I lmao when he beat up that clown LOL. I did think he was the Riddler at the end tho until I watched it again. Getting Hush vibes.

This trailer did nothing for me, I’m willing to give it a shot but I didn’t see enough that sets it apart from Nolan trilogy everything looks exactly the same. I’m glad they’re keeping Batfleck around to give different vibes because this is literally TDK 2.0...
Pattinson's Bruce looks very '70s. Think of Strange Apparitions which had a very youthful and young-looking Bruce. In fact it's kind of strange how Christian Bale's Batman and now Pattinson's seems to lapse back to the '70s characterization, being more softer in features than the Batman of Year One (who Frank Miller wanted to look like a young Gregory Peck).
Matt Reeves is a talented guy...he has some misfortune in that his Batman movies are gonna look a fair bit like Nolan's and it's very much a gritty take, updating from Michael Mann (Nolan's touchstone) to David Fincher's (Reeves).Overall this looks very promising. Its very Batman at his best and I also think it will bring a good ice punch to the comic films genre , which has gotten boring and predictable. I feel as if this is a comic movie that is getting back to basis away from the cinematic crossover lighthearted set up universe fad. I have faith in Matt Reeves. He is like James Mangold, does not give a **** about sticking to a formula and very unapologetic about his stance as a director and writer.
The problem with Batman in movies is that he's so overexposed...it kind of feels like that there's not much more to see anymore except good cover versions.
Well, it's been 12 years since TDK. I'm down for another street level/Netflix take on Batman with lots of human Batman. TDK is a Joker movie, TDKR about an end of his career vigilante, Batfleck is the shared universe superhero. Chinatown is an influence for Reeves version.
Glad your happy with more of the same because this fits right into Nolan’s universe like a continuation. It just seems like to me DC is lazy and overly reliant on Batman because it’s easy, fairly inexpensive to make and brings in profit because it’s Batman. Hope it turns out good for them.
I'm LOVING the David Fincher vibes from this.
I would not put too much on comic book drawings. We know how comics were drawn in certain eras, a moving picture is a better fit to justify characters look alikes. Robert's face, hair and jawline looks more like Terry from Batman Beyond.

There is some truth that Batman is now overexposed. 3 batman news in less than 2 months and nothing for Superman.

Batman is the second overexposed superhero property. MCU is the first , however Batman at least has and can maintain some creative diversity, so although exposed I don't think it has reached the point of suffocating.
We finally got confirmed news that Batman takes place in its own universe, I think this would help it too. Back to basis comic book movies feels like a new thing again away from MCU and DCU.
Besides the Batman universe is just too good to not always have something out there. good or bad, I think this one is a good.
Trailer looks good, considering how little of the movie has been filmed.
Is that Riddler or Hush? I don't want Riddler to look like Hush. I really want a legit Riddler.
You gotta give him more credit than this. He made a few of those movies very early in his career, has mostly derided them, and gone on to do many very well regarded films that make up the majority of his career.
I was never a teenage girl, so I've never seen a Twilight movie. I can only speak to his other films, and I've always enjoyed him in them.
I know, that was my point. He looks like Hush, not Riddler. And yes, I’ve read Hush, I’m sure I know what they’re doing here.
Over-saturation only really becomes a thing when the money and excitement stops coming in.
James Bond can recast and use largely the same formula dozens of times, and it’s fine. Batman seems likely to have a similar success.
Now we just need to get Superman and other heroes to the same set-up...
Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?
I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP
Almost expected Batman to have Spider-Man/Deadpool CGI eyes because the Cowl looks unfinished. The costumes (Bruce/Selina/Riddler) will probably change over 3 movies. Penguin looks like he walked out of a comic.
