Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice (Ultimate Edition)

Hey everyone!

HOLY SHIT!!!! This one was totally wild! I never thought a 3 hour movie could pass by so quickly! I LOVED this one! That being said, there were a BUNCH of things that I picked apart about it.

I won't spoil anything, so I will let you all watch the reaction to pick up on my gripes with this movie. Hint: it builds off of what I said was wrong with Man of Steel, BUT there are a lot of other things that I had to say about this movie, as well...

Guys, this is where I need you, because I need to know the hierarchy of DC movies. Give me the TOP 5 BEST DC MOVIES! IN ORDER!!!

Love you all so much!!

this is exactly how batman would act if superman attacked him, Batman would take out the Entire Justice League if he wanted too

kevin Rivera

Brandon

imo his Batman movie would've been terrible. I mean, Batman doesn't kill, that's one of his best character traits, but this version has no issue with it lol. Also, back in like 2009 Snyder said his version of Batman is one that could get raped in the prison shower. Probably not a great thing to hear from someone who ended up handling the Batman character lol

StephenJH

Brad

fun fact, the senator with the lisp is also the VA for elastigirl in the incredibles.

kenny mannino

still waiting for Wonder Woman and Zack Snyder Justice League reaction :(

NuunOzil

When do get to see you watch Justice league :)) ?

Dante's Inferno

The fact that you just blindly assumed that Superman would dispose of Batman so easily is amusing. Batman's contingency plans have contingency plans lol Also, you gotta watch the Justice League Snyder Cut movie. If you wanted the full spectrum leading up to it, you could watch the Wonder Woman movie first. That shows her origin in this universe and shows the backstory of that picture that you see her in, in this movie.

The Splawn

you have no knowledge

Viktor Shevyrev

Yeah the studio destroyed this shit. When the makers actually got to release their vision years later we got to see it but it was too late

Charles Walker

idk i think josh killed it in this movie his cadence carries that sound of ill intentions and his demeanor is always keeping you guessing also love the reaction

Brady Schwartz

The best DC Movie is Suicide Squad (2021)

Marc Stüttgen

The Alfred actor is actually older than he seems. Jeremy Irons was only 4 years younger than Michael Caine was in Batman Begins

Pistols O'Brien

The fact that you randomly looked away for 1.5sec when it was what is in my opinion one of the coolest shot of the movie hahahaha (not blaming you at all it happens, it was random but made me laugh lol)

Rocketboy

Justice League (Zack Snyder's cut) is THE BEST ONE + Suicide Squad (the 2nd one), Wonder woman 1 deserve to be seen !!! Adding to that the tv show Peacemaker which is freaking great, one of the best superhero tv show out there MCU included

Rocketboy

He had to have killed at least 6 people in the car chase

Andrew Pudwill

If he had better writing Ben affleck could’ve been one of the best Batman’s. I personally loved his adaptation of it, his suit is hands down one of if not my favorites.

Jackson Scarberry

Damn man never got around to watching this version of the film it’s so much better than the og release. I love how they lean more into the knightmare world (the dystopian visions) they had the dcau going in a very cool direction. The knightmare world is very reminiscent of the injustice storyline. Injustice is a comic (and animated film) about Superman being pushed so far over the edge by the joker that he becomes a tyrant killing “crime” before it can start. Like Knightmare Clark blames Bruce for everything because he refused to kill the joker sooner. All it takes is one bad day Side note this film is based of the death of Superman (doomsday) and the original dark knight comics (Batman v Superman)

Nightmareman99

Wonder Woman THE Suicide Squad Man of Steel

CourtneyCakes

You could probably write a 100-page essay about everything that's wrong with the DCEU movies. The fact that most of them required extensive reshoots or even alternate versions (like this one) to fix the messy stories and writing is a testament to the lacking quality. The biggest flaw for me will always be the unfaithful portrayal of the characters though. If you know Superman and Batman from the source material (like the comics), you wouldn't even recognize them in the characters shown in this movie. It's pretty painful to see how something like Justice League Unlimited, which is a children's cartoon, does a significantly better job showing off the characters in an accurate way. If you want to continue watching more DCEU movies, I can recommend the first Wonder Woman movie and Justice League (the Snyder Cut version). It's very long and not perfect, but it's miles better than the theatrical release. "The Suicide Squad" (different movie from just "Suicide Squad") is also pretty good.

TMK

I think you're mixing up the Suicide Squad movies. The first one is one of the worst (superhero) movies of all time, the second one is the good one.

TMK

you are so dumb

Abuzz Klanica

Honestly, even though it isn’t a part of this universe I really think you should watch Teen Titans go to the movies once you’re done with a lot of these because that movie is so Meta, but some of its jokes that I think you would actually really enjoy it

C Tuley

Suicide squad Wonder Woman Justice leauge

Ravh

Think of green Kryptonite like super cancer once it's near a Kryptonian (maybe a poor analogy but an accurate one)

Baba Yaga

u asked if aquaman is a badass movie....... Ahhhhh YEAH!!!!!!

Michael Hodgkinson

Wtf no😂😂😂😭😭😭 then you dont know who batman is 😭😭

Abuzz Klanica

ahhhh yeah,, batman definitely kills when necessary

Michael Hodgkinson

n which movie r u referring??

Michael Hodgkinson

yes this man knows the deal!!!👌

Michael Hodgkinson

another words its Terrible

Michael Hodgkinson

and please dont even waste yout time with SHAZAM, awful, and corny as hell

Michael Hodgkinson

yeah,, entirely way too fuckin long

Michael Hodgkinson

the first suicide squad, the 2nd one is garbage, n the snyder cut justice league is not as good as good as everyone claims it 2 b,, its worth watching tho,, its definitely WAY TO LONG!

Michael Hodgkinson

Aquaman,, man of steel,, the flash,, wondr woman, justice league

Michael Hodgkinson

If this didn't come out at the height of the MCU then I think the DCU had a chance of being great even with a mid Justice League.

Nerveroxis

Alex you def have to watch the rest of the DCU. This was a really fun reaction. Had a blast.

jake hassler

We should make a dc day sometime, similar to marvel Monday

Michael

He’d have to do two parts cuz it’s 4 hours long

Lewis Ramos

This movie has a special place in my heart, Batfleck 4 life🙌🏼

Lewis Ramos

LOVE the fuckin names you came up with for Jesse Eisenberg!

Brian Stanaland

this makes me want him to watch superman and lois sooooooooooo bad

Ethan Saylor

You got to do them in order if you want my bro. . . Wonder Woman. . Suicide Squad . . ZSJL. . .Aquaman. . .Shazam . .etc lol

LogicPBX

My reply was to Alex Hefner. The Owner of this page. HAGL 🙌🏻

Terancino Nakai

You notice who was playing Bruce’s parents at the beginning? Fkin Negan and Maggie from the walking dead. This film birthed fans begging for Warner bros to give us a flashpoint paradox live action film. The flashpoint story is where the flash goes back in time to save his mother from dying sending ripples throughout the world changing the timeline. If the flashpoint universe Bruce was the one who dies not his parents. His dad became Batman one who uses guns and isn’t afraid to kill while his mother went insane and became the joker. There is a animated film that is great and with show just how badass aquaman is.

Nightmareman99

Correct. So let's swap it for The Flash 😜

Adam Ramirez

Justice league ZACK SNYDER EDITION

Jordan Wing

He's already watched The Batman. Plus it also has nothing to do with the DCEU franchise.

Brayden

What do you mean we might never get these two on the screen again? James Gunn is literally creating a new universe where Batman and Superman will coexist

Mehdi R.

Alex, as a long time DC fan, trust me I’m old AF, you need to watch the original Superman with Christopher Reeve, just for general backstory and Superman knowledge in general. I think you’re missing a few things in these that they assume the viewer is aware of. Doomsday, the final beast at the end, was never touched on in the films before. Doomsday and the death of Superman was a story in comics back in 1992. Yes I remember it well, thank you. So that part of the story would have been new to any viewer of the movies. Cavill is an awesome Superman, and I thought the whole cast is good. Your next watch in the series is Wonder Woman and Aquaman, but I would watch the 1978 Superman before finally tackling the Snyder Cut Justice League.

Vic Nadata

Such a good movie lots of hard work put into it. From set building to post production. All you got left is the 5 hours Snyder crafted perfectly to end it all. Good creativity. If comics can change and have different iterations so can movies. We might never get to see these two Goliath of characters hit the screen together because of horrendous fans. Can’t wait for the next reactions to WW, aquaman, and Snyders justice league. 🙌🏻🔥

Terancino Nakai

My general opinion is that regardless of what DCEU movies you watch as a reactor, at some point in your life you should watch The Suicide Squad (2021) because I'm very confident you will enjoy that movie. It's by the same director as Guardians of the Galaxy but it's a bit more...off kilter. It's a very well made example of violently comedic superhero movies.

Anarane

Batman whos older, whos in deeper depresion and has no hope and dont care about killing. Is such good concept but snyder didnt make this good. Thats my whole problem with this.

Abuzz Klanica

Older Batman starts killing... well first he stops pulling his punches, then he stops caring whether they live or die, and then finally he starts going for kill shots... most of the people batman fought in this movie, with the exception of the vision of the future, were alive when he left them... they may not have stayed that way for long, and there was at least one guy who is full-on paralysed from the neck down, but Batman only murdered the Russian.

Eshin Squirrel-Knight Revan

In my opinion, Man of Steel Batman v. Superman (Ultimate) Zack Snyder's Justice League The Flash make a good condensed story arc. Aquaman is good too.

Jordan Tanner

Now you can watch Aquaman and Wonder Woman, or you could just jump straight into Zack Snyder's Justice League. For the love of all things holy, do not watch the Joss Whedon version of Justice League. Snyder's is long but it is 1,000% better. Justice League (Whedon) 40% 🍅 Zack Snyder's Justice League 71% 🍅

Jordan Tanner

How do you have such a wrong opinion

I Phone

Bro what??😂😂😂

Abuzz Klanica

If you like better for you but snyder is bad director and this is the cause

Abuzz Klanica

Man hopefully you’ll dive into some of the DC Animated Universe. Starting with Flashpoint Paradox

NuunOzil

Batman kills in the comics

Diana

The OG “Superman The Movie” with Christopher Reeves, is still the best imo. It has the emotion Alex is looking for.

Diana

As someone that grew up loving the Justice league, that dressed up as Wonder Woman as a child, and had much love for Superman movies because I used to watch them with my dad, the CRs ones, and as cheesy as Lex Luthor (the actor's name it's escaping me now) may have come across in that version (Gene Hackman???), I would still prefer it 100% more, style wise than this Heisenberg version. I don't believe any true fan can really love it. Enroll Elon Musk, next time, that would be very realistic 😁🫣

MarySoul

This is probably one of the most softcore weenie hutt jr. rated R movie ever

Redious

Always good to start the reaction off a little sticky

Fleshtotem

I personally like this more jaded version of the character

Fleshtotem

Alex my take on the entire DCEU is that they rushed way too much and lost a lot of emotion like you said. If I were you I wouldn't view these movies as how the characters actually are (the movies that do that the best are the DCAU movies)

Chad Higgins

I agree. These movies are really cool action movies but horrible DC and CBMs

Chad Higgins

Batman doesn't kill. This is the worst batman weve ever had in live action.

Abuzz Klanica

DCEU ranking for me would have to be: 1) Wonder Woman 2) Man of Steel 3) Snyders Justice League 4) Aquaman 5) Shazam

ThatStonerB

Alex, you keep saying it's a no brainer that superman versus batman, no contest, superman wins... yet in the comics, Batman has beaten every superhero that he has come up against because he is smart enough to come up with a plan to win in every scenario, including the Hulk, when DC and Marvel did a crossover. He's trained himself to be the physical peak of humanity. He has the intelligence and the finances to create technology and weapons to rival god's and to outthink every foe, he faces the only one that ever posed a real threat to him in the outcome was the joker, because he was so chaotic and unpredictable. So as you are saying, yeah, it's a no brainer, thinking that superman is the obvious win, everyone that has knowledge of the comics is saying yeah, it's a no brainer, Batman's got this in the bag.

Michael Shelton

Alex, one final thought about DC (all of DC, not just the movies): DC has arguably the top 3 superheroes of all time. Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman. Some call them the trinity of superheroes. Superman directly got his name from the German idea of the “Übermensch.” It’s always about their power and fighting evil (Batman using his detective skills and weapons), and ability to rule the world if they wanted to but choose to help humanity instead. It’s not about their relationships, character development, or emotional arcs. Those 3 never really had that to the same degree other characters did, and when stories try to add that to them, it ruins the god-like aspects of what they are. They work together to defeat evil and Batman uses his ingenuity, money, and detective skills to help, but also keep the other two in check - many times in the comics hiding stashes of kryptonite weapons as insurance. And Batman does kill in the comics and is a loner. He’s not looking to chill and hang out. He’s on a mission and only wants to partner with them for strategic purpose, not friendship. By the way, DC stands for Detective Comics.

Diana

Yes

Diana

Joshua Eisenblast, that one cracked me up lol

fadyq1326y1

and "my wife walked out on me" "we know you're not gonna do that"

jamie minnell

professor Lex needs a mention too.

jamie minnell

is "senitor Jane Finch" elasta girl?

jamie minnell

gotta respect the leg up joke

jamie minnell

Good reaction but.. you don’t have to tell us every fucking time you don’t like Jesse’s acting sheesh other than that 100% agree with the emotional stuff. It’s good when they do it but if they did it more than they did it would have been perfect

Michael Seiber

Top 5 DCEU 1.Man of Steel 2. Zack Snyder s Justice League 3. Batman V Superman(Ultimate cut) 4. Wonder woman 5. Aquaman This isn't the definitive list, it's just my favorites. N my favorites from this universe is what I'll call the "Zack Snyder DC trilogy" (Man of Steel, BvS, and Zack Snyder's Justice League)

TWIZTIDpsycho69

Whatever you do, STAY AWAY from Justice League 2017 theatrical cut

TWIZTIDpsycho69

If you watch nothing else from the DCEU, watch Zack Snyder's Justice League. Key word: ZACK SNYDER'S Justice League. Then if you wanted to watch anything else, the Wonderwoman movies, Aquaman movies and Shazam movies. And maybe The Flash

TWIZTIDpsycho69

WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAMEEEEE

Kalen Shoemaker

Bro all the different things you call Jesse Eisenberg throughout this movie😂😂😂

Donny Alberts

I remember seeing it in theaters was badass then like its badass now killer movie Zack Snyder's Justice League is off the fucking chain and yes the Aquaman movie is a epic film in its self people use to think of Aquaman as a kinda lame ass character bitch who can only talk to fish jk jk haha etc. the movie helped change the perception.

Farmer Jayy

The Batman in this movie got rid of his no kill rule because the Joker killed Robin.

Bmaster532

and aquaman

Zakk Z

You have to watch the first Wonder Women and Aquaman before you watch Justice League and make sure its the Synder Cut JL

Zakk Z

Yeah, let Luther is supposed to be more of a mature politician type bad guy who isn't out to just kill people, but if very scheming for all kinds of different goals, not some weird quirky college kid...

Nate D.

Top 5 DC Movies in view order 1. Man of Steel #2 2. Batman V Superman #3 3. Wonder Woman #4 4. Zack Snyders Justice League #1 5. The Batman #5 Excluding: - OG Tim Burton Saga -Christopher Nolan Dark Knight Saga (My personal Favorite)

Adam Ramirez

I like how (A)lex recognized B-15 (Wunmi Mosaku) immediately in Deadpool but not at all in BvS! And it's not the headset you're just really jumpy lol

Tay Tay

I agree 100%!!!

Miss Molly

So are we getting justice league Snyder cut...? Please

Ana

the way my mouth dropped when you bit into that orange 😭

Zakk Z

Yeah I rounded up to 5 hence why I said nearly 5. You are correct the actual time is 4 1/2 hours

Chad Higgins

Really? Google said it’s under 4 and 1/2 hours. (Not trying to say you’re wrong just curious where you got that)

Matthew

Wonder Woman came next

Diana

Wonder Woman is next

Diana

The end literally means ZACK SNYDER JUSTICE LEAGUE IS NEXT! No spoilers but you gotta see it next!

Cooking with Emerson

Top 5 in order? Wonder Woman Zack Synder’s Justice League Man of Steel Aquaman Batman v Superman But in what to watch next I’d say, Wonder Woman then ZSJL Continuity wise after BVS? Wonder Woman Wonder Woman 1984 Suicide Squad ZSJL Aquaman Shazam! Birds of Prey The Suicide Squad Black Adam Shazam! Fury of the Gods The Flash Blue Beetle Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom

Greg

Let's goooooo!!!

Adam Ramirez

Gotham is a fantastic series. Met Sean Pertwee a few times at cons, real great guy. Hopefully in the not so distant future that could be a series Alex reacts to

PuNKD Steven

Also the Gotham series is good, for DC, and Agents of SHIELD of Marvel. Both are the great series.

Metal Machine

no, Wonderwoman must be.

Metal Machine

He is a coming. Who? Thanos. Or equivalent.

Metal Machine

So batman has gone crazy, is literally cutting supermans cheek like a psychopath but stops because martha? Gtfo. The government send in drones to blow up the place, he take them out, then gets framed by lexs crew for killing everyone and the government calls him to a ln open hearing. Wouldnt he just say why am i here answering for these deaths when yall sent in drones to kill everyone. And when superman learns his mom has been taken he has one hour, he could search the entire earth ten times over in an hour looking for her but hes like no, ill gonto batman. Then when he meets batman he could just grab him a fly up and be like listen but no. Then after the first kryptonite cannister, the second gets shot at him. That would be slow mo to superman but instead he just jumps into it and takes it. Fuck he could blown it away from him by lightly breathing. And batman just killing everyone, defeats thugs in their car, then attaches a cable to the car to destroy it and make sure everyone is dead. God i hate this movie. I could list 100 more things i hate. This movie mad me sad in theaters.

jamie jones

Justice league Snyder cut is definitely next 😁

Eloy yaxon

For the most part I would agree with you but in my opinion that’s not quite as true in ZSJL. (Spoilers ahead) What Snyder did with Cyborg was in my opinion the strongest character work and emotional connection that he’s done in the DCEU, and I’d say that Cyborgs character development is kind of the heart of that whole movie.

Josh

I'd like to see the watchmen here

Live and Another Games

I do understand where Alex is coming from when he says the movie lacks emotional depth, but, I also feel that could be from him not knowing the comics. I believe the movie kind of relies on you knowing the story of Lois and Clark and their relationship to feel the emotion between them. While the MCU can tell a good origin story and people without comic knowledge can get it, the DCEU just expects you to know the characters already going in.

Jordan Skinner

Gotta watch Wonder Woman next. The first film is very good.

David

My Top 5 Favorite DC movies: 1) Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021), 2) Wonder Woman (2017), 3) Batman (1989), 4) The Batman, 5) Batman Returns

David Crabtree

Ye

L-E-D-Chris

I prefer the animated DC movies. Gritty, violent, intense action, sometimes gory. But if we’re just going off of live action ones: Wonder Woman The Dark Knight Rises The Dark Knight Snyder Cut: Justice League Zack Snyder only cares about visuals. And they are great. But you won’t find character development or emotional connection to the characters in any of his movies

Diana

Bro you need to watch the penguin series, its absolutely incredible

zimy__

I think these are the best: The Suicide Squad (2021) Batman Begins The Dark Knight Batman (1989) Watchmen Joker The Penguin series is INCREDIBLE and a must watch

lunasera

Alex, my brother, you have so many questions about ratings and why certain movies get them; did you ever watch the film 'This Film is Not yet Rated'? it's from Kirby Dick, it'll give you an insight into this process even from nearly 30 years ago, and it's only gotten more stringent.

Neon_ninja

DCEU Just watch: Zack Snyder’s Justice League and The Flash and you’ll be good to pass on the rest.

Jordan Tanner

Penguin🐧

Isak Lillemoen

I'd suggest u forget everything yk abt the dcu and just go into every movie open minded bc Zack Snyder LOVES to not follow comic plots and not stay loyal to the characters

L-E-D-Chris

Technically suicide squad is next right?

Thunder

Alex Alfred is actually more accurate in these movies since he's a very capable fighter and ex British secret service

Chad Higgins

It was kinda cool watching it back to see the actress who played Hunter B-15 in Loki. (she was the woman whos town/village was destroyed and testified against superman).

David

After watching this one DEFINITELY REACT TO JUSTICE LEAGUE ZAK SNYDER VERSION! Not the theatrical version. 🚨

Cooking with Emerson

You are right, Jamie Eisenhower is overacting, that's not at all what Lex Luthor is supposed to act, nor look like

crackdobby

Best DCEU movies: 1. Wonder woman 2. Aquaman 3. Shazam 4. The flash 5. Batman Vs superman ultimate edition The flash movie has a lot of hate because of Ezra miller and the bad CGI but other than that the flash is solid and an entertaining movie to watch

Riley Wilkin

We had Sharknado, the next obvious step is clearly Batnado

PuNKD Steven

I don't know why but I could swear you watched Suicide Squad..but if not...just go in order because good/best for any of them is a stretch (IMO). After this is Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, Justice League, Shazaam, Aquaman, etc..But I know it depends on votes...

Shayla

I love how he never gets Jesse's name right

N7Prime0622

...My face when you took a bite out of that orange and just...chewed..lol..

Shayla

Also the DC Animated Universe movies are underrated and deserve to be watched, especially Batman: Under the Red Hood and Justice League: Doom

Elli Mendi

Top DC movies of all time? That's really hard because there's so many. I really love the OG batman 1989. The Batman (2022) is really good as well. Wonder Woman is great. Suicide Squad (2021) is underrated. And probably the og Superman

Elli Mendi

Alex your intros are the best! Never change my friend🤟

EManDidIt

Alex if you think 3 hours is long wait until you get to return of the king extended edition (it’s nearly 5 hours)

Chad Higgins

Wonder Woman was pretty good!

Mercy

Best DCEU Movies (IMO) 1. Wonder Woman 2. Man of Steel 3. Justice League 4. BvS 5. Aquaman

Mercy

Top 5 with best at the end: Man of Steel BvS Aquaman Wonder Woman Justice League Snyder Cut

Pistols O'Brien

All the best DC movies are animated besides the Nolan trilogy Best animated ones: Batman under the red hood Justice league flashpoint(dcamu) Batman the killing joke Justice league apokolips war(dcamu) Batman Superman apocalypse

Marquis keel

Wonder Woman and Justice League (do the Snyder Cut, theatrical is ass) are next, and honestly the best of the bunch. Aquaman is pretty good but cliche

Pistols O'Brien

Ultimate Edition is so much better than the theatrical release. This should probably be the last DCU movie you should do

Ian

Let’s go Alex you fucking rule

Matthew

You have to watch the dcamu to see these stories done with better writing

Marquis keel

SAMEEE

Logan Staffer

LETS GO RIGHT ON TIME
