If Lex Luthor really does manage to convince everyone that Superman is evil, this could have some very interesting effects on not only the plot of this film, but other potential films surrounding it in the same universe as well, and it could be an interesting move by the writers.
It could also shed some light on the character of Superman himself, as obviously Lex Luthor would need to use some more private information in order to accomplish his task, and he’ll need to reveal those details to people interested in hearing about Superman.
With all this in mind, “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” could be a much more interesting installment into this (mixed) universe than we’re suspecting, and it could have some major implications for the characters involved
It would be interesting to see if the film sets things up for any sequels as well, as it looks like it could be the type of production that fans will want to see even more of, and the producers could make a winning move by focusing on it more actively and releasing even more installments if this one proves successful. And by all accounts, it has the potential to do that right now, looking at all the responses from fans so far.
