If there's one thing us comic book fans are probably never going to stop arguing about, it's who should win in a fight between Batman and Superman. Next year's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is obviously going to address that in a live-action setting for the first time, and Total Film were quick to ask Zack Snyder how exactly he's going about handling their conflict. Unsurprisingly, the filmmaker pointed out the same thing that many other fans do when talking about these two heroes going to war; Batman has the advantage. "The advantage that Batman has is the goodness of Superman," he explained. "The compliance to fair lay that Superman has...Batman knows how to exploit Superman." In other words, the Dark Knight is gonna be fighting dirty!
Of course, part of his strategy includes donning an armoured suit inspired by Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. Shockingly, the magazine reveals that the costume - which we've on display at various Comic-Cons this year - is 100% CGI in Batman v Superman, and Ben Affleck described donning a mo-cap suit for those scenes as, "the most humiliating, ridiculous thing in the world. You can move freely, and they put [the suit] on digitally. It’s a little bit more humiliating to wear, but it’s easier for the digital effects guys. You can see who the priority is..." he joked.
