Riddler is put into Arkham Asylum. Guard: Heh, you're gonna love your new cellmate, Nigma! He's a real laugh! Riddler looks at a man, concealed in shadow, playing solitaire on the floor. Mystery Man: They call you Riddler... have I got a riddle for you! Man turns over the next card in the deck, revealing a joker. The man comes into the light, revealing a CGI Heath Ledger. Joker: Why. So. Serious? Hahahahaha! Edit: Then it turns out that there are other versions of the movie where the Joker is revealed to be Jared Leto or Joaquin Phoenix, and you don't know which version of the movie you're going to see. It's all to set up Batman & The Three Jokers, coming out 2025. Jamesman fucked around with this message at 06:28 on Feb 15, 2022 |

I'd pay so much money to see people's reactions if at the end they reveal the Joker, but it's the Cesar Romero Joker and he's just alliterating like crazy while holding a cartoon bomb.

The United States posted:Surprise Reveal! It would rule if it was just a straight edgy dark Batman for 85% of the movie, and in the last few scenes he's ranting about how he's trying to stop super criminals with complex plots, and then the movie shifts perspective and we see that he's been the criminal the whole time, and the plots are all imaginary. Not that he's become as bad as the criminals, just that it's all been him.

There was a rumor going around that test audiences were shown a version of the film with Joker in it and one without. I don’t know if this was ever confirmed, but there have been a lot of reports that Barry Keoghan is playing Joker.

Keoghan plays Druig in the Eternals as a very creepy godlike borderline villain at points I could definitely see him as the Joker

Even suggestion of the Joker makes my interest in The Batman get even lower than it already was. gently caress the Joker, gently caress all his fans that just want every bit of Batman content to just be Joker delivery systems.

Pictures of some toys for Love and Thunder have appeared showing the designs of the uh...Thors. So assuming they're accurate I guess we have a first look at the MCU Jane Foster Thor and what dude Thor is going to look like in this. I'll put them in spoiler tags, I guess?    https://gizmodo.com/thor-love-and-thunder-jane-foster-thor-toy-first-look-1848553781

I swear, I'm a grown adult, and I still cannot get my head around how it was supposed to work in the original Thor comics. So he's a human doctor, with his own life and personality, and then he strikes his cane and he becomes Thor, an entirely separate person with his own personality. But they are still two separate people, yet also not because only one can exist at a time, and... I'm so lost. loving funny book from the 1960s making me lose any self-belief that I'm smart.

Fairly sure a recent Thor arc went into that, the doctor was not happy.

IIRC in the first couple issues it was kind of like Donald Blake just had "the power of Thor" but still had his own mind (and the whole "walking stick is secretly Thor's hammer" was standard "disability is secretly a superpower" stuff, like with Iron Man's heart or Daredevil's super-senses). But pretty quickly Jack wanted to bring in all the other Norse mythology with Odin and Loki and everything, which mean's he's "really Thor", so the identity just stuff got really muddled. It took until Simonson in the 80s to say that Blake was never a real person and have it just be Thor all the time.

I always liked the idea that Thor had to learn humility and maturity by living a life as a human. It made him distinct from the other distant gods of this world; they never had the human experiences he had, so it makes sense that they're not hopping around being superheroes in the same way Thor is (except for Herc, who was originally human). I really dislike the modern idea that Donald Blake was somehow not Thor after all and that, worse, Donald Blake even being created at all was somehow some kind of mistake. It wasn't! Thor wouldn't be who he is today if he hadn't been Donald.

Also borne out of the tendency to give powerful heroes a big capital W weakness. Iron Man's energy levels were always so precarious in those early days and he would need to plug in so often, like when your phone battery stops holding a charge. Thor needed Mjolnir in his hands at all times because if he didn't have hold of it for 60 seconds he'd convert back to Blake. It was a huge weakness and it allowed for classic secret identity hijinks.

On a scale of 1-10, how smug and contrarian is it to think that 1. Pattinson Batman looks like a thoroughly joyless slog, and 2. Lego is the best Batman movie?

I like Lego Batman pretty good but annoying improv comedy Robin makes me give the edge to Mask of the Phantasm and Return of the Joker I think Pat-Bat at least looks more colorful than Nolan's stuff (and Reeves seems to have a grasp of actual human emotion by comparison) so while I understand being skeptical based on the marketing, my projection is... It won't be that bad. Probably high-mid tier as far as Batman movies go.

Reeves's Apes films are incredible which garners him truckloads of good faith in my book.

You could maybe be smug saying Mask of the Phantasm is the best Batman movie. (Only because it's true.)
