For 3 hours impressive!

Since there have only been two, I guess "arguably one of" is correct!

I always forget Batman '66, though it doesn't really change my point.

Movie crossed 500 mil worldwide . 300 domestic. Good legs.

For 3 hours impressive!

So will it be judged like BvS if it doesn't crack a bil?

Nah unlike this movie that movie sucked hard. Plus it’s the Covid era .

Sorry @Prime Clone. Was really excited for that film and the possibilities but after I watched it I was massively let down . Judging from ur pic I know you probably like it lol.

BvS had an epic opening.

Lots to love in it actually but unfortunately the “bullet investigation” and Clark’s “Batman investigation” left alot to be desired.

People, and Hollywood, have already forgotten about BvS.

I have to admit, I got a forboding sense of dread when the Riddler made his pitch in the film.
Made me wonder how many people out there would idolize this monster, and if another Aurora type incident could occur …

Been a while since I was in a theater, and I have to admit, I looked around to remind myself where the exits were..

I'm glad none of that happened this go-around. It has to be unnerving for the studio, anticipating the risk of that happening. Especially now.

I hope no one tries to copy the Riddler. Fortunately, the ones who might have an interest will likely drown their efforts trying to come up with good riddles. That, and they are likely already busy with QAnon connections.

'SOK, I've always known I was in the minority. Based on the number of unpopular films I like I probably have a low bar

BvS is too disjointed with a very shallow layer of drama but man is Affleck a beast in it. Funnel fairy butter ball remains one of my favorite Alfred moments ever lol

TB is personal and for a 3 hour movie surprisingly small in scope which serves it well that is until the great flood.

 

[Wor-Gar]

until the great flood.

Water makes Batman a Moses like savior leading his people to the the promised land.... or some BS like that was pitched in the development meeting.

I’m starting to think for the narrative he should’ve changed into Bruce and then performed those acts including with the national guard outside!

Think about it he got called out by the DA for being a recluse and not doing any philanthropy so now BAM here is savior Bruce out in public while keeping his Batman hidden.

Would’ve driven Riddler even more crazy saving the Wayne name, no?

Well to be fair, Gotham is the only U.S. city that's below sea level, so there goes the core aspect of a real-world Piddler's plan.

And 99.9% of mass shooters don't seem to need a movie to give them ideas.

I like that idea. Batman saves Bruce's "identity".

But maybe it hurts in later movies when he's supposed to be the spoiled useless rich kid, if they go that route.

Well it’s too late for that because in this movie Riddler’s entire problem was that Bruce came from a spoiled family even as an orphan he had if made looking down on the people.

We can have a multiverse spoiled Bruce that Batman has to fight though would you like that Wor-Verse lol

Actually i’m not comprehending what you meant lol

Bvs had an epic premise but here is my problem with it

lex Luther. What a joke. The greatest superhero is thwarted by some fidgety weirdo nerd.

Batman vs Superman yet they only fight once. In a very dull fight I might add.

doomsday. Wtf were they thinking? Idk if this was a Snyder decision or a WB one but why the hell would you bring in doomsday and then have him kill Superman in the second Superman film? Out of all the characters they could have teamed up against. You choose doomsday? Then try to recreate arguably the most impactful Superman comic but with no impact .

Martha doesn’t bother me but what bothers me is how Batman suddenly drops his silly vendetta and wants to save his mom cause they have the same name. Sheesh what if his moms name was Bernice? Was he just going to say “to bad” and stab him?

the Justice league reveal. That was so damn lazy.


you know honestly I could go on but like I said I had high hopes for the film and I loved the affleck suit and how he acted . But I can’t get behind him being in gotham for 20 plus years and Superman only being active for 2. Also I can’t see the cringe tat joker being a threat to affleck whatsoever.

i forgave man of steel but bvs crushed my hopes for a good universe with dc.

I have no idea what that Clint Eastwood V.O. drivel was at the end of this movie as he's rescuing people at flooded Madison Square Garden (and omg that Moses high-shot )

I may have liked most of this movie more than the Nolan grimefests but it didn't mean there weren't a constant stream of chuckles and eye-rolls.

I honestly don't know how people take some of these movies seriously. Me - I just keep thinking "shoot him in the face!" or "pull on his cape!"
