We recently saw what could happen if somebody tried to adapt the beloved comic strip with 100% fealty to source. Now, we get a fan-made look at what the Dark Knight Returns version could be.
Obviously, this movie cannot and will not happen, but if they simply took out the copyrighted elements, this is still a film I would see. I’d suggest to the makers of the trailer that they point their evident talents toward a feature (of any kind).
Luke Y. Thompson has been writing professionally about movies and pop-culture since 1999, and has also been an actor in some extremely cheap culty and horror movies you will probably never hear much about (he is nonetheless mostly proud of them, as he met his wife on one). As editor of The Robot's Voice since 2012, he can take the blame for the majority of the site's content, all of which he creates because he loves you very, very much. (Although he loves nachos more. Sorry.)
Prior to TRV, Luke wrote for publications that include the New Times LA, Los Angeles CityBeat, E! Online, OC Weekly, Geekweek, GeekChicDaily, The L.A. Times, The Village Voice, LA Weekly, and Nerdist
