BvS What Stylized Colour Scheme do you Want/Expect for Gotham City?

[Guts]

Batman V Superman's Gotham locations.

I forgot this one.

Metropolis obviously should be the modern scyscraper city. It should not be all lights and happiness, but obviously Metropolis needs to be 'rebuilt' and i'd say it can be rebuilt more futuristic, and have the imhabitans be 'uplifted' 'motivated'.

Gotham is the dark world, the Nolan films imho embraced the feel perfectly.
Buildings with gargoyles, scarred, fogged. Less crime because of Batman having done his work good enough [ it doesn't need to be crime-free, just excessive-free], but never enough to keep it crime-free, which wears on mr. Wayne. Unfinished buildings.

Metropolis should be an uncomfortable place for Batman, and Batman should be mad at Supes for destroying or allowing half of Metropolis to be demolished in their brawl. Something with "Protecting your loved ones. how are you gonna save humanity if you destroy their world".

Batman's "home" is dark, gritty. Film noir-style, almost Sin City style. Superman should not feel so much at home there, and should judge Batman for leaving a city to decay instead of finishing his human obligation; not just to destroy crime, but to make it a better place.

It should imho therefor be like night & day; Metropolis is the day, Gotham is the Night.

Is this for real? I'd say you are going to say something I recommend you to do it with some base my friend.
When did Superman destroy half the city in the brawl? That's pretty nonsensical and talks bad about you, either as a sheep that misheard something and continues repeating it or simple not knowing **** about that specific topic.

First Metropolis was pretty big, not all the city was damaged (IMO it was only 1/4 of the city if you see the aerial fight between Zod and Supes) as you may have noticed if you saw the movie.. Then haven't you seen that the World Engine-Black Zero did the damage? and even if you said about the damage, Superman couldn't do anything because he was stopping the menace that was causing all that at the other side of the world. He's not omnipresent as some just want to see.

Notice what I'm going to say below is not directed to you at all... I really need to say this to complement that idea.

I keep questioning the guys who pretended that Superman, a novice that wasn't in a fight before, those guys who want him to deal and putting an uncontrollable Zod out of the city and let's be honest some just wanted him to do everything at once, (noticing that the part of the city that was damaged, the buildings near the incident were empty, and Zod can just be back and doing more damage by just knocking him or escaping from him, Supes needed all the attention to stop him before he could do more damage, from the speech he told Supes) and yeah I need to question besides the easy one, why asking FOR EVERYTHING to a guy in his first experience as a superhero dealing with a massive threat, have they ever been in a fight before? do they know what happens in the surroundings while they are fighting, everything happens so fast, you don't have time for thinking different options, more importantly when you don't have experience( he never need to learn from it, until now) and you're just trying to defend the human race with your balls and courage because that's the thing he's chosen and he proved since the beginning his first appearence on the movie, you have to be focused of what you opponent does or tries to do.. You lose focus, you lost the battle.. Even more if you are not experienced and you haven't fought in your life with that kind of opponent... Geez.
Also I really wonder if they have ever read Supes comics... cause even in the animated series, casualties happened. But as the movie did showed, there were survivors... that's the whole point of it... courage in disasters, it has happened before even in real life
Yeah maybe the same guys that think Superman is a 24 hours service-guy that knows everything

Let's be honest here... In every story, even at war, there are casualties, let's not pretend it's a fairytell that everything is perfect, nothing bad happens, if some people are ok with it, it's ok, but don't pretend that it's the way as it should be when that type of threat attacks nor when two titans collide. They just need to see how the world goes around to know a little something.. it's not as some media sell it to us. Really.. That's what I liked about this movie, they put a realistic scenario with this comic book character and the consequences that would happen if those aliens were really around us with that type of power and intentions. It's the point of this grounded universe. I respect other intentions of this but those aren't the ones that all needs to like nor the only ones used.

And no, Gotham wasn't Gotham in the last two films of Nolan, No matter how much I loved the TDK trilogy.. IMO of course.

I really do hope BVS/the DCCU's Gotham is something special. Burton's was so visually stunning and I loved what they were going for in Begins, but they basically dropped it in the sequels and went "Eh, let's just make Gotham look just like Chicago/whatever city we happen to be shooting in for TDKR."

 

[TheFlamingCoco]

Red, like BTAS would be cool.

 

[antoineflemming]

I hated the Burton Gotham. Set was too small. Made the city look like an old English city. I guess that was the point, but it was just too small. Gotham should be the size of New York. Color scheme? Normal color, just shot at night.

it wasn't too bad in Batman '89

but in Batman Returns though it did feel too small. it was really confined that it almost felt like more of a modest New England town rather than a large sprawling city

 

[Sawyer]

Don't care. Still loved it.

 

[Lencho01]

I'm not expecting anything special with the city's look.

 

[super85]

I loved the way Gotham looked in the TDK trilogy, will be hard to top that, but Snyder is a talented visualist so I'm sure it will look good.

I do not want it to look like the Burton films at all, and judging by the trailer, it wont.

I liked it in Begins. The sepia like tone to it really did a lot for me.

Gotham looked awesome in Begins, especially the Narrows

in TDK it looked just like Chicago to me

Not even 1/8 of the city. Metropolis is HUGE.

 

[BatmanVSuperman]

Gotham should clearly be pink with a hint of orange.

 

[Guts]

We need Kane to post some gifs of Gotham from the BvS teaser.

I loved the look more from BB tbh than the rest of the trilogy, but wasn't Nolan inferring by those changes that the city evolved with Batman and that's why it looked more clean or so? Not sure, just asking...

Tell that to the "know it all"

PS: I agree

 

[KillerWolf]

Are you out of your mind?

Magenta and vermilion would obviously work better.

Good call.

Good call.

My guess is black. And sometimes very very dark gray.

I'm sure that's had to have been said on an earlier page. But I don't care.

I stand corrected.

The "Returns was too small" complaint is overblown, IMO.

Here's just a few of the shots where you can feel the sense of scale:

Agreed. 90% of the Gotham scenes happen in Gotham Plaza. The city was reduced to a small location which made it feel too small to be a city.

 

[HerosOnFilm]

For me Gotham would be Chicago whereas Metropolis is NY. I think Chicago is perfect for Gotham.

I think they only filmed one Gotham scene in Chicago.

 

[ThePhantasm]

Some key scenes take place there, but if you tally up all the locations featured in the film there are many, many locations. Its not true that 90% of the film takes place there, that's ridiculous.

BR Gotham looked badass, you philistines.
