So will Batman just murder people throughout all his films now?
Synder has really implemented a trait onto a character which DC can't take back unless they reboot Batman again, which it looks like they wont.
So are you ok that from now on Batman is a killer?
>>
Yeah hopefully the no kill rule he has is dumb as fuck.

DC Cinematic Universe

The Batman
Man of Steel
Batman: The Riddler
The Flash
Wonder Woman

Justice League (throw in Aquaman and Cyborg)

Batman: The Red Hood
Suicide Squad
Superman: Doomsday
Green Lantern
The Green Arrow
The Flash: Flashpoint

Before the fight scene to save Supermans mum he litrally shoots someone on a turret which the Batwings cannons and explodes him. Then stabbes a guy in the chest during the fight, which might not of killed him. But then definitely kills the guy with the flamethrower. And thats all one scene

That's right, and it's also before Superman dying, Batman lears from this experience and decides to stop killing.

Alfred sort of touches on it with the "turns good men cruel" speech, and we see him looking at Robins old costume. Hopefully the extended edition goes more into it, but it touches on it.

>>70192149
Joker says in Dark Knight, "kill you? what would I do without you?" and it's explained in the comics batman sort of feels the same way. They both give each other purpose.

Yeah in 1989 Batman it seems there isnt a no kill rule. But in Nolan Batman films he never intentionally kills people. I dont think he meant to kill Talia and maybe he knew he would kill Harvey when pushing him of the building but thats when he was pushed to the very limit

Are you retarded? Batmans arc in this movie was how he lost his way as a hero and then found himself again after the fight. They even show that he chose not to brand Luthor in the cell. He gave that up.

The guns on the batmobile are gone in Suicide Squad.

No, do as Marvel did and build up a C-lister into an A-lister. DCCU should've started with a Green Lantern that isn't absolute shit. They wanted to, what with Amanda Waller showing up randomly in it, but it was such a garbage movie they had to leave the IP alone for 9 years.

It should've gone
>Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner or John Stewart)
>The Flash: Rogues
>Aquaman
>Wonder Woman
>The World's Finest (Batman and Superman TEAM UP here, no fucking fighting)
>Justice League
>Cyborg

Is Suicide Squad after Batman v Superman or before it? Also good point. But the stigma of him just killer people will leave a bad taste in peoples mouths. Which it kinda has for me
>>
>>70192468
but he didn't kill in self-defense in the snyder movies.
Snyder flat-out said he man-slaughtered the goons
>>
>>70192592

There were more scenes that touched on it.

One of the dream sequences sees a nightmarish bat like figure, meaning he fears what he's become.

Alfred says at one point "everything's changed".

Bruce explains later "20 years in gotham, and how many good guys are left? how many stayed that way", meaning he's lost his faith playing mr nice guy.

It doesn't need some 30 minute cutaway explanation, it was explained plenty in the film. Perhaps you weren't paying attention.

He didn't kill them directly

What gaps are you talking about. The reason why he's become cruel is outright stated by both him and Alfred. You literally have to be a retard to not understand this.

Let me guess, you wanted a flashback of the Joker killing Robin and Batman going insane. Fucking retard.

>Batman has PTSD from the Zod attack, Jason Todd being killed, etc.

They explained why he was acting so crazy, and then used it to develop his character and give a reason to develop the JL. Now, this would have been more apparent if they had some previous movie where things like Jason Todd dying occurred, but they weren't going to waste time appealing to normies who haven't read the most popular Batman comics.

This movie was about Batman adopting the "don't kill" mantra, not about him using it.

It also implies that maybe he himself has gone too far. When he says "we were always criminals" it's him coming to terms with that.

"He who fights monsters should see to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."

See, if nobody spells this out for you, you simply wouldn't get it and you pretend like it's a basic line. Do you know how obvious your lack of self awareness is to people who aren't complete morons?

Considering all movie versions had killed excluding George Clooney one, yes Im OK.

Plus no killing its just a retarded rule to enforce the status quo and sell toys.

I would totally be 100% fine with Batman killing the Joker, specially in worlds like Nolan one in which there would be no repercussions.

Thankfully I'm not in the presence of some. I'm engaged in a conversation with someone who thinks a Batman movie is deep, and who can't understand basic lines of said movie.

These people are literally what Alan Moore was talking about.
>These days, superhero comics think the audience is certainly not nine to 13, it's nothing to do with them. It's an audience largely of 30-, 40-, 50-, 60-year old men, usually men. Someone came up with the term graphic novel. These readers latched on to it; they were simply interested in a way that could validate their continued love of Green Lantern or Spider-Man without appearing in some way emotionally subnormal. This is a significant rump of the superhero-addicted, mainstream-addicted audience. I don't think the superhero stands for anything good. I think it's a rather alarming sign if we've got audiences of adults going to see the Avengers movie and delighting in concepts and characters meant to entertain the 12-year-old boys of the 1950s.

So much this. I want batmans primary gadget to be a tec9 and he just goes into the hood at night until some young aspiring music artists call him a faggot and he just caps them all. News labels it as gang warfare. In all seriousness when I saw bvs in theaters I was having a blast seeing batman kill everyone but there was some little kid with his dad a row ahead of me in a batman shirt and I did feel weird; like batman is straight shooting people and this kid is probably losing his mind. I could tell his dad was fidgeting in his seat clearly unsure of how he was gonna explain that shit afterwards. In short, if they do do dark batman it needs to be R. These can't be children's movies anymore if the "hero" is doing exactly what the villain is doing.

But Batman killing people ruins the dynamic between Batman and The Joker. The Jokers goal is to 'Break the Bat' Which in BVS clearly shows he has. But some how The Joker is still alive? It seems that Robins death was what put Batman over the edge, but The Joker isnt the kind to hide if he knew Batman would want to kill him. He would imbrace it and let him kill him. So when it comes to the newer Batman films why would Joker bother trying to antognise Batman if we as a audience and Joker know Batman broke his one rule?

I agree with this. Man of Steel and Batman should have at least gotten their own trilogies. I understand Batman being at the end of his ropes by BvS but they should have showed us it getting that bad. Have our classic Batman in the first then have batgirl get crippled and top it off with robin getting murdered by joker. For Supermanm I wish Zod and his team actually hurt Superman a bit. I was hoping Faora would fuck him up a little bit.

The movies arent exactly deep, but they are way too deep for the normal audience. Case in point, OP. He looks over the entire reason batman kills in the movie, and also just doesnt understand that by the end of the fucking movie he stops. Its like he needs it spoonfed to him.

If Burton's movies came out today, they'd be shred to bits by people who would ask why he's killing people.
Why the movie tries to be all dark and deep.
Why Vicky Vale is a damsel in distress.
Why we never see Batman actually fighting.
People would complain that The Joker killed his parents and not Joe Chill.

Also, the lighting in BvS wasn't all that bad. Watch how the light reflecting of his helmet make it seem like his eyes are glowing. That's pretty cool desu.

>Synder has really implemented a trait onto a character which DC can't take back unless they reboot Batman again

Not necessarily.
There are some superhero sequels that loosely follow the continuity of the previous film while ignoring various details.
Superman Returns for example. And the second X-Men prequel didn't keep cat-Beast because it didn't overlap.

I'm sure there are other ones that weren't directed by Bryan Singer but I can't think of them right now.

frankly the fact that snyder and co played their version of batman so straight is admirable, as every other version generally go "oh yeah he's kind of weird" and play it off whereas here they say no, this guy is fucked up and he deals with the worst this world has to offer

hell, they actually pulled more out of his parents' death than any of the other versions by directly using it as a sort of internal trauma that is the basis for how he lives how he lives

the fact that people are mad over the warehouse scene actually gets to me as he was going through dozens of noninnocents to save the life of a single innocent person. that people are mad at batman for being brutally efficient with these people is infuriating. let alone the comparison to the punisher which just further proves they have no idea what they're talking about.
if you think snyder didn't present this batman with finesse then that's fair, but so many of the complaints on 'characterization' in the movie are myopic and invalid

>>70196685
Maybe the Joker wanted to sit back and watch the show, considering Batman started branding all of his victims

I'm with you. The movies in the DCCU have been getting worse. I don't even read comics, but Marvel movies have at least been decent.

I wouldnt think The Joker would enjoy seeing Batman become a killer. In The Dark Knight Returns he enjoys breaking Batman because it happens metaphorically and literally at the same time. By making Batman break his neck that in results breaks The Batman. But in BVS it doesnt work like that. Like The Joker says in TDK "I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it." and seemingly The Joker in BVS has caught the car. So what else does he have to live for now?

Wrong.

Well that doesnt explain anything. This is canon in Batman lore so we know he never killed the Joker. They are laughing at a Joke the Joker tells Batman.
The Joker gets of on the idea that Batman will kill him.

????

A main point of the dynamic between Joker and Batman is that Joker wants to show Batman that he's just as insane as he is. Only Joker is honest about it.

You can't claim he wouldn't enjoy seeing Batman become a killer and simultaneously claim he would get off on Batman killing him.

That's just stupid.

I know this image is absolute garbage filled with Disney shilling after watching Ant Man. How that movie gets an 80% is completely insane. It is utter garbage. Rotten Tomatoes is just a sticker that movie companies pay for to stick onto their dvd to grab the attention of retards

Ant Man is one of the ones that actually earned that 80%

Well the thing about all superheroes is that they cant kill villains, because the series would end..

its retarded that he can kill henchmen or civilians but not villains

But movies shouldn't have to care about that. That's why movies and comics shouldn't be compared like this.
Let's be honest if we had a Batman trilogy and in every movie the Joker was the villain we'd get sick of him.

that's what moore brought to the table, before him the joker didn't have that dimension to him

seeing as how leto joker is more influenced by morrison it still fits as the point is never death itself but its meaning


batman rip could provide to have a lot of what could make it into their dynamic as the whole thing revolves around batman trying to make sense of everything which the joker mocks repeatedly


also, the whole kill thing only exists because of the readers and the inability of capecomics to move forward in any meaningful way without having to revert to a previous status quo all the time. batman not killing out a moral stance somewhat recent

Killing is okay when it's most other superheroes. Consider Spider-Man and Green Goblin--they're physical equals, perhaps Goblin is even stronger. Spider-Man hasn't killed him because he fucking can't.

Batman and Joker are a FAR different situation. Batman has trained in two dozen different martial arts and has an unlimited supply of capital and access to militart grade hardware. The Joker is, in his current incarnation, a psychopath whose only real advantage is unpredictablity. That can only work for so long before it's clear that the man who fought superman on 18 months notice should be able to kill one lunatic.

The movie had problems, lots of them, but this really wasn't one of them.

They did touch on Batman breaking his rules and if you didn't catch it it really is your own fault.

nolan and burton both had batman kill people. fuck off.

Alfred tells Bruce that he's changed. It doesn't take a genius to tell that Superman's arrival fucked Bruce's worldview up. He kills because he strives to be meaningful anymore, to make just an ounce of an impact. He's defended a slum of a city for 20 years, doing a little here and therewhile Superman is able to defen the entire world. Clark has done more for the world than Bruce has in a shorter time too. That's why Bruce kills as of recent. Not to mention the urgency of the situation with Doomsday

ironically enough, that movie displays the same approach to death displayed in bvs ie "i don't have to save you" and "got what was coming"

this isn't something that deserves this response or discussion
