    Poll Warner Bros. registers domain names for possible ‘Batman vs. Superman’ titles (71 votes)

    Man of Steel: Battle the Knight 4%

    Man of Steel: Knight Falls 17%
    Man of Steel: Shadow of the Night 21%
    Man of Steel: The Blackest Hour 4%
    Man of Steel: The Darkness Within 3%
    Other 37%

    According to the latest domain registrations, possible titles include “Man of Steel Battle the Knight”, “Man of Steel Beyond Darkness”, “Man of Steel Black of Knight”, “Man of Steel Darkness Falls”, “Man of Steel Knight Falls”, “Man of Steel Shadow of the Night”, “Man of Steel The Blackest Hour”, and “Man of Steel The Darkness Within”.

    - Source

    Domain names most of the times ends up being the title of the movie, WB registered the domain Man of Steel before the title of the movie was announced although I don't think any of those names will end up being the title for the movie, but if I had to choose one I'd go for Shadow of the Night. Which one of these seems a good name to you guys?

    Agreed, all of these sound like fanfilms. I don't think they will go with any of those names.

    They should go with Man of Steel: Age of Affleck.

    On the other hand this one sounds like a reallllyy bad spoof film.

    @rustyroy: They all sound corny, but if they where to pick one out of these I'd want it to be Man of Steel: Darkness Falls.

    However, I hope they drop all these and go with Worlds Finest.

    None of them are amazing, but I wasn't thrilled about 'Man of Steel,' either. Either way, I'm happy that (at least the title) is Superman-centric. Hopefully the film will be, as well.

    I like "Shadow of the Night," but does anyone else think they missed something by not making it "Shadow of the KNIGHT?"

    Man of Steel: Shadow of the Knight is the only one I could tolerate. The rest scream of way too much Batman pandering in the title. And even though I realise it's unlikely to happen, just as everyone else is saying, why the hell wouldn't you use World's Finest in the title of the film?

    Yeah. I'd see it regardless of the title. Hopefully it's the best movie DC has ever released.

    Hopefully it's the best superhero movie ever released.

    Hopefully it's the best movie ever released - period.

    Did some one notice the second name are all Batman related, not related to both characters.

    Also why cant MOS 2 be about Superman only and this be World Finest, you know like in the comics where characters have several ongoings.

    I say to everybody they wouldnt let Superman had a sequel for himself.

    Everything has to be about Batman, Arrow and JL will be Batman and his b1tch3s.

    I love Batman, but this is too much.

    agreed and also this seems to be a vs film more so im going to say that maybe worlds finest wouldnt fit the overall picture.

    i can take the easy route and say dark knight returns w/e but give me a few hours and i think i can come up with some better fan made titles for the film

    I don't know why they won't call it World's Finest, its not like people aren't going to know what it is since the Bat and Superman logos will be on the poster. They are probably the two most recognizable symbols in fiction and all the preexisting fans would know what the title meant.

    Look, if you're going to do this, and you are so against World's Finest, don't half a** it. Just say what you mean and get it over with. It's not even a bad title if that's what you're going for, so just do it. Here, I'll show you.

    JUST CALL IT WORLDS FINEST.

    If you WANT it to tag the MoS tag in it then call it "Man of Steel: Worlds Finest"

    Because those are the WORST names I've seen for a movie ever.

    Man of Steel: World's Finest would be a good title. It still has the Superman lead and references the Batman team without trying to shoehorn Dark Knight or some variation into the title.

    World's Finest. But that doesn't imply a big fight and that is all Snyder is interested in. Ugh.

    Still, these are all superior to Batman vs Superman. Shadow of the Knight (yes I added the k), I guess.

    MOS: Did you remember Nolan used to be the producer until we bring Batman, yes even Nolan is tired of Batman shit.

    MOS: Alfred wins the final fight, suck it fanboys

    MOS: Batman beats Superman in a dance off.

    MOS: with cameos of every single character of DC and almost no screen time for Superman

    MOS: Now with 300% moar Batman and 50% less Superman.

    We cancel Mos2, Because Nolan is making and Alfred movie, Allmighty Alfred The Destroyer of Worlds!!!

    Actually that makes since to me (about the name).

    Man of Steel = Superman

    Secondary title = Batman

    It's a Superman and Batman film. They're both being referenced in the name this way. Although those names are all terrible. I actually think it makes since to bring in Batman now. They won't have to redo his origin, they can just start with him already existing in this universe (making them one step closer to a JL movie) and at the same time we won't have to worry about things like "Where was Batman during all of these events?". If they do the story right it could actually provide a lot of character development for Superman and build up to later solo movies for him where he will actually be like the hero in the comics. Besides, as long as it's a good movie, who cares?

    They can called Mos2:The Caped Crusaders.

    But there is a problem when Batman name looks bigger that Superman one.

    It doesn't. Man of Steel is the MAIN (and most important) part of the title. That's why everything after is called a Sub-title. It's secondary.

    why not call it superman/batman public enemies?

    i know they used it for the animated film ( wich i still havent seen) but i like the sound of that over any of those domain names and that can really work with how society not just looks at superman but batman as well since he will already be seasoned

    Not criticizing WB,but its kinda funny They have all these characters to choose from and haven't come up with a JL movie.Where as Marvel doesn't have all its rights to its characters and still made Avengers.I guess Green Lantern really set them back...

    Yeah, I really hate most of these. I'm all for World's Finest (or anything that sounds better than what's listed above really).
