If you don't like films betraying the source material, okay. I personally don't think you can criticize a movie on those grounds.

why?

Agree to disagree I guess. Whenever I watch a film I make sure to judge it solely on its own quality. For me, I like to give each film its fair chance. It's adherence to source material doesn't factor into my view of it.

So if I am watching a movie based on a book, it is invalid of me to criticize when it differs from the Book?

No I think you can view it how you want. That's why I'm not engaging in your discussion about Bruce retiring from Batman. My argument would go no where. I think it's alright to be annoyed when an adaptation makes changes, I just personally think it's wrong to judge a film's quality based on those changes.
