Just saw the Ultimate Edition and I'm confused.
So Batman is getting the letters from crazy bombchair dude. Including letter that shows capitol on fire.
Then capitol explodes.
Gets letter from bomb guy that says "You let your family die."
Then for some reason Batman automatically goes into 'must kill superman' mode.
Uh... why? Like nothing in the letters or anything would make him think Supes was responsible.

He's the World's Greatest Detective, he deduced that he must do battle to advance the plot.
>>84322827
So how did Lois know to get the spear?
She wasn't part of any conversation about Doomsday being kryptonian.
>>84322851
She's won a Pulitzer you know, she figured it out with her mind too.
>>84322851
Last she knew, Clark went to investigate what was up with Luthor at the Kryptonian ship. Next thing she knows downtown area is getting blown up. She can put two and two together, despite being a woman, you know.
>>84322860
But... but how did Lex know Clark Kent was Superman?
>>84322882
That one is obvious.
>>84322882
Anon, you do know that Superman's "clever disguise" is just a simple pair of glasses, right?
>>84322895
Lex isn't a detective or reporter.
>>84322898
It's not just that. Cavil is garbage and doesn't play a good Clark.
Clark has a completely different way of moving and speaking than Superman.
That they have the same hair and eyebrows is irrelevant, in a world with Superman a lot of men would have a 'Superman haircut'
>>84322873
Nether of those things have to do with her knowing where the spear is and that she needs to retrieve it.
>>84322572
>Then for some reason Batman automatically goes into 'must kill superman' mode
remember literally the second scene "superman is introduced to the world"? superman is a walking nuke, that superman is nice now doesn't mean he'll always stay nice and the damage that he could do outweights the good he has done so far, even saving earth from other kryptonians.
>>84322572
As far as he can tell, someone he knew just blew himself up because of "what Superman did" in Metropolis. Multiply that by the anger he feels seeing these messages that just restate what he already thinks. He's just really pissed off now.
>>84322958
>her knowing where the spear
She was the one who got rid of it in the first place, retard.
>and that she needs to retrieve it.
You don't need to be a rocket scientist to make the connection between the Kryptonian ship and whatever Clark was fighting. Trying to retrieve it, in case it might prove useful, is entirely sound decision.
Why does Snyder think Superman is Dr. Manhattan?
Why are MoS and BvS just Watchmen fanfics?
>>84322572
No, Lex intercepted the checks and then sent them back, he also put a bomb in the chair without the guy knowing.
>>84323637
Objectivism is a hell of a drug
>>84322572
Bruce never saw the letters. HR was holding onto them and didn't think that Bruce needed to see them until he exploded the Capitol.
>>84322882
Same way he found a photo of Wondy from the Great War, and tapped into convenience store surveillance video (which are almost never put on any kind of network, even for chains like 7-11) and, most importantly, tapped into the system of what is likely a major LexCorp competitor, Star Labs ...
>>84322898
You don't say?
>>84322827
Bruce is petty, more petty than even in canon and cartoons. He'd ALREADY decided to do battle even before this scene.
Because Plot Device
>>84324159
>>84324159
I never understood why noone seems to grasp this. It's... obvious.
>>84322882
>>84326880
You mean by having cameras everywhere? That was explained, but I guess everything is a plot device.
Why did Lois think that having Perry White run a last-minute print exposing Luthor's shady dealings in Africa was a more effective way to alert Superman that Luthor is responsible for framing him than... you know... telling Superman about it?
>>84323637
He tries to show that Superman is the opposite of Dr. Manhattan. I think that's cool.
>>84322572
That was a final trigger to Bruce telling him " Superman doesnt belong here
>>84322851
She saw the activity at the ship and next thing she knows a giant monster is rampaging around that Batman is leading back to the dock. She's pretty smart you know.
>>84322882
You see Lexcorp truck in Smallville in Man of Steel and a satellite too. He's pretty resourceful.
>>84327398
Well it took her screams of peril to call him finally. She might have tried just yelling for him before who knows. But exposing Luthor to everyone is as important as telling Clark.
>>84327538
You really think this is going to stop the idiots from making up the same "problems"? It's always the same people who get wrecked time and time again, yet they never admit they were wrong.
Instead it's "look at all these problems that don't really exist!" And then "haha you need paragraphs to explain this movie that means I'm right!"
>>84322572
It triggered him about his own parents death, also batman was already super pissed about that little girl losing her mother during the fight between zod and superman.
How did Lois know Clark couldn't see through lead?
Hell, how did Lex know?

Anon learned a new word in Summer Classes and wanted to apply it. Couple more sessions and he may employ it correctly.
