It sounds as though Zack Snyder is having second thoughts about Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice's clunky title, but says DC wanted to keep it in.

"The studio was very excited about Dawn of Justice. That was important, in the title," said Snyder on the Happy Sad Confused podcast. "Where, for me, it was like I didn't really need it. But that was a conversation that we had to kind of tease this Justice League idea."
