Freeze will get justice ine day, after sleeping on it, if they are going the detective route, it makes starting with something a detective is most likely to investigate. Catburgler, serial killer that leaves taunting clues...this will be a trilogy, plenty of time. Edited August 23, 2020 by Renegade7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Apparently, The Batman has shot less than 30% of the film at this point. So I think it’s difficult to judge exactly what will be in/out of the final cut when the teaser had so little to work with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max21 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I’m a bit confused here, so Batfleck is coming back for another film but they’re also releasing this at the same time? I don’t really get how that DOESNT confuse people. The trailer is awesome but please pick one Batman and keep him for a while please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its for a cameo in Flash that involves time travel or other dimensions? Reading Michael Keaton is going to be old Batman. Now they just need Bale.

Batman's detective skills should be like a super power. Kinda like Captain America's leadership/organization skills are a super power in the comics. These are things harder to show in films rather then comics/radio/tv which are a series. What id be excited for is a standalone Batman story. Not an origin story. Any. There are hundreds to chose from. What I really want is full Knightfall storyline. (Animated DC oneday maybe?) Dark Knight Rises was ok compared to the previous 2 Bale films. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to the recent Joker movie being separated from everything else that had come before. I kinda like it too because it gives you the chance to see various interpretations and stories with different tones, themes, and ideas. kinda like just getting a collection or various comics and graphic novels by different authors/artists and diving in 5 hours ago, Mooka said: What I really want is full Knightfall storyline.

The loose Knightfall stuff was pretty much the only redeeming aspect of it imo. would be nice to see it a little later down the road but they need to let that Bane breathe (ba dum cha) a little before exploring that story again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalhead Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 The Batman trailer looked interesting but I hope they have a way to distinguish the villain. Right now he looks and acts like a direct mash-up of Bane and the Joker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) I personally think they screwed up the Superhero Genre when they started adding more than one hero/villain per movie. It just waters it down. I want to spend time with each character. Unfortunately, the result is often a convoluted mess.

I didn’t get vibes from either one. the villains in this are Riddler, penguin and Catwoman tho it’s unclear how big of a role they will have. Based on the trailer, I think Riddler will be the main focus on the others will exist for world building as we look toward a trilogy and future confrontations. I would love that as we have yet to see a superhero movie where the villain is spread out across multiple movies (that I can recall) aside from Thanos in Infinity War and Endgame and, shocker, it worked incredibly well. we were robbed of TDK sequel with Joker so I hope we can get that with this new Batman trilogy. 3 hours ago, Mr. Sinister said: ****in' Batman&Robin started with Penguin and Catwoman. tho lol then Riddler/2Face then Freeze/Ivy/Bane imo Nolan trilogy used its villains the best because it didn’t just throw them all at Batman in a Comically stupid way. Batman fights Falcone to establish himself, then deals without a grounded Scarecrow, then Rhas. All 3 exist throughout the movie but there is a gradual buildup to them and their interpretations of these characters aren’t cartoon villains so it doesn’t defy belief that you have 3 villains in one movie. same thing with TDK, Maroni is a villain but is easily thwarted setting up the Joker’s main focus which sets up Dent at the very end as the villain for 15 minutes. And it was amazing in their usage rate. You got exactly what you needed out of them to tell the story perfectly Edited August 24, 2020 by Momma There Goes That Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression Catwoman is an ally, rather than a villain, in this. Kinda similar to the Dark Knight Rises relationship. They don't know what to think of each other, she's out for herself at first, then they decide they're more aligned than not and join forces.
