@@NerdyNightly How so? It's apparent you don't know much about the character. While he went through a bout in the 60's with Adam West, it was a dark comic book from the very beginning vs. what existed then. Batman is the World's Greatest Detective for a reason. Reeves said this film is in year 2 of Bruce Wayne being Batman, and this is the first true mystery he has to solve.

Batman was always a grim character. This is a Batman that’s completely unhinged and really doesn’t care about how his methods are, no matter how violent. That’s why the movie is called “The Batman.” He’s the vigilante, not the hero yet. Stories like year one, ego, those are very dark stories and the main inspiration for this film. The Bruce Wayne for this version is darker and more broken, his look represents that. This movie is gonna be dark, and that’s very intentional.
I heard everything about this trailer, but too serious, dark/grim? This is the *DARK* knight in his early years, full of trauma and anger, is it supposed to be a comedy? This is the most on point atmosphere for a Batman movie i've seen so far! You should stick to colourful, quirky, basic Marvel movies lol
Your reaction is bc of Marvel latest super hero movies. Funny heros making jokes all the time. But here, batman is traumatized and overcoming it by beating criminals and putting his revenge there. He is young and violent. I hope we'll see hjs growth
I think I get where y'all heads are @... It seems nobody wants to do mid-career Batman in the 21st Century and choose to do the early years or as in the case of Dark Knight Rises & Affleck, late into his career.. But the Danny o'Niel/Neil Adams years; globe trotting; Robin by his side; a colourful Gotham (not literally I mean variety) stuff never makes it to the big screen. That being said, Im excited as HELL for this one, Riddler's arrest is giving me John Doe vibe to him & this Bruce is less a hero and more a wraith.
How do you guys not know why this is dark.🤔 Seems like you guys are complaining about how dark this movie will be. It's like asking why a black slave movie is so dark. Look at the world we live in. It's just as dark minus having a cape crusader. Ol girl on this channel gives off a bit of a bad vibe too. The amount of dislikes show a bit too.
@@GiantMike86 I wasn't complaining? I literally said I liked this trailer a lot and I'm stoked that a Batman trailer could surprise me. Did you watch the video?
The movie looks super incredible, but I'm a little disappointed that tonally, it seems so similar to the Chris Nolan Batman movies, I wish we got to see something a little different. Warner bros seems to be swinging so far that way in tone to differentiate from Marvel. Also shoutout to whatever barista had to make that question mark latte. (unrelated but clarus i love that sweater)
Batman in Year One didn't give a fuck about surviving, he was constantly running towards the trouble and not being strategic about it. He grows to be more skillful.
@@dignerds All I care about is character growth lol. What I don't care about is Batman being an unstoppable violent machine. Give me a Bruce Wayne who's figuring it out, not a suit that makes him invulnerable to point blank machine gun fire in year two.
@@NerdyNightly So you want mid season Batman. Matt Reeves has said this is closer to year One story line , but gods forbid they try something different . You seem like the type to play an edgy, dark ass-hat who gets his party into a tpk . BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT MY CHARACTER WOULD DO .
@@NerdyNightly this movie is going to be Bruce Wayne trying to figure it out 🤦🏾♂️ batman in his first couple of year's was really beating the hell out of criminals, he was still angry but he is not completely invisible did u see the scars all on his back in the trailer he is definitely paying the price walking through those bullet's. He is trying to put fear in the heart's of the criminals oh also is common for batman to have a bulletproof suit.
"Why so serious?" This is between Year 1 and 2 of Bruce being The Batman. He's done everything to get over the death of his parents *except* try to heal mentally/emotionally. He's taking that anger and pain out on the criminals, without regard for his own safety. I suspect - as more movies are made, if this is a success - that in later movies we'll see his growth, were he doesn't always go in to cave in the heads of criminals. Growth where he learns not to take such a physical beating. Growth as a detective.
The goal is that it is Bruce Wayne’s first two years as Batman. He is still dealing with the trauma of his parents death. And he is still discovering who he is as Batman and Bruce Wayne. It seems to be a psychological movie about him trying to balance the two, which tears him apart inside. I also think it’s supposed to be R-rated and the Riddler isn’t so much of a comic book physical threat. He’s much more of a mental foe to the Batman
That’s super interesting and I hope that is the majority of this movie. This trailer is very heavy on the Batman is invincible and punches everything side, and this is less interesting to me. I don’t want Batman to be bullet proof, if I did I would watch literally every other super hero movie. Especially this early in his career.
@@NerdyNightly Body armours are quite normal for him to use. In rage or not, he is still smart to protect himself to the point that it doesn't compromise his speed.
@@NerdyNightly and I mean it's a trailer for a superhero movie it's supposed to be punchy punchy. I have been hearing Se7en vibes in the story and if that is true young Batman 90s comic reading me is ready.
I honestly thought we were going to get a quieter movie. The darkness in this only seems out of place to me because of how loud and aggressive it is. Bruce Wayne trained for a decade and a half to come back to Gotham and behave like a blunt instrument?
@@NerdyNightly he's behaving in that aggressive way to criminals, not innocents. And Batman is supposed to be dark and violent so it's perfect but yeah, you got your opinion
Agreed with everyone below. Batman should be dark and gritty. He should be the gritty side of the 'superhero spectrum'. These reviewers missed the mark.
Yet another couple of normies who do cbm reviews cause it's "the trend". Don't try to review these things if you don't know about these characters. You obviously did not get any of the year 01 references or shots. And none of the two of you even bothered to take a look at the cinematography. As you can see from the no of dislikes you have made a mistake. Fix it in the future.
He's supposed to be in Year 2, but he exists within this trailer much like the Terminator does in that franchise. An unstoppable force is a boring main character. Bullet proof Batman is not interesting, even though that hallway shot is absolutely gorgeous to look at. I mean what I said in the video, I liked this trailer but it isn't as good as last years and hints at some movie elements that I'm not sure I will like.
It's because he's only a year 2 Batman, he hasn't become that Dark Knight who knows all the tricks in the shadows. He's full of anger & rage, and hasn't focused it to be the batman he again becomes later. He also is at a stage where the difference of bruce wayne & Batman is blurred still. This is promoted as Noir style Detective Batman film, showing how he becomes the "greatest detective". Anyways that's my 2 cents. Either way looking forward to seeing Reeves take on The Batman.
I’m hoping for the Detective, but in the trailer I’m seeing a lot of blunt instrument. I trust Reeves cause his movies are brilliant, so I’m still stoked for this, just hoping to see another side of Bruce in the movie itself
@@NerdyNightly What he said. Think of it like Casino Royale in how the director of that film stripped James Bond of everything that made him Bond but reconstructed him slowly, and in the end he became that 007 we know and love. That's what we expect from this.
@@acheman8836 this is a great way to look at it for sure, excellent example. Also this Batman is very brutish in that same way, where he's probably more happy to run into danger head on instead of in predator mode putting himself at risk of real danger. Though i am hoping they explain his suit & how it's protecting him from those bullets. I know in the comics Batman originally put the bat symbol on his chest because enemies eyes would be distracted & aim for his chest the strongest part of his armour/Batsuit. Any case, definitely reminds me of the dark graphic novels like the long halloween (but before the rogues really become rogues).
I love the casino royale comparison and would really love if this movie felt like that. I don’t mind him being brutish, but it’s boring if he’s invincible. Bond in CR is in danger in every fight so it is thrilling, but I won’t have that same thrill if Batman can walk down hallways eating bullets like they’re nothing. The stakes matter, and making your hero unstoppable deflated them quickly.
It would really be nice if the people doing these 'reactions' actually did their homework before giving their opinions. Go watch a Disney film. Maybe that'll make you feel better.
"This doesn't feel like a superhero movie." You're right. The vision is that this is a horror movie, and the monster is Batman. That is EXACTLY how criminals see him! And that is exactly why I love this trailer and have high hopes for this movie!
Omg soooo dark...my mom is afraid of the dark...my wife too....omg why scorsese, tarantino, copolla, fincher so called greatest directors make dark movies...omg....I am so afarid....where is the hope?? Look! Avengers assemble....greatest movies of all time....so much light and hope...my mother and wife is delighted...we are gonna give it a oscar....
tarantino's movies are anything but dark. they tend to be colorful dramas with twisted comedy (call it dark humor if you want me to be technically wrong) scorsese badmouthed superhero movies in general as being mindless and lacking artistry. he'd call this trailer ridiculous for a superhero movie trying to be something (he believes) they aren't meant to be and not going the easy route that marvel went for. literally they said they enjoy the trailer, they just presented some gripes with it, which they have always done and... every critic does? no matter how much they like the movies, critics in general always talk about ways they feel a movie could have been improved. why can't these critics be allowed to do so? and how does that reveal some marvel bias?
am sorry to disagree with you on the trailer am really sorry to say that...u guys are not a DC fan u didnt even know anything about Batman..if ur a true fan u'll be freaking out from this trailer first of all after 20 years we see on finaly penguin and the riddler + this is a young batman from the comics befor he he even understood him self as bruce wayne this movie and the trailer is Huge BIG from the comics and this is the first time we see something like that on screen also../ yes its dark because batman should be Dark.. so i advice you go read more and watch some cartoons about Young batman to understand what is this trailer! : )
Lol u both clowns dont know about year one batman wheres hes angry and raw ...and batman has bulletproof vest even in the games lol ..this what happens when u watch too much wakanda
My biggest problem with Black Panther is that his suit is beyond invulnerable, literally the same problem I have here. Stop making these characters have suits that protect them from every damn thing so the fights can actually have some stakes.
@@NerdyNightly nahh ..think for a sec ..its batman . He plans this too ofcourse he needs bulletproof vest ..its there in nolan trilogy, ben affleck batman and also in games ..only thing that can hurt him is psychological in nature , that's why there's riddler ..hes not hurting him , hes hurting people he care about
The movie was meant to come out in October 2021, literally this month. That's why they released the trailer last year. But then COVID spiked and forced them to release it later.
I understand some people only enjoy the sunshine and rainbows of movies instead of a more dark and gritty one, some people want to use movies as an escape from reality, not a reminder of one but the concerns seem to stem from ignorance and weird expectations, watched too many marvel movies perhaps ?
Exactly they are not, they just watched the trailer because everyone else is doing it. It's all about getting clicks and attention you know. But that's the sad reality of social media. And call this story and trailer offputting is beyond insane. Like all Batman stories are basically "offputting". If that means dark and grim because hes dealing with the worst psychos in the world for God sakes.
It looks like they're giving us a similar Batman to what we saw in the Nolan movies, which I think I'll enjoy. I'm excited to see the Riddler because he's probably my favorite Batman villain.
Batman is supposed to be dark. He IS crazy. He is an unhinged, angry young man who’s grieving the death of his parents by brutalizing criminals. The trailer even has him say “I’m vengeance”. He isn’t a superhero yet, just a monster that other monsters fear. He will learn to temper his rage and become the Dark Knight.
Riddler provided the goal. What a dumb reaction And Batman doesn't always swoop out of the shadows ... You guys are used to typical, predictable , studio movies. This movie looks like art. Batman is dark.
The movie has already been described to take place during Halloween night, as a horror thriller and majority of the movie will tackle the detective aspect of the dark knight, Batman keeps a journal and narrates it to the audience, why so serious? Because he’s young and still not getting over his parents death and is full of bloodlust and anger and doesn’t know exactly how he fits in Gotham city. This is EXACTLY how comic book fans wanted Batman to be and it takes inspiration from both the comic books “Batman The Long Halloween” & “Batman Ego”. You should read them to better understand the vision of what Matt Reeves wanted to create.
This film isn't the typical super hero story but Batman has never been your typical super hero. It feels like a modern noir film with Batman being your anti-hero protaganist, Catwoman as your femme fatale, the voice over narration, the gloom, and violence and I am here for it! I love film noir though, not everyone's preference I guess. I like that they don't give away the plot to the film in the trailer also.
I would agree with you, but the completely bullet proof suit detracts from that a little. I'm hopeful the film is more intellectual, but the trailer feels very brute force driven.
@@NerdyNightly You forget how much money Bruce has and not even talking about how technology works in a "Fiction, fantasy world where there's beings that fly and magic exist"
But it’s boring. I want the fights to have stakes, and if Batman is bulletproof then every fight is half as interesting because he’s never in any danger.
What!!?? Clearly, you guys never read the HQs or played the Arkham games. We seem to will FINALLY get something close to REAL Batman and you say is too Dark and off putting!? OK, is your opinion.
Did you not see the 1st trailer from Fandom 2020? (It's filming was delayed because of the pandemic, it was supposed to come out around now). The vibe was established there. Btw it's a young Batman year two he's finding his way.
The first trailer was far more quietly ominous. This was very loud and blunt, and I think that’s the difference. Last years trailer was much closer to the kind of film I’m hoping this ends up being if that makes sense
"That was so dark..." Wow so you finally find out Batman is from DC and forget that one of his names is "The dark knight" DC superheroes are not MARVEL lol. Stop generalizing the genre with bright, colorful, funny and family friendly kinda style. U guys should watch the boys lol
@@NerdyNightly Funny but try to show it to ur kids or to a christian family. They wouldnt think it is funny at all. Go watch ur disney superhero movies. U dont know anything about dc and i dont know why u would think batman is funny in the first place, he never was (unless u watch Hbo max Harley quinn animated series, wich is not for kids either)
I don’t know what your trying to pull with Batman being to dark, like shit, read the damn comics or at the very least watch the animated films. Batman Year 1 and 2 are the best options, it’ll give you a little more insight for this masterful trailer.
Finally The Batman From The Batman The Comic Books Enters The Movies Even Though The Batman Way More Badass In The Batman Comic Book But Compared To Christian Bale It's Way Better And More Close To The Comic Book Ever And Also The Why So Serious Is Because The Batman Is The Serious Character Duh... Yeah Also Very Comedic Diamond Sometimes In The Batman Comic Books Those Are Really Precious Memories And Actually Make Me Happy Cry Though Sadly The People Can't Experience The Greatness And How Much The Badass The Batman Is In The Batman Comic Books But This Trailer Shows Finally The Batman Of The Comic Book Is Gonna Enter In The Movies And Also We Got Close 0.1% Of Characteristics Of Badassness Of The Batman In The Live-Action Movies By This Finally In The Previous Movies It Was Even Less Than The Moment I Heard The Line Of The "It's A Warning" I Was Like "It's The Batman From The Batman Comic Books For Damn Sure" So Much Alike For Damn Sure And I Also Thank You For The Reaction You Are Amazing, Even Though I Know There Are Many People Don't Know The Batman From The Batman Comic Books But This Trailer Is So Much Close To That, Seeing People Knowing And Realising That Is Diamond For Damn Sure!
Batman should be a Rogue but they made him the Barbarian
THIS IS EXACTLY THE POINT

The problem you all have with the trailer is the peak testosterone levels. You can tell by this guy's feminine voice that he wants rainbow Batman.
I heard everything about this trailer, but too serious, dark/grim? This is the *DARK* knight in his early years, full of trauma and anger, is it supposed to be a comedy? This is the most on point atmosphere for a Batman movie i've seen so far! You should stick to colourful, quirky, basic Marvel movies lol
I want more of this batman, completely brutal, love it !
Yep. Gonna see it. 'nough said.
You have seen a Batman movie right?
Your reaction is bc of Marvel latest super hero movies. Funny heros making jokes all the time. But here, batman is traumatized and overcoming it by beating criminals and putting his revenge there. He is young and violent. I hope we'll see hjs growth
I think I get where y'all heads are @... It seems nobody wants to do mid-career Batman in the 21st Century and choose to do the early years or as in the case of Dark Knight Rises & Affleck, late into his career..
But the Danny o'Niel/Neil Adams years; globe trotting; Robin by his side; a colourful Gotham (not literally I mean variety) stuff never makes it to the big screen.
That being said, Im excited as HELL for this one, Riddler's arrest is giving me John Doe vibe to him & this Bruce is less a hero and more a wraith.
Cause he’s not a hero he’s whatever Gotham needs him to be
"Why so serious?" Really? Read some comics or search for the thing you review.
How do you guys not know why this is dark.🤔 Seems like you guys are complaining about how dark this movie will be. It's like asking why a black slave movie is so dark. Look at the world we live in. It's just as dark minus having a cape crusader. Ol girl on this channel gives off a bit of a bad vibe too. The amount of dislikes show a bit too.
siskel and ebert at the movie’s.
go watch disney
I will! And I will watch this because you don’t have to choose.
you don't have to choose so stop complaining if something is different and not always bubblegum pop
@@GiantMike86 I wasn't complaining? I literally said I liked this trailer a lot and I'm stoked that a Batman trailer could surprise me. Did you watch the video?
It's obvious you don't know batman
Err it’s a trailer..you want the whole story & its goal ? No need to watch a movie then 😬
This is the most interesting take on this trailer I've seen so far. Earned a subscriber!
Thank you! Appreciate the sub!
Zoe Saldana lololololol
Yeah that one is my bad. Zoe Kravitz looks literally incredible in this and I had a brain fart
"When that light hits the sky
Like a big pizza pie
It's a warning..." 🎶
Hahahaha that’s hilarious
snowflakes lol
The movie looks super incredible, but I'm a little disappointed that tonally, it seems so similar to the Chris Nolan Batman movies, I wish we got to see something a little different. Warner bros seems to be swinging so far that way in tone to differentiate from Marvel.
Also shoutout to whatever barista had to make that question mark latte.
(unrelated but clarus i love that sweater)
I do think the people screaming we've never seen anything like this are disregarding how much this lifts from Nolans take
@@NerdyNightly give me tired, campy batdad or give me nothing PLEASE
@@ellens6182 No Campy for you!
Batman in Year One didn't give a fuck about surviving, he was constantly running towards the trouble and not being strategic about it. He grows to be more skillful.
Some of these RUclipsrs don't care about character growth...
@@dignerds All I care about is character growth lol. What I don't care about is Batman being an unstoppable violent machine. Give me a Bruce Wayne who's figuring it out, not a suit that makes him invulnerable to point blank machine gun fire in year two.
@@NerdyNightly So you want mid season Batman. Matt Reeves has said this is closer to year One story line , but gods forbid they try something different . You seem like the type to play an edgy, dark ass-hat who gets his party into a tpk . BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT MY CHARACTER WOULD DO .
@@NerdyNightly this movie is going to be Bruce Wayne trying to figure it out 🤦🏾♂️ batman in his first couple of year's was really beating the hell out of criminals, he was still angry but he is not completely invisible did u see the scars all on his back in the trailer he is definitely paying the price walking through those bullet's. He is trying to put fear in the heart's of the criminals oh also is common for batman to have a bulletproof suit.
Well let me ask, what do you want for a Batman movie? Him throwing Lolipops instead of bat-a-rangs? Lol ffs
They don't know...sounds like they want unicorns and rainbows. Lol😅😂
He's a young, unhinged Batman...and it's fucking awesome 🤘
"Why so serious?"
This is between Year 1 and 2 of Bruce being The Batman.
He's done everything to get over the death of his parents *except* try to heal mentally/emotionally.
He's taking that anger and pain out on the criminals, without regard for his own safety.
I suspect - as more movies are made, if this is a success - that in later movies we'll see his growth, were he doesn't always go in to cave in the heads of criminals. Growth where he learns not to take such a physical beating. Growth as a detective.
Absolutely, this comment gets a thumbs up, unfortunately this video gets a thumbs down.
True can't wait to see him evolve into the dark night detective for sure. Well done Robert.
The goal is that it is Bruce Wayne’s first two years as Batman. He is still dealing with the trauma of his parents death. And he is still discovering who he is as Batman and Bruce Wayne. It seems to be a psychological movie about him trying to balance the two, which tears him apart inside. I also think it’s supposed to be R-rated and the Riddler isn’t so much of a comic book physical threat. He’s much more of a mental foe to the Batman
That’s super interesting and I hope that is the majority of this movie. This trailer is very heavy on the Batman is invincible and punches everything side, and this is less interesting to me. I don’t want Batman to be bullet proof, if I did I would watch literally every other super hero movie. Especially this early in his career.
Yeah the riddler is giving serial killer vibes and Batman is the detective hunting him down
@@NerdyNightly Body armours are quite normal for him to use. In rage or not, he is still smart to protect himself to the point that it doesn't compromise his speed.
@@NerdyNightly and I mean it's a trailer for a superhero movie it's supposed to be punchy punchy. I have been hearing Se7en vibes in the story and if that is true young Batman 90s comic reading me is ready.
@@NerdyNightly that's something i can agree on
Of course this version of Batman is dark. I don’t know what you expect, the light hearted campy version? Oh heck no I rather have this one.
I honestly thought we were going to get a quieter movie. The darkness in this only seems out of place to me because of how loud and aggressive it is. Bruce Wayne trained for a decade and a half to come back to Gotham and behave like a blunt instrument?
@@NerdyNightly he's behaving in that aggressive way to criminals, not innocents. And Batman is supposed to be dark and violent so it's perfect but yeah, you got your opinion
It’s so dark… He’s literally the DARK Knight 🤦🏻
Agreed with everyone below. Batman should be dark and gritty. He should be the gritty side of the 'superhero spectrum'. These reviewers missed the mark.
Of course.
They probably would enjoy a Care bears movie. Batman is supposed to be dark. That is why he is called the dark night dummies.
I would absolutely watch a care bears movie.
@@NerdyNightly this response says everything about your reaction. If U guys don't like DC stop reacting to stuff from it tf
Just leaving a dislike, I’ll see myself out.
Thanks for engaging with the video!
They absolutely nailed the tone the Batman films should be going for. Never been so excited for a film before 🥺
“Zoe saldana” ??? That says it all about this reaction 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️ #next
Yet another couple of normies who do cbm reviews cause it's "the trend".
Don't try to review these things if you don't know about these characters. You obviously did not get any of the year 01 references or shots. And none of the two of you even bothered to take a look at the cinematography.
As you can see from the no of dislikes you have made a mistake. Fix it in the future.
This reaction is... 😂 "I'm not sure how Batman is the main character"😂 WHAT ARE YOU ON
He's supposed to be in Year 2, but he exists within this trailer much like the Terminator does in that franchise. An unstoppable force is a boring main character. Bullet proof Batman is not interesting, even though that hallway shot is absolutely gorgeous to look at. I mean what I said in the video, I liked this trailer but it isn't as good as last years and hints at some movie elements that I'm not sure I will like.
@@NerdyNightly its a comic book movie , he have lot of armours like iron man , and u guys finding logic from this is utter bullsht
This is a masterpiece..and bro... lucky guy!!
If you want kid movies go watch marvel
We literally said we like this, we just think it’s too dark for a wider audience…
@@NerdyNightly It worked with Logan movies
@@NerdyNightly stick to marvel fanboi....as martin scorsese said marvel movies are like theme park...not a 'movie'...even copolla said that🤣🤣
This isn't theater, it's an opera. Batman speeding around in a muscle car? Epic!
It's because he's only a year 2 Batman, he hasn't become that Dark Knight who knows all the tricks in the shadows. He's full of anger & rage, and hasn't focused it to be the batman he again becomes later.
He also is at a stage where the difference of bruce wayne & Batman is blurred still.
This is promoted as Noir style Detective Batman film, showing how he becomes the "greatest detective".
Anyways that's my 2 cents. Either way looking forward to seeing Reeves take on The Batman.
I’m hoping for the Detective, but in the trailer I’m seeing a lot of blunt instrument. I trust Reeves cause his movies are brilliant, so I’m still stoked for this, just hoping to see another side of Bruce in the movie itself
@@NerdyNightly What he said. Think of it like Casino Royale in how the director of that film stripped James Bond of everything that made him Bond but reconstructed him slowly, and in the end he became that 007 we know and love. That's what we expect from this.
@@acheman8836 this is a great way to look at it for sure, excellent example. Also this Batman is very brutish in that same way, where he's probably more happy to run into danger head on instead of in predator mode putting himself at risk of real danger.
Though i am hoping they explain his suit & how it's protecting him from those bullets.
I know in the comics Batman originally put the bat symbol on his chest because enemies eyes would be distracted & aim for his chest the strongest part of his armour/Batsuit.
Any case, definitely reminds me of the dark graphic novels like the long halloween (but before the rogues really become rogues).
I love the casino royale comparison and would really love if this movie felt like that. I don’t mind him being brutish, but it’s boring if he’s invincible. Bond in CR is in danger in every fight so it is thrilling, but I won’t have that same thrill if Batman can walk down hallways eating bullets like they’re nothing. The stakes matter, and making your hero unstoppable deflated them quickly.
@@NerdyNightly I honestly don’t see what your point is. This trailer is golden and this is going to be the vest film next year!!
Who said the trailer is in the same order as the movie scene wise? ..you do know that's not how trailers work right 😂
It would really be nice if the people doing these 'reactions' actually did their homework before giving their opinions. Go watch a Disney film. Maybe that'll make you feel better.
I hate the quipy non serious marvel cringe. This looks great.
"This doesn't feel like a superhero movie." You're right. The vision is that this is a horror movie, and the monster is Batman. That is EXACTLY how criminals see him! And that is exactly why I love this trailer and have high hopes for this movie!
Omg soooo dark...my mom is afraid of the dark...my wife too....omg why scorsese, tarantino, copolla, fincher so called greatest directors make dark movies...omg....I am so afarid....where is the hope??
Look! Avengers assemble....greatest movies of all time....so much light and hope...my mother and wife is delighted...we are gonna give it a oscar....
tarantino's movies are anything but dark. they tend to be colorful dramas with twisted comedy (call it dark humor if you want me to be technically wrong)
scorsese badmouthed superhero movies in general as being mindless and lacking artistry. he'd call this trailer ridiculous for a superhero movie trying to be something (he believes) they aren't meant to be and not going the easy route that marvel went for.
literally they said they enjoy the trailer, they just presented some gripes with it, which they have always done and... every critic does? no matter how much they like the movies, critics in general always talk about ways they feel a movie could have been improved. why can't these critics be allowed to do so? and how does that reveal some marvel bias?
Well a trailer isn't supposed to give away the plot otherwise there's no reason to watch the movie.
Year two: there's something going with Bruce that he cannot control. This will be one of the darkest and greatest Batman ever.
They clearly r marvel fanboy guys 😂
Serious/angry batman is the best batman
Absolutely agree with you
This is giving me long Halloween vibes! And I love it!! I’m ready for the movie!!!
Beyond ready! March is too far away...
@@NerdyNightly oh yea too far! And let’s not even mention GOTHAM KNIGHTS AND SUICIDE SQUAD
"Fear is a tool
When that light hits the sky
Its not a call its a warning"🔥
am sorry to disagree with you on the trailer am really sorry to say that...u guys are not a DC fan u didnt even know anything about Batman..if ur a true fan u'll be freaking out from this trailer first of all after 20 years we see on finaly penguin and the riddler + this is a young batman from the comics befor he he even understood him self as bruce wayne this movie and the trailer is Huge BIG from the comics and this is the first time we see something like that on screen also../ yes its dark because batman should be Dark.. so i advice you go read more and watch some cartoons about Young batman to understand what is this trailer! : )
Lol u both clowns dont know about year one batman wheres hes angry and raw ...and batman has bulletproof vest even in the games lol ..this what happens when u watch too much wakanda
My biggest problem with Black Panther is that his suit is beyond invulnerable, literally the same problem I have here. Stop making these characters have suits that protect them from every damn thing so the fights can actually have some stakes.
@@NerdyNightly nahh ..think for a sec ..its batman . He plans this too
ofcourse he needs bulletproof vest ..its there in nolan trilogy, ben affleck batman and also in games ..only thing that can hurt him is psychological in nature , that's why there's riddler ..hes not hurting him , hes hurting people he care about
@@NerdyNightly I also want the stakes to be high but it makes sense that his suit is bulletproof because he is a billionaire
Riddler obviously want to be arrested on purpose..to meet Batman
The movie was meant to come out in October 2021, literally this month. That's why they released the trailer last year. But then COVID spiked and forced them to release it later.
Dark and gritty for sure . off putting ? No don't think so . I love the vibes from this version Pattinson will do this justice. 🌇🎥
Jeez, not only do you not know what Batman is about, but while trying to be smart, you don't even know whos in it.
The first part i disagree with you, but you've got me on the second. Brainfart on my part
I understand some people only enjoy the sunshine and rainbows of movies instead of a more dark and gritty one, some people want to use movies as an escape from reality, not a reminder of one but the concerns seem to stem from ignorance and weird expectations, watched too many marvel movies perhaps ?
Batman is the darkest hero of all. And that’s why it’s so dark.
Oh boy. You have so many wonderful comics to be introduced to if you believe that.
Batman isn't supposed to look like a superhero bc he isn't one he is a vigilante and this is EXACTLY what he is supposed to look like.
Batman shouldn’t be so bullet proof that he just eats machine gun fire. He might as well be Superman the way that shit was bouncing off of him
@@NerdyNightly that's true tho I mean a couple of bullets was fine but he ate a whole ass machine gun lol😆 but it looks so dope🔥🔥
So dope. I just hope there’s a deeper layer to this. I loved the first trailer so much, and I hope the movie feels more like that one.
@@NerdyNightly Bruh. He used to survive a hit from Doomdays, dogde omega beam from Darkseid so this is normal...
@@vulamnguyen9453 yeah 😂 lol
Batman is supposed to be dark man, your talking about dark!!!!!!!knight!!!!!!!come on man, not every batman is going to be the same🤦♂️
This is cinema.
This is RUclips
@@NerdyNightly This is Sparta!
its year one batman he is dark, this is so awesome i cant wait to see this film!!!!!!
I can’t either. March is too far away
It doesn't seem like you guys are familiar with Batman at all.
Exactly they are not, they just watched the trailer because everyone else is doing it.
It's all about getting clicks and attention you know. But that's the sad reality of social media.
And call this story and trailer offputting is beyond insane. Like all Batman stories are basically "offputting".
If that means dark and grim because hes dealing with the worst psychos in the world for God sakes.
@@KingOfCoolness That's true.
Actually when the last Batman trailer came out, their plan was to release it in October 2021, then the pans changed because of covid.
That makes sense. March is too far away….
It looks like they're giving us a similar Batman to what we saw in the Nolan movies, which I think I'll enjoy. I'm excited to see the Riddler because he's probably my favorite Batman villain.
The trailer was off putting - you guys are crazy 😂😂
Always someone who will hate . Hence the dislikes lol. No hope lol
Batman is supposed to be dark. He IS crazy. He is an unhinged, angry young man who’s grieving the death of his parents by brutalizing criminals. The trailer even has him say “I’m vengeance”. He isn’t a superhero yet, just a monster that other monsters fear. He will learn to temper his rage and become the Dark Knight.
Riddler provided the goal.
What a dumb reaction
And Batman doesn't always swoop out of the shadows ...
You guys are used to typical, predictable , studio movies.
This movie looks like art.
Batman is dark.
The movie has already been described to take place during Halloween night, as a horror thriller and majority of the movie will tackle the detective aspect of the dark knight, Batman keeps a journal and narrates it to the audience, why so serious? Because he’s young and still not getting over his parents death and is full of bloodlust and anger and doesn’t know exactly how he fits in Gotham city. This is EXACTLY how comic book fans wanted Batman to be and it takes inspiration from both the comic books “Batman The Long Halloween” & “Batman Ego”. You should read them to better understand the vision of what Matt Reeves wanted to create.
This film isn't the typical super hero story but Batman has never been your typical super hero. It feels like a modern noir film with Batman being your anti-hero protaganist, Catwoman as your femme fatale, the voice over narration, the gloom, and violence and I am here for it! I love film noir though, not everyone's preference I guess. I like that they don't give away the plot to the film in the trailer also.
I would agree with you, but the completely bullet proof suit detracts from that a little. I'm hopeful the film is more intellectual, but the trailer feels very brute force driven.
@@NerdyNightly You forget how much money Bruce has and not even talking about how technology works in a "Fiction, fantasy world where there's beings that fly and magic exist"
@@LFNZE if what the director said is anything to go by, those don't exist in that world.
@@q2k100 ???? what. Even if those dont exist is still a superhero fictional movie
But it’s boring. I want the fights to have stakes, and if Batman is bulletproof then every fight is half as interesting because he’s never in any danger.
What!!?? Clearly, you guys never read the HQs or played the Arkham games. We seem to will FINALLY get something close to REAL Batman and you say is too Dark and off putting!? OK, is your opinion.
Create your own batman movie.
Some seriously contradicting bad takes here guys
Did you not see the 1st trailer from Fandom 2020? (It's filming was delayed because of the pandemic, it was supposed to come out around now). The vibe was established there. Btw it's a young Batman year two he's finding his way.
The first trailer was far more quietly ominous. This was very loud and blunt, and I think that’s the difference. Last years trailer was much closer to the kind of film I’m hoping this ends up being if that makes sense
This batman does look like a good guy in contrast to the people he was fighting .
Its time for superheroes And comic book movies to grow up.
"That was so dark..."
Wow so you finally find out Batman is from DC and forget that one of his names is "The dark knight"
DC superheroes are not MARVEL lol. Stop generalizing the genre with bright, colorful, funny and family friendly kinda style. U guys should watch the boys lol
The Boys is literally a comedy. I don’t think this comment is as smart as you think it is…
@@NerdyNightly Funny but try to show it to ur kids or to a christian family. They wouldnt think it is funny at all. Go watch ur disney superhero movies. U dont know anything about dc and i dont know why u would think batman is funny in the first place, he never was (unless u watch Hbo max Harley quinn animated series, wich is not for kids either)
dude chill
Batman was never funny? You must be a new fan. Feel free to come edit your comment after you google Batman.
@@NerdyNightly tell me where he has been funny please. Source. Harley Quinn animated series doesn't count lol
Zoe Kravtiz portrays Catwoman, not Zoe Sandana.
You’re right Batman isn’t the main focus but rather the villains are. It’s an origin story for all of Batman’s villains.
Well I'm excited atleast so moving on
First reaction with more downvotes than upvotes 😂 Like everything negative and clueless.
Batman has always been dark but this looks like a patch of midnight that cannot be swept away.
I don’t know what your trying to pull with Batman being to dark, like shit, read the damn comics or at the very least watch the animated films. Batman Year 1 and 2 are the best options, it’ll give you a little more insight for this masterful trailer.
The Batman is not bad you guys are too gay for this movie.
Finally The Batman From The Batman The Comic Books Enters The Movies Even Though The Batman Way More Badass In The Batman Comic Book But Compared To Christian Bale It's Way Better And More Close To The Comic Book Ever And Also The Why So Serious Is Because The Batman Is The Serious Character Duh... Yeah Also Very Comedic Diamond Sometimes In The Batman Comic Books Those Are Really Precious Memories And Actually Make Me Happy Cry Though Sadly The People Can't Experience The Greatness And How Much The Badass The Batman Is In The Batman Comic Books But This Trailer Shows Finally The Batman Of The Comic Book Is Gonna Enter In The Movies And Also We Got Close 0.1% Of Characteristics Of Badassness Of The Batman In The Live-Action Movies By This Finally In The Previous Movies It Was Even Less Than The Moment I Heard The Line Of The "It's A Warning" I Was Like "It's The Batman From The Batman Comic Books For Damn Sure" So Much Alike For Damn Sure And I Also Thank You For The Reaction You Are Amazing, Even Though I Know There Are Many People Don't Know The Batman From The Batman Comic Books But This Trailer Is So Much Close To That, Seeing People Knowing And Realising That Is Diamond For Damn Sure!
Pretty sure she wasn’t excited 😂
"Fear is a tool

At least watch or play arkham games u will know about the concern about bullets
