Revelation



Dark Knight and Watchmen have the same basic message in the end: It's better to lie to people so they'll be good than tell them the truth and let them make their own decisions.

Well... I guess Batman and Ozymandias have the same message; I'm pretty sure Watchmen is actually saying, "Look, people lie to you. Is that right?"

Heeeeeyyyyy, now that you point it out...
I think that's a life philosophy with Iron Man too.

But less people die with Batman. I think. Er.

No, because Iron Man ended up telling everyone who he was. And Tony Stark wanted everyone to know what was going on instead of hiding it. Of course, I havne't seen the movie in two years or so, so I may be misremembering it.
