Why so CRYPTIC?

Why couldn't The Flash make sense
now
?
It seemed like an important message where there shouldn't be any screwing around making Bruce guess who he is talking about.
And the Martha scene is cryptica because, again, Batman has no idea who he is talking about. Just spill the beans.

Well a cryptic message from the future is a common trope. I think it makes it more fun to see what Flash is talking about fulfilled in a movie further down the line.
Another cryptic thing was Lex Luthor talking about Darkseid and boom boxes. Anyone who doesn't know the comics will have no idea he was talking about. But that will all be given context in Justice League.
The movie set a lot of stuff up.
Obviously Superman was under duress and physically restricted when he spoke, so you can't hold it against him for not being perfectly clear.

I think being perfectly clear would be quite easy. "Martha Kent, save her" or "Stop Lex Luthor". There is a major "lame" factor with him just saying "Martha".

Artistic license, it had a point to get across. Don't take it that literally about how/what he should have said.

.'for someone that supposedly doesnt like it, you are strangely obsessed with it still. that is fascinating."
Maybe if you took into account what OP said before taking him to task by passive aggressively engaging in semantics in a deliberate attempt to insult him. Just an observation. -

Nah, I think I'll speak exactly how I feel like speaking, thank you. You don't get to tell me who to respond to. You have a problem with what I said in agreement with someone else regarding a director who goes the extra mile to insult our intelligence and isn't nearly as deep as he thinks he is, too bad. Don't be a pretentious asshat and try to tell people who to respond to and how to do so. Step down from that high horse of yours. Disagreeing on here is one thing. Trying to tell people what to say and how to say it? Completely different matter.
Just an observation.

Because they have no idea what they are doing so they try to confuse the audience by pretending to have a plan.
Intelligent people react like this :
"This sh!t makes no sense, also it badly affects the pacing of the movie".
The simpletons this movie was intended for react like this :
"You don't get it because you are not a fan and it's too deep for you". -

Jay Oliva (DC artist and storyboard artist)
"And remember, when Flash goes back in time, he tells him you were right about him. He doesnt say exactly who him is. The average audience member, and even Bruce Wayne, is going to think that hes right about Superman, when in fact hes referring to someone else"
the HIM isn't Superman.
IMDB taught me: cynicism is praised. optimism must be stamped out wherever it can be found.
