I don't get how the DC animated movies are so good but WB can't do live action for shit. I thought a good story was a good story but I guess not.

Just personal opinion, but I think the Suits see animation as 'less important', so they don't worry about pandering to the lowest common denominator and assume the people that watch them are familiar with at least the general strokes of the characters. But for live action, they're trying to get in people who have (somehow) never seen a comic book film before, so they need to give us Batman's tragic origin story again and hand hold us the whole way through.
