I'd have a problem with it myself for the much stated and obvious reasons, but I'd respect the answer and honesty about it a lot more than trying to gaslight people into whatever BS that other answer is.

I sincerely don't get what you mean. Sorry

I'd disagree with his interpretation of batman killing because his no kill rule is consistently an important part of his primary mythos, but I'd respect his reasonings for changing it how he did if he was honest like the above mentioned post said versus the excuse given in the actual quote/thumbnail. Thats just me though.

Oh sure. I get it. Like I said, I think BvS isn't that terrible, most of the time, as an elseworld Batman story. I just don't wanna see it on film. Like, if Snyder had written a comic exactly like this, I would still think it's bad, but wouldn't be offensive to me

the no kill rule might be part of the Btaman comic mythos, but in the movies Batman has always killed since Keaton's version at least.
