The Batman (2022)

[The Q]

I guess we are lucky the Twilight people did not do this series. We would have Kristin Stewart as Vicky Vale and Taylor Lautner as penguin. Maybe not penguin, cant show the abs in the cold, maybe good old king tut?

Bane?

Killer croc?

I think Bane is one like the Joker that it will be hard to beat, but it would have worked. I think Croc just showed up in the really really tiny Afflack role of batman in suicide squad.

I guess I am showing my age with King tut from the TV series.

depends on how supernatural they want to go with the villains. I wouldn't mind seeing a Poison Ivy villain or even go the route of Clayface.

I also wouldn't mind more of the Batman/Robin saga...that's a good story with all the different Robins and Red Mask or whatever the fucking names are

it was actually Victor Buono, big time guest role for a tv program.

I was upset they did not let Gordon Levitt get a shot to continue the Bale series when he was given the keys to the kingdom and said his real name was Robin. That would still interest me if it happens after Pattisons deal runs out.

but Robin's name was never Robin.

• Robin I (Dick Grayson)
• Robin II (Jason Todd)
• Robin III (Tim Drake)
• Robin IV (Stephanie Brown)
• Robin V (Damian Wayne)

also I think Levitt is too old for the Robin role...

aren't they doing a Nightwing movie? (adult Dick Grayson)

DC's Nightwing Movie Script Is A Primal Revenge Story

Chris McKay's Nightwing movie is a revenge story.

and what do you think Bruce Wayne is?

some of them aren't pretending, they are just emotional.

not much is more emotional than being sad your parents are dead and pretending to be a bat.

Yeah but that is legit pain. Maybe we have a different opinion on what an emo is but I could see calling Bruce Wayne dark but not emo.

10 Twitter Reactions To Robert Pattinson's New Emo Batman Look

Robert Pattinson's new look for The Dark Knight in Matt Reeves' The Batman has sparked some interesting and hilarious reactions from fans on Twitter.

The one thing that fans of the franchise seem to forget is that Batman is emo and no other comic book character really compares.

He lost his parents at a young age, has a thing for dark clothing, and he prefers to be a loner in his craft, which is something only true Batman fans will understand. It is no wonder that the movie would take this direction and layer on the eye makeup as it reveals the depth of his emotions as he deals with his past trauma.

Just for clarity…

This is the same Batman as Affleck? But a prequel?

No, different Batman, in different universe.

This film was, early on, originally intended to be part of the DCEU, but after BvS and JL were not so well-received, WB decided to make this a reboot instead and move the film out of the DCEU. So like the Joker film, this is NOT a DCEU film and does NOT feature the same Batman character as Affleck's.

So fucking stupid.

Constant reboots is the exact reason I don’t read comics.

why complain? Affleck did not even get his own movie. He was too needy to handle his own character and only got co star roles. We should be elated to be rid of the Affbat, we lost too many years.

I heard something where they are going to start digging into the multiverse for DC as well, having Affleck and Keaton meet or something.

so we aren't rid of Batman Ben yet.

 

[calsnowskier]

At this point, I have zero intention of seeing this movie. DC has shit the bed too many times. They have no idea how to make a movie anymore.

Joker was good, but VERY over-rated.
