Why do people pretend that The Batman wasn't terrible?
>>152094243Same reason they act like the Nolan trilogy is good. Normalfags who don't know better.
>>152094243For me, it was kinda boring but it's not bad
It's fine. At the very least it's interesting to see Robert Pattinson develop an actual career that isn't built on thirsty foids.
It's way too fucking long, for starters. It's only a hair shorter than three hours long. That's way too long for a superhero movie, even a good one.Also the movie handles Riddler really hamfistedly because for most of the runtime his actions are pretty justifiable. We keep finding out that everyone he kills is corrupt and evil in some way, so their deaths really aren't such terrible crimes. The movie itself seems to realize this too, towards the end, which is why it goes full retard and gins up the incel shooter plot at the arena. It's like all of a sudden Edwards realized he'd made Riddler too sympathetic and had to beat us over the head with the idea that he's the villain.Also I'm tired of black Catwoman, it's been one raceswap too many by this point.
>>152094243>What's long, hard, and has "cum" in the middle?>...A penis->NO, NO, NO, THE ANSWER WAS CUCUMBER
>>152094243>use Zodiac as inspiration for Riddler>don't make him half as arrogant as ZodiacI've said this before but it just bothers the fuck out of me.Zodiac was a total smug attention-whoring asshole which would fit Riddler perfectly. Instead Riddler's personality feels pretty dry and so do his riddles.
>>152094243I wouldn't say it was terrible, but I was extremely disappointed with it. I'd say it has flashes of greatness, but it's basically just more Nolan like Batman which I have no interest in. I don't want them going full MCU, but Batman Forever is my favorite Batman movie. I want gothic, smoky and grim, but I also want the bombastic elements.It's too long, and the Se7en influence is so blatant. And I have zero (0) interest in this movie's version of Hannibal Lector Joker. I'd kill for Brave and the Bold/60s TV show Joker at this point. I want the Jokermobile, and him to actually be fucking funny for once in a decade.
>>152094355>Also I'm tired of black Catwoman, it's been one raceswap too many by this point.By this point in time, I'm surprised Caped Crusader didn't make her black or latina (or both).
>>152094488He was just that in Arkham games and it was great hearing him speak and justify losing as merely him being compassionate and letting those of inferior intelligence to taste a trace of success that he, The Riddler is blessed with 24/7. Hearing him losing his shit here and there was pretty funny too. Granted the simple design of a green suit and the voice itself really helped too.
>>152094243"Incel domestic terror Riddler" being more of a threat to Gotham than the fucking Penguin was laugh-a-minute. The whole "le Riddler gamer gimp mask army" bit where they talked over their terror plots on not-IRC-not-4chan? Sidesplitting. I think my favorite moment was his autistic meltdown in prison.>"AAAAAAAAAAA">t. genius terror cell leader
>>152094969I forgot about not!4chan, that was unbearably cringe.
>>152094243Because people are really desperate to see DC succeed (especially DC fans) so they try and prop up every DC media. It is the same reason you saw people shilling the mediocre Superman cartoon or Absolute comic line.People are desperate to like DC Comics again.
>>152094257congratulations on being gay and retarded
>>152095187Not me. Fuck 'em.
>>152094243God what a stupid outfit
>Matt Reeves changing their names to “Edward Nashton” and “Oz Cobb”
>>152095232Everything Reeves has done so far reeks of that image. I never realized how insecure manchildren were until they started praising this bargain bin Sopranos while refusing to watch the actual Sopranos because it wasn't nerd media adjacent.
>>152095245Reeves seems like his head is lodged incredibly far up his own ass. Look at how long he's taken just to get the fucking sequel off the ground. He seems to think we're all going to wait for it with bated breath, like it's the Second Coming of Christ. In reality I'm not even sure if I'm gonna see it when it finally comes out, I've gradually grown to like the first movie less and less.
>>152095245Took you that fucking long?I realized it when this board sucked off the unwatchable borefest that is Jessica Jones for how "dark" and "mature" it was.Also Tennant sucks, fuck you.
>>152095198Heath Ledger Joker fucking sucks. Visually. Performance. Everything.
>>152094243Why do people pretend that posting bait isn't terrible?
>>152094243It was only bad enough to be forgettable, like Superman 3, or Captain America Civil War.Recent abortions like Wonder Woman or James Gunn Superman are so much worse you can gloss over yet another lousy Batman.
>>152095245Man that sopranos episode about oral sex was one of the funniest fucking things ever made, I'm using a lot of restraint to not sing "South of the border, where the tuna fish play" in regular conversation
>>152094243I don't know. There are zero good live-action superhero movies or shows.
>>152095437He's great, but the rest of the movie wasn't.
>>152095198>jokerpostingyou know ledger killed himself because he saw the advance cut right
One thing that doesn't get brought up enough in this movie is that for a supposedly "realistic" film Bruce is superhumanly durable. At one point he collides with a huge steel bridge and falls what must have been at least a dozen feet, and he just gets up and walks it off. He's way more invulnerable than NolanBats ever was.
>>152094243Because it was a good movie, and they haven't let a dying porn website for faggy weebs take a shit in their brain to such an extent that they're no longer capable of enjoyment.
