You’re not ready to jam Shauner?
happy Easter batfans!

Abrams and Reeves are a pair with potential if you want a World’s Finest but let’s leave the Trinity and Justice League stuff out of it.
So agree with this. I never understood the notion of starting a brand new comicbook cinematic universe, and having one of the flagship characters portrayed in the twilight of his career. Seemed so remiss to just fast forward past all the great moments from Batman’s illustrious career just to have him engage in a senseless slugfest with Superman. That’s why I’m so excited with the Reeves verse. I want to see all the villains, hopefully a sidekick or two, and all the other relationships unfold before my eyes...I’m kinda lost with those pics. What’s the context and what am I looking at lol
Zack’s movies didn’t work for a large audience in 2013 or 2016. What makes ppl think his JL would have worked in 2017? It certainly wouldn’t work in theaters if it dropped today. I may like MOS, I may have grown to like chunks of BvS for what it is, and I may really enjoy ZSJL but if WB wanted to create a successful shared universe then Zack shouldn’t have been hired to do that job.
You know what they should have done? Waited. Let Zack make the Superman movie, then hand over the sequel to somebody else. Meanwhile you assign a woman to make 2 or 3 Wonder Woman movies (I like Gal but you can’t tell me she’s the ONLY middle eastern actress who can play Diana). Reeves then makes Batman movies with Pattinson. Now you have an excuse to bring a trinity together. All 3 in their mid to late 30’s for a team-up. That’s the way to go.

I can’t wait until we get new stuff and don’t have to talk about Snyder ever again
I’m not a huge Superman fan, but I’m a lifelong Batman fan. No Batman comics I’ve read over the past five decades ever showed Batman challenging opponents to death brawls, or murdering and torturing bad guys, so I have to respectfully disagree with you there.Directors can learn from they're mistakes. It's clear Snyder didn't exactly know what tone he wanted to maintain going forward. But he tried his best to make a engaging plot and interesting story with characters that okay, no aren't the best versions in history.
But are FAAAAAAAAAAR FROM the worst. And again, to Snyder's credit, any mistakes made or changes clearly weren't his vision. People liked Man of Steel, people liked Batman v Superman, but the MCU status quo has made any dialogue unsimilar almost belittled.
I see the same happening with WV when it first came out. People were like "this is super boring" but once the MCU antics kicked it was hype time.
What I'm trying to say and MORE TO THE POINT is Snyder's vision was different and you have to admit fantastic. Superman was Superman, Batman was Batman, all the characters were more or less themselves in a coherent universe.

I’m guilty as anyone because I found the behind the scenes drama of JL so interesting (so much drama over a bland, dull slog of a movie) but the day we have new The Batman footage to talk about instead will be so very sweet.I can’t wait until we get new stuff and don’t have to talk about Snyder ever again
So any one got an idea of when we'll get another trailer? Probably not this year. I feel like this is the furthest I've ever seen a trailer drop from a film save perhaps Black Widow.

Sad times. So people are so brainwashed by -verses, they had to explain it's set in a different astral plane?
Agreed!Seriously. How a movie featuring not one, not two, but THREE of the most iconic comicbook characters of all time DIDNT crack a billion at the box office is just criminal.
Red and black is such a beautiful color combo for Batman
The theatrical release of BVS is still a horrible movie, easily earning an F from me. Meanwhile, the ultimate edition comfortably earns 9.5/10 from me. I’d like to see the audience reaction to that film because it is completely different. Zack Snyder got screwed twice. Who knows how things would have turned out if the UE and ZSJL would have made it to theaters.Agreed!
