I'm a major fan of black-on-black ER WAIT THAT CAME OUT WRONG I'm still talking about visual design, not porn. White Light/White Heat, the black vinyl edition of Blackstar, that's where it's at!

Back to BvS, the other major fuckup there is Superman's whole kamikaze sequence. How in all that is F could Kal-El fly holding a Kryptonite-pointed spear? And why didn't he pass it to Gal Gadot so she could stab Doomsday in the dick?

 

Or Batman. Like... literally there was no reason for him to be the one to do it. None. The reason given, "I have to," doesn't pass muster. Bullshit.

Batman was the villain of that movie. And yes, it was a MAJOR step backward from the Nolan films.

However, the Nolan films have had such a tremendous impact on film culture that they can stand on their own, and D.C.'s "Extended Universe" can crumble and fall into hell without tarnishing the legacy of those theee movies.

Frankly, I don't think Batman or the Joker or ANYONE in the Batverse shoukd even be attempted until the Dark Knight Trilogy is given at LEAST 10 years to settle.
