Zack Snyder Insults Fans Over Batman Changes

"I want to make a Batman movie, but I want to make him unalive people." "Then do a Red Hood movie." "No. You don't understand my vision. Can't you stand to have your god criticized?" "What?" "Exactly." "What?"

Batman doesn't think killing is bad just because it makes him the same as his villains, He refuses to kill because he's afraid of himself. He believes if he starts to kill ome villain he will kill all of them because he's afraid he'll enjoy killing them after having to put up with all the evil things he's witnessed them committing. He's also a deeply empathic person who after everything that's going on with his Rouges Gallery he truly believes he can help them. This is why the final line of Arkham City was so powerful "You know something funny? Even after all this...I would have still saved you"

I don't care what ppl say, I loved both man of Steel and Justice league Synder cut. Specially man of Steel

You called it brother they'd rather change a character until it's no longer recognizable as a character because they are too lazy and can't be creative enough to make a new one. "By name only" should be there new mantra

Batman not killing people is an integral part of the character. If he's going to kill, why even bother with Batman? Red Hood, Moon Knight and Punisher are all great characters, and I can see Zach making decent movies centred around any of them

Seems he never understood batman as a character and why he's no kill rule is matters. If you've watched under the red hood, which is a perfect movie, batman explains why he doesn't kill. If batman ever killed someone like the Joker, bruce would never stop it takes just one body for batman to go full-on kill mode. Snyder should've read more comics and watched the animated series. It shows he doesn't respect batman as a character, but instead, snyder puts his personal feelings in batman to kill, but that's not how it works. That's why i believe in james gunn more because he actually seems to follow the material of each character. Like when Superman saved a suicidal person in the comics, james gunn wants that in his movie to show Superman is a beacon of hope, not the snyder Edgy Superman. I hate that when people make superhero films, they put their own agenda and feelings onto that character instead of following the material that makes the character that character, not some punisher in a batman costume.

Batman did kill up to number 4# Batman stopped killing less than a year after his debut and only five months after he first started using a firearm. In Batman #4, the Cape Crusader acknowledged this rule openly for the first time during a swordfight with pirates, telling Robin: "Use only the flat of your sword,

people just noticing this now hahahahahaha... i really hate to always be the head of the curve

He's a good visual director but he can't write a story to save his life.

While I dont agree with his phrasing I do agree with his Initial IDEA from like 2012.. He said he wanted to make the DC Universe more realistic in the character behaviors. While I enjoyed it i understand why most of the fanbase will get upset because its not the character canon they love. The idea that batman can exist in a live action and refuse to kill is just goofy.. But thats me.

He really did peak with 300.

Batman's "no kill" rule is a slippery slope situation that has been argued and explained in almost all Batman media. If he kills them, he'll just go on to kill more, and then he won't be a vigilant hero; he'll be a killer no different from the people he puts away in Arkham or the one who killed his parents. (It might work for the Punisher, but they are not the same kind of character) Even cops in the real world can't go around shooting people with multiple crimes on their records because of due process is a thing If people think Batman should kill his villains, then why not argue that Gotham or Arkham institute a death penalty for recurring offenders or super villains?

After all this time he still doesn’t get it.

This is how it happened. This is how the Snyderverse died.

Well said 👍🏻

Nicely done.

goofy takes by him

I always saw it as Batman is kinda a zealot for justice. He wants to see all these people punished but he doesn’t know what’s fair. I think this “mission” has disconnected him from reality to a point that he doesn’t really understand what a fair punishment is anymore. That’s why he’s willing to beat a purse snatcher and the joker both half to death. The reason he doesn’t kill is because once that becomes an option for completing his mission, it will be the most effective and therefore the only one he uses. It definitely is his fault, but I at least can see it from the angle that he’s kinda lost his humanity and recognizes that.

Batman has already killed in movies, 89 Tim Burton killed the Joker; and in Batman Returns, He a lot of the Penguin's bad guys, Not to mention Frank Miller : Dark Knight Returns !

First! I have never been first in ANYTHING
