The Batman General News & Discussion Thread - Part 2

[AndrewGilkison]

Harvey Dent is clearly on his way

 

[Sawyer]

Rogues gallery is adding up.

Carmine Falcone
Catwoman
Joker
Penguin
Riddler
Sofia Falcone
Salvatore Maroni

Could use a Mad Hatter and a Hugo Strange IMHO.

 

[AndrewGilkison]

Reeves is clearly setting up his Long Halloween and Dark Victory type Batman trilogy. "Mobsters, creepy villains in costume, Batman being a detective" The formula is clear.

Gonna watch it tonight in a couple of hours, to commemorate the one year anniversary of my own first viewing.

I'm ready to cry

I did in fact cry.

God, the fact this movie even exists in the way it does still blows my ****ing mind.

Matt Reeves really looked at a superhero who's about as iconic as the goddamn McDonalds M and decided "yeah I wanna make a 150 million dollar 3 hour long detective thriller about how a man learns to overcome his demons through striving to be better and hoping for a better tomorrow"

like

what the ****

HOW WAS THAT ALLOWED TO BE MADE IN THIS CURRENT ERA OF TRYING TO COPY THE MCU WITH MEDIOCRE CAPE**** MADE FOR PROFIT

My brain can't comprehend it. But that doesn't matter. Because it does exist. And I will forever be grateful for that, as someone who gravitated to Batman so hard because he gave me that exact same realization of how to overcome my personal demons. The Batman is an honest to god love letter to the character of Batman in the same way that SM1 and SM2 are a love letter to Spider-Man. I will forever be grateful to Matt Reeves for creating that. Whatever he does next, I'm there and I'm all in.

Happy one year anniversary of The Batman releasing in theaters!

It’s in my top favorite films list for a bunch of reasons that I could spend countless amounts of forum posts detailing, but I’ll keep it simple: it’s the Batman/superhero movie I’ve always wanted.

Probably gonna give it a rewatch later (#4, I think).

I know it’s just Twitter, but look at those likes and view count (10M). The Batman Part II is going to be huge.

 

[Detective Conan]

Looks like we’re getting a new cinematic version of Two-Face(or shall I say, Harvey Dent).

 

[Lautox]

Austin Butler
Paul Mescal
Miles Teller
Chris Abbott

This are my picks, I think Butler is the most likely to get it since he has no upcoming projects other than Dune and a few more

 

[Boom]

John Boyega.

 

[Sawyer]

Henry Golding

 

[Kane52630]

If the Fantastic Four thing doesn't go through, Penn Badgley

Or Michiel Huisman

 

[Sawyer]

I could go for Badgley too.

In general though, and maybe it’s just the underachiever in me speaking, but I’m not really seeing 90s babies like Butler and Boyega as the best candidates for a character who’s a District Attorney. Just feel way too young.

 

[antsman41]

Mia Goth or bust…

But, Christopher Abbot would be rad.

 

[WayneMB]

Miles Teller has recently skyrocketed on my Harvey list. it's between him, Chris Abbott and Benny Safdie for me

 

[Kane52630]

Mia Goth as a f***ed up Silver St. Cloud

 

[Boom]

Jonathan Majors IDGAF.

 

[Kane52630]

Samantha Robinson for Sarah Essen

 

[Sawyer]

If Essen is in the mix, I’d go with Betty Gilpin. She’s got a hardened energy about her.

 

[emielaen]

Kaluuya
Patel

 

[Lautox]

Mia Goth as a f***ed up Silver St. Cloud

silver st cloud isn't supposed to be ****ed up, goth is straight up quinn or ivy material but I don't think we'll see them in this trilogy

 

[Lautox]

Kaluuya
Patel

Dev fits more the role

 

[Lautox]

This will probably be the route they go with Harv

 

[Sawyer]

I kind of hope the make-up team doesn’t go too buckwild in terms of making Two-Face look like a real acid victim, because… those photos can be rough.
