There's no 2nd movie as such - DC comics have recently announced a 7 comics prequel series which is probably what you've seen. That's not to say there won't be a prequel movie of course, but t's only the comics which have been announced. Which, for the record, I think is heresy. Awful idea.

Ah, I disagree with this. I thought it captured the tone well, aside from the obligatory Snyder slo-mo scenes. Some parts I disliked , like the scene where Nite-Owl and Silk Spectre fight the criminals in the alley in the most ridiculous bone-crushing, cgi-blood spurting, gritty way but overall I thought Snyder did a fantastic job. I'm a
huge fan of the graphic novel and was worried the film would be awful but I thought it worked incredibly well. Didn't even mind the changing of the ending.
