Snyder is far more pretentious than Nolan
At least Nolan knows how to sort of explore these ideas. Snyders dumb ass lacks a clue at what they even are or how to even tell a coherent story
Snyder is the clown whose always claiming his movies were "too complex" and audiences "missed the imagery". Nolans never had to do that. And Nolan is pretentious. Just not Snyder level. -

I don't even think it was trying to be a 'cinematic masterpiece', Snyder doesn't really appear to suffer from Nolan's pretentiousness.
Heh heh heh. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Pffftttahhahahahahahahaha! HA HA HAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ha haaaaaaaah! -

For me, the Nostalgia Critic worded it perfectly in his review alongside AngryJoe of Batman v Superman;
"This movie is trying to be; Marvel, The Dark Knight, Wonder Woman, Justice League, The Death of Superman AND Batman v Superman. When Batman V Superman would've been more than enough"
If they had kept it at Batman V Superman, with a hint of WW and JL, this film would be getting far more praise as a film. -

The truth justice and the American way, is what would make this character interesting. It's been done before but, the in this day and ago, with governments acting in ways that may not be conducive to protecting our freedom and privacy, would have made for interesting conflict. What we got instead , was moping

THe biggest reason for me was that Lex kidnapped Superman's mother to get him to fight, especially after the Ultimate Edition. All Lex needed to do was tell Superman that Batman is trying to kill him, maybe even show him the security footage, and would release Doomsday after seeing Superman winning and refusing to kill him.

Simple. It was set in the "Man of Steel" universe and was made by the same people who created that turd.
Same reason Steve Martin's "Pink Panther 2" failed. Reward people for creating a turd and they'll give you a bigger turd. -

The movie had the momentum from the previous Batman trilogy and the hype from the marketing. It should have dared to be more than an action movie.
Despite the aftermath of first movie, only Batman is preparing to attack and defeat a godlike entity. Superman tries to help us rebuild, despite being mistrust and shamed in the media as a tyrant. Humanity comes to terms that it is not alone in the Universe and that it knows even less about life on Earth than before. Meanwhile evil-doers have been manipulating events so that Batman and Superman must eventually engage; the end-game is to secure their mutual destruction or unilateral shaming into exile, paving the way for global domination or destruction.
These are things I would have loved to see.
