8 Movies Everyone Remembers For One Terrible Scene

8. Martha! - Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice

Probably best to get this one out of the way early, right?

For all the good that Zack Snyder managed to achieve when committing his version of The Caped Crusader to the big screen, bringing us a brooding and broken Bruce Wayne who had been pushed to his limit, the record will always show that Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice gave us one of the most laughable moments of reconciliation ever to grace cinemas.

As The Dark Knight finally finds himself in a position to rid the globe of the Kryptonian terror that is Superman, standing over The Man of Steel with a kryptonite-tipped spear, Kal-El explains that they need to "save Martha" with his escaping breaths. Confused and taken aback, Ben Affleck's roars of "WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME?!" have become the stuff of movie legend, with his rapid change of heart soon after leaving most in attendance chuckling out of place.

BVS is far from a perfect feature from start to finish, but the parts that hit were unfortunately massively overshadowed by ill-judged beats like the one that set Wayne and Clark Kent on a collision course with Doomsday.
