BvS would you accept this rebooted version of batman killing people directly?

No.

Batman is not supposed to kill. My biggest problem with the 80-90s movie. Batman doesn't kill. Thats why the Joker last so long. BATMAN DOSN'NT KILL!!

I know there will be people pointing out any number of instances in the book, but fundamentally it's against his character.

 

Nope. I wrote this rant a while back:

You turn Batman into the Punisher and you strip him of one of the most complex things about his character and his story. Batman should not kill. It is what makes him Batman.

 

Could have sworn he killed Ra's, Harvey and Talia.

 

I really do not want an All-Star Batman adaptation, thank you very much.

 

Well, directly and intentionally are two different ways of doing it. Batman is directly responsible for killing Harvey and Talia. However, both instances were "chance killings", so to speak. I don't believe Batman wanted to kill them, but it happened.

Now, Michael Keaton's Batman killing the Joker is a different story. That works for that Batman, but I rather they not go down the route this go 'round, but I'm not holding my breath.

 

I will boycott the **** out of this new Batman if he directly kills like it's no problem.

 

to answer your question: no.

 

YES. A Million times YES.

 

Nope.

But it won't surprise me if they do.

 

Same here.

 

Batman wouldn't kill just because Superman did it. I know this argument probably fits another thread but the key thing here to remember is that Superman didn't willingly kill Zod otherwise the whole city wouldn't be leveled again after the world engine's destruction. Zod manipulated Supes into giving him by using his love of humans and the terrible horrors of what his powers can do as well as the fact he leaps before he looks against Clark. In essence, Zod really won that fight. This was seen in the Injustice: Gods Among Us comic where Joker & Scarecrow practically did the same thing and in essence won.

 

Lol

 

Oh Hope.......I really feel like crying when I read your comments now....lol.....I hope one day you'll be back.....will the real Hope please stand up....please stand up?....

 

If they are smart the conflict between Batman and Superman in this new film will arise because of what happened to Zod.

 

Meh, could go either way.

Maybe Batman has a no kill rule, and teaches it to Superman (which would suck for Superman).

Or maybe Batman will be killing too recklessly, and it'll teach Superman he needs to be setting a stronger example in that area (which would suck for Batman).

Or maybe they will do something totally different.

All i'm saying, is that none of the scenarios I can imagine in my head are beyond the realms of possibility. Because they've proven that they aren't afraid to mess with the characters a bit.

Sorry dude. That wide eyed, optimistic girl is gone... FOREVER!

 

noooooooo!......i will find her!

 

If anything, maybe they should present Batman in being close towards crossing that line of no return when it comes to how he handles criminals. He doesn’t kill them, but he handles him very brutally and there are times where it looks like he may kill them. His experiences in this film, and more notably with Superman, should help him discover that if he doesn’t change the way he operates as a costumed hero, then he could very well become the very villain that he’s sworn to fight against.

 

Yeah, Batman should taunt Supes for being a killer, until he realizes how cruel his words actually were, after realizing the importance of Clark in this world.
