>>71973470

The comic is ultra violent, the Mask kills criminals and cops alike, it's a lot less playful and a hell of a lot more sinister, the part where he shoves the muffler up the crooked mechanics' butts? They die in the comic.

No? There's no romantic subplot or anything, just the Mask going around killing people that get in his way with the cops trying to stop him and crooks doing similar, in the end of the first story Ipkiss gets shot by his lady friend who takes the Mask for herself.

>Or how much Adam Motherfucking West butchered golden age Batman because he didn't Kill?

Adam West was Silver age Batman actually, and it seems that super captain kill Bat didn't last as long as most people think

>But I think there’s a misconception among a lot of readers that this was the original intent of the creators, and that the murderous, gun-toting Batman persisted until Dr. Wertham or the Comics Code or even the 1966 TV show arrived and forced a change that toned him down. But by going back and reading through those first couple years of Batman stories, it’s easy to see that this wasn’t the case at all. The fact of the matter is that this “original” version of Batman lasted about two years.

>By 1940’s Batman #4, in a story by co-creators Bill Finger and Bob Kane — which is about as definitive as you can get — Batman reminds Robin that “we never kill with weapons of any kind.”

It's pretty much a horror movie, a different take on Jekyll and Hyde, the more Ipkiss uses the mask the more it corrupts and influences him when it's off, hell it happens to everybody.

and couldn't be made 20 years ago? Throw Raimi and Bruce Campbell at it with a decent budget and tell me different.

Feels like both a stylistic choice and also being in close proximity to Big Head.

Is this even an argument, doesn't feel like it..
>>
>>71981282
>gore and murder makes a comic serious
it only makes it have gore and murder which in itself brings nothing to the story. If you remove the gore you see what kind of a shallow piece of shit the comic really is and how it relies on it. Which is fine I guess, think of it as a brainless action movie, but don't go pretending it's somehow really good or that it's a sin to make an adaptation that differs from it
