Ok so they are officially using The Dark Knight Returns for this movieGreat story and one of my favorites from DC; I figured they were using that one since they kept saying Batman is old and there are only a handful of Batman novels where Bruce is :oldnigsitdown:
My only issue is that they probably will leave the Joker section and other parts out of this movie...I guess TDKR is only meant to "inspire" this movie because the real adaption would be a Hard rated "R"
Its the same discussion I had with you with you before. It seems they are just picking a few parts here and there from the GN and rolling with it.
What made The Dark Knight Returns so great is that the villains started to emerge once he put back on the suit. There was history and animosity between Batman/Superman based on events from the past. Especially with what happened to Green Arrow. Guys like Two Face and Joker were having mid life crisis because of shyt from years ago dealing with Batman. Batman returning gave Joker "life" again.
If Batman is just some that beat up some unimpressive thugs over the years and is now matched up with/against Superman....
