Watching it in theaters was an experience in itself. The sound of the batmobile had the whole building seem to shake, making it feel like a monster was being set loose, It was awesome
I was lucky enough to attend the Pittsburgh advance screening and you should have heard the gasp from the audience when the Batmobile fired up. Audible and palpable.
It really is refreshing that someone's giving this movie credit. It really did feel like a batman comic honestly. Keep it up mate your content is great!
Yeah, I agree. It's way closer to a comic book world than any of the other movies. Even the Burton ones, which feel more like cartoons. This one felt more like world-building than background painting.
@@rajimus It kinda sounds like you're looking for things to complain about. I mean, if that's your idea of a good time, enjoy. But don't expect everyone to join in.
It was refreshing to finally see the black eye makeup included for once. I actually really liked this film and hold it to be one of the best Batman movies.
I love the way this movie feels planted in reality, no super powers, no death ray, no other worldly threats, just broken people who were pushed over the edge
The Batman coming out during the prime of cringe-worthy MCU phase 4 was exactly what we needed. The sounds, Pattinson’s movements and eyes, the cinematography, entire cast nailed it, Batman is actually a detective finding his way in year 2 and learning. Growth and progression as a character. I loved this film.
It also served as a counterargument to the house style used at Marvel. I get the utility of the house style, but it gave the MCU a limited shelf-life. If all the movies are more or less the same contiguous movie story, eventually, that story has to end, if for no other reason than its style has grown stale and predictable, a prison that suffocates fresh ideas. And boy, has it ever!
I thought it was just as cringe. I turned it off after an hour and 45 mins. I gave it a solid chance. It's an awful movie. I can see why the Penguin got a spin off as Collin Ferrel was very good in an otherwise bad movie written for stoopid people. Sorry not sorry. In one scene, Selina simply states to Batman that all the people with power at the top are "white and privileged".
Also I love how the bat mobile, like Christine started up with no driver and seemed to act on its own adding to the lore of Batman. He not only comes out of the darkness ruins a bunch of people's days and fades back into the darkness but his car can also. 😂 The red glow on the front of the car seriously reminded me of the furnace in Home Alone when Kevin would go into the basement it would "come alive". All it was missing was the opening and closing grill like a mouth. But that would have been more from the world of Batman and Robin. Haha
I can't remember if there were any kids in the Dark Knight Rises, but there were some cute moments with kids in both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. I feel like Batman should never get too far away from being a thrilling spectacle for children. Something important is lost without that.
I think Mad Hatter would work great in this universe as a drug dealer who uses a drug of his own design by getting people addicted to them, and uses their desperation to control them. Instead of hypnotizing them he just preys upon the addicted to get what he wants. Clayface could work as a whodunnit because their have been several clayface’s in the comics and having them all be suspects and the one true clayface would be Cassius Payne who was born deformed and uses makeup and prosthetics to disguise himself.
@@davidrichey5319 Mad Hatter would and should be in the next film not as a major player but maybe just a high ranking dealer at the start of the film who gets taken down by Batman, adding to the world building. He could be dealing of Drops and other narcotics. He could look like a junky and insane or Mad. Maybe have White Rabbit playing in the background a song using Wonderland as a metaphor for drugs and hallucinations. Matt Reeves has teased Mad Hatter by making people think Barry would play him. But also it’s unlikely he’s unaware of social media wanting to see Mad Hatter. Clayface be a master of disguise is completely plausible because well Colin looks like a completely different person.

I think we need a deep dive into Alfred’s mentality and mental state of being. Who raises a young rich kid to be a vigilante?! Something off about that man.
It seemed like Alfred couldn't figure out how to guide Bruce out of the terror and shame he was trapped in, so he taught him self-defense as a way to break him out of his helplessness. But ultimately, giving him that sense of agency just fueled his revenge fantasies. That seems pretty straightforward from what we learned in the film. (And here I'm strictly talking about the movie as a self-contained story, rather than trying to attach it to the entire 85 year Batman history)
he literally didn't see Bruce again until he came back as an adult fully trained and wanted to take his own path. Alfred didn't raise him. Please learn basic batman or shut up 😂
17:00 IMHO that’s a well executed homage without straying _too_ close. Love Giacchino’s work in this movie. Everything came together with this film. Everyone excelled.
You remember that being put on shirts years ago? Around the time they were making "gangster" SpongeBob and Looney Tunes shirts lol. It'd have the regular Warner Bros. logo but instead it'd say something like "if you see the cops, Warn-A-Brotha" or something like that lol Good times ...
Great Breakdown! Regarding whether the Riddler knows whether Bruce is Batman, I think he does. There is a subtle clue, and I don't think it is a mistake by the filmmakers. The letters which the Riddler leaves for Batman are addressed with the following phrases: 1st letter/Mayor's letter: To the Batman 2nd letter/Commissioner's letter: To the Batman 3rd letter/DA's letter: To the Batman 4th letter/Bruce's letter: For the Batman 5th letter/Falcone's letter: To the Batman The 4th is letter is For the Batman and not To the Batman as The Riddler wanted Alfred to die (and not Bruce), who was probably the only obstacle between The Riddler and Batman becoming allies.
I always forget how much Matt Reeves looks like Gordon. Just watched They Live for the first time, and I was surprised to learn there isn't a breakdown on here
I picture a scenario where at the end of the third film. After Hugo Stranges death, Joker orchestrated Batman to make a choice: Let the fear toxin spread all inside Arkham, suffocating and killing all the inmates including the ones who were kidnapped there like Catwoman or open all entrances and exits to release the toxin and all inmates to survive.
Of the joker infected 5 people. Batman got all 4 but ine is left and only one of thes people can be the joker infected person. It turns out it's Batman and he slowly becomes the joker all whole going after Hugo Strange and the Scarecrow. Who injects Batman with fear toxin many many times till the Joker takes over and then the Jokers fear takes over and Batman gians control . Unfortunately everyone finds out his identity and he has to blow up the mansion and the batcave only to become a nightmare Batman

Paul, my brother from another mother, father, country, continent, social class... This is another beautiful breakdown fo show. Good stuff. Great stuff actually, as always.
I'm very happy to see that people consider the first Batman movie a classic the writing was perfect and the beginner Batman spin was very original and refreshing , his arc throughout the movie was so compelling the mystery case was intriguing the villain was thought-provoking , grounded and cool and his love interest was not forced and finally the ending was perfect screenplay wise and on the character development was spot on and my favorite thing was the world building introducing interesting characters and making their stories collide organically the cherry on top was gorgeous cinematography Edit : I hope they keep the joker as a side villain so they can let other villains from the rogue gallery shine
I'll have to watch it again, because like Longlegs, I found it a bit "meh" my first viewing. Both this movie and Longlegs I find a bit overrated. I am willing to watch them both again though now that I know what I'm getting into.
Wtf you on about. It was awful. 😂 story lame. Detective work none existent. Emo Bruce Wayne was a joke every scene too dark too see and it was about an hour too long. Honestly people like you are just a joke. Do better. 😂
About Greig Fraser's cinematography in this, Roger Deakins said it was the best cinematography of the year & chastised the Academy for "snobbery" by not even nominating it. I loved the cinematography. It was so mesmerizing to watch: the characters moving in & out of focus, the camera following them from behind, the blurred edges around some shots, the cameras locked onto cars & motorcycles, etc.
Probably late with this but I'd imagine the reason Riddler didn't try to get Bruce in person and used a letter bomb is simply because Bruce is so reclusive that Riddler knew of no way to get to him directly.
The arching seam across the forehead, stitched on ears, and the square panel on the nose of the cowl makes it look like the gritty version of the one Adam West wore too.
I had this theory that the Penguin is the way he is because he was beaten and tortured by corrupt cops to get him to give up Falcone. But because he grew up with a gangster code, never talk to cops, never rat out your people, etc, he kept his mouth shut and took it, even when they cut the achilles tendon on his foot. That's why he walks with a limp. So when Falcone turns out to have colluded with the cops to destroy a fellow gangster, this not only violated the code, but felt like a personal betrayal of the loyalty that cost him so much, that left him half-crippled and looked down on by his fellow gangsters. That's why he was so disgusted with Falcone. It's a theory that required a few leaps, so it doesn't really hold up as potential canon. And Reeves himself suggested that Penguin had grown up being ridiculed, so obviously, he had something else in mind. Still, I like the idea, because it explains Penguin's outrage when he learns Falcone's secret. My biggest complaint about the film itself is that there are too many vague, unconnected details like this. It could have used one more pass to link things up a bit more. But in the world of screenplays, each new draft can break as many links as it shores up, because everyone wants to put their own stamp on it, rather than massage and perfect what's already there.
The characterization of the Riddler being a homeless orphan and having a chip on his shoulder because of it over Bruce Wayne is ridiculous. Of all the characters you could have done that backstory for you did it for Riddler, who just thinks he's smarter than everybody and completely different than that. I kind of look at it like Joaquin Phoenix as the joker who would not rant like that at the end of the movie towards Robert dildo. He just took it way too personal and by then if you're turning into the joker, you wouldn't do that.
Batman's persona is dropped almost entirely around Selina, it show's he's ready to let his guard down and let someone in by the time they get really close. Doesn't really happen with anyone else in the film, not even with Alfred until he almost loses him.
Well done breakdown. I remember walking out the movie in complete shock at how good it was. Given the cast and the director I shouldn’t have been but, man it really hit it out of the park.
The chance of seeing Deathstroke again in Brave in the Bold is incredibly high. We're getting Damian Wayne as the main robin, the bat-family, it'll be more fantastical. Some aspects of Affleck's script with aspects of the animated film Son of Batman, and there you have it.
I have not been a huge dc fan ever but i read a lot of 90s batman comics when i was young now im 20 and i remember the moment when i saw this in In the theaters was so good when they showed the batmobile starting i got chills fr
I FUKN LOVED how it was dark and broody compared to the damn sunshines and rainbows from Marvel. Even had our superheroes being shown in a different light, more toned and realistic.
Btw Batfleck did not actually get in shape, his muscles are Cgi. Reports said he was drinking heavily at the time & was apologetic about his body on set.

I had this theory that the Penguin is the way he is because he was beaten and tortured by corrupt cops to get him to give up Falcone. But because he grew up with a gangster code, never talk to cops, never rat out your people, etc, he kept his mouth shut and took it, even when they cut the achilles tendon on his foot.
