Less grimdark would be great but more importantly they really need to do one where the setting is already established and it's like the 500th time he's faced off against the Joker instead of constantly redoing the origin of everybody.

Origin stories are the only fiction a superhero comic book / comic book movie can do well because they're the only ones that have a beginning, middle, and end, with a character that changes. (ie starts normal, becomes superhero) Everything else is the endless middle.

Another fresh take is that Superhero movies have always sucked dick and no one who wanted to watch it would honestly give a flying gently caress one way or the other if it was or wasn't in any way sensical. Who the gently caress went to a Batman movie (any of them) thinking "Golly I wonder who this Bat'ed Man fellow is? What's HE all about? I hope they explain it for a few hours."

"I enjoyed the docu-drama about young Mr. Wayne's struggle with prep school, but the Mrs. certainly enjoyed the flash backs and drawn out vignettes about the stomach issues he had repeatedly on the bus as a youth. I hope that can be revisted by the franchise several times to re-establish just WHO this Bruce Wayne chap actually IS. Goodness!"

I am a loving Idiot who watched batman vs superman in theater when it came out and the opening scene is batman's parents getting killed and then a hard cut to him running away during their funeral and falling in a hole in the woods and then rising up in a batnado. But there was jackshit about superman for comparison

I really like the first page of Allstar Superman. It gets the whole origin out of the way in the quickest way possible. Just do this for the inevitable movie reboot.

People are really up in arms about Pattinson getting the role, but, really, he's a perfect Batman. He has a really heroic chin, and that's pretty much all there is to it. Batman's physique is hidden by rubber muscles and Batman's character is so shallow and generic that absolutely anyone can pull it off. And let's not pretend that his voice matters after the last few versions. Blurry Gray Thing fucked around with this message at 02:53 on Aug 26, 2020 |

Universe Master posted:You just get a French Batman in a fetish suit when that happens. Azrael is a funny case since all the superheroes were getting dark and edgy 90s attitude replacements at the time and they deliberately made Azrael so the fans would get everything they wanted and hate it. That said though, I think there's some fun ground to play around with a religious fanatic taking up the Batman mantle and growing more unhinged as everyone around realises that it's not the Batman they know anymore.

You think Gotham has some sort of special claims procedure for Batman-related collateral damage or is insurance just a very risky business endeavor? Assuming no special procedure and that crime is positively correlated to poverty, we find that Batman’s effect on insurability, and resulting decreases in property values, are the cause of all of Gotham’s problems.

Assuming no special procedure and that crime is positively correlated to poverty, we find that Batman’s effect on insurability, and resulting decreases in property values, are the cause of all of Gotham’s problems. It's an open secret that the financial arm of Wayne Enterprises heavily invests against sections of the reinsurance market via credit default swaps, meaning that Bruce Wayne only gets richer the more Batman ruins the city.

Collateralized vigilantism. In the event that there is too much simultaneous crime for Batman to fight it all at once, those with premium shares get to light the Bat Signal first. Bane goes on a crime spree across Gotham hoping to create so much havok that Batman can no longer fulfill even his AAA tranche crimefighting obligations, and has to default.

Each Gotham community gets a Bat Signal that they pay monthly fees for installation, electricity and maintenance. You can't afford this month's fees? Sorry you'll have to create your own masked vigilante to protect you.

Going bonnet-to-trunk... Concussive white phosphorus missile launchers. Crooks get concussed but not seriously harmed. Next is a dum-dum rubber bullet or perhaps nerf prototype GAU-something. Enough to wind, bruise or potentially break a few bones but unlikely to penetrate the skin. quote:Finally, there's the cannon. I wasn't able to find an easy real-world analogue for it. I think that’s a depleted uranium aluminium alloy or plastic ball bearing rail gun/cannon. Batman’s spine has been broken once before in featherweight vs super-heavyweight match-ups wrangling steroid beasts, so this is a smart move as the former weapons would be ineffective. It’s all totally non-lethal in the right hands. Deep Thought fucked around with this message at 21:22 on Aug 27, 2020 |

Batman just uses the common superhero genre standard for whether someone is dead or not: If I am not absolutely 100% sure they're dead, then they're still alive. If I am absolutely 100% sure they're dead then they're still probably alive, or at least about to be resurrected by Scarlet Witch or something.
