This thread is to talk about the references/homages for Frank Miller's the dark knight returns in the movie. There are a lot.
the whole opening scene of the Wayne murders was taken shot by shot from the book
The obvious one, and a great twist, is the ending - [BLACKOUT] in the book it's Bruce who "dies" and in the movie it's Clark. Love the subtle heartbeat and dirt moving on the coffin.[/BLACKOUT]
We talk about movies having flaws but so do books and The Dark Knight Returns is not without its fair share of flaws. But despite the obvious flaws of this book it's universally loved and right so. The references that they used in BvS is just so exciting to me especially as many of them feel right off the page.
