Well he pretty much straight up said Superman was immature and he didn’t see why people were objecting to his attempts to “grow up” the character. So... yeah. Yeah that’s exactly what it is.

Sure, but did anyone describe blowing up the schoolbus full of kids as fun? Because I’m willing to hazard a guess that they did not ever claim that was fun.

Yeah... manslaughter is when you kill someone by accident. Like you hit them with a car and didn’t mean to. When you use a car full of people as a wrecking ball, you know they’re gonna die, and you do it anyway. It wasn’t an accident, it just wasn’t pre-planned. That’s second degree murder.

... No, no it isn’t. I mean, if you’re mad about it on principle, maybe? But most people are mad about creators or artists killing characters for bad reasons that don’t work in context, or treat major character deaths without the respect they’re due. No one got mad when Spock got killed off, because it worked well in…

I don’t think anyone’s that upset Robin’s dead. I think it’s just Snyder’s unusual use of the word “fun” in regard to death. Jimmy Olson is dead! What fun! We killed Robin too, aren’t you having fun yet?

It’s not even a terrible, god awful thing to say, it’s just a weird choice of wording. Normally when we talk about…

Yeah, I’m kinda with you. I mean, having Hawkeye miss the shot was probably a bad call. Even in the Fraction run, if he wasn’t an awesome archer, something was very wrong. Even if he did get bashed in the head once an issue.

Aww, bowcase, no...

This is really, really well done... but I got to admit, I’m not crazy about this interpretation of Hawkeye. I always read Hawkeye as being more deadpan.

There doesn’t seem to be any blood on the actual mutant himself. Part of his coat is darkened, but that’s just a shadow. There’s no visible entry wound, and the splatter effect somehow misses the part of the wall where the bullet hole is. I’m told (and could be wrong) that Batman later claims he’s never killed anyone,…

False advertising maybe? I mean, they advertised this movie as Batman v Superman, but that was not Batman.

I will tell you one good thing about this whole mess: I really like Superman a lot more than I used to. I never hated him or anything, but I was not one to shy away from making comments about him being a dull boyscout.

This version of Superman is so screwed up that it made me really go back and re-evaluate the…

Haven’t seen the film, but I’m seeing a lot of people saying Superman seems uncaring and disconnected. It seems to me like everyone says the DC heroes are more iconic, larger than life symbols... which Snyder seems to have taken to mean “aloof Gods” rather than... icons who stand for values.

Fair enough! Can’t argue with that. Seriously though, does anyone know if lead blocks kryptonite in the comics, or was that just an early movie thing? I’m kinda curious now.

Supergirl’s “World’s Finest”: The superhero crossover we deserved and needed right now.

Also he gave us the best reaction video ever for when people are wrong.

I didn’t read or see 300 but it’s eery how much you’re echoing my comments on his version of Watchmen

I’m going to use a Doctor Who analogy. Once upon a time, the Sixth Doctor pushed a man into some acid (maybe he fell, but it looked awfully like he was pushed) made a pun about it and walked away with a smile on his face at the horrible death that just happened.

If a new version of the Doctor started doing James…

Well... how many people do you know from 1918 that are really computer savvy? ... I kid, I kid.

Yes... that is what he does. Why is he doing that? If he wants them dead... why isn’t he just killing them? If Batman is being pragmatic, killing them is definitely the way to go. You’re sure they’re dead, instead of relying on prisoners to do your dirty work for you, and you don’t have to lug a brand around. Not that…

Not positive he didn’t kill the Joker. I heard some rumors the Sucide Squad Joker is actually a legacy Joker, not the original. (I hope that’s true, because it’d actually be a pretty valid excuse for any character deviation, and I’m still sort of hoping Suicide Squad will be good)
