Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice [Ultimate Fan Edit]

[schizopolis23]

I uploaded my fan edit of BvS Ultimate Edition. Only two major fixes/changes: 1) Martha scene and 2) Knightmare sequences moved. Below are my notes. PM me, if you need the link.

Runtime: 3hr 00mins 
Notes:

• Removed dream scene of Bruce Wayne visiting Martha Wayne's grave and replaced it with the the first part of the Knightmare sequence. In the previous scene, Lex Luthor talks about his father's angels and demons painting and that it should be upside down. Shot of the painting, cut to black, then cut to the Batman Knightmare sequence. Batman gets apprehended by Superman's soldiers, then gets punched by the parademon, cut to Bruce Wayne waking up in his bedroom. I credit another fan editor (S_MofS on reddit) that also moved the Knightmare sequence earlier to the 43 minute mark and IMO it really drives the narrative and fixes a pacing issue I've always had.
  
  
• After Bruce recovers his data drive from Diana, he starts decrypting it, cut to black, then cut to part two of the Knightmare sequence: Batman in chains inside a bunker and evil Superman arrives. Bruce wakes up in a dream within a dream and receives a message from the Flash, which infers that Bruce's nightmares were actually a vision of an apocalyptic future shown to him by the Flash from that future.
  
  
• Martha scene: Removed the line "You're letting him kill Martha". Removed Batman's first reaction. Added shot of Martha Wayne's face (from the opening credits in the Ultimate Edition) right before the Wayne death flashback montage. Hopefully, less cringey scene. My problem was always with the execution of the scene, not the concept. That’s why I included the shot of Martha Wayne’s face looking at Chill. The eye-lines of Martha and Bruce almost match as he’s aiming the spear. So the notion that he is about to become the monster that killed his parents is there visually.
  
  
• Removed scene of SWAT team surrounding Lex Luthor with the Steppenwolf hologram. Preserved the theatrical version of the Trinity shot fading to black, cutting to a lock of Lex's hair falling on his shoe in prison.
  
  
• Removed Martha Kent's lines of "I forgot my checkbook", etc. from the funeral scene.
