I still don't understand why DC doubled down on the dark grim poo poo after Man of Steel bombed. Yeah it worked for Batman but look how much more popular the Marvel films are.

It would be a better clash if Batman came from gritty and superman came from a place where his hairdo has a sparkle every time he shows up smiling

do comic books constantly harp on how superheroes are effectively gods and need to use their powers for good

because if i have to endure another superhero movie where the heroes have a long, shallow discussion about "responsibility," i think i am going to scream.

also, how many times do i need to see peter parker get bitten by a spider

or see batman's parents die

or see jor-el send his son off in a rocket

i've never seen a comic book, but i think i, and the rest of the american public, have a pretty good sense of why these heroes exist.

I liked it as a cinematic experience, but I'm not even the most DC guy and I could tell poo poo was odd. I wouldn't blame people for disliking things and the movie. I do think Batfleck owns and so does super snarky Alfred. I am very excited for a potential solo Batman movie.

Also Michael Shannonwas very nice to come around and lay around mostly naked so much for the movie.

I also look forward to the hilarious sight people cosplaying as the Superman SS for years to come. Did have cool outfits though like a Boss.

Anyone remember those DC cinematic universe promotional clips where the writers and producers were all like "this is so revolutionary", and "youll be surprised at just how interconnected these movie are". Lol fuckers are trying to act like marvel didn'the beat them to the punch.

Why? I honestly can't see him doing anything new or different that would warrant another solo movie.


Maybe a Batman: Beyond movie with crazy art style where hes just a retired old rear end in a top hat and crazy futuretech. Id probably go see that.

Henry Rollins could even play Mad Stan.

Mostly just because I enjoyed Affleck and Irons. It could be a rather standard entry truthfully. Also Zach Snyder wouldn't direct it.

I'm pretty sure he punches a dehydrated henchman who was rehydrated with the wrong water so hard that he evaporates

... Huh.
Batman 89 he throws that guy off the bell tower and murders Joker with a gargoyle, Returns he pushes a clown into the sewer and then throws a bomb in after him, Forever he throws money at Two Face until he falls into a big fuckin pit, Begins he blows up the castle full of ninjas and only saves the most dangerous one, Dark Knight he dive-tackles Two-Face off a building...
I can't remember if he kills anybody in Rises or Batman & Robin tho

Comic book movies are made for aging nerds with disposable income. Unfortunately there are a ton of them, so Hollywood keeps making GBS threads out these movies.

It amazes me how often I see thirty something year old men with Transformers decals on their cars. What the gently caress. Grow up.

I think here's where a 2005 goon would assert, correctly, that the best Batman movie was Mask of the Phantasm.

A CineD goon might assert, also correctly, that the best Batman movie was A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)
