it really is perplexing. i don't think i have ever seen an instance where batman was portrayed bigger than superman. this will be the first.

i really can't pretend to know the reason but perhaps snyder's undying love for frank miller has something to do with it.

I think I read somewhere they want Bats to appear equal to Superman, at least in terms of appearance to make it look like an even fight to the casual fans.

Edit: Here it is. They don't explain it exactly bit they mention it.

"We also wanted a guy with big stature. Ben is 6' 4". Henry [Cavill] is 6'1". We wanted Batman to tower over Superman. Not hugely, not like a basketball player. Superman needed to 'look up' to Batman. We wanted that dynamic, and Ben could do that, easily," he said.
