The Batman General News & Discussion Thread - Part 2

[The Batman]

It was usually Robin who solved all the riddles, iirc

I wouldn't say Robin solved all the riddles, and half the riddles he did solve, it seemed like Batman already knew the answer.

Either way, West is still smarter than any of his live action successors, and has been the only live action Batman that comes off as a genius detective.

While it’s not entirely certain what happened in their conflict, Batfleck has canonically defeated The Riddler and kept his shirt in the bat cave. This was a version of Riddler that was supposed to be smart enough to solve the anti-life equation.

^^ What is it with DC live-action always wanting to make their supervillains look like bums.

Heath's Joker was a trendsetter.

 

[Mindreaper21]

I still want to know who Zack had in mind for his Riddler.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Jessie Eisenberg maybe

i know i posted it, but i don't like it either.
i like azzerello's other stories, but i wasn't a big fan of his joker story as well.
when elseworlds tales get too elseworlds.

Sharlto Copley?

 

[Mindreaper21]

Sharlto Copley?

That’s actually a pretty interesting choice.

 

[Kane52630]

I'm shocked we're aren't talking about this clip from the BTS footage more.

 

[WatchProtect]

Immediately thought the same

 

[Erik Lensherr]

Abby, is that you?

 

[WatchProtect]

Just out of curiosity what would you guys think if Reeves introduced Robin like Ellie from TLOU, Atreus or kid from The Road.

Batman is put in a position where he has to protect Dick from some threat Thats following them, like maybe Penguin sends some guys to kill Dick because he saw a huge murder or something.

Over the course of the film Bruce and Dick learn more and more about each other and grow into a father and son relationship, give Dick the obligatory "Sacrifices his young life, for the Hero!"
Bruce adopts and gives him some basic martial arts training to protect himself and in the third film we get full on Batman and Robin/Nightwing

 

[CondimentKing]

I can dig it

That’s almost EXACTLY what I’m thinking, except I think the threat Dick needs protection from will be The Court of Owls. They’ve been known to seek out and forcibly recruit circus performers.

you guys are basically creating a better version of the all star batman and robin plot here.
and i am all for it.

 

[Gothamsknight]

The way this Batman seems to be starting off with a sense of uncontrollable rage and that he's gonna have to learn to control it and make his peace with things really makes me believe dick grayson would be such a great story tool going forward. It just makes sense.

 

[Gold Samurai]

This might sound hokey but I keep picturing a future sequel/movie like this

Gordon is driving up to Wayne Manor. He lets Dick Grayson out of the car. Bruce welcomes him.

In a Star Wars type ending shot the camera is focused on the backs of Bruce and Dick as they watch Gordon leave and the sun slowly go down.

The audiences knows what lies ahead for their future......

Batman's Scene-Stealing Sunglasses Can Now Be Yours

For the Pattinstans in here.

 

[TheSmoothKnight]

Maybe his fans will calm down with the hate.

I don't always give a sh** about Collider's rankings of stuff but this one made me chuckle because of who George Clooney beat.
