kvz5, congrats on your moderator promotion

Scherezada, James Bond is a long running franchise going on decades. Most people have the good sense to know that one actor cannot play that role indefinitely. But within a movie series like a trilogy that only spans a handful of years, recasting is the last thing anyone wants done on a popular character who was played so well by an actor.

In the age of reboots and the internet I don't think there's going to be many who don't realize Leto and Affleck have nothing to do with Nolan's movies.

Thank you, sir!

Morning, The Joker.

I totally get you. James Bond was a very long series. Still, sometimes recast worked and some others didn't. Plus, in my head, where everything's safe and just the things I want happen, I thought people would have the good sense to know that if the actor dies, recast could be a necessary solution that, the same as any other forced recast, could work or not. And yes, I hope everyone gets it's a reboot.

Cheers.

Damn, gotta learn how to behave oneself when conversing with posters. Who knows who could transform into a mod with a grudge and make SHH life hell.

His mask looks pretty legit. Not sure about those rapping skills, though.

kvz5 is now a moderator? That's great news. Very deserving and well done.

OK, I would like to bring up something in terms of John Blake figuring out Bruce Wayne was Batman. People who defend or criticize the scene seem to think that John Blake suddenly went from "Bruce angry, therefore Batman." Below is a re-post of a comment I made on another forum that clarifies that when the orphans met Bruce, Blake and the orphans thought Bruce Wayne was Batman before they met him.

Blake said, "we were so excited. Bruce Wayne, billionaire orphan? I mean we use to make up stories about you man. Legends. But to the other kids, it was all that was, just stories. But, right when I saw you I knew who you really were. I have seen the same look on your face before."

Basically, Blake and the orphans thought Bruce Wayne was awesome for being a billionaire orphan so they made up stories about him being Batman. I.E. "Bruce Wayne is Batman cause he is rich, Bruce Wayne was Batman cause he is out to avenge his parents."

But, since the kids thought Bruce's "happy" personal didn't fit Batman, they didn't take it too seriously, thus it it was only just stories. Only Blake took the stories seriously, since he saw Bruce's anger.

So what do you guys think? I am not sure if any of you guys noticed this before. Whether or not people like how that is how Blake figured out his identity, that is how it was.

You know, I agree with you. I have no problems with Blake deducing Bruce Wayne is Batman. But I feel in my bones that a certain joke about this is coming.

kvz5 is a mod?!?!? That's PERFECT!

Just slip the mods $10 under the table, and they'll leave you alone. Shauner always wanted to know, but that's how I've never been banned. I already gave $30 to kvz5, so I'm good with her for a few years.

LOL, great post altogether. Good form, Trav.

Oh, and congrats kvz5! You're a mod now...you're not allowed to believe in coincidence anymore.

 

[kvz5]

Thanks guys!

Trav - the $30 only buys you a year BUT if you admit that you looooove TDKR and that John Blake is your boo then you're set for life.

He doesn't have to admit it. We can all feel it in our bones.

 

[JackWhite]

Yep, congrats on the mod-job, kvz5.

Remember to look out for the small folks here, now that you are at the top.

there are many of us who hate this movie, but Travesty makes it look like an art form.

Well done, buddy.

 

[BatLobster]

Yeah, he actually creates his own memes rather than only relying on the same Reddit meme for all his material.

That said, last night me and a couple of friends ate a few...special cookies *ahem*, and started going through Bane/CIA videos on Youtube......oh man, we were dying.
