Just film yourself taking a slow motion shit on a copy of the trade paperback and it’ll have the same effect.

I thought his version of Batman was the Dark Knight Returns version?

I hate the Dark Knight Returns (apart from Carrie Kelly) and I hate how much influence it had on BVS.

But I HATE the influence it has had on comics in general. And mostly from people who have no idea what it was really all about and just think Batman badass cool edgy.

As a completely separate, Elseworlds story I don't like it, but it works. The influence it's had on everything else is what truly made me hate it.

Dark Knight Returns is a classic. But it's also nearly 40 years old, has been homaged and referenced countless times& already adapted.

There's already a movie adaptation of Dark Knight Returns and there's nothing at all Snyder could add to it.

Add me to the "Dark Knight Returns is lame" camp. Its not as bad as some of Miller's other Batman work but it really does feel like the genesis point of a lot of the thing that made his work horrible. And for something that's supposed to be a deconstruction it's absolutely tone-deaf about every superhero it uses who isn't Batman.

He is friendly towards Bruce B. Batman would absolutely get his ass kicked by Superman Most people seem to miss point b. Including Miller himself in later books

The Dark Knight Returns is a lot like Alan Moore's comics where they're great but so many people miss the point of the stories. The only difference is that Miller himself is included with that group now. >_>

I think Dark Knight Returns is good but it has issues and there are a lot of signs of Miller's later insanity in there like random Nazi boobs woman.

Considering how Snyder doesn't understand the source material he uses, I wouldn't be surprised if an adaptation The Dark Knight Returns looks and feels like 60s Batman.

Oh you want to do The Dark Knight Returns?
What a cool and new take.
So original.

Somewhere Ben Affleck is taking a massive drag on a cigarette, staring up into the sky, and cursing Snyder for provoking 15 more years of Snyder cultists calling for his return as Batman.

Again... he did the Dark Knight Returns... like at least half of Batman's parts from Batman v (not VS! cause reasons!) Superman was The Dark Knight returns. Again Snyder doesn't understand subtlety.

"And with modern editing techniques, we can make Snyder's Dark Knight Returns without having him film a single shot"
(Plays every scene with Bruce only until he meets Clark, and the entire last act of Batman v Superman)
"You're fired"
"And with good cause"
