There’s been a lot of debate over the official title of the upcoming Batman vs. Superman film scheduled to be released in 2015.
This week, Warner Bros. secretly registered a host of possible titles through the internet brand protection company MarkMonitor.
Now, it’s likely the debate is going to get more opinions.
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”.
Shorter variations of the names were also registered like, “Battle the Knight”, “Black of Knight”, “Knight Falls”, and “The Blackest Hour”.
With regards to MarkMonitor, it’s the same company Warner Bros uses for its very own warnerbros.com (WHOIS) and the registrar for the SupermanvsBatman.com domain (WHOIS).
Here’s a look at several of the names that were privately registered:

For now, it’s all just speculation.
Any of the above names could end up being the title. At the time of this story, Warner Bros. has made no announcement and none of the domains resolve to a web page.
So what do you think will be the title?
