>>215005615just have scott snyder write the script
>>215005615>Muh grimdark psychological thriller Batman movie What movie will Reeves rip off? Silence of the Lambs?
>>215005656Please understand. He doesn't have the talent or skill to craft actually resonant and original works from his own mind and experiences and has to resort to making pastiches of works like that through a juvenile cartoon/comic franchise for children but forced into being a serious adult drama, embarassing to anyone who is mentally an adult, because no one would fund his other works if he had any to make. This garbage for manchildren is his life's work which is why he took 4 years to write the script. It was so good. Also, have you seen his beautiful Asian wife and Asian children?

>>215005656>>215005786Red Dragon. Strange is Lecter while Anarky is the Dollarhyde equiavlent. it sets up court of owls near the end.
Why does no one want to actually make a Batman movie and just wants to put a lamer Batman into their crime dramas and action movies?He has so many cool villains, but everyone wants to make gritty realistic nonsense in their movies about a billionaire in a fursuit. I want the Patman to deal with Clayface and Mr Freeze and the Penny Plunderer. I don't want the Zodiac Killer.
>>215005882Telling you, just wait for his next acclaimed series. It’s gong to be Poison Ivy ripping off Erin Brockovich. Pamela Isley is going to be the crusading environmentalist against the evil white corporations
>>215006028Here's an AMAZING CHUNGUS idea: what if, and get this, but Substance but actually it's Clafyace!! wait, they're making that? wait uhhh what if the master but it's hugo strange! what if American Beauty but it's about Jim Gordon!! I AM AN ADULT AND KNOW ABOUT ADULT THINGS CANT YOU TELL PLEASE NOTICE
>>215005934Because action thrillers with crime elements are the most dead and underfunded genre of movies that exist. If you want one funded at a top studio, you have to do this shit. Even so, if you do, you're a hack that doesn't deserve to be called a filmmaker and just sold out.
>>215005934because superhero movies suck and are gay and for babies
>>215005615Unless this is "gunns universe" it ain't happening lol
>>215006211No, they're based. What is gay and for babies is taking these cartoon characters and twisting them into juvenile adult grimdark slop.
It will be a pastiche of every asylum film ever,. mostly one flew over the cuckoos nest. But there's a guy in a bat costume as well that beats up bad guys, so overweight man children will consider it a masterpiece and deep subversion of the genre
Just do Calendar Man, but it's a rip off of Zodiac
>>215006028>Erin Brockovicha horseshit case with no scientific backing where none of the people with cancer got any notable amount of money after finally getting it but Erin herself made quite a pretty penny off of it
>>215006304What a miserable state of affairs.
>>215005615I don't really care for cape stuff anymore, but I remember enjoying this at the age of 15. Mainly because of the art, though. I'm not sure how they'd translate that aesthetic to film.
>Amadeus ArkhamI really don't know if this is a Glupo Shitto type of joke or not
>>215006594That's the guy who founded Arkham Asylum in the 1800s.
