There's a Batman film coming out in 2022. Batman is my favoriete superhero, as well as one of my favoriete heroes in all of fiction, so I should be excited for the upcoming Batman film. However, I'm very concerned about this upcoming Batman film.

There are a lot of people who are looking vooruit, voorwaarts to the upcoming Batman film. If u are one of those people who are looking vooruit, voorwaarts to the film, please don't let me of my artikel stop u from being excited for the film. We all like different kinds of films. My artikel is about my personal feelings on the subject. A lot of my opinions will probably be unpopular, which is fine. I can only speak for myself. The film appears to be taking the Batman franchise in a direction that doesn't appeal to me.

Before I lijst my problems, I want to be fair and mention what I like about the film:

Using the pinguïn as one of the villains. Back in the classic days of Batman, pinguïn was Batman's seconde most iconic villain, only behind the Joker. However, pinguïn hasn't appeared in a live-action Batman film since 1992's Batman Returns. Bringing the pinguïn back seems like a step in the right direction. Also, Colin Ferrell is putting a lot of effort into his performance.

In the trailers, Jeffrey Wright quickly comes across as the right person to play Gordon. He has the authoritative presence that Gordon should have.

Using Carmine Falcone in the film. Carmine Falcone is a comics character that's inspired door Marlon Brando's character in The Godfather. He's a very powerful person in the mob and he's been suspected of being Catwoman's father, so he's an intriguing character. John Turturro is a great choice to play Falcone.

My problems with the film:

The way the film is using the Riddler. The Riddler is one of my favoriete villains of all time, because of Frank Gorshin's amazing performance. The Riddler is one of the most entertaining villains that there's ever been. However, this film's Riddler is inspired door the Zodiac Killer. Yes, they're basing the Riddler of a real-life criminal. This film's Riddler is clad in clothing that is green but is incredibly plain-looking, especially in comparison to the Riddler's classic suit. The Riddler is supposed to be a clever mastermind, but he's also supposed to be playful and funny. This film's Riddler is a sick murderer.

A big part of Batman's appeal is that he's a colorful, inspiring hero. Watching his adventures often give people a break from the drama in the real world. However, this film's Batman takes the character in a much darker direction. He's angsty, angry and is not shy when it comes to violence. I barely feel comfortable referring to this new version of Batman as Batman. Bill Finger's Batman is Batman. Adam West's Batman is Batman. This new Batman? I'm not so sure.

One of my favoriete things about the Batman films is how entertaining they were. The Batman films had great visuals, scene-stealing performances, inspiring heroes, fun villains and lots of memorable scenes. However, the Batman films went in a different direction in the 2000's. The films started becoming darker and meer realistic. The films might have become meer sophisticated, but a lot of what made the other Batman films enjoyable was gone. The upcoming Batman film seems to be even darker. The film is a murder mystery. Granted, a lot of Bill Finger's old stories were also murder mysteries, but those stories still had the hart-, hart and entertainment of classic Batman. The upcoming film seems too angsty and serious.

A lot of people think that Batman is a very serious, intense and dark character. Well, that is true in some versions, but that's not the Batman I love. The Batman I love is an eccentric, colorful crimefighter who has a strong amount of compassion in his heart. The new film's Batman seems to be going in a much harsher direction. In the trailers, Batman beats up criminals in very extreme ways. This time around, there are no word-bubbles on the screen whenever Batman hits a bad guy.

The thing I'm most concerned about is the film taking inspiration from Kurt Cobain. Matt Reeves, the director of the film, claims that he imagines his Bruce Wayne like Kurt Cobain. As someone who didn't know Kurt Cobain, I can't be the most informative on this subject, but I think what this film is doing raises some eyebrows. I do want to make it clear that doing tributes to beroemdheden is a meaningful, important thing to do. If the film had Bruce listening to Kurt Cobain songs as a way of relaxing after a fight, that might be enduring of sweet.

However, Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson are using Kurt Cobain's real-life drama as an inspiration for a fictional character that has nothing to do with that real-life person. Since the film hasn't come out, I can only bevestig what has been zei in interviews and in advertisements. If the new Batman film is meant to honor Kurt Cobain, that would be great. However, using a real-life person's drama as inspiration for a fictional character's drama rubs me the wrong way. If Matt Reeves wanted to make a film about the muziek industry and included a tribute to Kurt Cobain, that could be something really good. However, if he truly wants to pay tribute to one of his favoriete singers, I'm not sure if what The Batman film is doing is a step in the right direction. It's a risky choice to make. If the film finds a way to pay tribute to the singer in a meaningful and thoughtful way, that would be wonderful. However, if the film just uses the singer's real-life drama for inspiration, that's a problem.

The Joker is arguably one of the greatest villains in pop culture history. The complete antithesis of Batman in almost every regard, many say he the hero's perfect adversary. His origins are shrouded in mystery, making it impossible to determine who he is and where he came from. This theory, however, could explain who he is, and why he is so obsessed with Batman.

Keep in mind, this is merely a fan theory.

The Joker, in reality, is Bruce Wayne's older brother. For story purposes, we'll call him Jack. Jack was born around 5-10 years before Bruce, and he seemed like a normal child at first. However,...

Batman is a very dark character who I believe could be a very good character for an R rated film his Villians are violent they kill people in gruesome ways and Bruce also needs to be fucking his love interests and he hasn't done it yet why because it isn't appropriate for kids and that's really stupid and as for the cursing I wouldn't want them to do it every seconde obviously but it would be good and make the characters meer serious and badass if the characters cursed in the batman reboot happens I want new Villians, the bat mobile,batarangs,the batwing,the bat motorcycles,a bat jet pack,a different type of suit for batman,the bat claw that batman swings on, and I want it to be rated R. So what do u guys think should a future batman movie have these things of not.
Christopher Nolan has absolutely bastardized the batman character and has ruined the batman universe door making it realistic I hatches realism with a passion a couple of years geleden in an interview one of the producers batman begins zei that Nolan didn't even want to give the scarecrow a mask are u serious could u really think that the scarecrows mask and costume are so corny that u wouldn't include them in the movie and the scarecrows mask and costume aren't corny at they are awesome and the mask that they had in the movie was absolute shit it was horrible looking. And in the dark knight...

Ok, I hate the Hugo Strange/Catwoman rumours. Here's why: first of all I hate Hugo Strange as a villain. He has no villain name of costume, doesn't even LOOK cool, and is completly WEIRD. And Catwoman becouse didn't she already have a film in the reboot series (Catwoman was the only one not to feature Chris Nolan as the director)? Luckily, the movie will be filmed in Asia (bye bye Hugo Strange). That means a possible villain (if not, love interest) Talia Al Ghūl. In Batman Begins, we learn that, unlike Batman comics, when Rās Al Ghūl says he's "immortal" he means the roll of RAG is past on from master to apprentace and that means Talia may become the new Ras Al Ghūl.

But if filmed in a major city (Hong Kong for ex.) the villain my be an assassan like Deadshot. Possibly my favoriete rumour of all time: Black Mask and Hush!!!
A cancelled Batman film, Superman vs. Batman was going to be the fifth batman film untill it was confirmed it wouldn't happen. But after the cancellation of 2013s reboot of 1997s JLA (Justice League: Mortal), Christopher Nolan, the man incharge of both Batman and Superman, Is considering making Superman/Batman: the Movie (AKA Superman vs. Batman). It will possibly the fight of the decade, even better than 2003s Freddy vs. Jason and the DC comics horror comic book god-awful sequel, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash.

Despite the name THIS FILM WILL NOT BE BASED ON SUPERMAN/BATMAN the comic book but an issue of Batman that guest starred Superman where they fought. I'm not sure which one it was but u can buy the digital comic on www.dccomics.com/read

Based on the characters created door Jerry Siegel, Joe shushter and Bob Kane and writen door Grant Morrison.

”BATMAN BEGINS” (2005) Review

When Christopher Nolan’s reboot of the BATMAN franchise first made its debut during the summer of 2005, many critics and moviegoers hailed it as the seconde coming. They also viewed it as a vast improvement over the four films released between 1989 and 1997. Since then, ”BATMAN BEGINS” has been overshadowed door its 2008 sequel, ”THE DARK KNIGHT” and 2012's "THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS". After a recent viewing of the 2005 movie, I must admit that I have a deeper attachment for it.

”BATMAN BEGINS” was basically an origin tale about the scion of a wealthy...

Christopher Nolan’s third Batman film will be called “The Dark Knight Rises” and though the Gotham City auteur isn’t ready to reveal the villain of his 2012 film, he did eliminate one of the big contenders: “It won’t be the Riddler,” Nolan zei in an exclusive interview with Hero Complex.


Riddler rumors were off target. (DC Comics)
Nolan was most eager to talk about the fact that Warner Bros. had agreed with his argument that the film should resist the current 3-D craze and instead use high-definition approaches and IMAX cameras to strike out on a different cinematic path than the...

most people think batman sucks but he is not like that at all.he could take every dc and 3/4 of the marvels only not giant man,storm,captain America,and Thor.but some people would disagree but that's their opinion.And if u read the comics u would see he's been in way,way,way,waaay,worst situations.and would not simply lose without knocking out the other person first,or taking the person down with him.you would see many tricks he could use to win without a scratch.and I'm serous about it.plus his villains,allies,and weapons are way better and original.like in the present days tech.and soon to come.All i can say is read 1 batman comic and tell me he doesn't kick but.and many of his villains are very populair even if u don't read comic's at all.like people know joker,penguin,catwoman,two face,and poison ivy.

p.s. batman adventures is a good comic serous to start with if u decide to become a fan.

My knuckles tore upon as I banged the bricks for the umpteenth time. Sparks flew from the blood that is shed. I shouldn't have been there. It still makes me mad today as I look back. Why was I there? "LET ME OUT!!" I cried to the gaurds outside my thick cell walls. "I don't belong here!"

"Better veilig than sorry." Came a very quiet, muffled voice from the other side. "You're a danger to us all, kid. Even if u didn't mean to kill that cop, you're still guilty of doing it."

My chest ached from the deep bruises they'd give me as I pounded harder. I have to admit, they were smart enough to use bricks...

Help me clear this up. Please. Does everyone dislike Katie Holmes because...

a) all self-righteous
b) not true to the comic (my a** door the way)
c) in Dawson's Creek and who the heck didn't hate Joey in Dawson's Creek

d) "it's not who u are underneath..." That was pretty stupid. And how she's all shaking her head while it's happening. Lame. I gotcha.

e) The Arkham Asylum scene where she's getting on Crane.

f) I honestly can't think of anything else. Maggie Gyllenhal's cute and everything but they wrote her lines all foolishly. And she drags Eckhart down. I'm telling u kiddies that if Eckhart,...
