25 WTF Moments In Batman V Superman

15. Seriously, What€™s With The Wizard Of Oz References?

MGM
Easter Eggs were always inevitable, and the film is soaked in fan-baiting moments, both from key source material The Dark Knight Returns and the wider DC comics universe, but to have three Wizard Of Oz references just seems like over-kill. It's not even like there's any over-riding link between the two films: perhaps if they'd actually gone with Luthor's public persona being a disguise (as per the wizard) the repeated references might have made sense. But as it was, three separate incidences just made it feel like an in-joke nobody at all was privy to.
