The concept Marvel started with Iron Man in 2008 which is now knows as Cinematic Universe was so successful that the big competitor DC could not ignore it any longer: Entertaining the world with several characters with single and combined appearances in live-action movies. The fanbase of the heroes popular for decades were on board for sure but Marvel certainly did not expect to wrap the rest of the mainstream audience around their finger that easy. The only question was: What about DC Comics? The very same publisher who has at the very least two iconic comic heroes: Superman and Batman. For a long time, it seemed as if the DC people simply did not get how huge that whole universe thing was. Instead, Christopher Nolan got to do his own (and veery successful) Batman thing and Zack Snyder was doing the same with Man of Steel which tells the origin story of the very popular Superman character.

When DC announced numerous movies, that were obviously supposed to copy the Marvel concept, after Man of Steel, it seemed as if DC now wanted a piece of the pie as well. Since Nolan's Batman trilogy was not supposed to be part of the DC universe, a new interpretation of the character including a new actor was required again. When it got out that Ben Affleck was supposed to be that new actor, both the fans and neutral audiences were sceptical. Back in 2004, Affleck screwed up the Marvel character Daredevil so badly that a sequel was never an option. Also, that a duel between Batman and Superman was intended to be the plot of the first movie was considered an overhasty decision by DC and the producing studio Warner Bros. It did not seem to make any sense especially since there was not supposed to be - yes, one might have gotten annoyed by Kevin Feige, the CEO of Marvel, and his big boss attitude regarding the content - a strict observation of its content.

With Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, we now have a movie built on the arrival and the destruction caused by Superman in Man of Steel. As for its style, it is quite obvious that the story is to be continued. DC wants to be considered a dark, sinister and serious comic universe - as opposed to the Marvel universe which is often considered a colorful and very mainstream universe. That definately works but the superheroes fighting each other until they eventually team up concept is not exactly new. For instance, the X-Men do that as well. And considering that BvS has to introduce the new Batman (who is quite well played by a slightly grey Affleck by the way) on the one hand but create a conflict with Superman and introduce Wonder Woman in order to set the ground rules for the first Justice League movie AND also make sure that the enemyship becomes an allience on the other hand, BvS seems to contain too much story but also too little. The critics were not exactly enthusiastic and the box office result could have been better as well. With a budget of approx. $250 million, $330 million were made. Worldwide, the number went up to $873 million. The movie broke even and then some, yes, but just to compare: Nolan's The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises made more than a billion worldwide. An amount which was supposed to be reached for the clash of the titans as well, no doubt. Being beaten by the R-Rated fun flick Deadpool ($363 mill.) and - probably even worse - by the other "Good againt Evil" flick The First Avenger: Civil War ($407 mill. in the US, $1.15 bill. worldwide) - both released by Marvel - did not exactly please the Warner bosses, that is for sure.

Before its theatrical release, Warner Bros. spread the word that there would be an Ultimate Edition on Blu-ray which contains an Extended Cut with 30 more minutes of footage. Zack Snyder announced that this Extended Cut was his director's cut. And that seems plausible because the new footage does not look like footage put in afterwards to make a few more bucks with a longer version. On the contrary, some of that footage is quite a loss for the Theatrical Version that needed to be removed for its theatrical release to not push it because the Theatrical Version still runs approx. 2 1/2 hours. As one can see in the following comparison, the Extended Version is definately the better version. But there is a downside as well: Narrativewise, the often criticized structure of the movie gets worse. Due to a lot extended footage during the first half, the actual story regarding Batman vs. Superman starts with the Capitol scene after almost 90 minutes. And as also criticized quite often, there is not enough time for the duel anymore before they team up to fight Doomsday in the big finale. Compared to the rest, the beginning is still too long but the warming phase is more satisfying and explained more reasonable in the Extended Cut . The scheme against Superman and Clark Kent's investigation were just too short in the Theatrical Version. Subsequent things such as the short, rather mysterious introduction of Steppenwolf, which is obviously supposed to point to the Justice League, or the reversed censorings which got the Extended Cut the R-Rating (which it deserves by the way) but without making it an incredibly brutal movie, make the result much more appealing.

Compared are the Theatrical Version (PG-13) and the Extended Cut (R-Rated) (both available on the US Blu-ray by Warner Bros.).

The Extended Cut is 1793.62 sec resp. approx. 29 min 54 sec longer than the Theatrical Version.

The beginning of the "parents scene" is introduces with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in the theatrical version whilethe EC adds a Ultimate Edition beneath it.

Extended Scene
0:02:34: Close-up of Martha Wayne looking startled.
3.64 sec

Extended Scene
0:08:27: Bruce encounters a group of kindergarten kids. The teacher tells them to stick together. Bruce pushes a little girl to the rest of the group and keeps walking.
17.64 sec

Alternate Footage
0:11:27: Lois Lane's first appearance is different. In the Theatrical Version, it is rather mysterious while it is more illustrative in the Extended Cut.

Theatrical Version: A car drives up and two hooded characters are being lead to a base rather harshly.

Extended Cut: The replacement photographer (aka CIA agent) Jimmy Olsen gets a handed a coke by a native with the information that the wind is a bad sign that means "blood in heaven". A car drives up and Lois gets out. Jimmy stands in front of her and asks how her trip was and says it was unusual that the Warlord intended to give an interview because he had never done it before. Lois explains his predecessor had barely spoken she liked him (for it?). A car with the Warlord's goons drives up. They ask whether or not Lois and Jimmy have any technical devices on them and Lois says her contact confirmed taking pictures was allowed. The jeep drives off, Lois and Jimmy have a hood over their heads so they can't see where they are going.
60.96 sec

Extended Scene
0:13:11: When Lois asks the General if he was a terrorist, the Extended Cut sticks with Lois until the end of the question ("General?") while the Extended Cut cuts to the Warlord.
0.64 sec

Extended Scene with Alternate Footage
0:13:18: This sequence is mostly identical but there are a few extended scenes every now and then - probably to save some time. After KGBeast destroys his equipment and finds the GPS tracker, Jimmy is being made as a spy. In between, there is additional footage in the Extended Cut. During the interview, Lois says the US government had acted neutrally in their country but the General responds that nobody ever acted neutrally. When the GPS tracker is found in Jimmy's stuff, the General accuses Lois of having lead the CIA to them at first. Being completely surprised about that development, Lois denies everything and explains Jimmy was just a photographer. When Jimmy speaks to the General in his language, he says there were solutions and he had been sent to make him an offer. His death is both versions.
Extended Cut 41.88 sec longer

Additional Scene
0:15:02: The Extended Cut contains an infrared shot of a drone on which one can see Jimmy hit the ground while surrounded by other people. At CIA headquarters, the order to neutralize all drones is given but Python, the leader of a mobile strike force, is against it and intends to get out the civilians first. For that reason, he disobeys his order.
28.96 sec

Extended Scene with Alternate Footage
0:16:00: When KGBeast starts shooting at the General's goons, the Extended Cut is longer. The first goon gets hit bloodily (in the Theatrical Version, he already got hit and goes down with no blood being shed) and another one on the rooftop gets shot twice. Again, blood is spilled.
Extended Cut 2.28 sec longer

Extended Scene with Alternate Footage
0:16:10: When the mercenaries take out the goons, this happens much faster in the Theatrical Version. Here, the unbloody killings are sometimes identical, sometimes a few frames shorter. In the Extended Cut, there is additional cg blood - sometimes quite obvious, sometimes not so much. A mercenary tosses a hand grenade in a tank and when the mercenaries are already going through the gate and hopping on their bikes in the Theatrical Version, the Extended Cut shows some of the real action. Not only is that definately on the level of an R-Rating but it also explains why Superman becomes the main suspect later on because KGBeast burns the body with a flamethrower (which could also be done by Superman's laser coming out of his eyes). In the meantime, the drone is headed for the base and passes Python's strike force who expresses his opinion about that with his middle finger.
Extended Cut 33.8 sec longer

Theatrical Version	Extended Cut

Alternate Footage
0:17:04: Superman's appearance is entirely different. While the Theatrical Version keeps showing the mercenaries getting away on their bikes and the camera pans to the sky at which point we see Superman on his way to the ground, the Extended Cut goes on with the previously started drone subplot. The drone is still targeting the base and the shoot order is being executed. But the missile does not get very far because it gets destroyed while still on its way. Same goes for the drone a few seconds later. KGBeast witnesses the entire thing from the distance and the CIA agent wants to know how both the drone and the missile had gotten destroyed.

Additional Scene
0:17:56: Extended shot of Lois looking at the whole the General got pushed through by Superman. Then Python's strike force on their way to the base. They get to see a scene of destruction. Being in shock, several native woman are besieging them when they discover the torched bodies inside the facility which had been burned beyond recognition by KGBeast. Lois finds a book with a slug in it.
64.8 sec

Alternate Dialog
0:19:17: During Kahina Ziri's hearing in front of the senate, she mentions the fire that burned the soldiers in the Extended Cut. Since this is not in the Theatrical Version, her comment differs.

Theatrical Version: "He came down, so many dead."
Extended Cut: "He came down, then came fire."
no difference

Additional Scene
0:19:56: When the cops are called to the human trafficker's hideout with Batman being there resp. he marks the trafficker and leaves, that scene pops up a little earlier in the Extended Cut. Also, there is some additional footage. One gets to see the two cops watching the game of Gotham's football team on a portable TV. They only leave reluctantly.
45.08 sec

Extended Scene
0:22:05: More footage of the young cop going up the stairs to see where the noises come from.
5.76 sec

Alternate Footage
0:23:36: The close-up of the beaten-up human trafficker with the branding is also different. In the Theatrical Version, the blood has been darkened digitally while it looks as red as it is supposed to in the Extended Cut.

Extended Cut 15.16 sec longer

Alternate Footage
0:33:43: When Clark is making fried eggs, a TV report catches his attention. This is entirely different in either of the versions and so is the position of the scene after the conversation Bruce and Alfred have in the Theatrical Version. In the Extended Cut, this scene follows Lex's presentation of the cryptonite he found.

Theatrical Version: Here, Clark watches a news report about the Batman branding on the human trafficker. It is being explained that a branding like that is a death warrent in jail. The reason to handle it like this is quite obvious: The human trafficker's death behind bars will not be mentioned with a single word.

Extended Cut: Here, we see an interview with Kahina Ziri who wants to know from Superman why her family had to die and how he decided which life is important and which is not.
Extended Cut 2.96 sec longer

3.8 sec

Extended Scene
0:35:41: Also superfluous: When Perry White instructs Clark to make a report about football, he tells him to go to Gotham in the Extended Cut. HE also tells him to be careful that nobody would steal his lunch money. When the report about the smeared Superman statue is on TV, the shot of contemplative Clark is a little longer and so is the shot of Lois looking at him.
10.16 sec

Additional Scene
0:36:40: Clark has arrived in Gotham to meet with Kahina Ziri but neighbors tell him she had left town. They also tell him to watch out for that dark avenger that goes around at night and scares those who deserve it.

Someone explicitely demanded Clark would be there to write a story about it. Perry then adds someone had a heart for nerds (like Clark).

1.52 sec

Additional Scene
0:55:50: There are two new and one extended scene in this sequence. At first, Clark calls his mother Martha and asks why his dad had never left Kansas. She explains he dad thought he did not have to travel because he had already arrived at his destination. Clark was hoping for a simpler explanation but Martha says it was never simple.

A new scene with Lois and Jent Klyburn (played by Jena Malone and completely missing in the Theatrical Version) follows. Jent can tell Lois more about the slug. She says it was from a source who probably would not like to talk about it. Lois asks if the rebels were soe kind of new guinea pigs for a new kind of ammo and Jenet says Lois was a good reporter because that could actually surprise her.

Also new is Clark in front of a computer at the Daily Planet. Clark is reading several articles about the Batman branding which illustrates some kind of death warrant (the Theatrical Version dealt with that rather quickly in a TV report). The beginning of the scene with the human trafficker who is being relocated to another block and gets into contact with other inmates is also exclusive footage. He is very scared that he gets shanked but the guards could not care less.
135.74 sec

Extended Cut 0.08 Sec. longer

Alternate Footage
1:07:18: Censored quite smart actually. When Batman kicks the soldier down the road, the Theatrical Version makes it look like he simply lost his balance. In the Extended Cut however, one gets to see that Batman fires off a shot and hits the soldier in the abdomen. There is no implication whatsoever in the Theatrical Version because the muzzle flashes has been removed from the Theatrical Version and so has the shooting noise.

She then speaks to Jenet on the phone who says the wheel chair was made out of the same material as the mysterious slugs and the wheel chair had also been built by Lex. On top of that, Lois explains Superman could not have seen it due to the special kind of metal.
