What Batman centric live movie that has come out in the last 20-30 years hasn’t been popular?


Being popular depends on the metric. That kind of has to be defined.

I'm sorry dear. Who's this y'all? I'm not upset. I don't like the change and I haven't melted over it, but you sure the frick went nuclear in this thread

All I ever wanted to do was make the point that it's ok for people to not like when they do these things.

Enjoy the movie!

Define popular. Batman and Robin and Batman Forever are roasted almost universally. Forever was so bad that it had less box office than Batman Returns.

So simply commenting in a thread is bitching? Have you looked in a mirror lately? You're doing the exact thing that supposedly makes you miserable reading this board.

Ah, the ol’ I’m going to bitch but if anyone counters my opinion I’m gonna try to run them off the board technique.

Nice try, I’m not going anywhere.

Whose posts are you reading? You are the one that said you were miserable reading the posts here. I simply pointed out that you're doing the very thing you said makes you miserable reading this board.

Has a “Se7en” feel from everything preview we’ve seen.

Which is great because Se7en is phenomenal.

Of course it does. Have you heard of Batgirl?


You mean Batwoman?

There's been an Asian Batgirl (Cassandra Cain), but never one that was black.

Besides, most people were just plain pissed at Ruby Rose (not black) for ruining the character. Casting a black woman was less "tokenization" and more "hail mary to salvage a show". The black version of Batwoman was original to the series; the regular identity just showed up last year but has not worn any costume yet.

Considering the president of this country is selecting a supreme court justice solely off race and gender, I'm not sure how you even post stuff like this with a straight face
I mean this isn’t anything new. Amy Coney Barrett was nominated by Trump because she was a woman; same with Sandra Day O'Connor when she was nominated by Reagan. It would be a problem if they hadn’t been qualified, same with Biden’s pick, but we don’t even know who that is to have a problem yet.

The point is nobody likes having a change of race/sex of an existing character for simple sake of change in an effort to insert political agenda.


How is that a political agenda? He's a great actor. Do you not think its possible that they hired him because he's a good actor? Are there not enough white characters in the show for you?

Did Trump come out and say he would only be considering a woman? That's rhetorical considering he picked multiple justices.

Here's a non-rhetorical question: How has Biden's identity politics style worked out with his VP?

If it doesn't make a difference, why did they do it? No other actors capable of playing such a demanding part?



Are you serious? He's a good actor. Believe it not, there are good black actors too and get the job based on ability.

Why did they hire a white actor to play Alfred? Or the Riddler? Or Penguin? Are there not any black actors that can handle such demanding roles? Its a movie made up of %90 white people, yet you're mad that a role character is black.

This guys been solid on a lot of info

quote:

Received a text from a source who’s seen #TheBatman calling it a “complex” film, comparing it to:

ZODIAC
CHINATOWN
THE USUAL SUSPECTS
THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS

Source also stating it will be “controversial” and people will discuss it “endlessly”

Thoughts?

That’s unfortunate. Because the sheer meltdown that occurs over these things on this board have started to derail most show and movie threads on here.


I cant even fathom the meldtown you and your ilk would be having if Batman had an all white cast.
