I guess riddles are also involved? Pattinson's bummed out, anemic, post-punk Batman seems like the best thing in the movie, which is maybe the first time for me that Batman's been the primary draw in a Batman movie. I mean, maybe there's other cool stuff there, but they've done a hell of job miscommunicating it if so.

Big Beef City posted:Who the hell is 'Pattinson'? The guy from Water for Elephants is playing Batman. I don't know who is playing the villain. Maybe someone from Chapo Trap House? I don't have amazing hopes for it because of how little they've said about the non-Batman stuff. Batman films, for me, have traditionally hinged on all the cool villains and events that Batman has to react to, and I feel like WB generally accepts this to be the main draw of the movies. This one I know nothing about, except that its Bruce Wayne probably knows a lot more about Factory Records than me. That's not a... great sign. Like, maybe they're holding the neat stuff close to vest in order to really surprise audiences, but I doubt it.

I saw The Batman. It was not very good. I did appreciate that it was the first movie that gave up on trying to hide the fact that a guy dressed like Batman would be jarringly goofy to actual humans, and so there are multiple scenes where he’s awkwardly stomping around a crime scene and someone idly goes “the gently caress’s with this guy” like you would if a furry showed up at your office and started fixing the printer.

Imagine being 16 and getting mall arrested by a guy in a Simba head in front of all your friends.

Mumpy Puffinz posted:was the movie any good? Right now, no, but I think in ten years, when I’m deep in my middle age and more nostalgic for the 90s, I will think it was a hidden gem that I didn’t give enough of a chance, because it sorta feels like a mediocre but stylish movie green lit to capitalize on the success of Se7en. IMO it’s considered good because of how much it pisses Ben Shapiro off.
