He might literally visit you in your house and smash, if you know what I mean.

I wouldn't put it past him, the prick.

The reactions so far from the early screenings.

Kevin McCarthy (GeekNation, Nerdtears.com) - loved it, apparently. Posting “nerd tears” Tweets and statuses after the screening in the junket expo room for ages, geeking out all over the place. Told Henry he was “amazing in the film,” Gal is “amazing,” and so on.

Chris Sylvia (VP of Regal Cinemas, Batman fan)- double thumbs up. Liked lots of positive Tweets, responded to fan messages saying it was a massive improvement on_MOS, great start for a whole universe, everyone nailed their parts- you’d have seen the screenshots here.

Pakistan Fans (Osama Com Laude)- two fans, ADORED it. Proved they saw it with those damn leaked photos, and WB asked them to take down their review, but they were LAUDING it and loving it and entirely in heaven. Just remember when WB ask something to be removed it’s because they don’t want spoilers out there and actually care for the fans- removing POSITIVE reviews shows confidence, if you ask me.

Carrie Keegan (Reviewer on CriticsChoice)- 4/4 (or 90/100.) Both Edward Douglas' (he said it was a joke since, no proof he's seen the movie) and Reegans’ ratings were placed on the site. No real word yet but they’re listed on the site as such. (Update - her rating has since disappeared, whether a glitch or embargo breaking worrying them, I dunno).

Krystal Bianca (Critic)- “HOT DAMNN! Just watched Batman v Superman, mind effing blown, amazing movie,” couldn’t wait to interview the cast.

LeoLins (Brazilian comic show host)- was apparently sceptical going in, but apparently says it was “*****ing awesome,” his tweet praising Ben and Henry, the tone of the movie Snyder “got right,” and Lex “done justice and right.”

Anthony Breznican- says it delivered, an ‘intricate tale of hidden agendas, psychological turmoil, and even some complex theological questions — plus a lot of smashing’ comment. The EW writer who offered the first impression of all- positive, too.

Brazilian Critic (unverified, largely)- Tweeted it was good but she didn't like it because she "misses Bale," has a bit of a Nolan/Bale shrine going on too.

Robert Liefeld- pretty vocally against_BVS/the DCEU for a fair while, however says he loved_MOS_recently, and “multiple sources tell him_BVS_is great.”

Steven Weintraub- “Just spoke to someone that's not the biggest superhero movie fan and he absolutely LOVED Batman v Superman. Said it's his favorite so far.” Said he’s heard very positive things, has now seen it but said yesterday he would post nothing (this was before he’d seen it) until embargo breaks.

Paul Shirey (JoBlo)- says he’s heard nothing negative.

Kristian Harloff (Schmoes Know)- saw someone who went in cynical and unsure- he’s been iffy on it himself- and apparently loved it. John Campea source- says it’s “great.” Also another has “spoken to someone who loved the movie but said potentially their one concern was Batman may actually be too dark.”

Robert Burnett- says he spoke to someone else, a fan filmmaker (undisclosed) who apparently was “primed to hate this movie…and he liked it.”

Jeff Sneider (Meet the Movie Press, The Wrap)- apparently spoke to someone who said they'd seen it, shaking his head, saying "it's a DC movie." Whatever that means.

Justin Kroll (Variety)- has 'heard it's great, really.'

Devin Faraci- says reviews are “decidedly mixed,” but cites no particular sourcing on that. Hasn’t seen it yet. Other insiders like Mayimbe/Shirey seem to contradict.

Umberto Gonzales- tweeted out 11 “cryptic” red tomatoes, says he’s heard fresh thumbs up, great things from everyone.

Dave Morales (BackStageOL)- “The film as a whole is amazing, but I can’t say it out in public, but like…wait until you see this fight scene. It’s just mindblowing.” – interviewing Henry.

Marc Bernardin (Fatman on Batman)- Fairly vocally critical of_MOS_and_BVS, but after the screening tweeted out a thumbs up.

Morgan Hoffman (Critic)- Hasn’t said anything officially because of the embargo, but apparently talked to people on Snapchat and she replied “WONDER WOMAN!!!”

Christian Zamora (Buzzfeed Critic)- immediate post after the screening with a ton of crying emojis, clapping emojis, and thumbs up emojis. Deleted it, and then tried to say it was about something else. Seems unlikely, but take it as you will.

Donna Freydkin (AOL Interviews) – was taken aback when Jesse said he hadn’t watched the movie yet, and when he asked if she liked it, she replied “I loved it!” quite authentically, “especially your character” and goes into depth on how he’s layered and interesting and makes the movie. At the end of the interview says “the movie opens on the 25th, and it’s awesome!” Later on Twitter said Jesse was “hella talented.”

Michael Strahan (Live with Kelly and Michael) - Excitedly saying he saw the movie but couldn't say anything, "it's worth the wait, that's all I can say." Later on, "I gotta say man, I loved the movie."

Christian Todd (Critic)- "Awestruck tonight by the cast and crew of Batman v Superman. The movie was breathtaking! Please go see it, you won't be disappointed."

I heard Strahans comments this morning.

^ Nice

If this film gets 65% on Rotten Tomatoes I'll call that a win.

😂

Setting the bar low.

Personally, I just want to enjoy the film. I really don't care about the RT score. But a high score is always nice for "validation" I guess.

You're right tbh

But screw RT. RT gave Superman Returns a high score. I don't want no SR.

People are going to be polarised by this movie, at least on boards like this.

In general, I think the GA will enjoy the movie.

How dense are you? Seriously? You're like talking to a petulant wall. This for the 100th time is about the TWO BIG COMPANIES. This isn't just about Marvel. My entire point has been about both companies. Yet YOU keep bringing Marvel into the mix; not I. Like, are you 12 years old?
You're an idiot; straight up. You provoked this flame war by continually insinuating that I was a Marvel fanboy. I wasn't bashing DC during my argument. Nor do I want DC to fail. I want their movies to be good. I enjoyed the hell out of the First Batman, the OG (first 2) Superman movies, and the first 2 Nolan Batman films. I WANT both companies to make good movies. Yet YOU keep trying to start a war with me about Marvel vs DC. Grow up kid. Seriously.
He is a known DC fanboy who bashed anyone who gets in his way. Pay him no mind.

I think she'll perform great. That screencap/gif alone is better than MCU's Scarlet Witch, for example. Or Sony's Gwen. Or WB's Wonder Woman...

Elizabeth Olsen is a much better actress. I need to see more from Olivia Munn other than just "being hot" to even begin to compare her to Wanda Maximoff.

Well, Leo, you know shit nothing about Lex

The good news is that none of them mentioned anything about Supes getting the shaft, so thats good. At least the movie respects him. I was scared it would be a Batman wankfest.

Snyder showing Marvel Studios how a high tier hero is done

someone can tell me from what TV show is this pic? looks cool for TV

Based off just those 2 pics, Civil War looks better, but ok.

What PlayStation game is the Superman pic from?

Is that Superman shot from the film?

The Superman pic just looks darker. Wouldn't say that make it look better.
