Zack Snyder: audiences are exhausted of superhero movies so a perfect time to make a movie version of Dark Knight Returns – Games Radar
"The reason why it's The Dark Knight Returns , if anyone would ever let me do it outside of the DC Universe since it's a novel that just happens to have superheroes in it, is if I could do Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns , those two books next to each other, to me, represent the complete cycle of the superhero comic book medium," Snyder told Variety. "You can do no more than those two books. Watchmen came at the beginning of the superhero movie phase, so it would be super fitting to have The Dark Knight Returns come now, at what I would say is possibly – I don't want to call it the twilight, but we're down the road of the superhero movie genre, and I think audiences would understand the why of it."
The blockbuster success of Spider-Man Brand New Billion would seem to counter Snyder's argument. Also, a real problem with The Dark Knight Returns is that it has been looted from for so many other Batman movies that only part of the tale would seem new to any audience moderately familiar with the Batz movies from Michael Keaton to now.
