The Batman

[Resident Bat Nerd]

Unsurprisingly, word online is that Matt Reeves' The Batman trilogy is expected to cast a new Joker, to be introduced in the second film, and also appear in the third of a planned trilogy.

The real question is will you get a terrible tattoo of this joker to match your terrible dark knight joker tattoo. Time will tell!

As a real bat nerd versed in dc continuity (not just a hipster poser who claims to be ) I can confirm Matt's first film is based on Geoff johns batman earth one.

I hope to god there's a Batman sequel to Joker, although it might be tricky to pull off properly.

I hope so too, would be so sick if pulled off. Phoenix's Joker would be awesome to see like 5-10 years down the road.

funny, I feel like I'm becoming a Bat Nerd myself.I want to really get into the Bat universe deeper this summer. I might subscribe to the DC Universe..I admit- I've hardly read the comics but want to.

OK so, i hate to appear to be into drama, or into personal controversy, but who is this, that they were banned after one seemingly innocuous post? someone's gotta tell me.

did we have some sort of Batman troll who was here before under a different name or something?

Edit: someone gave me the lowdown, on the downlow, so now I know

A Clockwork Batman. Bit of the old ultra-violence.

sounds horrowshow to me, droogiwoog.

I love the Joker as a character and I'm not averse to having multiple different interpretations of him, but even so, it feels way too early to be introducing yet another take on him when there have very recently been two others. This would be the third version in a five-year span, which seems like too much too soon and bound to disappoint. But hey, I wouldn't mind being proven wrong about it either.

I mean, just pick someone other than Joker at this point. FFS.



Bat-Mite. sure, fucking go for Bat-Mite.

Side note: watched the episode of Community where everyone has a batman code name and "Voice of Diedrich Bader" was the best one.

False, I lurk all the time. I think you're a cunt and an arrogant douchebag and as a huge bat nerd seeing you bite that style is infuriating. You're a piece of shit, you don't live in my head, I unfortunately come across your filth and finally decided to laugh in your face (as others did at the time) of your terrible joker tatoos ( I still laugh at how bad they were and how everyone laughed at you)

Anyways that's the real story!!!

As you were lib tard cunts!!!!!

You've got to be shitting me.

The plot thickens.

Right? Such a sad little person...it's been legitimately like two years since last hearing from him. Should I have been paying rent? lol

Speaking of (and last mention of this fuckin' loser)...just got this awesome Instagram message now haha




Imagine that was your life lol.

Anyways, back to The Batman! Anyone catch Pattinson's GQ interview recently? An interesting dude lol.

That microwave pasta story is fucking bonkers.

How this man is functional or successful on any level is beyond my comprehension. Did he grow up in a stately home with servants or something?

[BRoswell]

Pattinson is, by his own admission, a compulsive liar in a lot of interviews. Don't take what he says too seriously.

[dlb]

He's still a pretty weird guy with a mind on his own. Then again, look at Phoenix and what a crazy good performer he is. Fairly confident that Pattison won't dissappoint in The Batman as much as I don't dig the rest we've been seeing so far.

[eversonpoe]

i HATE the twilight movies but they're worth watching with commentary because he just spends the whole time trashing them. i can't believe they allowed them to be put on the discs.

[Qualis_Dolor]

These 3D renderings are hella good. I thought they were photos at first glance.

Damn, his head fits the mask really nice. I love how this looks. His flat nose is very bat-like.

[Wretchedest]

Oh man I was kind of avoiding this thread for lack of news, but I've been missing out

I'm ready for a good Riddler portrayal on screen.

[versusreality]

What other villians would translate well to screen?

Clayface?
The Phantasm?

Oh man, Phantasm is returning to canon via the comics and I’m puuuuumped!

[dlb]

Possibilities are endless with villains like the Riddler or Two-Face (I loved him in the Dark Knight and wished for more) and even Clayface if they can make the CGI work (thinking about something like The Thing here) or have a really nasty Killer Croc serving as a henchman to another bigger foe. While I'm not the biggest fan of the Nolan Batman-universe I give him major kudos for opening his trilogy wit Ra's al Ghul and Scarecrow and heck, even Harley Quinn gave us Black Mask (kind of...).

And I thought a movie about Deathstroke would have worked really well too while the first glimpses of test footage and his small cameo in Justice League looked rather promising.

[r_z]

Always loved Black Mask's origin and story in the comics.

If done right: Mad-Hatter
Also Zasz, Ventriloquist, Anarchy, Hugo Strange, The Court of Owls...

I'm sick and tired of the Joker, TBH

[october_midnight]

As a real bat nerd versed in DC continuity (not just some lurker loser with nothing of value to contribute to the species) I can confirm that filming of The Batman will officially resume on July 6! No subsequent change of release date, so fingers crossed.
