>killed multiple crooks
>Doesn't feel the least bit bad about killing crooks
>His Bat Symbol looks like it just came off a year long diet of McDonalds coated in whale fat
>hes too bulky and slow

>he was willing to kill Superman before even bothering to talk with him, and was quicker to resort to lethal force than Supes was
What the fuck is so hard about copy + pasting Batman from the Arkham game series into the movies?
>>
I'm too drunk to read the entire OP, but
>killing multiple crooks
I always love this in Batman shit. Even the original animated series. He always fuckin' tosses shit around and blows dudes up, and it's like "LESS THAN LETHAL" yeah okay dude you just crushed 20 dudes under your fuckin' car and launched a missile and blew up a building with dudes in it and now the fucking rubble dropped on them, also the guy you fucking pushed over a 30 foot drop, yeah great, definitely nobody died there.

>I CAN'T KILL, or at least it doesn't count if I don't stand there and actually see them die

Fucking hilarious. It actually enhances the Batman experience for me.

Well they're currently shitting on Batman harder than the Christopher Nolan series did and that takes some fucking effort.
>>
>>80932911
I was obviously being hyperbolic, but he does countless things in that show which should actually kill people even if incidentally, pretty much through the entire animated series (which is then continued later). This is pretty much one of the oldest Batman gags.

The point of Snyder's Batman is that he probably did stick to his principles in the past, but became dark and violent after Joker killed Robin.

If that's the case then Snyder should've done Batman the traditional way this time around and then built up to that. You can have all the exposition and history you want, but film is a visual medium and it needs to be communicated as such.
>>
>>80932728
>>hes too bulky and slow

He is a bit slow but still better than any other live adaptation of Batman.

>>he looks and fights like one of those Armored Enforcers from Arkham Origins, not a fluid, effective combatant who has spent the entirety of his youth training in every martial art know to man
kek, hopefully they will make him more like the Arkham batman.
Unfortuanetly they would have to make him cgi then instead of having someone fight.
Kinda hard having a large actor flying around doing flips and kicking the shit out of goons.
>>
>>80935428

yes, kind of like if they had a child
>>
>>80935964
For fucks sake man use your imagination. There was already a hint in the movie (Robin's suit) that explains what happened.
>>
>>80935246
Dark Knight sucked too.
>>
>>80936157
Also, Alfred in this movie, he looked too young to be... Alfred, I guess? I mean he looked like around the same age as Brother Blood from Teen Titans, but Alfred is supposed to an older man in his 60/70s, and a fatherly figure to him, showing the humanity in Batman.
This Alfred just felt like Batman's buddy.
Plus this entire fight scene feels kinda mixed. There is traditional Batman moments where he has controlled, non-lethal takedowns, and then shit like the box to the face and the grenade where he brutally kills thugs.
Batman, the batman I know, would have caught that grenade in the air with his Batclaw and thrown it out a window, then thrown a bola sort of device around the two guys, or hit them batarrangs.
The box? he just wouldn't have used it. That zip-kick sort of thing he does where he uses the grapple hook to take people down, that feels like Batman, but the desert scene and this one, where he straight up mauls kills and shoots enemies, thats Deadpool, not Batman.
Batman is supposed to be hero who does not ever break his resolve. He is always completely controlled, and no matter what, he never kills, under any circumstances, regardless of who hes fighting. He shouldn't have blown that guy up with his own flamethrower, he should have sliced the ignition off the tip with a batarrang, grabbed his neck, and smashed his head into a wall, ONCE.
This Batman also put the general public in immense danger with his Batmobile chase scene, so yea.
We're not looking good with this source material.
>>
>>80935133
Basically.
Good choice for Batman, bad director, TERRIBLE script.
>>
>>80934921
Thats the whole point of Batman, he DOESN'T get to dark, he is a pure, bastion of justice, who never breaks, and never kills. If Batman becomes a killer, Joker wins, Bane wins, all his villains win, because they forced him to their level.
Batman is above that sort of weakness.

Jeremy Irons is 22 years older than Affleck, so it's a slight stretch in terms of age since Alfred is supposed to have had a military career before becoming the Wayne's valet, but not impossible. Don't forget that people stay younger for longer in their lives than when Alfred was created.
>>
>>80937464
um... so far every single live action batman has been its own thing capitalizing off the comics, and the comics have had a fuck load of spin off series one of which the dark knight series was aping, we can imagine many different ways batman may have become what he is, but motherfucker show it, because till then its just shit.
>>
>>80932728
>killed multiple crooks
desu that's one of the point of his character in BvS. This is an aging Wayne who has become cynical and the death of Robin made him not give a fuck, which is why he doesn't mind torturing and killing criminals anymore.

>>80938382
Yea they didn't show Robin's death so it didn't feel like there was a reason for it, but my point is that it doesn't matter what reason he has, Batman does not kill.
Sun shines.
The sky is blue
Grass is green
Batman does not kill.
These are LAWS. OF. THE. UNIVERSE.
If Batman kills, everything about him is ruined, his entire appeal is the normal man who is more extrodinary than us all, the greatest of what one person can be.
When he shits on his one and only most important rule, Batman is no longer a hero, he is a vigilante and a criminal, and hes not worthy to be part of the Justice League.
>>
>>80938619
Im willing to accept an alternate universe that drove batman to kill, granted I take all dc live action movies as shit compared to the animated counterpart for staying close to the characters, so I literally expect nothing and as long as they don't have batman drop a deuce and rub it over himself while fighting, im generally ok with it.

But the tone of the movies... they have issues that I find very hard to get behind.

>>80939503
This Batman was better-ish, but still shit for this exact reason, plus again, he felt to static, and Nicholson as Joker was not funny, he looked like one of those weird freak creatures from the Spy Kids movies.
Other heros in other movies aren't Batman, so that doesn't work, if you remove the no kill rule from Batman, he is no longer Batman, see >>80939517 for my explanation on this. It is a central part of Batman that he neutralizes without killing. Not only is that a incredibly important part of his character, that is WHO BATMAN IS. Take that away, Batman loses all meaning.

>>80932847
Agree 100% drunken anon. There's no way somebody spurred to action by street trash killing his parents is going to let someone like the Joker live time and time again because of some moral conundrum. That's the reason he becomes a vigilante in the first place: Never beholden to rules that can be corrupted and actually serve evil by letting it escape to cause the world misery another day. My Batman would have snapped the Joker's skinny neck the third time they met.

With regular crooks, I don't mind him killing them when they're clearly armed terrorist types or folks who are putting innocents in immediate danger. If they're just scummy types, hopefully he'd just round em up for the police.

tl;dr I trust Batman's fucking appraisal of the situation over 4chan's, and if he said "That nigga needs to die" in his electro manly voice, I'd just be like "Sheeeit you probly right Bruce. Lemme step back a little"

if you killed someone who was just shooting at you, are you a different person?
this "NO KILL" business is complete bullshit because it just counts whether or not people died or not in relation to batman's actions, it completely ignores the actual movie and just points at any instance where a guy died as shouts "bad!"


KGBeasts dudes were all the same guys from the first scene, you know, the the paid mercenary force that staged a superman intervention? the same mercenary force who was collectively acting with the goal of killing an INNOCENT person at the warehouse?


any one of those guys had every chance to leave, why all of a sudden are we so mad at batman for simply trying to stay alive in a room full of people shooting at him

kys
>>
I wanna see a series where Batman doesn't kill people, but nobody realizes it, so he gives people gruesome, non-lethal injuries, or coats his weapons/fists in fake blood so criminals can't act smug when he threatens them. Make like a big point about nobody, not even the audience realizing this, until the Joker calls him out on it.
>>
>>80940269
The problem is the audience is already expecting Batman not to kill anyone. So it would ruin the big moment and everyone would be: ''So that's the big twist?''
>>
>>80940220
Are you retarded. Batman has been through worse in the comics without becoming a killer.
>>
>>80940328
It'd be preceded by things like Batman snapping arms and stabbing crooks with batarangs and excessive blood, and criminals being told in hospitals that Batman very nearly killed them. Dunno, I've always disliked the idea that Batman is good at heart, just a more emo Spider Man. The only reason he doesn't kill people is because he couldn't get over the permanence of his parents' death.

This is true, but like I said in the original post, the best way to portray Batman is to model his arc after the Arkham games. They are some of the best games out there for Batman, they are tactical, engaging, realistic portrayals of how Batman fights and what he does.
Never does he kill, never does he allow anyone to be killed, he always saves as many lives as possible, no matter what.
The strength of Batman is not crushing his foe by any means necissary, the strength of Batman is Batman wanting to kill, always wanting to kill, wishing it could be so easy to just crush Joker or Two-Face or Black Mask or Mad Hatter into paste.
The strength of Batman is knowing he could do that, but choosing not to. That is what makes him a great hero.
>>
>>80940111
Because Batman finds a way to defeat the thugs without using lethal force, ever. That is what Batman does, thats what makes him special.
>>
>>80940111
>why all of a sudden are we so mad at batman for simply trying to stay alive in a room full of people shooting at him
Because comic book fans are perpetually hung up on the miscellaneous details of their childhood heroes, rather than capturing the essence of the character and having it adapted.

This goes deeper than just the movies, even different writers and artists get shat on for writing a character differently. It's all Dobson-tier "Nooo! Link has BROWN hair!" crying. "Not muh" comic book fans are truly the most pathetic people.

>>80940220

So everything done right was done by Affleck, and everything done wrong was done by Snyder? Sounds about right.

Most DC heroes don't kill. The no kill rule isn't unique to Batman and besides his reasoning against it is so fucked up in comparison. "I can't kill because it will prove my villains are right " or "I won't be able to come back from that" are a lot more suspect than "I won't kill because it's wrong"

Yea but they have superpowers, not being lethal is easy to them.

Flash: Hi. *punch and teleport* Hello. *uppercut and teleport again* sup? *finishes with face kick*
Aquaman: *clobbers over the head with magic trident*
Green Lantern: *grabs crooks in a giant ball of green power, drops them in jail*
Superpowers make things insanely easy, Batman has to try really hard, he has to be careful, he has to be restrained, to resist a fatal strike.
>>
>>80941142
IF THERE IS SOMETHING AS CENTRAL TO THE PLOT AS

>>
>>80941292
>Superman: *le flicks someone, insta-KO*

Except Superman fights other planet crackers, Gods and beings with intellects far superior to this. In fact when you look at it Superman is usually inferior in a big way to most of his villains will batman is usually stronger and smarter than his.

So superpowers don't make things easy when the guys you're fighting have superpowers of their own
>>
>>80940937
No you are the problem actually. The suit of Robin and his chat with Alfred about Superman imply that he has been through heavy shit and he doesn't value the lives of criminals as he did in the past. They didn't have to set up every single detail with 10 fucking shitty solo movies beforehand like MCU when some things are so easy to understand.

We're not talking about superhero vs supervillian here though, we're talking about hero vs average criminals, this is another way in which Batman is more interesting than say, Superman, because Batman's villains all feel remotely possible in some way, they could exist in some kind of alternative world, where with Superman its basically a fucking issue of Dragon Ball Z

there is not one single thing batman does in bvs that is any more intense than anything in any other batman media, save for the branding, which itself is relevant both in the narrative context and in regards to pulling more out of the zorro inspiration than anyone else up to this point
whether or not batman kills does not matter, and the fact that the who argument depends on your ability to decontextualize his actions itself shows that this is just some meaningless way to complain about shit that doesn't matter

batman in bvs wasn't him reacting and living with robin's death, it's a guy who's spent twenty years of his life trying to fight crime and feel like a failure, only to go through more and more events that make his life as batman meaningless
of course the unacknowledged phenomenon here is that this 'purity' in batman is less about the reality of a supposed batman but about the fantasy of being morally superior to everyone, which leads right back to the movie anyway

This Batman is an allegorical stand-in for the post-911 America, whereas TDKR Superman was a stand-in for the morally compromised America of the 70s-80s.

If Miller gets to do it with Superman and have people kiss his ass for 30 years, then you guys should cut Snyder and his team a break at some point. Bruce was no more out of character here than Clark was in Miller's story, unless you legitimately think Superman can go to war and crack battleships in half without anyone dying.

It's not just Batman. Superman will punch somebody through a building and collapse a fucking skyscraper and we're supposed to believe there's not a single casualty.

It happens in the comics too. Pic-related, Hulk has probably killed people before, if only as an accidental casualty. But oh they don't want anybody to die in their comics so this shit happens instead

I'm constantly fascinated by idiots like you who ask all the right questions, yet never reflect on the answers. How many times have you tossed out a question like, "Why didn't he just make a kryptonite bullet?" then just moved on, smugly assured of your mic-dropping zinger?

If you'd ever stopped to think about an actual answer, you'd understand what was going on with Bruce in that scene and why he was likely to hear his mother's name regardless of what Clark said.

If you'd ever stopped to think.

It never bothered me, honestly. It's not like Batman has ever gone too excessive, either. Even in the '89 Batman, he blows up a factory, but we only see like 5 dudes in the whole building so it could be way worse.

Next Batman movie should be all in slow motion while Wagnerian opera plays. No more Bruce Wayne bullshit. There should be shots of angels falling from the sky with their faces melting and Superman sitting in a throne in flames in the middle of the clouds, shouting the bible (Book Of Job) in esperanto, his words heard throughout the whole world. Batman is seen fighting some invisible force that seems to overpower him (it's the burden he must carry) but at the last minute he succeeds and for a second feels shame for both himself and his self. Now the last battle begins

Seems like on screen Batman kills more than in the comic. But I guess people don't like with Batfleck because he's more brutal.

Keaton came after the campy shit of Adam West, you think someone cared if he kills or not?

Affleck came after Bale, the first time somebody take the rule of not kill and plays a not bad at all Batman.

tl;dr - yes, i personally have no sympathy for armed men being paid by corporations to undermine other people
during the chase for the kryptonite?
it doesn't matter to me? my perspective on the movie doesn't depend on whether that act is justified, which would go right back into the narrative of the movie and the fact that superman intervenes moments after

understanding the character's motivation and mindset, yes?

the "batman in bvs is wrong" crowd always frames everything as if batman in the movie just casually found some people and did them dirty

the 'thugs' in bvs were the same people in the desert, working for a crazy billionaire who committed a domestic act of terror, who eventually went on to hold an innocent person hostage this context matters as well as the characterization of bruce


you cannot take any act on film, isolate it, ask if it's okay or not, then judge the film on whether or not you think that one act is kosher

>the "batman in bvs is wrong" crowd always frames everything as if batman in the movie just casually found some people and did them dirty

Pt 1.
OP here, the fact Batman never killed people was pretty much what made him special, as I've said before, but I didn't go into the way he does it. In Batman mythos a lot of the time, Batman does not only go to great extents to avoid killing people, hes completely fine with crippling them for life, which in my opinion, is a better punishment entirely. It makes it even more terrifying to some criminals, being dead is terrifying, but being punched so hard you don't stop cringing from taking a single breath for 6 month, and the bat dislocates your arm in 3 places so badly it never moves right again, that makes sure the criminal will probably fuck off, and also that every single one of his friends know what happens when you mess with Gotham, plus it shows the people that this isn't just some vigilante murderer who acts outside of the law, hes a restrained, controlled hero working tirelessly to protect whats right.
Batman in this new movie was like a cultish thug, hell considering how everyone in prison murdered inmates with the Bat Brand, a person who didn't know any better could accuse Batman of leading some kind of sick murder cult.
That and Alfred did nothing to stop him, Alfred, if he is to be relied upon as a fatherly figure and wise Yoda to Batman's Luke Skywalker, guiding him in what is right and what is wrong, should fulfill his role as the careful and caring moral mentor, who reminds Bruce of who he is. In BvS, he seemed like an accomplice, and acted as though he and Bruce were friends, I never saw a reference to parental love between the two, something even Nolan's shitshow tried to do.
This Batman was a failure because he lost who he was, no matter what happens, the appeal of Batman is that he is stronger than those around him, he stands as a beacon to what is right and what is wrong in a person, he resists the urge to give in to his rage and his hate.
I mentioned this before, but again there is a small part of Under The Red Hood that addresses this.
>>
>>80954802
Pt 2.
https://youtu.be/7kscfb9XzPs?t=1m20s
This is why Batman is my favorite superhero. He knows what he could do, he knows what hes capable of, and he knows what he'd become if he let that part of himself take over.
He wouldn't be the hero anymore, he wouldn't have the love of the people or the knowledge that he was something Gotham needed to survive, he'd just be another thug. He'd be just the same as everything he had fought so hard to remove from his city.
The Batman they showed me here is a Batman who has forgotten who he is, and has decided that this is ok, and that leaving his code behind doesn't matter, when thats all that ever mattered.
If Batman decided to be Judge, Jury, and Executioner, the police would be after him, the military might send a detatchment, and they'd put him in even more danger than being Batman already does.
Thats why this Batman failed me, because as far as Batman should be concerned, he failed himself.

In original Batman comics, Batman killed people. Throwing them into chemicals, snapping necks, lynching them. People use the Arkham games as reference? He throws people into electric boxes, tosses them of ledges, hangs them to gargoyles with their blood going all to their head, and drives a speeding fucking tank and nailing people. Those dudes are fucking dead anon.
Then if you watch Keaton Batman, he knocks people off buildings, straps bombs to them, and killed both The Joker and Penguin.
Then Nolan tried to nail in his kill rule, while we see him blow up a bunch of people in the League of Shadows, driving a tank around like a lunatic, the "I won't kill you, but I don't have to save you" is manslaughter, or indirect murder. Then he kills Two Face, and crashed a god damn truck. Not to mention, in some modern comics, Final Crisis for instance, he pulls a gun on Darkseid and tells him he's gonna kill him, because he's an incarnation of pure evil. Even in comics, Batman is fine with crossing the line if the person is bad enough. You'll defend the reckless driving and manslaughter when Nolan does it, but nooo not Batfleck. And when you consider than even comic Batman will cross the line if he deems it necessary, why is it so hard to believe an old, bitter, and jaded Batman is fine with just those things? And for the other anons saying that his most interesting characteristic is his no kill rule and not the detective aspect, you can fuck right off. You don't have to like the fucking movie, but stop acting like it's Not-Muh because it's a little more blatant.

yea but detective vision says their unconscious, you think a game would just lie to you like that?
>>
>>80956133
>I am not accountable for what Arkham Knight did, that one's gameplay doesn't count
, for the rest of them, I always cut them down after dropping them so I can use it again, electric boxes only pull away guns from electromagnetic charge, he only tosses them off ledges where the fall would be painful and crippling, not lethal, the game actually physically does not allow you to throw enemies off too high a ledge, Arkham game series would be the best medium for Batman movies, the story is awesome, the action is great, the characters are fun and its just really good.
Synder however... well he fucked everything.

>Batman doesn't kill people

Boi you ever played an Arkham game? Those guys are 10-15 above ground at any time, and if you've managed to kick them off of long dangerous drops you probably found an exploit in the game, I've hit them with full force RC batarrang while they stand next to a 100 foot drop, iviswall blocks them.
>>
>>80957096
It depends on what medium usually, but they're uncomfirmed kills, and in DC those don't really count/aren't ever mentioned, just because it dampens the hero, if we charged Batman for every probably murder he committed in the DC universe, Superman would be public enemy number one in every nation on Earth.
It is in movies like BvS, and those dorky fucking Tim Burton ones where he didn't even feel like a superhero because he murders people straight up no chance he didn't and I never liked those.

Thats more down to making it programmable, its just that ragdoll effects end up doing this sort of thing when they're in games, so it looks as though they would die. I agree the ground takedowns could be lethal sometimes because he punches a man's head into pavement, but a lot of the combat takedowns like the instant takedown combo move and his regular attacks wouldn't really kill you, in his instant takedowns, he usually dislocates something vital like an arm or a leg, and a punch from Batman to the face, while definitely agonizing and going to put you out in one shot, will not kill a full grown man.

Isnt that the character arc of the fucking movie.
