I actually hate most of the World's Finest arcs. With a few of done been done right.
Agreed with the Wonder Woman thing though.
The thing i know am gonna hate about this movie, is through PIS/CIS, Kal will be dumb out to make Batman look cool, which in my opinion would be stupid and pointless story telling.
I just hope that after said jobbing, there's a moment where Batman clearly sees and or admits that Superman could end him in a moment's notice with like 0.1% effort.
As a kid, I used to think the Superman-Batman team-up in World's Finest was ridiculous. Indeed, what could a mere man who dresses like a bat bring to the table in helping a demigod. But then, Superman:TAS handled their meeting quite well, I thought (even if Batman did give an unsuspecting Superman a judo flip). And the Superman/Batman series by DC was excellent.
This could work.
And as much as I would like to see Wonder Woman, she could actually be harder to bring off on the big screen (it's been problematic; that's why there hasn't been a movie or even a new TV series); and Batman would be more logical cuz he is generally considered #2 in the DC pantheon. And given Cav-El is not that experienced or powerful yet with his abilities, a tactical-thinking Batman could prove to have some assets this Superman could use.
This could work. Maybe the Superman/Batman series should be the writers' guide.

I'm not sure it needs to be said because I think it's just perfectly clear that toe to toe there's no contest at all. Batman doesn't even have any powers. Everyone knows his head would be snapped off in a split second if thats what Supes wanted.
That said I really hope Batman brings all his assets to the table to show audiences that there is a point to this team up.
It doesn't matter that he could be rich if he wanted. The fact is he isn't. If a new threat emerges he doesn't suddenly go "I need to quickly make a Billion dollars so I have the resources to find out this guys weakness."
Considering Lois already knows about how Clark is Superman I doubt we have to worry about a love triangle.
As for the inevitable confrontation, I have no doubt that Batman will use every advantage available and will still only be able to stalemate Superman despite the fact that Supes will be holding back.
I'm stoked for this.. Can't wait for Kal to get batkicked, which I know will happen because lets face it, WB will give this new Batman every opportunity to win fans over.. I have already figured out the story though ... Kal and Bruce will fight periodically then realize the bigger threat so then its time to team upto take him out
yea i do.. lolol.. but it really isn't too hard to figure out.. i gotta think that Bruce will come to town for some reason, he could very well throw around his money.. Goyer could take a cue from Superman/Batman:World's Finest and have them instantly know something about each other..
