Georgy Zhukov Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Directed by Matt Reeves (War for the Planet of the Apes) starring Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/Batman. Also starring Jeffery Wright, Paul Dano, Zoe Kravtiz, Andy Serkis and Colin Farrel. This film has been in trouble since Affleck left the project forcing new director Matt Reeves to form a new and mostly original story. This will be about Batman's second year as the Caped Crusader and it will be in similar noir to classic films like Chinatown and The French Connection. Pattinson's casting raised some concerns but so has Keaton, Ledger and Gal Gadot. After seeing this trailer it is safe to assume that Pattinson will be great. Only 25 percent of the film was completed before the trailer, the film has resumed production a few days ago after Pattinson has been cleared from COVID. I am sure most of you have already seen this teaser. Just over a year to go. Lets get started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgy Zhukov Posted September 20, 2020 Author Share Posted September 20, 2020 That is some serious nitpicking there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll41 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Happy to hear that Pattinson is covid-free now. Looking forward to this film! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) talented director and I really liked Pattinson in The Rover and The Lighthouse. Could be great provided the script is good. Not sure about Colin Farrel though, but Paul Dano is always good. Excited for this. Edited September 21, 2020 by Rovim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the fat guy in the trailer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydney Fan Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) I must admit i wouldnt have been fussed if christian bale reprised the batman role again. But i couldnt see how afleck would have made the role any good. Wonder if alfred is in the movie and who plays him....

DieselDaisy Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It looks like it's pitched similarly to Nolan's trilogy. My initial thought is it just looks like a reprise of Batman Begins. Where is Adam West when you need him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I think a way to make a Batman movie fresh would be having it take place in the 30s, 40s, 50s, or 60s 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is set in Batman's second year on the job, so it's (thankfully) going to skip the origin story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't we also see Batman in Batman Begins in some homemade taped-together costume doing a bit of low-grade vigilantism? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m also worried that it might be too similar to Nolan’s take but hopefully the final film proves me wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were his first days on the job. This Batman is a little more seasoned, about at the same level as he'd be in "The Dark Knight" where he was like 6 months to a year into the job or whatever it was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-W.A.R- Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Also seems to be more darker than standard superhero fare. I typically don't care for these films but i enjoyed TDK because that was basically a crime thriller with superhero characters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I think BvS and Justice League were poor movies, but Afleck was not bad in the role. The trailer looks cool, but the issue I have is that we have seen this before. We had the "dark, semi realistic early" Batman story with Batman begins. It's just an issue all superhero movies face now, everything has been done. That's why I think making it a period piece to mimic the original comics could have been a fun spin to set it apart 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it's kind of exhausting. Endgame felt like a natural send-off to the genre. I'll still go see some but if they are going to keep going, creative spins would be welcome. A Bob Kane inspired Batman movie is a no brainier to me, what else can they do yo make a Batman movie unique?

There have been a ton of them Batman isn't like a superhero film to me, it's more like Bond. You can't keep doing Avengers movies, but you can keep making Batman movies and replacing the actor who plays Batman every few years. He's the most iconic of the superhero's, and he's human in a relatively real world! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
