      There was a lot at play in this movie and its first watch can be a bit disorienting until the big reveal and even then you showed me (someone who has watched this 8 times now) that because bruce ignored the financial aspect of his families legacy Riddler was able to exploit that unknowingly and expose the renewal fund. The Batman perfectly highlights that transition that bruce goes through from an emotional and ragefilled batman who punches with the weight of grief to a matured Batman that is still rough around the edges but has the mindset of classic Batman we know today. Good movie.

    A thing I feel is really important to this Batman, this Bruce, that you didn't mention is how much he cares about children. Once he sees the mayoral candidate's son for the first time, he NEVER takes his eyes off of him, both at their home and at the funeral, he is always making sure that the boy is okay. In my opinion, this Bruce is the only live-action Bruce Wayne who would ACTUALLY adopt a young Dick Grayson after his parents are killed. This is the only live-action Batman who would teach Dick how to control his anger and train him to plan rationally about how to take down the people who took his parents from him. This is the only live-action Bruce Wayne who would be the father that Dick needs at that point in his life.
    And I really hope that we get a sequel that actually goes into Bruce and Dick as father and son.

      I know the Batman Bros are gonna hate me for this but I really didn’t find this movie to be great. We get a sad, brooding Bruce Wayne but we don’t get any information other than “ok he’s sad”. He never delves into why he’s sad and never in the narration does he delve into his inner psyche. What’s worse, this film really just shows Batman to a be mediocre detective, unable to even solve Dad riddles. Finally, this film is so damn contradictory. Objectively Batman fails . He creates the riddler, he follows the riddlers trail, and in the climax, so many people die. And it’s all on Batman. So the realisation that Bruce has that he needs to be a “symbol for hope” is moot when in the end all those people die because of his existence.

    • @someonerandom8552
      @someonerandom8552 Год назад +12

      I think this is why I liked this Batman the best and why I think it’s very comic accurate. (I’m not claiming it’s the most accurate, there are of course many different interpretations even in the comics.)
      He’s human at the end of the day. I think the other movies sometimes forget that. In the Nolan verse Batman goes through a cool training montage and the film portrays his ascent really well. But it’s very much a cliched good vs evil scenario. Which I suppose is fair enough for a superhero film lol
      In Burton’s flick Batman’s angst is subtly hinted at. And that’s fine, it works for their respective movies and I love both. And yes I like watching the Snyderverse version too lol
      But all of them forget that it takes more than a watchful kindhearted Alfred to make Batman truly relatable.
      But this one really examines Batman’s psyche. His angst and what his quest for vengeance actually costs him. He hasn’t learnt how to act like the air headed socialite yet, because he’s likely too sleep deprived to care. He hasn’t learnt how to deal out justice properly yet, because he’s still grieving and angry. But over time he learns that he can’t just solve crimes and bash up the baddies. He needs to be a symbol of hope for the people of Gotham. Someone that they can count on even in the darkness. And this film showed that realisation in a realistic (albeit) gritty manner. That’s just more interesting than watching a heart of gold Boy Scout always doing the right thing because he’s a superhero. Batman is a superhero sure, but this version is someone you feel like giving a sympathetic ear to after his night. Maybe even offering him a drink lol
      Though my favourite on screen Batman will always be from The Arkham games lol
      Pattison (Battison?) is one of my new favourites for sure

      I definitely liked him more than the others, but I still kinda feel like we've yet to see a Batman with a real personality in the live-action films. He's always so stiff, so overly serious. The Batman I fell in love with in the 80s was pretty sassy, pretty sardonic, and had a wicked sense of humor. I remember in the Dark Knight Returns, he and Carrie Kelly has this fantastic back-and-forth banter, with him always threatening to fire her if she didn't follow his orders to the letter, and her just doing whatever she wanted anyway, and saving his bacon. That was great. I've yet to see anything like that in these overly serious post-Nolan films, even this new one. The DC Animated Batman has way more personality than any of the film versions.
      Don't get me wrong, I loved this film, and I thought Pattinson did a fantastic job with the role he was given. I'd just like to see Batman be a little more fun, a little less humorless.

      If the ending is hinting Joker, then unfortunately we may get another Joker.
      However, a better rogue would be Hush. Riddler is there, and Hush is the perfect main villain to manipulate post Riddler Gotham, since Penguin is looking to take over, and Selina or another love interest could be manipulated to mess with Batman. Plus, he fits the tone of this Batman series best.
      If they really want to do Joker, at least make it an origin story Joker, namely the Red Hood pre-Joker and how that gang caused trouble, then the post credit scene is that one member becoming Joker. Again, fits the tone of the environment they set up for this Batman.

      @@Jamfrog35 I think you can't really separate the DCEU from WB management style. It was what it was because they were trying to recreate what Marvel had done. In theory, making a Superman film, adding Batman to the sequel, and then finishing with a two-part Justice League film is actually a great idea. The problem is, you need the right creative people, not just the ones with the most bluster. You need a creative vision, not just the intention of outdoing whatever it was Marvel was doing. And the thing is, even Marvel doesn't seem able to recreate their own success. The MCU worked, I think, because it just kinda grew out of its own individual successes. Everyone trying to recreate it falters at the first hurdle, making a film as simple and likeable as Iron Man. You need to do that a couple of times before you try making the Avengers.

    If there's something wanting about the movie, to me, it's how little Batman or Gordon seemed to think Annika mattered. I get that this was a part of the narrative, that they're so concerned with who was killing the "important" people, they didn't give a second thought to the actual dead girl in the trunk of the policeman's car. Meanwhile, her final act, in calling Selina and recording her own murder, was the key to bringing down Falcone. Then. she was never mentioned again. It didn't just seem like an oversight on Batman's part, it felt like Matt Reeves' oversight. I was waiting for Selina to really confront Batman about it, to rake him over the coals for his callous obliviousness. It just felt like her key purpose in the film was to hammer that point home, but she pulled her punches.

It gives me two characters with actual chemistry and reason for me to care about them. It's so good and god I didn't think I'd see imagery in a Bat film that make me gush more than what I saw in DKR. Falling into the flood waters letting vengeance die and hope be born, a baptism for the symbols that define Batman. And man everything with the flare and after is just peak for me.

      To be fair, the comics throughout the ages have had a few different interpretations of Batman.
      So it kind of depends on which era you’re talking about. Which is where I think the disagreements come from mostly. And that’s fine too.
      That all said, I couldn’t agree with you more. To me this was a love letter to the comics and the comic fans.
      We all have our opinions on what makes a great Batman and what makes a great portrayal of him. For me this was one of the greats. Easily one of my new favourites. I absolutely loved this film! Not only does this delve into Bruce’s trauma and how that ultimately shapes his Batman persona. And indeed how that grows throughout the film. But we also get to see what he sacrifices as Batman from a mental health point of view. The rest of the lives action adaptions usually simply dismiss that as just the toll from the job. But this really shows you how Batman helps the city and even how Batman helps Bruce himself. And the journey he has to take in order to bring it to a more healthy approach. Well as healthy as dressing up like a giant bat to scare and beat up bad guys actually is lol
      Also we finally got a real in depth detective story!!!!

It's not just him but senators alike have been given the position instead of more competent and well educated people that our people did not care to vote for at all, to run the country.

    To me, both Ben Affleck and Rob Patterson's Batman are the most vulnerable, the most angerest, the most depressed, the most lonesome versions on screen we seen..
    How they put fear and anger in criminals with every punch, kick and attack.. How they even put fear in the normal people even their allies with their presence.. How they question their legacy, their journey..
    They both tiptoe on the fine line of Vengeance and Revenge.
    While Ben losing his moral code over twenty years of seeing his allies dead or lost their own ways.. and dealing with super-powered people flying around in the world, destroying buildings, killing millions..
    Rob is figuring himself out, his moral code and seeking his allies as it hasn't got to their journeys yet as super-powered being are not a thing yet as of now.
    A young scared, broken man who longs to make a difference in his Gotham with a older, scarred, broken man who longs to see what difference he made in his Gotham..

He's the batman I wish comic book batman was. In ZSJL we see a batman that is open and honest with his team, going to them as bruce wayne, not as batman. He's showing them who he is and gathering them to save the world to uphold superman's legacy. He believes and respects his team and doesn't belittle them. That is Batman, or at least how batman should be.

    Bane literally says he’s vengeance but why he’s never met Batman at that point.
