Ever since the extra Batman v Superman footage of Batman and Superman speeding towards each other's been released all I've been hearing is how unrealistic it is. How Batman will be killed, there will be Batwanking in it, cries of PIS, Batgod will triumph again ,blah blah blah. This isn't the only superhero movie that will see someone with Godlike strength fighting a regular human in a suit of armor. A little movie called Avengers: Age of Ultron will be released soon and it'll feature someone with Superman like strength vs... a normal human in armor. But where are all the snarky "lol Iron Man dies" type of responses that Batman got?
Now even as a Batman fan I have to admit obviously Superman SHOULD win when the 2 fight and that realistically him racing towards the Man of Steel would end in his death. Having said that Iron Man vs Hulk is no more realistic than Batman vs Superman and tbh it's probably even less realistic. At least with Superman Batman can weaken him if he gets enough Kryptonite, in Superman Returns Lex flippin Luthor without any armor and some thugs of his managed to beat Superman nearly to death because he literally had tons of it. So if Batman were to get his hands on that much Kryptonite, the fact that Superman's morals will cause him to massively hold back, plus the enhancements his suit'll give him he's got a chance. Iron Man vs Hulk on the other hand? There's no Kryptonite like weakness Tony can exploit and Hulk (especially if Scarlet Witch is controlling him) is less likely to pull his punches vs his human enemy than Superman is.
So if anything Batman being able to go toe to toe with Superman is a little more realistic than Iron Man vs Hulk is but the former gets more complaints than the latter, why?
