His name wasn't on them, they were just rare because they were prototypes.
Batman knew it was a remnant of the kryptonian tech and found suspicious that Lexcorp was interested in it, since Lexcorp had dealings with the military complex.
Because Perry White is aware that Superman and Clark are one and the same. Even if you ignore that he knew it was something personally and deeply important for Lois and he cares for her.
Because that senator got excited with the discovery Lex had made and wanted to see what more Lexcorp could discover with the right resources.
Because Lex had lost the key witness, who he had bought off to lie, and knew that her testimony was what got the ball rolling. He had also found out that the senator lady was a honest lady with altruistic intentions that actually wanted to hear what Superman had to say and not put a stop to him, which wouldn't help him at all. So he had to put a stop to the hearing, since he only used that as a bogus shit to do his smear campaign against Superman, not as an actual valid thing.
Superman wasn't fast enough to save Jimmy Olsen because Superman isn't some god like people make him out to be.
Nothing in the movie says he was in the USA while Lois was in Africa. The movie made it explicit that he constantly keeps an ear out for Lois, something he stopped doing for his mother. Lex subtlety pointed out he started to care more about Lois than his mother in that regard. They also cut out the scene where he tries to find out his mom in Metropolis and Gotham with his super-senses while flying.
Because Lois had told Superman and Batman that Lex was doing some weird shit with the Scout Ship that could be seen from afar, and Batman offered himself to save Superman's mother while Superman could go out to see what Lex was up to and put a stop to him.

What's the point of giving your clandestine operations group who you hire to do untraceable wetwork bullets that can be easily identified and traced back to you?

Considering that the only person who could link them to LexCorp was an incredibly high-ranking official that was in no way willing to go on record with it, I'd say it wasn't all that easy to link them.

hey man keep promoting me that's dope. I'm stoked I've never had a butthurt stalker before.

As for
>Why would you post that Superman's "LITERALLY ALWAYS BEEN JESUS"
Where exactly did I say that?
What I said was
>Constantly putting characters literally standing in front of metaphorical renaissance paintings and constantly making them awkwardly recreating them is like the textbook definition of "obvious." Superman was always Jesus, you don't need to literally make him that.
But sure you can latch on to that all you want. won't make BvS a good movie though
>then act like you'd never said that or held that totally fallacious belief?
It's not really a "fallacious" belief at all. Parallels between Superman and Jesus have been made since his inception.

I love this shit though. Keep it coming spank me daddy go through all my 4plebs. Keep illustrating the desperate lengths by which you have to go to defend a shitty kids movie lol.
>>83883184
Are you talking about the stalker or me studying a movie and shitposting about it? Because the answer is yes to both.
>>
>>83883335
It was still enough. There's just no point in having those special bullets. I mean bullets are really simple stuff. Why do you even need special bullets? What if they wear out your barrels too much? What if they're too light or too heavy? It's just such a bizarre way to make a reveal.
>>
>>83883031

They were prototypes. Either way, Lex knew that no one could pin him down to these things because if his involvement was made clear in them he could fuck the US and that wasn't going to happen. Lex probably did that to be smug about it.

>>83883092

Lex sent tons of shit to Bruce in order to compound his sense of guilt and rage in a effort to propel him forward to act against Superman.
>>
>>83883325
I don't need an excuse. What's yours?

As I recall, it's that you get off on abuse. You must be in heaven right now, getting called out on all your misconceptions, your inability to cede even the most elementary of points, and just being a general dickhead.

The militia actually dug out the bullets from the dead bodies, though. The only bullet they lost was the one that was embedded in Lois' laptop, since she was rescued by Superman right away.

>>83883414
>both of you are fucking pathetic, how many hours have you spent circlejerking angrily about a year old capeshit movie?
A lot. But I don't shitpost BvS angrily. I love the movie. It's one of my favorite bad movies ever. I enjoy the intricacies by which almost everything was a misfire.
>give it a break you pathetic fuck

What's the point? It's not like you can't clearly see those people were shot first, burned second. They should've just brought flamethrowers. Or maybe some kind of laser weapons, then you'd have a justification for a super special prototype that can be linked back to LexCorp being lost. A heat gun, made to imitate Supes' eye lasers.

>>83883666
>>83883721
Well, then they didn't have to go through procedure of tracking and removing all those bullets, then? But they did remove them, but they didn't bother making it look believable. And if they used non-special bullets, they wouldn't even have to remove them. Bullets ricochet, you know. It's a pain trying to find one if you don't know where it went.

Besides, you'd think that something as dire as an implication that world's most powerful creature has anger issues would attract some serious investigation.
>>
>>83883260
And thank god for that. Personally, I'd rather have him doing that than someone like Joss Whedon shoving clichéd Wonder-bread-man down my throat even though that's already been done with Reeves' Superman, and part of the reason why Superman has such declining sales in his comics.

No one wants to read about a goody-two-shoes that's perfect and infallible (as if Superman was ever infallible), they want to read a heroic drama. Like the Death of Superman, probably the most important, noted, and climactic event in comics history. Sorry kid, but the time of Superman saving Lois by flying the earth backwards is over.

That seems like a rather flimsy justification for your anger. And we all know you're never going to actually make a movie, so out-the-window goes that excuse. So all we're left with is some autistic faggot that has a subconscious trigger towards BvS, even though it's not that bad.

I also just saw Suicide Squad last night and it wasn't that bad either.

At the very least, they were more interesting than Marvel's films, which are always surface-level, always have the same exact plots and formula's, and always have the same exact character designs.

He was the 26th best selling issue in April.

He hasn't even cracked the top 10 in years. He's selling below X-O Manowar, Venom, and Iron Fist. And he hasn't sold better than Batman in decades.

>They tried this with the new-52, and it was despised.

Wrong, they had an increase in market share after it launched, and the primary complaint was about the actual reboot, which was annoying, but barely anyone cared about Superman even after the New 52 reboot.

That's something that kinda-sorta would make some comicbooky sense, kind of like the ice bullet of the legend, but the wound channels would still be there, and it's not mentioned in the movie. And the same alloy was used in the wheelchair, which exploded and the alloy was still identifiable.

He let his government torture and kill people in the Gurlags. That's one of the many reasons why Russian Batman tried to kill him. He even let Brainiac brainwash people.

Yeah, before he took over. That's because he was raised by Stalin, but after he became the ruler there was none of that, right?

>No wound channels if they body is incinerated.
If it's ash perhaps, but if it's a burned carcass, like in the movie (I think they show something like that?), you can still find them. Also you can analyze the lungs, they look really differently if somebody was burned alive or dead. Unless everything is ash, but that's not how it was in the movie.

Lex thought he could control Doomsday. That's not a plot-hole, just a character being fucked by his own hubris.

If you're going to complain about that, you should complain about all the other times Lex thought he could control his Superman clones.

>>83884733

Because he was thinking of Superman as an alien, so he probably was referring to his alien parents.

He also stopped later because he started to see Superman as his own father and had time enough to be explained the context of the wider situation.

A plothole is a contradiction in conveyed events, not something you aren't satisfied with the explanation of. Just for example, as for Batman knowing about kryptonite, how is that a plothole at all? Are you saying there is no way Batman could have found out about it? Just because they don't explain it doesn't make it a plothole. Is the death of the protagonist in no country for old men a plothole because he died off screen?

Answer the question. The movie gives no good explanation as to why Batman would become fixated on killing Superman. Superman has literally done nothing wrong. The people who were killed/injured in his fight with Zodd were not his fault and everyone, besides Batman for some reason, understands that

>>83884864
I think he turned on Braniac when he realized what was he doing, though? I'm sorry, it's been a while.

The fact that he stood there all smug and proud when Doomsday stepped out says he did. Specially when he got scared shitless when Doomsday tried to punch him.

>>
>>83884886
How's this one?

It's part of Bruce's response to grief. As a child, he lost his parents to a criminal, and he devoted his entire life to punishing them in one fashion or another.

Now the target of his grief is an alien, and there only seems to be one of those around and he sees him as something of an existential threat to boot.

Go ahead and call it head canon. I'm always up for a laugh.

Batman was starting to feel that his life and struggle had been meaningless because Gotham was still a shit-hole, he let Robin die, his old friends had become villains (probably a reference to Two-Face), he failed to protect his employees and so on. He felt so shitty that he started to see his brand of heroism to be a lie. That he was just as bad as the criminals he had spent 20 years fighting.

Superman existence and the chaos he brought with him made Batman feel even more powerless and make him start to project his own perceived failings onto Superman. He thought that what Superman was trying to do was as meaningless and counterproductive as what he did in these last 20 years in Gotham. That Superman, just like him, wasn't helping no one, he was doing the opposite, and that one day Superman would wake up to that realization and then what? What would be Superman reaction? Batman was just a guy, but Superman was almost a god. He could very well destroy the world in a tantrum. And even if it didn't come to that he was still making a mess of the world in his vain attempt to feel important.

So Batman had to stop him for the sake of everyone, which of course is a lie because he was doing it to feel better about himself. Batman whole hate for Superman is misplaced and he's actually just trying to validate his life, give his years of struggle some meaning back, and he thinks that sacrificing his own life trying to stop Superman can be it.

Yep. Lost interest when the directors cut didn't add anything interesting. Decided it would be a waste of time to bother editing it.

Eh I mostly work in production. You know. Execution of ideas. I study movies and write as a hobby. It's funny that this is so confounding of a concept to the teenagers on this board that want to defend bad movies.

I wrote the paper edit. That was what I set out to do. Cool strawman though. Sounds like a real piece of shit.

Absolutely true. Seems like this sentiment applies to you too m8. What exactly have you produced? What have you created? You're making a pretty active effort to "shit on other people's work" while doing nothing at all.

I'll never be sorry about the projects I embark on. Learned a lot faffing about on Batman versus The Superman last summer. Always worked on 2 features and a tv show last summer. What did you do?

The 2 Superman books sell 90k copies. That's very good in todays market. Those aren't bad numbers.

As a tent-pole comic of DC, those ARE bad sales, you can either own up to it, and admit you were wrong, or you can merely continue to troll.

And yes, this year, Superman's sales have been declining. I'm not going to go back to when BvS released, or when Man of Steel released, where there were obvious interest-bumps in his characters sales, which even then, merely the month AFTER BvS released, he instantly fell to #50

I'm well aware. You said you abandoned your "project" when the director's cut didn't add anything new, when you were "working on an idea" in a post you made just two months ago. So either you weren't working on shit when you made that post, or you'd never seen the director's cut and despite your professed obsession, you couldn't instantly spot the differences between the two cuts of the film after better than a dozen viewings.

Either you're shit at explaining yourself, you have shit memory, or you talk out of your ass so much you can't even keep your own bullshit straight. Those are your options and not one of them is particularly flattering.

Except you're wrong about your Christ analogy (specific to that story you pulled)

The reference in the film to Lex Luthor's jar wasn't a reference to that, nor was Snyder criticizing the "realist" interpretation of Superman, he was reveling in it trying to entertain the moral and political difficulties that would come with the character, not as a way to criticize and demean, but as a way to show how to over-come, that it's okay to make mistakes, that the evolution and sacrifice and weight involved in being capable of doing something also comes with the weight of responsibility, and that you will not always be loved for it.

I'm summarizing, but those are the major themes present with Snyder's Superman.
>>
>>83886239
That it went down too fast for a street-level Bruce Wayne to have been in any way prepared for it. Nothing about this Bruce gives any indication that he'd ever looked beyond the streets of Gotham. It took him a full two years to up his game to the point where he felt confident challenging *one* Kryptonian, let alone an entire ship's compliment. There's also a time factor. From the time the Kryptonian ship dropped out of orbit to hover Metropolis to the conclusion of the Zod fight was somewhere in the neighborhood of twenty minutes' time.

Now obsessively nitpick something else.

It's a deconstruction of a different sort. It's essentially stripping the depiction of the overwhelmingly comic-booky elements and approaching the Batman from the angle of "OK, if a lunatic billionaire were to actually do this, what could he semi-realistically do? What would it look like?"

Sorry - I misread that. I thought you were talking about Nolan's Dark Knight,


From a modern perspective, TDKR doesn't look like a deconstruction, as pretty much everything that followed it was influenced by it, but there had never been anything quite like its depictions of either Batman or Superman before. It was Batman at his most brutal and grim and nothing like it had been seen in his comics in the whole of DC's Silver Age.

They're just bullets.

He's a detective and super-intellegent. He makes it his business to know things, especially the counters of super powered alien gods that he thinks may pose a threat to earth.

Lex has money and power and intellect and intimidated him into submission.

He blew up Congress to prove the fallibility of Superman, who he knew was present, and wouldn't predict the bomb.

He can't save everybody.

He had to go deal with Lex, as well as "Batman" owed him one.

yes it very much so does. The entire Lois narrative is her figuring out that the bullets where specially made by fucking LexCorp. They spent literally 5 scenes dealing with the LexCorp bullet.
>He's a detective and super-intellegent.
That's fine. But THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT KNEW ABOUT KRYPTONITE AND HAD STUDIED IT'S EFFECTS ON ZOD'S BODY WHERE LEXCORP EMPLOYEES.

Superman knows what Kryptonite is and can do at the start of the movie. He doesn't learn that LexCorp has it until like 40 minutes later. How did he know what it could do without knowing that it was LexCorp that was doing secret tests on it?
>He's smart and trying to be dramatic
But he says "fight night!" like he knows it's a challenge to Superman. And even more to the point, if he knew they had a standing fight night date if Batman lit the light, why bother kidnapping Lois? Lot of risk to force Superman to do something you thought he was going to do anyway. The whole plan relied on Superman, who can hear when Lois is in a pickle in Africa, not hearing his mom getting kidnapped or held a few blocks away.
>Lex has money and power and intellect and intimidated him into submission.
And how did molesting that one senator get him access to everything? And how is it good writing to have the antagonist molest someone and just get everything they need in their first scene?
>He blew up Congress to prove the fallibility of Superman, who he knew was present, and wouldn't predict the bomb.
Again his whole plan depends on Superman not being Superman. And also, committing treason terrorism and mass murder to "show the fallibility" of Superman would maybe be more interesting if it had any lasting effect on the story or an actual purpose.
>He can't save everybody.
Except for the girl that fucks him.

It was one of the turning points of Batman. They tried getting back to the gritty detective work in the late 60's/early 70's, but that didn't help revitalize Batman's image and dwindling sales too much, it was Frank Miller's hand that resurrected the Dark Knight back to the forefront.

The reason I say it isn't a deconstruction, is because Frank Miller's writing was very earnest, and didn't contain cynicism directed at Batman, or his mythos. It hinted at it when he was fighting the Joker, but that was more along the lines of his character not being criticized but acknowledging his missteps and contrivances, and correcting them.

I still think this is one of the penultimate moments of the Batman mythos (even if it's non-canon), up there with Bane breaking him:

That would be relevant if I was actually wrong. I never said Superman's sales are "terrible" I never even said they were "bad", I merely stated that they were declining, and behind a lot of other no-namers on a regular basis.

The thing that bugs me the most in this movie is some how Lex Luthor finds out who superman is and batman doesn't. That just seems like the dumbest thing ever.

Just so you know, odds are better than even that you're arguing with a disingenuous asshole that strawmans like a motherfucker and actually thinks calling out a strawman on the other side is how you debate one.

I've never seen an interview with him that talks about the angle I'm speaking to, maybe because no interviewer has ever asked about it, but I've always kind of thought that Miller dropped a none-too-subtle message into TDKR about what he thought of the violence and outright killing that was weaseling its way back into comics around that time. I felt like when no one got it, he ramped it up even further in subsequent works.

It was either that or he was taking a jab at the state of the industry at the time by surrounding Bats with hyper-violent "mutants."
>>
>>83888147
http://www.avclub.com/article/frank-miller-13748

This interview is pretty all-encompassing.

In terms of The Dark Knight Returns, he states that he was rebelling against what comics were doing, and what he considered the "lame-ness"

>Because when I did the first one, I was very much rebelling against all the established stuff, like the old TV show. Just how lame all the stuff had become

He has hero's killing in all of his comics, so I doubt that was a cynicism he had towards the comics industry, and more of what he thought that it needed, gravity and weight to the characters to make them more appealing and interesting. Which is one of the reasons why he killed off Elektra.

Other than casual hyperbole in relation to a cartoonishly common concept. Everybody understands that Superman is and has been cast as a christlike figure for decades.

Yeah there's literally never been any instance in the history of Superman where he has been paralleled with Jesus. DC wasn't making comic books for white christian Americans in the 1950s. There haven't been christian allusions to Superman in literally every Superman movie.

You having an autistic brain bubble because it was created by 2 jews WHO BASED HIM ON ABRAHAMIC RELIGIOUS FIGURES, doesn't negate the point I was making then and it certainly doesn't now. It mostly makes you look like a fucking lunatic. How many conversations have we had? The only "gotcha" you can come up with from a year of shitposting is that I said it wasn't an original idea for Snyder to paint Superman as a Jesus figure?

Holy fuck. I mean I'm flattered I guess.

>Or did I "misread" you outlining a project 2 months ago and talking about it as an ongoing thing
I said it as an "ongoing thing" today too m8. And I would have only been talking about it 2 months ago if someone asked about it from when I was talking about it over the summer. I still have the paper edit. I have no intention, right now, on ever doing anything with it, but as I said earlier, if there's useable shit in the Justice League movie I may come back to it. Who knows? You've clearly given it more thought than I have. Maybe you should do it.

>Get some fucking help.
I mean, I kind of want to recommend that to you unironically. Do you seriously not see your level of obsession and bitterness toward another person as unhealthy? Do more with your life man. I appreciate your concern but maybe you should focus more on how you're advancing your life than the means by which I live mine?

>Everybody understands that Superman is and has been cast as a christlike figure for decades.

"Decades" and mulish insistence on "LITERALLY ALWAYS" do not equate to "casual hyperbole", you backpedaling cunt. Admit you were wrong for once and notice how the sky stays aloft.

Or hey, go ahead and find an instance of Superman being portrayed as a Christ figure in 50s America. I'll wait. I'll wait all day. They'd have burned those copies in the streets. If John Lennon couldn't get away with a casual comparison of the Beatles' popularity to Jesus's in the 60s, you honestly think that overt characterization of a comics character would, pardon the pun, fly? As a Christian? Sure. Respectful of Christianity? Oh, definitely. AS Christ? Not in your wildest dreams.

Furthermore, you're wholly misrepresenting the argument. I was saying then as I'm saying now that he wasn't being depicted as exclusively Christian in nature. Yes, it's the most overt and with good reason. That's what will resonate most strongly with a Western audience and will play back into the plot that's developing and how it ties back into belief and worship in regards to the New Gods.

>I said it as an "ongoing thing" today too m8.
So have you abandoned it or is it ongoing? Which is it? You've said both. Make up your fucking mind.

>And I would have only been talking about it 2 months ago if someone asked.
Nah, you volunteered it as your reason for watching the film 15 times. Sort of gushed about it, really.

>Maybe you should do it.
Or hell, maybe you get off your ass and actually fucking do it. We could use the laugh.


>Do you seriously not see your level of obsession and bitterness toward another person as unhealthy?
The irony levels are off the fucking charts. You backhandedly insult Snyder at every opportunity and you're going to talk to me about MY obsessive hate? When he ends up shot, I know the call I'm dropping to the police will name the "obsessive Zach Galifrianakis poster."

You had kids in the 50's reading things like Vault of Horror, I doubt seeing hero's casually kill a couple people was hardly traumatizing.

Then again, Batman was never aimed particularly at young children anyway, it had a broader pulp appeal.

Where did I say LITERALLY ALWAYS?
>Constantly putting characters literally standing in front of metaphorical renaissance paintings and constantly making them awkwardly recreating them is like the textbook definition of "obvious." Superman was always Jesus, you don't need to literally make him that.
That was the statement. I said they didn't need to literally paint him as jesus because Superman=Jesus is culturally understood. Whether or not I doubled down on it after you got triggered is certainly possible. But I generally don't shitpost sober so I'll be goddamned if I remember.
>you backpedaling cunt.
lol Superman is and has been cast as Jesus since the golden era. cry more about it m8. You sperging that he was technically created by jews that based him on abrahamic figures means nothing, particularly in a conversation about movies.

I'VE ALWAYS SAID IT WAS EXCLUSIVELY ALLUSIONS TO ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS in Snyder movies. But Superman is unambiguously paralleled with Jesus in BvS and you're being a fucking liar if you try and refute that.
>So have you abandoned it or is it ongoing? Which is it?
Both. That's what life is dingus. I wrote the paper edit, decided not to bother in the effort given that it would have been a lot of time spent to work on a project that has only generated interest from butthurt stalkers. But I still have all the shit and if the impulse hits me I can certainly follow up if I want.

There definitely deserves to be a niche of Superhero's that pertain to the Silver Age values of just being silly, or care-free, or just generally family friendly.

But not everything needs to be mature and appeal strictly to adults or young adults. I mean, when done right, even content aimed at a child audience can still be impactful to an adult audience, like with The Lion King.

You're sperging right now, bro, and blurring the argument.

You doubled down on it super fucking hard and super fucking early, while I and at least two or three other people repeatedly tried to make the point that there was more than just Christian imagery present in the film, just not all of it would be as instantly recognizable to a Western audience.

>There's nothing wrong with having comics like Spawn, Punisher, Lobo, etc.

I totally agree. My real issue revolves around Wolverine, and it started back in the early 80s, specifically with that miniseries he had with Kitty Pryde. That's where it really started to take off.

To me, the X-Men and their associated characters had always sort of straddled the line between kid-friendly and not, but once things started to really take off with Claremont, they took a dark turn. A GREAT turn, in my opinion, but not necessarily anything I'd look on as being appropriate for 8 and 9-year old kids to just pick up off the newstands.

To me, they were the heroes who, while still marketed as kid-friendly heroes, never really had any hard, fast lines when it came to killing, especially with guys like Logan.

Depends a lot on your own personal values when assessing what you think is appropriate and not...I mean, when I was young, a kid came into Show and Tell with a fucking Starship Troopers arachnid bug...A toy from an R rated film, marketed at kids, and this had to be when I was like 6 or 7.
