The feeling following Man of Steel was that its somewhat disappointing box office and lukewarm reception had less to do with Snyder and more to do with Superman himself, as well as that the DCEU needed to catch up to the MCU. So Batman was brought in.
They already had the script for MoS 2 completed but shoehorned Batman into it, resulting in Batman v Superman.
I remember the hype before MoS was less "this is going to launch the DC Cinematic Universe" and more "this is going to be the Superman version of The Dark Knight", because of Nolan's involvement.
Yeah I think Snyder even said originally this wasn’t envisioned as a cinematic universe, just a Superman trilogy. But then MoS underperformed, Avengers broken records, and WB execs decided they wanted some of that too.
Which we’ve basically come full circle again with. This time instead of “let’s make Superman dark and ‘realistic’ since it worked for Batman” its “let’s make Superman black because that will allow us to tap into the market for Black Panther”. Same old WB still chasing trends, still not having faith in the character.

Yet,Snyder had to cut of all the scenes that made bvs atleast coherent narrativewise(I am not talking about creative choices.people expecting his movies to not feel like his movies are just wired.as said,he has particular portfolio of movies.You might not like the taste.But, that's a different matter.)

"People’s Dreams... Have No Ends"
Why would i interested in seeing that?? i couldn't disagree with you more!! That's is no sexual tension between Batman and Superman. Lois is with the right man the love of her life Clark Kent/Superman!! WW would be lucky to be with Superman or Batman!! Their both great heroes and good people!! But most of all WW should be with the love of her life Steve!! Don't Know why dc is keeping them apart. It's just plain silly!!

Read Seduction of the Innocent, it examines Batman’s sexuality, your eyes will be opened and you will see the Satanic evil hiding in comics. We must protect the children.

Lmao kidding don’t read that garbage book, but that was where the whole “Batman is gay and is having sex with Robin” pseudo intellectual take originated from
