The second one actually annoyed me with all the problems in it. First off, a single nuke would not cause a nuclear winter, otherwise we would have been in one after the two that hit Japan in WW2. Secondly, superman made no sense at all. He would never sell out his beliefs so that totally goes against his character design even if it was in that Frank Miller comic. Superman can't leach the life out of plants like some photosynthesis vampire. Never has he been able to do that. He also could have fully recharged by flying above the cloud line and Superman IS smart enough to know that. One thing I don't understand and is never shown in that film is how Joker can put on poison lipstick without being poisoned himself because he never put on wax or plastic on his lips. Oh and then when Batman and girl robin just flat out try to kill the guy, what the heck? I just don't see why batman would give a tank with fully lethal ammo and weapons to a kid to use. Honestly, I see this as the start of Frank Miller's decline into stupidity. I know comics have suspension of disbelief but there is a limit. You can't just do a "Because comics aren't real" to explain BS stuff because most comics do use real world logic when it comes to tech and physics that do currently exist. Yes this is just my opinion and I did kinda enjoy the film, but I had to shut my brain off to do so. If you need to shut down the ability to process BS to enjoy something, they did a poor job of writing it. I am hoping they just cut out a lot of important things from the comic that would have explained why these holes happened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
