Inceltown posted:I want to see a Batman where Bruce realises that the huge wealth inequality is the driving force behind Gothams crime problem and he fights for a more just tax system that is used to improve the lives of the impoverished. Creating a social safety net that means no one needs to resort to violence to stay alive. This but he's still fighting politicians and CEOs with the same "nonlethal" tactics he uses against street ruffians.

Samuringa posted:It's always important to "It's actually sexual assault" every time this plot point is brought up because that's what matters and not that comic books treat and always have treated women like poo poo for their entire existence. It's actually ambiguous what joker does to her. The only objectively inaccurate part was saying he made Gordon watch. It's a mind bogglingly dumb quibble.

mind the walrus posted:Yes because it's also The Fountainhead mashed with The Death of Superman, and a teaser for 6 subsequent movies (only 3 of which got made). The book isn't a good candidate for adaptation either. It's very tongue-in-cheek and doesn't really amount to much thematically other than "man if these character got old they'd be hosed up." If we're going for vacuous "just for cool" stuff, I'd rather see some fun monster nonsense with Killer Croc and Man-Bat and Clayface than "Batman cracks a dude in a mudpit:" Josh Androsky used to be in the DSA steering committee

They've already had stories talking about how as Bruce Wayne he puts tons of money into improving the city and giving to charity. It's just that he also lives in a world where maniacs with unlimited money and/or superpowers keep trying to destroy the entire city every month or two, and he has to prioritize.

Creating a social safety net that means no one needs to resort to violence to stay alive. I mean quite a few versions of Batman actively do this. As Bruce Wayne he battles poverty and recognizes that he has advantages and Gotham won't be safe until the people are no longer impoverished and oppressed while as Batman he punches the giant guy made of clay. It's just that unfortunately 'batman beats up a bunch of criminals' is a convenient shorthand for writers to show a scene so you have Billionaire Man crippling people.

Yeah, Batman is kinda played out. There's nothing particularly interesting about him anymore. I guess you could say that about superheroes in general, but I'm still looking forward to WandaVision.

Pick posted:True, but sometimes you REALLY need to just trust that it's worth your time. This video is my go-to example, you can't give it away beforehand. I don't get it. I don't even know what there is to give away in this video.
