realised how badly they screwed up with the casting and how forced the scene itself was.

This movie had so many plotholes and questionable moments. It was worse than a Michael Bay film. With those at least they don't try to be clever or claim to be anything more than what they are. The problem with Snyder is he is overrated as a director and story teller but WB don't get it. Snyder does one thing good and that is recreating panels from comics 1-1 as scenes in films. Unfortunately for him, the DCU isn't that and the films aren't that either.

They needed a new Bruce not older one.

They needed a lighter Supes to balance a dark knight.

They needed a colourful DCU with the exception of Batman outings.

As AJ would say, they done fucked it up!

Most of your points are entirely accurate, the movie has a lot of flaws.

I was going to reply but you nailed it.

That's not the worst part. The movie is terrible, is supersaturated, it takes itself too seriously while being too stupid, the narrative is clunky, plenty of cliches, it feels way too long while lacking a feeling of progression, Is a film where you see tons of things happening yet none of them is able to save you from boredom, a lot of noise but no quality cinema at all, just a pretentious mess.
