Everyone is trying to explain why or why not, Superman was not in the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight movies, while also trying to explain why Nolan's Batman doesn't exist in Superman's world.
If anyone actually paid attention to what Christopher Nolan was saying during his tenure over Batman in his Dark Knight trilogy, he said over and over again, how these is not your typical superhero/vigilante films. That this was just his world, and his alone. Thus no other hero characters were showing up.
And along those lines, everyone was portrayed pretty much as close to normal as possible.
Now David Goyer is dropping sound bites (which is good for the marketing campaign to make any kind of noise you can) that Nolan's Batman existed only in his films, while the Dark Knight does not exist in Superman's Man of Steel.
SPOILER:
But the small sound bite that might catch folks ears/eyes, is that he did say that Wayne Industries, Bruce Wayne, Lex Luthor, S.T.A.R. Labs and other meta-humans do exist in the world of Man of Steel.
There's also mention of Cyborg, when STAR labs name is dropped, but no word on what, or anything will come of that.
END SPOILER
Of course these things have to be addressed because everyone is wondering when DC/WB is going to do The Avengers thing and create their Justice League movie.
Of course they are. They've gone through enough writers and scripts over the last few years, so it's just a matter of time when they'll feel confident enough to bring it all together.
Marvel got out of the gate first with their group ensemble, and hired themselves an excellent group ensemble kind of guy in Joss Whedon.
Rumors are that David Goyer is writing the latest rendition of a Justice League script, but we'll see what happens when all is said and done.
But if you take what's been said literally, then this rules out a Joseph Gordon-Levitt roll-over into the WB Justice League films. Which I think would have been a wonderful addition to the process, since WB is looking to actually reboot the Batman movie franchise all over again. What a waste.
There will, I'm sure, be more silly questions for the media to spread about, so stay tuned.
