Why do so many people want to see on film a "comic book" adaptation of Batman, based more or less on certain stories that they have previously seen, rather than have something new and different, that still manages to stay "true" to the character(s)?
I mean, shouldn't the point of a Batman movie be to further develop the character(s) and the story in various ways, thus allowing for different interpretations of this mythos, like all the different comic books do? You have different writers that come up with different ideas and concepts to, in a sense, keep the character(s) "up to date" with the rest of the world and present it in their own ways.
It might be because I'm not as much of a "fan" as most people on these boards are, but I like to believe you can change characters visually and make them take slightly different "paths" in the story and still end up with the same great characters that we know and love... or hate. I honestly like the idea of recreating Batman on some aspects and see more of a "personal" style emerge... of course, since the primary goal of movies is to make money, that will never happen.
... am I still making sense?![]()
You stay out of my head!
