Chris- Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I honestly think Colin Farrell as the Penguin looks like John Travolta as Robert Shapiro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris- Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Also, I’d submit that in hindsight Nolan’s films weren’t really ‘dark’, it just seemed that way given the juxtaposition with the Burton and Schumacher films. This looks *dark*, dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in South Bend, IN so the drive was about 2 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remarkableriots Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 @sblfilms Only time i ever visited Texas was to go to that steakhouse with the steak challenge? I just had the normal size steak and steak soup though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks *dark*, dark. I would tend to agree. With the exception of a few moments, the Nolan films are solidly PG-13 and don’t delve particularly deeply into the dark reaches of the Batman/Bruce Wayne psyche. I think TDK in particular has a darker veneer than it really holds. Bruce is an oddly hopeful person in much of the film. BB could damn near be a PG on the basis of tone and thematics.

This looks *dark*, dark. I think "relatively grounded" might be a better way of putting it. They weren't wacky or campy, or overly reliant on "comic book logic." I agree they're not really "dark." Also, not sure if it was already posted, but Matt Reeves put up the trailer in 4K on Vimeo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoJoe Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Is anyone else tired of these gritty Batman movies? The trilogy was fine and Affleck was meh imo. I wish they would redo a Keaton/animated style Batman, with over the top cartoony villains, gadgets and actual colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I'm not sure an Adam West style live action Batman movie would work nowadays. I would appreciate an animated film in the vein of Spider-Verse with a big budget! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, a production by Lord and Miller would probably be perfect for a not-so-serious animated Batman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I need a campy Batman move perse, but something less grounded and more superheroic might work. Somewhere between Burton's Batman and Nolan's I think might work. This Batman (at least from the trailer) doesn't differentiate itself enough from Nolan's movies for my tastes. No one has really done the 70's Batman who was pretty much a detective and James Bond in a Bat-Suit. We went from 60's Batman to 80's Batman and have pretty much been stuck there.

This looks *dark*, dark. When you approach The Dark Knight Rises as the unintentional comedy it very obviously is in hindsight, that movie specifically is not dark at all.

Guest Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 It should also be noted that the trailer is cut from only 25% of the scheduled principal photography. Who knows what the rest of the flick is like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we are far from the end of the movie release date carousel. We still don’t have all the post production vendor capacity back, so finishing movies is also going to continue to cause delays. The shooting schedule changes will have other knock on effects as these movies jockey for position in the overall pipeline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
