Man of Steel Sequel Titled 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'

Dawn of Justice is a better title than World's Finest (probably gonna save that one for justice league)

Would be tremendous fun to see Bale in the role,but as a different Batman.....without the throat cancer and everything.

I like the subtitle, but not the main title. Should be "World's Finest: Dawn of Justice" instead. Cool logo, though.

@rustyroy: Even God didn't help him in the first Bane fight.......GOD that was some ass whooping.

@farkam: Exactly! Haha, any of those titles would have done the trick, but no… they HAD to remind us this was a Justice League prequel.

@punyparker: I was worried we were going to get Nolan's Batman when WB tried to get Christian Bale to return...

Am i right? (okay,not me,the guy who made it,but you get it)

But he had God working for him xD

Batsuit and Batmobile, possible Joker tease...title isn't "World's Finest".

2 steps forward, 1 step back.

@rustyroy:

Well it obvious isn't. It's a prequel for the JL movie. People called that months ago.

I think Batman/Superman or Batman vs Superman do the trick. This does sound like something direct to TV, lol.

Its not. Its more like a team up movie like the Avengers than a direct sequel like Iron Man 2.

@tazzmission: Agreed. "Dawn of Justice" sounds cool on it's own. You don't even need to have Bats or Supes in the title cause their symbols are self-explanatory on their own.

Ugh, I'm totally hating all the lucky b@stards that go to comic-con this year and will probably get to see 1st footage

Sounds all good to me whatever lol. Although yeah like some people were saying, World's Finest would of been pretty sweet.

The simpler the better, so World's Finest would be my choice. Or even Batman/Superman or Superman/Batman… Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, feels like a direct to DVD title.

That's a legitimate concern, this is supposed to be his sequel.

My only complaint with the title is Batman's name coming first in what was stated to be a Man of Steel sequel. But other than that I am excited for this movie.

@manneffest: What would be a better title in your opinion?

Name it the most ridiculous name ever. I was sceptic of the movie for the longest time, then I saw how awesome Batman and the Batmobile looked and was thinking about seeing it. And then the title was announced… this sounds like a B-movie. DC is not getting my money.

Agreed. Obvious is obvious. We criticize as though the movie revenue will be based mostly off us comic book aficionados. Such is, sadly, not the case. The general public first, fan service second. Because, frankly, that's where the money is.

While Batman v Superman seems somewhat cliche, overused or just plain pedestrian to the average comic book reading fan, it's far more enticing and identifiable to the commonplace not yet overly saturated with the once upon a time iconic struggle tween the two A-Listers.

Don't like it that much. World's Finest was perfect.

@manneffest: They do what?

Just when I was getting excited for this movie...

They do this.

They're sticking with Batman Vs Superman.........really!?

You know what really sucks? Most likely we won't get a trailer until late 2015, I wish I hated this movie so the wait wouldn't feel sooooooo long...

I really don't like the name keeping Batman v Superman makes it sound like a fun Kaiju throwdown it isn't that. IT sounds like a prequel to a Justice LEague film which makes me worried that it will do what MAn of Steel did which not function as a descrete unit. Ya know like a film SHOULD.

It's beyond obvious this isn't just an MOS sequel, and it's been that way for months so why are people sobbing about Batman's name being first?

In some weird way it even makes sense that it sounds like a court case because VS would mean a fight and the general public would laugh at the notion of batman fighting Superman.

@ultimatesmfan: So? The title doesn't matter in regards to the content. For all the "top billing" Superman got in the pre-52 title that one had more cool Batman moments than the current one. All indications are that Superman will actually get to be the major player in this movie, given that his supporting characters form the majority of the cast. Having said that, this movie being a Man of Steel sequel doesn't mean it exclusively features Superman, it was announced with a World's Finest logo. It will follow plot lines introduced in Man of Steel, but it is a Batman/Superman sequel like Avengers was a sequel to Iron Man. Ironman was still the main character in Avengers, but the movies featured other heroes.

Exactly, its more than just a MOS sequel now.

I thought the hating on WB/DC was over after the positive reactions to the Bat suit, guess I was wrong :/

LMFAO

It just seems like a cheap way to attract as many people as possible to see this movie.

I hope that that isn't the case,because I would lose even more respect for DC from the very little that I already had.

The common Public didn't know what 'The Avengers' meant either....It's called Marketing. Plus the World's Finest is an even older concept than the avengers.

@papinacho: Very doubtful, its most probably because of batman's current popularity, the fact that its a supposed man of steel sequel be damned if it hadn't been stressed as much i wouldn't have had a problem with it, plus the pre-52 version of the series was called Superman/batman.

Its not Superman movie guys.... Its a Batman and Superman team up movie.

Batman outranks Superman in his own movie lol. Superfail.

That's not how I see it really, Batman vs Superman is a specific selling point, it's no mistake that they called it that to me as opposed to a more appropriate name like 'World's Finest' as you suggested. The movie will be a better sell teasing the prospect of two of the most popular superheroes ever, fighting each other on screen.

I really don't care about the title as long as the movie is good. I never have come out of a movie and said "damn, if only the title was better I would have liked this movie.

Why is Batman's name first when it's a Man of Steel sequel?

THeir still calling tHis a Man of Steel sequel?

Poor Superfans.

-ABstract4$$#073-

Superman doesn't even have top billing in his own sequel, please stop with the Batman bullshit.

Batman/Superman: World's finest.

And they don't even need the Batman/Superman part, the logos alone are that iconic.

Ok

Technically WW is in this also. So shouldn't it be 4 balls 1 box?

Really WB.

Is anyone upset about Dawn of the Planet of the Apes? Obvious we know the Apes will win and will rule the planet, maybe in the 3rd or 4th film. This film basically will lead into the third film were they rule the planet.

There's no reason to get upset at WB for titling this movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, to me it entails just how more epic Justice League will be, imo MOS2 looks epic and if that leads to an even more epic film, aka JL, then I'm all for it.

Not to mention the title is for marketing purposes.

I wish the V was in caps. Anyways awesome name and no Dawn of Justice isn't cheesy, its a great name, I don't see anyone complaining about Dawn of the planet of the apes, Age of Ultron etc. And obviously they were going to put Batman's name in first, he's the more popular character now.

It stopped being a MoS sequel as soon as Batman was involved, I've been telling people from the start that its not MoS2 but more like a Batman and Superman team up movie like Avengers.

You guys want to change the title? This is how you do it. First you buy some duct tape and a sharpy marker. Then you find a Batman v Superman; Dawn of Justice poster. You want to start out by scribbling over that silly little v. Then you cover Dawn of Justice with the duct tape. After you have done that, you write World's Finest on the duct tape.... Now you have the movie title you always wanted!

Ps. You don't have to use "World's Finest". You can use what every you like. I'm planning to use Batman v Superman; Two Heroes One Cup.........

The common public has no idea what "World's Finest" means.

I cannot believe the amount of people bi!tching about Batmans name being first! Why on Earth does it even matter?
