The Batman General News & Discussion Thread - Part 2

[Gothamsknight]

I love me some synthwave! Such a great genre.

This reference is gold. Best BTAS moment ever (and that's a hard choice).

I have wanted a Refn inspired club banger John Wick esque fight scene in Iceberg Lounge since the movie was announced. You guys are very much talking my language with Perturbator and Drive. Lol. There's an amazing club scene in Refns latest show Too Old to Die Young, so glad Greig is getting wild with the lighting here. Was worried the whole movie would be grey given his past work and the first teaser. So happy with how the movie looks

That could be pulled straight out of Blade Runner too. Zoey Kravitz as a Replicant.

You know you got something special on your hands when you get excited over a pretty simple little action scene like a car hitting another car and yet I just can't stop watching that part of the trailer.

It is so incredibly refreshing IMO to actually look forward to a superhero/comic-book movie that actually looks like its going to rely more on personal stakes, grittiness and old-school practical effects.

It might be the smallest scale Batman movie we have ever seen and that only makes more amped to see it because its going to feel so different compared to what we have gotten before.

I went ahead and flipped it.

100%

Hope the scale of the sequel wont be bigger, more money doesnt make a movie better. Just keep this style for the sequels.

One thing i wasnt happy about with nolans batman trilogy is that the grittiness from BB was basically gone in the sequels. He had to keep the brown color tone and bring more rain sequences in those films, that would be cooler.

Great films still, but those sequels could be better.
Wouldnt have minded if BB would have been a standalone film, that could actually be great.

Drive's the absolute boobies, love that flick.

And yeah, something like the dorky doof-doof techno from the John Wick club scene would be pretty ace for the Iceberg lounge. Doesn't really seem like Oswald's scene though, haha. But yeah, he's just in it for the money & guns & power anyway.

Welcome to the party Battinson.

 

[BatsAndNights]

Semi off topic. We need Ron Perlman to be in a future batman movie. He also voiced the original Clayface in "Batman TAS"

I could genuinely see Ron as an old veteran version of Bullock to be honest. He could pull off the disgruntled old cop who doesn't trust Batman pretty well

Couldn't have said it better!

Ron for Poison Ivy.

I really, really can’t get over this moment. Just perfect.

 

[Revolverr]

Instead of believing Danny PK's "scoops", people should compile all the times he has lied.

I've always been a big advocate for cape over the shoulders and not on the back, but by GOD does that shot make it hard to argue

 

[TheSmoothKnight]

Just realized that Zoe did confirmed VA’s source on Selina Kyle during China The Batman panel.

Yeah, I love cape over shoulders too. In fact, it’s been a while they aren’t using it, now would be a great time to bring it back in style.

 

[Boom]

I'm still dying for someone to figure out how to do a fully-enveloping cape that can be flung back over the shoulders for action scenes. There has to be some way to do it.

This gives you a good enough approximation as to what it would look like in live action. Night and day difference for me.

To be fair they are the ones helping tear it down. Their actions often warrant criticism whether it is Elon Musk and his fraudulent "Green" BS (and his COVID takes were often ridiculous) or Bezos and his anti-union, crap ass work conditions whilst flying in space Lex Luther actions.

We as people, especially Americans, love to tear down our heroes almost as much as we love to then watch them redeem themselves.

Being a billionaire doesn't make you evil, that is lazy and stupid rhetoric that no one ever actually says except to get on TV. But lets not pretend the current crop of 1%ers are saints. Most of them I wouldn't trust to watch my cat if I went out of town. That is just who they are as people...the money is irrelevant.

I mean, you have Bill Gates, who is trying to spend every cent he owns on stuff like "curing deadly diseases worldwide". And yet somehow, he also ends up getting hate. . . *cough*

Scoopers having pateron accounts is the definition of grifting.
