dc extended universe - Batman breaking his own rule against killing



Why has Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman shown brazen killings by Batman?


It might have been okay if the killings were not direct, but he shoots and blasts off individuals by directly targeting them in the movie.


Does it depend on the personal choice of the artist or Batman has no such rules or does he have a different set of rules that I didn't understood correctly?


I mean if the DCEU is involved, shouldn't the character be more sticked to the DC comics version of Batman?



Answer



It certainly depends on the version of Batman or indirectly the artist(comics/script writer).



In-fact Batman did kill, and it's all part of the comics too. But again, Batman choosing a gun is paradoxical, as you might have looked at that



nightmare dream sequence during which the pearls of necklace of his mother, Martha Wayne, are loaded into the pistol instead of bullets.



As far as Zack Snyder's Batman is concerned, he gave an interview in which he explained that why he made his version of Batman so brutal. To be honest, I couldn't buy it.


Update: Zack Snyder on death of Robin explains the current psychological state of Batman. I'm not saying that he is psychotic, but he is definitely unstable, and all this justifies the beast(pun definitely not intended) he has become. But it is similar to that of Alfred Tennyson. When you lose someone you care about, you are vulnerable to emotional setback. Thus, he is not the same Batman. He is more brutal, his killer instincts are at peak.
But hopefully, Batman will get over with it, after all. He is vengeance! He am the night! He is the goddamn Batman!

harry potter - Did Dolores Umbridge Have Any Association with Voldemort (or Death Eaters) before His Return?

I noticed that Dolores Umbridge was born during the first Wizarding War, so it's very likely she wasn't a Death Eater then (but she is pretty evil -- who knows?). After that Voldemort was not around in a way that could affect many people, and most wouldn't know he was planning to rise again. During that time, and up through Voldemort's return (in Goblet of Fire ), did Umbridge have any connection with the Death Eaters or with Voldemort? Was she doing what she did on her own, or was it because of an association with Voldemort or his allies? Answer Dolores Umbridge was definitely not a good person. However, as Sirius points out, "the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters". Remember that he also says that he doesn't believe Umbridge to be a Death Eater, but that she's evil enough (or something like that). I think there are two strong reasons to believe that: Umbridge was proud to do everything according to the law, except when she trie...

futurama - How much time is lost in 'Time Keeps on Slippin''

In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.

aliens - Interstellar Zoo story

I vaguely remember this story from my childhood: it was about an interstellar zoo that came to Earth with lots of bizarre and unusual species, and humans would file through and gape at all the crazy looking creatures from other planets. The twist came at the end when the perspective shifted to the other side of the bars and we discovered that the "creatures" were traveling through space on a kind of safari. They thought they were the visitors and we were the animals. Neither side knew that the other side thought they were the zoo creatures. Answer Got it. Zoo, by Edward D. Hoch. Published in 1958.

harry potter - What is the difference between Diffindo and Sectumsempra?

In the Harry Potter books, Diffindo is called the 'Severing Charm' and it’s most commonly used to cut ropes and the like. However, in the last book Hermione uses it on Ron but misses, creating a 'slash in his jeans' and his knee gets cut, causing him to 'roar in pain'. We've only seen Sectumsempra used once on screen when Harry directly uses it on Malfoy in the sixth book, but there it's mentioned that he is 'waving his wand wildly'. Wouldn't Diffindo, if used in such a fashion also cause a similar effect? Similarly, if it was able to cut Ron, it would also be able to, say, chop off an ear (George's)? In that case, how are these two spells different, except for Sectumsempra seemingly used exclusively to hurt humans? Answer While Diffindo and Sectumsempra both can be countered by other spells, Diffindo is far more easily countered. Reparo, a relatively common spell, can completely reverse its effect when used once. “He pulled the old cop...
