Not how they could have been done anyways.

I've seen the Dark Knight Returns animated so that's my source of knowledge for the plot but I don't see why they couldn't still do it. It would be at least three movies though - Batman vs gang, Batman vs Joker, Batman vs. Superman. I don't think they actually will but they could? I know nothing about the death of Superman other than it was Doomsday who killed him.

They could have made 3 movies that functioned beautifully instead of one that barely did. Isn't this your complaint as well?

I was more just focused on what could have been done to make this movie function rather than making others. But cramming too much into it is definitely part of the problem, as is tradition with bad superhero movies. Studio execs seem to think that the more STUFF they can fit into 2 hours the better the movie will be.
