Relatable and human superhero stories are much more popular than the interpretation that they're a level above us. His DCEU movies being a perfect example. It's because he fundamentally doesn't understand the characters. Snyder is a Randian Objectivist, and Objectivists reject altruism: they don't believe in it because they don't accept that someone could do something purely out of the goodness of their heart with no ulterior motive. Remember Bruce and Bary's conversation in Justice League? "So what's your superpower?" "I'm rich." That wasn't a joke. That was a window into how he sees things. Snyder is a poor choice to do anything with Superman because Superman is possibly the ultimate altruistic character in comics: he's a guy with the power of, for all intents and purposes, a god, yet he refuses to use that power in selfish ways and tries as hard as he can to help the most people, never asking anything in return. Similarly, Bruce is also altruistic, though in a darker way: as was said in Kingdom Come, when you strip everything else away from the Batman, you're left with someone who doesn't want to see anyone else die. That is the reason he refuses to kill. --- The world may be going to Hell, but I am personally awash with convenience. <cite>DiScOrDtHeLuNaTiC posted [p:979244651] in Zack Snyde...

How can you be a fan of DC charecters and endorse what zack has done to them in his films. It's actually sad people want more of his material especially after spouting this garbage. --- XBL: Mrpicardbottoms PSN: Bosh369 <cite>apocalyptic_4 posted [p:979245746] in Zack Snyde...

Glob 03/07/24 6:35:48 PM #43:	RchHomieQuanChi posted... He killed ~~Talia AL Ghul~~. Youre right. I had forgotten that. I try to forget as much about that film as possible. I believe The Batman is the first movie where he actually avoided killing anybody, even indirectly. Yeah, I cant think of anybody in that who he kills. Though, once again, I try to forget that film. <cite>Glob posted [p:979245890] in Zack Snyde...

Gray_Areas 03/07/24 6:42:26 PM #46:	PballDepot posted... Nolan had no problem making some incredible Batman movies with the no kill philosophy Batman definitely killed people in those movies. Or at the very least, he explicitly caused damage that directly resulted in several deaths and went out of his way to let people die when he could have otherwise saved them. They make a big deal about Batman causing Dent's death at the end of The Dark Knight, but he also intentionally exploded the League of Shadows' hideout which we know killed people and sabotaged the train (with Gordon's help destroying the railway) which directly led to Ra's al Ghul's deathan act that Batman knows will result in Ra's al Ghul's death and has the opportunity to save him but actively choses not to in Batman Begins and shot Talia Al Ghul's car leading to her and her driver crashing and dying in The Dark Knight Rises. That's not to mention all of the other random goons he definitely maims or mortally wounds in each movie. <cite>Gray_Areas posted [p:979246035] in Zack Snyde...

Prismsblade 03/07/24 6:46:31 PM #47:	Synder is probably the biggest fraud director to ever grace Hollywood. He didnt know, understand or even like these characters. Thought he would succeed by speed reading a few popular storys and ended up tanking the DCUE entirely due to his ego. Hell and he may even have poisoned the DCU beyond repair also. --- 3DS FC:3368-5403-9633 Name: Kaizer PSN: Blackkaizer <cite>Prismsblade posted [p:979246110] in Zack Snyde...
