Batman Reboot

[The Iron Koob]

Bale didn't seem like he had ever been in a real fight. He didn't seem to know how to behave in the moments between the punches. Also I think we should only see Bruce Wayne for the majority of MOS2 and then maybe seem some Batman at the end. Or maybe at the end and a fight with Superman somewhere in the middle

 

[lerath666]

While a Gymnist COULD work,we would then need on HELL of a fight choreographer.


...

i was kinda kidding before.. but... with some makeup, and a shave... I COULD see JDF as Bruce/batman..

and he is no stranger to the concept of playing a superhero....

Or spandex.

I disagree.
MOS 2 needs to have Minimal to NO Bruce/ batman.

Have his big Scene be a Nick Fury in Iorn man esque scene at the very VERY end where he unmasks before clark, and tells him he has na idea.. and that's it.

We don't need a whole lot of batman, IF any at all before Justice League.

We know who Batman is. We understand his story. We, the auidence can just have him directly inserted into Justice leage, and we would know who he is.

that would work for me

A good choreographer is really the key ingredient no matter who you have in the role. At that point, it's a question of who can best perform the actions the choreographer wants, and I think there are a number of different kinds of athletes who could perform that job effectively. Unless they want to let guys with martial arts backgrounds freestyle mock fight and then keep whatever comes out the best.

That COULD be good too, But When you mix someone with a solid martial arts background, WITH a talented fight choreographer, you end up with AMAZING results. as they hash out a realistic, and DRAMATIC sequence, by bouncing ideas off one another.

My love for Tommy in my childhood is almost as great as my love of Batman. I know he could pull off the action, but can he really act? I mean has he done anything acting wise other than PR?

I would introduce Wayne as either a business partner of Luthor or as the new owner of the Daily Planet. Either way he's only doing this to get close to Superman. To see if he can trust him. At the end, have Clar fly to his apartment, and have Batman waiting on him in the Dark. They talk about teaming up. He knows Clark's identity because he's the world's greatest detective. Clark knows it's Bruce Wayne because of x-ray vision. They banter, and promise to stay in touch. Batman leaves, warning him, that Gotham is off limits.

He's got SOME acting credits listed on his IMDB page.
Granted about 2/3rd of them are power rangers, but why not?

Hell, tehy let Clooney do it.. and tat was a massive bucket of fail.

Granted, I know it would never happen, But tell me he dosn't have the features for it.

I could live with that. Though, I'd make it a background plot.

OMG that's Tommy from Power Rangers. I completely didn't recognize him

wow...you're right. I didn't even notice at first

I think the Arkham look would work great. John Hamm would be a good Batman/Bruce Wayne--strong jawline for Batman, suave and sophisticated playboy look for Wayne. But at 42 he might be a little too old for the role since they are no doubt thinking long-term franchise.

 

[lerath666]

My point Exactly. Dude became an MMA fighter. Tell me that ( physicaly) you think He'd make a beliveable bruce Wayne/ batman.

LOL... i coul'dn help myself. I tossed the suggestion onto his facebook page.

he'd be perfect for a kingdom come or dark knight returns

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

He'd finally get to play the Black Ranger

 

[lerath666]

Agree. Hamm is too old for the " Young" look. tehy'd undoubtalby want to go for.

But he'd make an awesome " older " batman....


Or even a Thomas Wayne for flashbacks.

Pffft

I'm serious though.. I wanna see that happen now

It would def be background. The Luthor angle would either be Wayne Enterprises is partnering with Lex Corp to help rebuild Metropolis. They have a press Conference, we see Bruce and Lex. Lex is up to no good as usual. Bruce doesn't appear again until the end. Batman does not help foil the plot. We may get a hint that he was there helping from the shadows, like a discarded batarang that saved Lois or whatever.

The Planet angle. Paint the newspaper as it would be in real life, a dying medium. There are several companies looking to purchase it. At the end it's revealed the new owner is Wayne Enterprises. As a bonus scene have Clark eating lunch at a diner or whatever. A man sits down across from him. It's Bruce, who may tease that he knows Clark is Superman. Clark can fire back that he thought the Batman was an Urban Legend, but was shocked to discover not only does he exist, but he is Bruce Wayne. This puts them on equal footing. And a mutual respect develops.

That's the thing, though. Why does Batman always have to be young? And why does everyone associate an older Batman with TDKR or Kingdom Come? When you factor in the math with all of the Robins and everything, pre-new 52, comic Bats is in his late 30's-early 40's. On the subject of the New 52, though, I wouldn't mind seeing that suit in the movies. Or even an amalgam of it and the Arkham one.

 

[lerath666]

That... could definitely work.

He dosn't HAVE to. BUT With the New 52 world, DC/warner has reset all the heroes to be younger.
It's clear that this is the direction they're headed. Even superman has only been superman for a few weeks in his film, batman will not have been a hero for that long either

I think in the new 52, Everyone else has had 5 years, batman's had 3-4 more years than everyone else, to account for robin/nightwing.

so he is a LITTLE older, he's not that muchg older. simply more expierenced.

 

[karamazov80]

In traditional comic continuity Batman is roughly 34 years old. Batman is expected to be somewhat young so that, you know, he doesn't have his knees going out all the time, doesn't suffer arthritis, doesn't have to take lots of breaks, etc.

Hamm could also be any number of swell JSA elder statesman advisor-types. Would make a PERFECT Mr. Terrific.
