Batman v Superman: By The Minute

Enjoy a special episode from The Snyder Minute, with Stephen fresh from the 'Full Circle' event hosted by Zack Snyder and friends, with screenings of Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Zack Snyder's Justice League... as it was finally meant to be seen.

 

We break down the event, surprise insights, and the biggest takeaways, along with a bonus interview with Snyder himself confirming, once again, that our minute-by-minute analysis isn't entirely ridiculous.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Clark rings Bruce's bell before escorting him to the washroom.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Bruce unleashes his armored anger on a target in absolute agony. For most of the minute, anyway.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Bruce introduces Clark to some of his newest gadgets... and a fear unlike any he's ever known.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Bruce Wayne does his best impression of a thunderbolt, before turning off the Bat Signal the hard way. So why is he still smiling...?

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Clark and Bruce deliver on the movie's title as they collide in full force. For Clark, the encounter is a plea for peace and teamwork to prevent a personal tragedy. For Bruce, it's the culmination of a lifelong mission built on one tragedy after another. Superman can finally see... but Bruce isn't listening. Cue the fireworks.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, the death of Victor Stone is twisted into something even more tragic, judging by the horrifying 'rebirth' unleashed by his father. Diana has obviously seen enough, but Lois Lane knows she must head into the heart of the storm, and has the movie's most powerful ally to help her get there.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, a mysterious Aquaman emerges from the depths, as the remains of Victor Stone promise something much, much darker.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, a red streak appears to give Diana a glimpse of the future Justice League. Or is it the past?

The first season of Amazon's The Lord of The Rings: The Rings of Power has ended... so how did this show, which had nothing to do with Zack Snyder, still end up in the exact same storm of bad criticism, online trolling, and overlooked storytelling?

Whether you love the show (like us) or were disappointed, there's no question: Batman v Superman fans should defend Rings of Power for all the same reasons as Zack Snyder's controversial team-up.

In this minute of Batman v Superman, a dark decision distracts from Diana's collection of reality-breaking comic books, and secret hints at DC's shared movie universe (before it even technically existed).

In this minute of Batman v Superman, the city of Metropolis watches as the Kryptonian crash site starts going haywire (and Diana couldn't care less).

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Clark is forced to witness Lex Luthor's victory lap (as we're forced to witness Martha held captive).

In this minute of Batman v Superman, a god bends to Lex Luthor's will... as Martha's voice calls out to Clark (just not the one you would expect).

In this minute of Batman v Superman, Lex finally reveals his master plan to turn God against Man. But one mystery remains: whatever happened to Martha Luthor?
