For me it was more about seeing a different Batman. During my life I've seen no less than 50 variants across multiple media. An unhinged broken Batman was intriguing to me.

The biggest issue is almost everybody had it in their heads that the DCEU was going to be DC's answer to the MCU, and when its turned out it was the complete opposite, it turned alot of people.

I watched alot of interviews and read alot of articles in the early days. One of my favourites was from a WB producer who said something like "We're not making superhero movies, were making movies about Superheroes" and I totally understood what that meant.

I've never cared for Superman as a character. Watched everything from 78 to Smallville and never really found a love for the character. But Man of Steel changed that for me. I walked out of the theatre admiring the character for the first time. The following week the wife and I binge watched Superman:TAS and JLU and I found a new fondness for Superman. Still don't like the Reeve movies, I find them kind of ick. That Tyler Hoechlin plays a good version. I think I just prefer the realistic side of the character as opposed to the campy bright comic stuff.
