And yet, the Daredevil tv show blows all of this out of the water by showing a man going through nearly the exact same struggles, struggling with taking the "necessary" action of crossing that line, and dealing with it FAR better, without EVER actually deliberately crossing that line.
They told a FAR better arc around the exact same themes and concerns.
So? That's also a TV show. There's more time to develop and explore concepts and themes in a TV show. Most good shows do a far better job exploring any character arcs and themes than a film can generally do. There are serious limitations to film.
Also, doesn't Daredevil rather intentionally throw a guy off the roof in Season 2? Not the guy he drops off the roof who he just magically knows will be fine...isn't there like a ninja he tosses off the roof toward the end of the season?
If Batman is going to address his killing ways, it will likely happen in a Batman solo film. It'd be like if we were going to see an arc about Aquaman struggling with his role as a monarch in a complete arc, you'd expect to see that in AQUAMAN.
