But you didn't have to pay to see BTAS in its first run. Knowing who the villain is in a superhero movie is like knowing the opponent in a boxing match or a UFC fight. The marquee reads Superman vs. General Zod, you're gonna see Superman against Zod. The marquee reads Spider-Man vs. Dr. Octopus, it's Spidey against Doc Ock. But this is like advertising "Batman versus mystery opponent" or "Batman versus opponent to be determined." I'm sitting here in a $17 seat with a $6 cup of Coca-Cola in my hand ready to see Batman take on the Penguin and it's actually the Riddler who's behind it all. The ringer might be okay if I knew who he was, but the film intentionally downplayed the Riddler so that it would come as a surprise when he was outed as the culprit. It's an ambitious new approach, and I'll give them credit for that, but most twist revelations are dull for that very reason described. It's always the quiet butler or the friendly old man; the last character you'd suspect. Hell, it might even be Clock King just because nobody would guess that a dark horse like him would make it into a live action Batman movie. --- And he smiled as he said, with a twinkle in his eye, "Merry Christmas to all, now you're all gonna die!" ...
