Gropwing up is realising he was the best Batman
>>223958335Always was. No other batman comes close.
He literally murder people
>>223958335*BLOCKS YOUR PATH*
>>223958420And?
>>223958420Yes, and every attempt to dark and gritty Batman who beats criminals within an inch of their life but can magically always pull his last punch has been stupid. If you want to do a "realistic" Batman story, people are gonna die.>>223958432This is still the correct answer, though.
>>223958491>who beats criminals within an inch of their life but can magically always pull his last punch has been stupid.exceptionally well-put
>>223958335>>223958432Both were great and the only good batmen>>223958420you dropped your picrel fatso
>>223958562What if you kill two killers?
>>223958335and the best bruce wayne
>>223958335Frank Miller's beautiful suit design helped
>>223958650Then you get a kitten
>>223958335this trilogy keeps getting better with every rewatch
>>223958650Wait a second.... You might be in to something there
Respect the C.
>>223958702Its not a trilogy, its one continuous masterpiece
>>223958420So did Keaton, so did Bale, so did Pattison. Don’t see the issue here.
The people that complain about him killer are ignoring that Zack Snyder tried to do exactly what Grant Morrison before him did with the Arkham Asylum comic. Present a broken and psychotic comic as a commentary on the post-Frank Miller take on the character, before rehabilitating the character and presenting a more healthy and wholesome Batman reflective of the pré-Frank Miller portrayal.
>>223958420I would hardly call killing child sex traffickers murder
>>223958420So did Adam West… What a weird hill to die on.
>>223958885Even the thing with the symbology with spear and the mother thing came from Morrison and this particular comic.
Kino
>>223958857That's brave I don't think I've ever seen the word masterpiece used in the vicinity of Justice League before
>>223958702>>223958857
>>223958909Here's the mother bit from the comic script.
>>223958915wtf you on about, Zack Snyders Justice League is absolute kino. 4 hours of pure ecstasy. I must have watched it 5 times since 2021
>>223958981I think op was speaking generally
>>223958981I really appreciate your commitment to the bit
>>223958981Based. I bought the box set for it. I don't care if /tv/ thinks I'm a jeet, I fucking love that movie.
>>223958886You don’t even realize how antisemitic you’re being right now. Wow.
>>223958420>Movie is about how Batman has fallen from grace and now resorts to killing>The citizens of Gotham don't like him anymore because he kills>Alfred keeps telling him to stop being a bitch about killing and go back to the good old days>Movie ends with him learning from Superman that he needs to inspire hope and stop killing>Audience loses their minds because Batman is killingDid people just not pay attention to the movie? Or is it just people repeating opinions they heard online?
>>223958981There is a kingdomThere is a kingAnd he lives withoutAnd he lives within
>>223958981>>223959034The best way i can describe ZSJL is that it feels like a moody and stylistic superhero teamup movie. Like the Donnie Darko of superhero team up movies.
>>223959002you have no idea nigger>>223959003Amen brother, not going to see any of the snyderverse movies at the theather is my greatest regret as a kino enjoyer.
>>223958865Pattinson and Clooney are the only Batmans not to have killed people
>>223959114They don't count because...THEY JUST DON'T OK?
>>223959034I like that the movie ends with him wanting to go see his father.
>>223959144Still funny how, if you go straight to Aquaman after this, that movie implies him and his dad are actually on great terms and see each other all the time.
>>223959114What is this then? Or the fiery pile up when pursuing Penguin?
>>223959155Where does Aquaman fit in the trilogy, and WW84
>hat son of a bitch brought the war to us two years ago. Jesus, Alfred, count the dead... thousands of people. What's next? Millions? He has the power to wipe out the entire human race, and if we believe there's even a one percent chance that he is our enemy we have to take it as an absolute certainty... and we have to destroy him.Has there ever been a more based and pragmatic batsy?
>>223959167>"Where does a 4th movie fit in a trilogy"Anon, I...
>>223959167Aquaman happens right after ZSJL.WW84 isn't canon and i don't care what Patty Jenkins says.>>223959155Well, he never said he was on bad terms with his father.
>>223959155yeah there were crazy discontinuities between justice league and aquaman and the crazy thing is that aquaman was very sucessful and so every body noticed lol
>>223959183That's because the post-production of Aquaman happened after Snyder was replaced in JL.Still, ignoring the weird bits about Mera, what with her having British accent and talking as if she was raised by Arthur's mother, it still fits.
>>223959183James Wan said you should just ignore those, treat the movie like its own thing, which is why they don't need to use bubbles to speak underwater anymore. I know it's just corpo bullshit so people don't point out how none of the movies post BvS connect to each other properly without multiple holes tho.
>>223959201She straight up mentions his dead being dead in ZSJL, but then the guy is alive and well in Aquaman. The movie pretty much assumes Joss Whedon's version is canon.
>>223959202They still use bubbles holes, but in Aquaman they do it when they want to talk in secret, which was Wan's way of trying to keep continuity.Still, the Mera bit is harder to justify.
>>223959220>She straight up mentions his dead being dead in ZSJLYou're confusing. She's not talking about Arthur's father, otherwise he wouldn't be able to meet his dad in the end, or say that was what he was going to do.What she says is that she was raised by Arthur's mother after her dad died, which isn't canon to what the Aquaman movie showed, where her dad is very much alive. That's because when JL was being filmed Douph wasn't going to originally play her dad, but her fiancée. They changed his role afterwards to be her dad.Wan gave a bullshit that in Snyder's stuff, she was just lying to Arthur, but come on...
>>223959244Oh that was a typo, I meant HER dad.
>>223959250Got you, yeah, you're right. Wan tried to give bullshit excuses but that and the British accent are hard to justify.
>>223958335Both Affleck and Cavill were well cast in the roles, however this does not make up for how incredibly shit their films are.
>>223959292But the films aren't shit at all, they're probably one of the best capeshit movies ever made.
>>223959201no it doesnt fit, what about the talking underwater thing, that was huge, thats universe breaking shit>>223959202I personnaly dont give a fuck about aquaman and his movied, the snyderverse is limited to the masterpieces snyderchad personnally directed as far as I'm concerned
>>223959312>no it doesnt fit, what about the talking underwater thing, that was huge, thats universe breaking shitAquaman plays it both ways, they can talk normally, they create bubbles to talk in secrecy.
>>223959325Herehttps://youtu.be/iv-Q4tLX038This was Wan's way of trying to play it nice both ways.
>>223959201>That's because the post-production of Aquaman happened after Snyder was replaced in JLso why didnt zach change his zsjl to fit the new narrative? he knew it was most likely to be the last movie anyways
>>223958335Better than all MCU slop combined desu
>>223958420we wouldn't want him to kill people who commit violent acts or acts of terrorism on innocent people or anything
I vaguely remember Snyder talking about him and Wan discussing continuity between JL and Aquaman, like whether or not Atlanteans could talk under water. I think the consensus was sticking with the air bubble for now but Wan would make the ultimate decisions on how everything in that corner of the universe worked and Snyder would just follow along for the JL sequels.
The fact that Perry White hates Kent is a nice touch. Was it also as such in the comics and cartoons?
>>223958491>Yes, and every attempt to dark and gritty Batman who beats criminals within an inch of their life but can magically always pull his last punch has been stupid. If you want to do a "realistic" Batman story, people are gonna die.why would criminals even be affraid of batsy if he isnt going to murder you? muh he will beat you and put you in jail? other criminals will also beat youand police will put you in jail
Ah, so this is a brown containment thread. Gotcha
>>223959458Snyder implied, that by BvS, Perry already sort of suspected that Clark was Superman, which is why he let Lois go to Gotham when shit was going down, despite being a hard stingy ass.
>>223959458Perry has always been kind of a hard ass. In BvS Clark was dodging his assignment to focus on reporting Batman which Perry told him not to do.
>>223958335>No one stays good in the world.Has supes ever said more chilly words?Fucking hell. Kino.
>>223958335Can’t agree or disagree with that. Truth is threre’s never been a decent live-action Batman. So, being the “best one” means nothing.
>>223958335I first read this as "Coping is realizing he was the best Batman"I agree with what my initial read.
>>223959834>So, being the “best one” means nothing.not according to your own fucking reply it doesnt mean nothing
>>223958335
>>223959910
>>223959160Assassinating criminals is different than them getting killed as a consequence of their actions. Do the comics try to maintain that no one has ever died as a result of Batman's actions ever? He just doesn't commit murder.
>>223958335Growing up is stopping making excuses for shit movies and shit characters, snydertard
>>223959031Just make Batman next time, instead of murdershit nobody likes
