Snyder

But burton had the right idea with it being a flashback and not in the very beginning

BvS easily.

The one where they had bloodstains and bullet holes.

Wait. That doesn't happen in comic book movies, because comic books are fucking SHIT.
>>
It's a tie between Batman Begins and BvS
>>
BvS. Besides the whole closeup shot of his dad saying 'Martha', that introduction to the movie did a fine job briefly recapping the tragic event that gave us Batman.

>>70274322
1989 Batman

It was used correctly to add depth to Bruce's character at the right moment.

Batman '66

The Nolan one.
It's the most subtle and emotional, I really like the whole Thomas Wayne scenes in the movie.

The Gotham one's the least subtle

I didn't even care after the first time I saw it, was too busy rolling my eyes to pay attention in BvS, there was 0 need for it. 0.

Batman vs Joker should be an ideological war not a revenge story.

Burton tired something different and I felt it worked well enough. I don't need for every Batman/Joker story to be about their two clashing ideologies to enjoy it.

What the fuck? Spoilers you son of a bitch!
>>
>>70275869
Can you read? I said he wasn't born as Batman.
Besides he didn't suddenly transform into Batman the moment his parents were shot dead, he isn't Captain Marvel.
>>
>>70275878
But that's where you're wrong. Their ideologies are what make them them. If batman didn't have his no kill rule he would kill joker and it wouldn't be entertaining. If joker quit being a force of pure evil or decided that batman wasn't fun anymore and killed him it wouldn't be entertaining. If joker didn't believe that "one bad day" is all it takes for someone to snap and become like him the greatest joker story wouldn't have been a thing. If batman didn't have his no kill rule then his greatest story, where he finally abandons it, wouldn't have been made. You're objectively wrong and that's why I insulted you. Yes people are free to have their own opinions but it's stupid fucking opinions like that, that would ruin a franchise if someone actually listened to you.

you are the comic nerd.

Normal people don't have Bruce Wayne's parents' death in their minds constantly for them to go "not again!" Average people who forgot simply saw a new scene for the 1st time
>>
>>70277758
If someone genuinely wants a superhero's first movie to not have his origin in it then their opinion means less than nothing. It's only for the first movie, and in BvS it was only the first scene, it was over in 5 mins. Honestly I would rather that they put spider-mans origin in civil war just because of the fact that origins usually change slightly and just because it was his first movie of this version.
>>
>>70277865
>forgetting that batman's parents were shot
These types of people shouldn't even be allowed to exist. How the fuck do you not know how batman became batman? My dad has never even seen a batman movie and he knows his whole origin.
>>
>>70277977
it's not about forgetting or not knowing fully, it's just that its dramatic impact is not fresh in people's mind, they don't read comics/ watch cartoons and they're not seeing their deaths for the 799th time.

BvS for all its shit actually made a simple scene with nice acting, good flow, camera motion, music etc, it had a really nice mood, it was nicely done and felt good in the theater. It didn't felt like "you must be told this to get the following", just a sad little piece

It's like thinking everyone knows Superman's backstory and real name. You know like you know actors you call "that guy from the thing"

No, that's the thing, it's not 1989 anymore. By now the average person has had so much Batman media shoved down his throat that he gets it.

Hollywood is just treating the audience like a bunch of morons like always, and directors want to shot THAT scene because they only care about their take on the character.

At least they could be a little more subtle and not doing it as if it was the first time everyone was watching that.
>>
>>70278687
as a casual batman fan I cant relate to most fans and their stuff (i've saw the films, played the games, read DKR, Y1, Killing Joke etc).

Whenever I see a new work, every writer treats their own creations/ writing as current-Bruce's originator. The main trauma never feels in the picture, it's always "damn man, fucking Talia" or "Too many Robins died" or whatever. I read one from Grant Morrison where he's barely a traumatized crime fighter, but a guy who came back from time travel and became a George Soros figure
>>
>>70279004
>casual batman fan
>has consumed every piece of batman media that is considered must read/see/play for die hard fans
There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a big batman fan you don't have to try and say you're casual so people don't think you're a fag. If you've read multiple comics watched through all the movies and played the games you may not be a die hard fan but you most certainly are not casual.
>>
>>70279791
ok im fine with that. I just dont know things like batgirl or the robins (how many, who died etc), the games were the first time i saw harley, only know Ras Al Gul from the Nolan movies etc

when i open a new comic i'm lost so i get why a director would at least foccus on parents dying instead of doing batman #345310981 where i'm supposed to be shocked Bruce kissed villain x's sister's cousin
>>
>>70280560
Batgirl you should know from the killing joke, and the only robins that are important are the one who turned into nightwing and Jason Todd. Jason Todd was the one that got beat to death that they retconned for arkham knight.
>>
Gotham's, by far
>>
>>70280676
oh ok haven't played arkham knight yet
>>
>>70280951
Read a death in the family before you do. They show it happen but it's much more brutal on the page than in the game.
>>
>>70275870
In the normal origin he saw zorro and wasnt scared, it was just on the way to their car
>>
>>70274357
Burton's does have a good fake-out with the couple and their son trying to get a cab in the beginning in the beginning; if you knew Batman's origin you where probably thinking it was leading up to it until Batman shows up


Few people know, but Batman's origin wasn't really shown in media u It was never really touched upon until the 80's. I think a superfriends episode beats Burton to the punch, but Burton was the first to do it in liveaction. So if you didn't read comics before then, you might not have even known Batman's origin. So I don't really blame them for making it such a common thing in modern adaptations.
>>
>>70280924
He's screams like a bitch though.
>>
>>70281049
yes not having seen Burton's for at least a decade that fake out was pretty good

>>
>>70281118
No kidding? You know in real life, lots of terrible things like this happen, but the kid doesn't undergo an insane transformation into a lunatic.

Obviously it has to be a very traumatic moment, even more traumatic than a standard parents-getting-killed. Bruce is an odd child.
>>
>>70278293
You could tell it was really dumbed down to appeal to a mass audience.

It's a cheap and boring way to make Batman hate joker.

Nolan was able to show their non-personal hatred of each other through their thoughts and actions.

Batman is supposed to be a brick wall that that the Joker endlessly tries to break, adding a personal edge to the story ruins it.

This is why Batman 89 is a good Tim Burton movie but a poor Batman movie.

How do you mean? Jason Todd gets beat to death, then they put him in the Lazarus Pit and he comes back as Red Hood. Arkham Knight was just like that except they made him the Arkham Knight, but he was Red Hood under the bat mask shit.

>this is the kind of people that think BvS is a shit movie
What's funny is that they claim that they get it.

Actually must've missed the fact that they used the Lazarus Pit for either. I thought they retconned it for red hood and arkham knight.
>>
>>70283583
Its implied. But Snyder is an actually legit moron, so he can't into implications. So a lot of Watchmen shit was hamfisted.

Like how it could be briefly interpreted that Batman shot someone in TDKR, so he goes on a murder spree in BvS.

>>
>>70285133
>could be briefly interpreted
You do realize that batman blatantly murders just as many people in TDKR as BvS right? Have you not read it? I have the book at my house, I would go take pictures to prove it but I'm not home.

>>70274322
Snyder's hands down. Quick and to the point with lots of depth and emotion.
>>
>>70287254
It's the geek and nerd culture thing shows like BBT promote. It's hip, especially among girls, to know all this shit and be into 'lore'. It's the 'street-credibility' for places like fb or reddit, it's the internet ageā„¢.
>>
>>70287457
Sure you get the "im such a nerd" shit but you sort of know it's bullshit. If you start talking about Batman with a friend while girls are in earshot i can feel the pussy around drying even though they'll try to nerdtalk and butt in
