10 Things That Would Stop Batman Vs Superman From Sucking

8. Adapt It Straight From A Great Source

Zack Snyder has already suggested that this movie will be heavily influenced by the brilliant The Dark Knight Returns story arc and that's definitely the kind of thing he should be doing. While we don't want a scene-for-scene rip of the comic book story (we don't want complete predictability after all), it would be awesome if we had some things to reference directly and when a story is as strong as The Dark Knight returns (or indeed countless other comic book arcs featuring Batman and Superman), the movie can't really fail. The Dark Knight Returns saw Batman turn Gotham in to the safest city in the United States of America. This led to the government feeling embarrassed, so they recruited Superman as their lackey and demanded that he remove Batman from the city. Of course, Batman doesn't just sit back and allow that to happen and an epic confrontation occurs. We won't spoil it any more than that for you, however.
