It's one of those situations where absolutely no-one is happy.
SJWs are mad because Barbara is built up then shot and forgotten. Soggy knees are mad because there's 30 minutes of Babs at all. Batman/Joker fans are mad because it completely missed the point. Babs fans are mad because it turned her into a whiny bitch who assaults random people. Film fans are mad because it feels like two unrelated TV show episodes spliced together, barely any thematic cohesion. Cartoon fans are mad because it's all animated in powerpoint. Drawfags are mad because instead of the trippy losing-your-mind artstyle of the original they just paint-by-numbers'd it. Moore is mad because he's always mad. Timm is mad because he made everybody else mad. Everyone's fucking mad.
All it takes is one bad film

Why are you starting a thread with my post, user? Do you have no original thoughts of your own?
Oliver Taylor
that's Sup Forumss way of complimenting you, that your content will gather (You)s, the only point of this infernal board anymore
Bentley Turner
That's very rude, 'friend'. I found this post in the archive, and thought it's a great analysis, then decided to post it as an OP because it deserves better exposure and can propel another fun thread with about a current release.
Lincoln Jenkins
It won't, though. That's a fairly commonly held observation and even those who disagree with it don't disagree fervently enough to care arguing with it.
Matthew Sanders
The Joker is happy that everyone is mad.
Connor Johnson
So how does a film go about fucking up this badly? So much went wrong there had to be a coordinated effort to ruin it.
Carter Cook
the ending was fucking awful. why did they end it like that? also in the comic, they showed the comissioners cock.
Henry Sullivan
Their shitty, flat artstyle completely butchered the moody atmosphere of the comic, and that massive prelude with the mafia upstart added absolutely nothing. TKJ just didn't need adapting, it was short and sweet and great as it was. I can't blame Alan Moore for asking his name top be pulled from this, it's so fucking unneccessary
Noah Johnson
Really? I don't remember that. Should read it again, it will help to take the bad taste from my mouth. The whole thing is a disaster, if people think Snyder didn't understand Watchmen- and he didn't all that much-, the retards that did this film show what real miscomprehension is like. Leave it to chinks to fuck it all up.
Parker Roberts
>Moore is mad because he's always mad
Camden Smith
Why was it even given a theatrical release?
That bugs me
Jose Price
that is such a reddit sentiment
Isaac Gray
I thought kevin conroy didn't sound right.
Caleb Bennett
I've only been partially been told of this. You mean the Barbera sexing Bruce thing wasn't the only thing that pissed people off?
Jaxon Rivera
why
Andrew Cooper

William Russell

Levi Campbell
I'm a huge fan of the band and I can't find any news or information about them anymore because I only get hits for your shitty capeshit. Fuck you.
Luke Collins
I didn't even know there's a band with this- terrible- name. Fucking music babbys thinking they matter.
Henry Diaz
Go be a tripfag, fag.
Blake Richardson
Brian Azzarello turned into a retard these last few years. Or maybe he just secretly hates DC and wants them to go bankrupt.
Chase Sanchez
>type in "band" after the name >problem solved
Fucking faggots don't even know how to use google
Brayden Butler
But it's an adaption of a comic that's been around for fucking DECADES, why are people acting so surprised?
John Foster
Because the part everyone hates is a brand new story not adapted from a comic.
Isaac Jenkins
Why do people suck off the comic as some golden idol?
It's strange as fuck that Batman is laughing with the joker after he paralyzed Barbra and nearly shattered Gordon's mind.
Was the point that they're both insane?
Austin Moore
I'm not mad, just disappointed.
Charles Smith
what? why did they add shit?
Dylan Reyes
Getting mad at irrelevant shit then crying about it on the Internet their parents pay for is the only thing millenials are good at.
Camden Davis
They didn't have enough material for a full movie based only on Killing Joke, so they added a half hour Batgirl movie before it.
Jose Gutierrez
Flesh out Barbra in the story rather than just have her crippled because she's Gordon's daughter.
Of course it blew up by making her an unlikable bitch who attacks a stranger for arguing with his gf and fucks her teacher
Cooper Gomez
If you add a minus in front of a word it avoids it in the search query
-DC -Movie -Batman etc.
Isaac Sullivan
>Of course it blew up by making her an unlikable bitch who attacks a stranger for arguing with his gf and fucks her teacher What a fucking slut.
Jaxon Gray
Wasnt she raped?
Luis Walker
So your teacher and mentor chaises you that you aren't taking your job seriously and does not fully understand the danger in the role you took up, and the way to show said teacher wrong is to jump him, tackle him to the ground and fuck him?
Brody Baker
I wouldn't mind this approach myself :^)
Isaac Sanchez
>going to be a high school teacher by this January >No girl will ever do this to me
;_;
Ian Murphy
Batman was just jealous that someone else wanted her, so that would be a reasonable response.
Landon Turner
You would know
Christian Collins
Clearly not. Almost everything about the film was bad. Even Hamill and Conroy felt flat most of the time, and it was fairly clear the director didn't bother directing them much.
Juan Thomas
>All it takes is one bad film
See? That's the killing joke. All it takes is one film for you to go nuts and shitpost on a chinese cartoon forum about it. Movie is pure meta kino.
Josiah Cox
>director >cartoon
Nigga you retarded?
Benjamin Harris
What are you implying? Seems to be something very stupid, so don't reply if you're gonna dig a bigger hole for yourself
Jose Gomez
But we can all agree Batman kills him at the end
Daniel Cox
kek nice one
Thomas Turner
'NO'
Not in the book, not in the film. That's a meme theory
Jason Allen
It's nice to see our children are in the hands of professionals
Brandon Edwards
Cartoons have directors. Are you fucking retarded?
Nathaniel Robinson
Directors sit in chairs and tell the actors what to do. How the hell are they suppose to do that for a cartoon? Are they telling the animators what to draw??? cmon man, think
Andrew Edwards
ha ha oh wow
you deserve a gold star
Jordan Turner
Why did they change anything anyways, the source material was perfect just make a straight copy jesus christ.
Jason Smith
I choose to believe this is bait
Oliver Brown
Is she getting thiccer?
Gavin Reed
I have the original book. My dad found it on top of a trash can a long ass time ago. I wonder if it will be worth money since theyve rereleased it once or twice and made this new dvd.
Austin Morris
>the source material was perfect oh, behave!
Cameron Flores
probably because it is short as fuck, so they need to add more shit for 80-90 mins movie and warranty for a theater release like around 50 pages of comic, probably 30 mins max is good enough
Chase Cox
You don't need to be around 90 minutes to get a theater release, you can be however long you want, they just wanted to make it feel more like a ~*~feature~*~
Nolan Thomas
Which was a bad idea, turned terrible reality when they put a shitty disconnected Batgirl inane garbage to create the feature. This is Sony levels of incompetence and lack of good sense.
Carson Jackson
is this worth watching?
Jace Murphy
Of course
Andrew Davis
Not really, no. But if you've read TKJ, it's a hard itch to ignore
Hunter Gutierrez
Because its capeshit, a genre that caters to autists.
Nathaniel Rogers
>the source material was perfect Killing Joke was awful
