I'm Reading Your Stuff: General News and Discussion Thread

Pointing out that an argument is obvious and tired does not, inherently, mean it's wrong. Those terms are not mutually exclusive.

OKA your argument is obvious and tired and can't hurt me. Like climate change!

I agree.

I never had an issues with how Robin was adapted in Batman Forever back in the day.

The awkward thing about Robin's adaptation , is that Chris O'Donnell is clearly looks a 20 something , while being adopted by a 30 something year old man .

It wasn't till a bit late that I realized Chris O'Donnell was only 3 years younger than Nicole Kidman ,

Oh yeah, the adoption part may feel a bit odd...

I wasn't aware that O'Donnell and Kidman were only three years apart in age!
Well... "movie magic" I guess?

My favorite version of this involves another Robin.

Brenton Thwaites as Keira Knightley's son in the 5th Pirates. He's 4 years younger then her.

Man, I can't wait for whatever Reeves and Tomlin has cooked up. Oh ****, I'm like 4 pages back on the Part II thread. I wonder what everyone's talking abo- ...oh.

 

[Johnny Frost]

He did, but a broader conspiracy doesn’t necessarily equal the Court.

The rabbit hole that Matt may be referring to could be multiple things. Though, I believe he means as Bruce Wayne. For example: diving into his mother’s history which could lead him to investigating Arkham as well as the Elliot’s.

I'm betting on something involving the founding families (Wayne, Arkhams and Elliots) and the foundations of Gotham, Reeves is subtly taking a lot of influence from Gates of Gotham.

HUH!! That doesn't sound right in the slightest.

I'm waiting for that one user to obsessively spam pictures of young boy actors that is in no way creepy.

85 and 89.

85 and 89.

That's crazy.

That's crazy.

Also just found out he has 5 kids!

Why blow up over a fake rumor of Robin?

Has Tomlin's cryptic photo been discussed?
This got me playing detective. It's probably nonsense, but here's my train of thought (or delusion...).

I assumed that the visible numbers, including those in transparency, are:
556 - 714 - 737 - 806 - 144 - 806 (again)

Unable to find any logical connection via the alphabet or dates, I was about to give up when I saw that Tomlin's previous tweet was an upside-down smiley face.
Taking this as an implicit invitation to reverse these figures, I then tried applying them to the monthly Batman comics, and here's what I got :

• BATMAN #655 : First issue of Batman & Son, ... yeah, talk about speculations.
• BATMAN #417 : First issue of Ten Night of the Beast, where Batman is more or less force to kill if I remember this well...
• BATMAN #608 : First issue of Hush... Yep.
• BATMAN #441 : Third issue of A Lonely Place of Dying, but if I'm not mistaken, the first one to have Tim Drake as Robin... Yep again.

I have nothing for the number 737, which is the only one that remains unchanged when turned upside down. So maybe there's indeed something else here...

Again, I'm pretty sure what I'm doing doesn't make any sense, but it's fun.



EDIT : Nevermind, apparently Tomlin is just watching The Matrix on a flight.
I was fooled by people who claimed it was about The Batman Part II. I didn't recognize the original shot as I've only seen the Wachowski's movie once and have forgotten pretty much everything about it...

I won't delete this major fail though.
This will be my warning about the dangers of overinterpretation and "intellectual" wandering.

I can send you on a vacation until shooting starts.

 

[Mindreaper21]

Lily is desperately waiting for the chance to put the boom on Boom like:

 

[The Lazarus Pit]

I’m not tired of Joker yet. We’ve had a lot of Joker content in recent years but the vast majority of it has been underwhelming or downright awful. Barry’s Joker falls under that category presently but I want to see more before I pass judgment.

But a movie set in Arkham, with Joker as the big bad, and based on the game and graphic novel sounds fantastic to me for the third movie.

 

[Boom]

[SwordOfMorning]

Torn on any Arkham stuff here because it was great in The Batman but extremely trashy and dumb in Penguin.

Send him to a restaurant in Paris.

I mean they did just finished the script right? Plus pre-production is well on it's way.
