I'm sure it makes sense somehow.
Squad has villains, MCU has villains, Squad's villains contrasted with MCU's villains... there's something there.
Although there's really no defending the "Olivia Munn isn't asian" angle. Especially considering the character's uh complicated history.
Like I said, I wasn't aware her mother is Vietnamese. My apologies. Enough derailing I suppose.
Back on topic...
Also, here is an interview with Batman v Superman editor David Brenner. He talks about how various scenes are extended in the original 3 hour cut (ignore the 4 hour assembly cut info, that was never going to be released). Some great insight on what an Editor does and what Zack specifically asked of him on MoS and BvS.

Wow, what an awful post.
I don't get this "Ronan is a chump" thing. He was underdeveloped as a character but he beat the shit out of the Guardians (and the Nova Corps) every time they tried to come up with a plan to defeat him, right up until the very end of the movie.

Plot twist: he is just there as a ghost to haunt Batman. What a dick, even in death.
Pretty good interview. Had no clue there was so much more footage in regard to Man of Steel out there.

That's a glorious widow's peak...
It's a pretty big hyperbole, and I say that as someone who thought Ronan was awful. He was still beastly in his direct confrontations with the Guardians. People like to pick on Thanos because it's easy considering he's had such little screen time. In the GotG scene, he clearly made Ronan cower when he finally spoke, and Korath was terrified of him even when they had the infinity stone. I'm more bothered by Thanos' visual design than anything else, mainly just the eyes.
FF4 (well, mostly Reed) has some great villains

This whole ending is so fucking stupid I tell ya.
They could've made Superman likable without killing him.
I think we shouldn't use spoilertags for BvS in here now.

If we're being honest, the 1-5 villains worth a damn apply to those 4 too.

Ronan, Joker, Doom, Zod who cares.
Nolan Bane>>>>>>>all.

Superman, yeah. His rogue's gallery isn't that hot unless you start roping in JL and universe-tier threats like Darkseid into it. Without them, it''s basically
-Luthor
-Metallo
-Brainiac
And that's about it, as far as big repeat names goes. And Metallo is kind of stretching it.
For Bats, though, Joker, Penguin, Ivy, Catwoman (technically), Bane, Scarecrow... there's a ton. Not as familiar with Spidey, but he's got a similar count. And Flash has the Rogues, which pretty much automatically puts him in the upper ranks.
I'd throw Zod there since starred in 2 movies.
Bizarro is strange, but think pretty well known.
Mongul
For a certain audience, Mister Mxyzptlk

Mongul is kind of a stretch, imo. Bizarro barely counts as a rogue. Mr. Mxyzptlk is more a piece of trivia than anything else.
Zod I'll grant you.
Superman has a lot of good B-tier villains, ones that wouldn't ever be in a movie by themselves. I'm talking about villains like Parasite, Titano, Bizarro, Toyman, etc.
Mongul could be a movie villain though. That'd be sick as hell
Marry me.

He sneaks up to Bruce Wayne and whispers "Martha" in his ear.

I agree with you. He's only threatening because TDKR decided to forget how basic things like "money" and "common sense" work.
Apparently everyone is getting jacked, but seems folks noticed a certain word Jason used... think first movie would be too soon to introduce it
Guess everyone is working out
and here I am in my underwear playing The Last Of Us.

Lucky. All WB gives me is early passes to Barbershop: The Next Cut.
I got those too. Thought about going but it'd be pretty weird if I was the only white guy there, which is a real possibility.

Someone talked about it yesterday. Anything to expect?
Thanks for posting that interview. I learned a little bit more about what an editor does. I feel that three hour cut is going to be something different after reading this. All the work that went into this film seems like it warrants a longer cut than what we currently have.
Also, nice to know that Snyder used to be a painter before he became a director! He has like three books worth of drawings for BvS alone. I wish I could see it. All of it makes sense now.
It's fine dude, we don't bite.

Don't know what to expect. The most massive info dump we got was out of an investor's call. Now that BvS has probably gotten most of it's Box Office, they can make any announcement they want to without worrying about it affecting BvS.
I don't think we'll hear anything concrete until SDCC.
Oh snap. Hopefully they trot out Snyder wearing a collar and leash, maybe a cone of shame for good measure.

Lol, I know, but it doesn't make the social anxiety any easier. I already worry about strangers judging me behind my back!

Regarding the work out pictures, it's more on the muscle suits but I'd prefer both Superman and Batman slimming down from their BvS size.

Wrong. We need to go bigger.
Uh..you forgot Doomsday.
He probably even beats Luthor in terms of popularity.
Mongul is easily a Superman villain, he started out as a Superman villain before he branched off to Justice League/Green Lantern stuff.
Supes has quite a few villains who should be A-list:
Maxima, Manchester Black, Preus, Gog, Hank Henshaw, Ultra Humanite, Dominus, Silver Banshee
Ezra Miller got a lot bigger than he used to be.
