Ignoring the jerk to talk shit:
Why do people still like/hire this guy? I’ve never seen something with him I’ve really enjoyed, besides Batman Begins. He’s had a long career since 2005, and been credited on a lot of dogshit.
You’d think his career would’ve ended after he wrote Batman V Superman, but here we are? They gave him a show?
Didn't like The Dark Knight?
I suspect there may have been changes made by the studio for BvS. There was a whole subplot with congress that makes no sense unless there's a version of the story where congress orders Superman to go after Batman. Something similar to the Dark Knight returns but with a congress controlled by Lex Luthor influencing Supes instead of the President.
As it was, we have a plotline about congress that goes nowhere. I smell a studio exec saying "this plotline is boring, make it about his mother, hey look both Superman and Batman's mothers are named Martha, we should use that!"
Or maybe Goyer just sucks, who knows? Well I guess the people that worked on these movies and know who's responsible for the boneheaded decisions.
He didn’t write the script for The Dark Knight (and it shows) of course I love it lol
He’s only credited with coming up with the story, which is why I said Batman Begins, which he did write according to Wiki
