Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice – one of the most highly anticipated superhero movies of 2016 - will present to us two of the most popular superheroes up against each other. It's a fight rightly described by Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor in the second official trailer as "˜God versus Man' - on one side is a Kryptonian with enormous superpowers and on the other side is a human being without any superpowers at all and with technology and intelligence as the key resources.
It's not a fair fight if you are too practical but obviously most of us love to believe it's fair and it's gonna be a tough one. That's the point with comic books and comic adaptations - they have survived over the years because we have the tendency to imagine something which is apparently impossible.
Now, there's one actor who's slammed the concept recently in an interview and he's done that out of practical thinking. Ash Williams of Evil Dead series – Bruce Campbell - is the one who uttered something that will hurt Batman fans REALLY, REALLY BAD (as it did to me)! While talking to LA Times, the 57-year-old actor stated:
"Batman fighting Superman? To me that's, sorry Warner Bros., it's just a mistake. Because most fans are going to go, "Baloney, Superman, in his sleep."
That's not all! Hit 2 to check out what more he has said about Batman fighting Superman!
Punch Ben Affleck In The Face, You're Done!
When Campbell made that comment, the interviewer reminded him that the Caped Crusader has special armor for the fight against the Kryptonian superhero. That provoked the actor to utter further annoying words (from a Batman fan's perspective)! Here's what he added:
"Batman does? Well he's gonna need it — he's fighting Superman! His face is exposed. Punch Ben Affleck in the face, you're done. Walk away. What's for lunch?"
His Ash Vs. Evil Dead co-star Lucy Lawless was sitting by his side in the interview and following Campbell's statement, there occurred a funny conversation between the two. Check out the conversation below:
Lawless: He's like, "No no not the face, not the face!"
Campbell: Hey, nice try. I'm not buying what they're selling. Because OK, Kryptonite, well, who's carrying around Kryptonite? Only Lex Luthor.
Lawless: Ah, Batman's suit, hello.
Campbell: Batman's suit is made out of Kryptonite?
Lawless: Probably.
Campbell: What a crock. Where's he gonna get it, on the Internet?
Lawless: You can get anything on the Internet. Kryptonite underpants.
Hit 3 to learn how Suicide Squad has defeated Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice!
Suicide Squad Beats Batman V Superman!
David Ayer's "˜Bad versus Evil' is more popular than Zack Snyder's "˜God versus Man'! Neither has been released, but it's the comparison between the popularity of their Comic-Con trailers that urges such a statement. While the Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer has managed around 35.88 million views (at the time of writing) on YouTube, the one of Suicide Squad has bagged more than 37.74 million views.
An interesting fact is that the trailer of Suicide Squad was officially launched two days after the launch of Batman v Superman trailer. It must be said that this is a comparison between the second official trailer of the Zack Snyder venture and the very first one of the David Ayer venture.
However, it is still surprising that a movie based on a team of supervillains has managed to move ahead of the one that presents the two most popular superheroes against each other. In my opinion, the debut of Harley Quinn and the return of The Joker in the cinematic universe have helped Suicide Squad in bagging around a couple of million more views than its forerunner.
