[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 2921914, member: 22622"] ERrr? So you DON"T like the batman from the comics. Because the batman from the comics is not some angry dude going around enacting vigilantism. Batman does or did feel guilt about his parents. That really came out when Jason Todd died during that story arch. It was even revisited during the episodes before the new crisis. Saying that batman's motiviation isnt his own guilt is just not supported by the comics. Frank Millers Dark Knight returns inspired the revamp of Batman, it isn't batman though. When batman first started, he used guns. Man he used anything he could get his hand on. He was sense refined. This is the movie paying homage to the characters beginings. Again , the character did not begin with Dark Knight returns. Batman's also not some hermit with a fetish for young wards and old butlers. Examining the bruce wayne persona will tell you that. If batman really was this super super brooding dude whom hated everyone, there'd be no need for a bruce wayne. He'd simply play it like bruce wayne is some old hermit. This is the beginning of batman. If you liked year one, You'd see that it doesnt miss a beat. Batman makes mistakes. Batman is not a sueprhero yet, he doesnt have the JLA on speed dial. This is a comic book movie. The movie doesnt have time to waste screentime on mindless rescues. Heck, in the comic they don't do it either. It is assumed that batman did not put the person at risk. Odly you complain about superman's time a year after batman, yet you would have liked it if batman wasted screentime rescuing everyone in the movie. Which is it? Do you want a longer movie or a shorter movie? Infilstructure? Again this is a comib book movie. Gotham's infiltructure is destroyed in every movie and dang near every other issue. It's comic book violence. Best example I can think of where there was major destruction was the fight scenes with bane and Azreal Batman. Sometimes you break some eggs to make an omlette. Thats a big part of hte batman mythos. Do what it takes without going too far. [/QUOTE]
