15 Predictions For 2016 Movies That Everybody Got Wrong
1. Batman V Superman Is Secretly Batman V - BVS: Dawn Of Justice
This one was just epic. A super fan of Chris Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy theorised this one, which gets marks for sheer creativity. In his detailed essay he speculated Dawn Of Justice was actually the fifth entry in The Dark Knight series, since it was following Nolan’s trilogy and Man Of Steel.
That's why it was Batman V Superman, instead of Vs. But wait, there’s more! He absorbed the “Joker is Robin” theory, stating that Joseph Gordon Levitt’s Robin had turned into the master criminal since the end of The Dark Knight Rises. He also believed Ben Affleck’s Batman wasn’t Bruce Wayne at all, but Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke.
Wilson was only looking after the Batman mantle, but then Christian Bale (?!) would return in the climax to resume his duties when he learns The Joker’s identity. Amazingly it turned out the final movie had none of this, and that Bale – who allegedly turned down $50 million to return – is nowhere to be seen.
