Basebf555 posted:Most Batman adaptations grapple with that question, which indicates that it's a core part of the character and a big reason why the character is interesting. Right, but their sense of justice is usually aligned with ours. The movie ends with him triumphantly monologuing about leading people into the light, but he's the bad guy, what light is he leading us into? He's essentially installed himself as an acceptable tool of the state, even working his way into the inner circle of the progressives. But overall my major issue is the movie isn't trying to do that. It has a white liberal view of justice, no killing because he wants to feel good telling a brown person that it's bad, but he's already killed a bunch and he kills more after the fact, those Riddler goons are dead. Overall, I think I'm just in such a revisionist state, It's weird seeing a movie not trying to critique the problematic subject.

This came up in my YouTube recommends and you may like it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dymJ-ViBRhQ Summary for anyone not willing to click a 30 minute YouTube essay blind The guy assesses The Batman as being a liberal power fantasy where, while it critiques Batmans methods as bad, it then stops short of having any answers about what to do about the problem institutions beyond "restore faith in them" - then contrasts it with how the recent Immortal Hulk comic goes straight in hard on "Destroy capitalism unrepentantly" massive spider fucked around with this message at 23:07 on Apr 19, 2022 |

thrawn527 posted:They/them/their. Yeah, I forgot. Apparently, it was another assault charge on a different person at their house. quote:Miller was arrested early Tuesday morning after an incident at a private residence in Pāhoa. Patrol officers responded to a report of an assault that occurred at a get-together in the Leilani Estates subdivision in lower Puna. Officers determined that Miller became irate after being asked to leave and allegedly threw a chair, striking a 26-year-old female on the forehead, resulting in an approximate half-inch cut. The woman refused treatment for the injury. Edit: This is apparently the 10th time the police have been called on them in Hawaii IN THE LAST MONTH, but only their second arrest. quote:According to Hawaii Police Assistant Chief Kenneth Quiocho, Miller had been the source of 10 police calls in Hilo since March 7.

BiggerBoat posted:So what are we dealing with here with this guy? Meth? booze? Some combination of the three? From what we've been told it appears they have a massive but fragile ego. They keep responding with physical violence when asked to either leave somewhere (after other bad behavior) or when they feel slighted. (I.e: the karaoke thing.) Like I don't know if this is the right phrase to use for someone who is NB but it is some real fuckin' toxic masculinity stuff where they can't stand being challenged or confronted. It also seems to involve women a lot which may be a coincidence but sure seems to be a pattern.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Use your imagination. I can absolutely do that. But the reason I'm theoretically paying $10 - $20 and accepting a mild risk of catching COVID to see this thing in a theater is to watch the results of Matt Reeves and Peter Craig using their imaginations. And the question "Why is this respected police officer working with a vigilante of questionable sanity who has no official legal standing as any kind of law enforcement officer?" is a pretty understandable one that really should the some kind of decent answer within the movie. And apparently it didn't. Well just use your imagination. Jesus, everybody knows this story. Yep, they sure do. But you're still asking me to invest my time and money in this specific telling of that story that everybody knows. But if I'm having to use my imagination to paper over holes in your story, why the gently caress should I invest in your story when you can't be arsed to tell it completely? And it doesn't have to be some twenty minute in-depth flashback on the history of Gordan and Batman (and probably shouldn't in a movie whose run-time is on the ragged edge of three hours already) but some kind of "He's saved my life and the people of the city more than a few times and I learned that I can trust him." would have worked fine.

Man, Marvel spoon feeding everyone everything with no nuance for 10 years/cinemasins really did do more damage than just about anything huh?

Personally I felt I was cheated out of my 25 dollar luxury booth seat ticket for the Batman when it didn't explain in extreme detail how Batman trained to be a vigilante in this one. "How does a bored young rich man become a martial arts monster, tech wizard, and super sleuth?" is a really worthwhile question and they just leave it open ended!

Turns out my $10-$20 was theoretical because I never got around to catching The Batman in a theater. I'll eventually check it out on HBOmax. And Batman Begins covered both of the above points quite effectively.

Haven't finished watching The Batman yet but I love how Batman keeps awkwardly standing around in places around other people. It makes Batman weird in a way previously not featured in the films. It reminds me of Batman confronting the Joker at the police station in TDK, but here Batman doesn't just magically appear there, but we see him walk down the corridor while the police stare at him. This also invites comparison with BvS, where Superman walks to his hearing through the Capitol building. While Superman inspires awe in that scene, Batman looks like a lunatic cosplayer and the police obviously don't take him for anything else.

It's something kinda done on purpose in TDKR, Batman does the infamous disappearing without warning bit a lot because it adds to his mystery and makes him unpredictable and difficult to track, but also because he's well aware that he starts to look silly if you look at him too long. (Apparently it's actually a bit in Knightfall where people start to sense something is off about 'Batman' when he stops doing that, and actually politely waits for Gordon to finish) When he's stumbling around in broad daylight, you see a man waddling about in heavy padding and pointy ears trying to punch people.

If his status as a cop is so defined, why are people upset when he's depicted as a "killer" to the point of calling those who created ithe imagery, people with questionable values?

I felt a similar effect in his entrances, where in lieu of other Batmans' (Batmen's?) grandiose theatrics he simply slowly walks forward out of a dark space until someone deigns to attack him.
