The Batman (June 25, 2021)

I'm sure that moment could still play into his assault on Riddler's gang in my new finale. The last thing I want to do is take action out of this movie.

I also enjoyed his beatdown of the Riddler gang -- it was a nice callback to '66.

The more I think on Dano, the more I really love his take. I mean, Batman is supposed to battle "the monsters" of our time -- in the 30/40's it was gangsters... today, Dano makes a perfect "modern monster".

It was the weird face he made right before that. I need to find it. But yeah, moving forward they need to keep the mask off. He's too good to hide under a mask. The mask made sense as a way to keep his identity a secret in this film, but in a sequel, just keep it off.

Yeah, the fights seemed realistic -- despite close gunfire -- and clearly took a toll on Batman.

Hell, if I was him, I think I would have jacked up on adrenaline a lot sooner.

where on earth is it possible to see this hi def version from home?

I know what you mean, I got chills when he did it. But that pic is all I could find.

Yeah, the fight choreography was something I could accept because it wasn't always pretty and it cost energy. Stuff like that really jumps out at me.

Loved the adrenaline shot. That's how you make it grounded. Grounded doesn't mean boring.

One thing I hope DC/WB does not do is break this new Gotham by introducing Superman into it one day.

Are you talking about intovoid? That guy was convinced tdkr was the best Batman movie of all time. And some other guy named woffard. And then there was another guy named solid snake who kept saying Nolan could do no wrong.

funny. Make a Batman film and suddenly people think your god or something

I swear there was another Batman Super fan I just can’t remember the name..

But intothevoid holy crap that’s the pakistani kid alright you just made DiFabio do this..

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, the fight choreography was ... wasn't always pretty....

Yep, it felt natural. Lots of times Batman missed a goon behind him who gets a shot in. Lots of sloppy moves that looked real. They did a great job.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I loved Batman's "electric" hand. I was hoping to see it used more -- like shock-punches! Or a Spock style taser-knock-out so he can "get passed the guards" quietly.

I wonder if they'll introduce a young Robin. Batman was looking at that little boy an awful lot. I got Michael Jackson vibes

They added "Dorothy" or whatever her name was to the Manor to cool the whole gay vibe.

I think Bruce can do better, just sayin'.

Although things won't go well between him and Selina in the sequel when she unmasks him and discovers he's white -

I mean rich. Discovers he's rich.

That Batmobile was something else. As far as design goes, I think 89 is still my favorite , but this batmobile felt like another tool to make people afraid. Previous cars were just cool looking or a practical vehicle for Batman to get around, but the way this batmobile was introduced in the shadows, with that powerful engine noise, it was so impressive. I got goosebumps during that scene.

That was especially needed in 66

That screaming banshee sound the car made was indeed awesome.

I enjoyed the chase although I don't know why Batman encouraged Penguin to drive against traffic for so long.

Returns batmobile still burned somebody alive lol

Returns batmobile still burned somebody alive lol

Yeah, I forgot about that.

He sure murdered that guy in a horrific way, but somehow it was played for laughs. It wasn't intimidating.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I love the Burton-mobile but it is ridiculously impractical.

The Schumacher versions looked like LED sex toys.

The Tumbler had a terrible name and looked too much like a moon buggy -- I wish Bruce had personalized his "black" one more. Not a sexy Bat-vehicle.

The Batman's muscle car seems practical for him, has the needed "drama" to inspire fear, and still retains some artificial "Bat" style.
