Thorongil Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Am I alone in thinking Batman is absolute shit? The only time I’ve ever enjoyed any Batman content is when Michael Keaton played him. Other than that I find him so incredibly dull. The Nolan films were among the most boring I’ve ever seen, the first one especially. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still scope for him to appear as an old b*****d. Chris Evans is very lukewarm on it and I suspect the TVA might have something to say.

The keaton ones were fantastic, then it went a bit tits up although carrey and jones performace as riddler and two face were quite good The nolan ones were good however the last one kinda dragged on a bit at times, Since then WB and DC have tried to do a marvel but keep making a mess of it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) I loved the campy 60s series and the 90s films. I even like the almost universally reviled "Batman and Robin". I was a child when I saw it and haven't seen it since, in my defence. Enjoyed the Nolan films though find "Batman Begins", which everyone else seems to like best, to be the least engaging of the three. Thought "Batman vs Superman" was shite and "Justice League" was so bad it had me pining for "Batman vs Superman". "Joker" was excellent, if that counts as a Batman film.

Mark Connolly Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 DC would be far better off just doing stand alone movies based on the best of their comics, rather than trying to copy Marvel's shared Universe. The new Long Hallowe'en animated movie is magnificent BTW 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I reckon they could have carried on after Joker and made some more baddy origin story films. Or focused on the minor characters. Some of the best Marvel films have been stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man, who I had never heard of until the films came out. DC just seemed to think we've got Batman and Superman we don't have to make an effort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbearable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jupiter’s Legacy seems to be a Netflix turkey and his ego won’t like that one bit, but even the comic felt a bit lacking and derivative. He's a total fud. It's a shame, as I've liked some of his comics over the years. https://twitter.com/mrmarkmillar/status/1390062045664620544?s=20 Edited August 6, 2021 by milton75 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was initially a lefty, a maverick and an independence supporter. All it took was a bit of money and fame to turn him into a complete walloper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kebab Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Well that’s the first “What If…?” watched and I enjoyed it well enough, but I certainly wasn’t blown away by it, I get the impression that if it’s just a lot of stand-alone stories it could all get a bit meh!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
