Darc_Requiem Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 Oh, saw The Batman. It was good. Won't say much beyond that. Well except this....not really a spoiler but I'll tag it anyway. Spoiler We finally get a real detective Batman. Chadouken and OPTIMUS124 2 Quote Link to comment

axeman61 Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 (edited) The Batman was good. It's not as good as The Dark Knight, but it's still a pretty good movie and an interesting take on the Batman I haven't seen on screen before (with all the detective stuff). I'd give it an 8 out of 10 right now. I plan on seeing it again, and my opinion might change.

Darc_Requiem Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 I'm curious to see how @iStu X "date" goes. If he can't recall many details from The Batman, we'll know it went well. If she wants to sit in the back corner of the theatre, you're good to go fam. 👀 Quote Link to comment

OPTIMUS124 Posted March 5, 2022 Share Posted March 5, 2022 Saw the movie. I thought it was good. The sum of its parts definitely outweigh some of its flaws. Everyone acted their ass off. Anyone that calls Pattinson "Sparkles" at this point. He was great. I think he carries "Fear" better than those that have been in the role previously. Solid recommend. There were two moments that I laughed at that shouldn't have been funny. 1. A riddle 2. Green "tea" You'll get it when you see it 🤣 RSG3, BornWinner and Darc_Requiem 1 2 Quote Link to comment

As someone that has never watched Twilight, I've only seen him films that showed he was a good actor. I can't wait for the inevitable sequel. When... Spoiler We get to see him with a perfected secret identity. And by that I mean Bruce Wayne. Batman was still figuring things out in this film. I must say Pattinson's rendition of Batman nailed both the detective and "fear" aspect of the character better than anyone. Edited March 5, 2022 by Darc_Requiem OPTIMUS124 1 Quote Link to comment

Yep, that's where my mind instantly went after that. Plus with the announced spinoffs, this gives plenty of material for those shows (especially Penguin) to run with And speaking of Penguin, still don't think he needs his own show, but after Colin's performance, I can definitely see my self tuning in and why it was greenlit in the first place. He was great as Penguin, I was glued to every scene he was in. Edited March 6, 2022 by HD-Man RSG3 and CDB2k20 2 Quote Link to comment

iStu X Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) The Batman was fine. Nothing about it really wowed me outside of Pattinson’s performance. He was absolutely incredible. But for me the movie just felt like it was spinning it’s wheels for two-and-a-half hours. Spoiler No Man’s Land set up was a swerve I wasn’t expecting but I’m cool with it.

I remember watching the segment and being like “giiiiirl Captain America has literally always been anti-government. He’s PRO the American Dream and equality. I’ve genuinely lost count how many times Cap has thrown down the shield and Told the government to go fuck themselves” I mean, shit, in the 80’s a lot of Captain America was just the writer (name escapes me) just shitting on the Reagan administration BY NAME by mentioning the crack epidemic and several other things destroying neighborhoods that were in the majority of black and Hispanic residents. Comics, even when they were just news strips have ALWAYS been political/woke/whatever you want to call it. People that read comics and bitch about that shit are just fucking stupid and shouldn’t be taken seriously Edited March 8, 2022 by iStu X RSG3, HD-Man and CDB2k20 3 Quote Link to comment

But at some point white liberals got it and made it more about being progressive in values ie. being pro lgbtq, pro minority and stuff like that....THENNNN right wingers started using it as a term to insult everything non conservative. being anti-progressive Quote Link to comment

Jion_Wansu Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Superman & Lois is on point. The CW getting back to the glory days. Saw the Naomi episode after that too. Something about Earth 29? In the comics, isn't bizarro world Earth 29? Wonder if Naomi will soon do a crossover. Also, don't forget, new episode of The Flash tonight! We might see Edie Thawne again. The WWE should take some pages out of the CW when it comes to writing, at least for Superman & Lois that is. Quote Link to comment
