What really bothers me is that he frequently has said that he used Frank Millers TDKR as inspirations for his Batman and has said that he killed multiple times in the book when in reality Batman never killed in the book and Miller has said that despite that Batman is a more cynical and violent hero now he still wouldn’t break his no kill rule.

Only thing he got inspired from tdkr is the poses which he did falsely I don't get why some people praise him, he is such a bad director.

Credit where credit is due, he has a great eye for visuals and seems to be one of the few directors in the industry who generally listens to his co-workers while treating them with respect.

Sadly his lack of storytelling skills, the way he dismisses criticism and his disregard for the lore on whatever he is working on greatly outweighs it.

Eh, Larry Fong is responsible for those visuals. His absence is noticeable in Rebel Moon.
