The Batman (Matt Reeves)

[Trig]

You say near perfect, but I think the death of Heath Ledger and the change in fight team kinda ruined the 3rd installment..

Run time confirmed to be 2 hours 55 minutes!

The studio must have great faith in the movie to release it at that length.

3 hours of emo dark Batman, no thanks!

That film was just amazing. I don't think any Joker will beat Heath Ledger

I only realised recently that the bloke directing this is the same person who directed the last 2 of the recent Planet of the Apes trilogy, which I absolutely loved, so I'm quite a bit more hyped for this now. Got my tickets for Saturday

Booked for this Saturday. Can't wait. Seen this headline from ign which is hopeful. Avoiding all spoilers until then.

Matt Reeves’ violent, thrilling, darkly beautiful take on The Batman more than justifies its place in the franchise’s canon. 10/10.

That's the vibe I get from it as well, floppy haired batman angry at the world.

Jesus I'm going to see this tomorrow but 3 hours?

My ass is scared.

Yet another batman film? I enjoyed Nolan's films, but all the others have been poor. Actually the Tim Burton ones were ok. I don't have high hopes for this though.

 

[Trig]

Given the only other stuff i have seen RP in was the Twilight stuff, I originally wasn't holding much hope for this as I was very much a fan of the Nolan films, however, I did like Batfleck, who sucked serious balls as Daredevil, so I'm open to the possibility that RP has grown as an actor (which apparently he really has) and that the direction and script will really show a good representation of the Batman..

I'll give it a chance and will go in with no expectations.

So reviews out are either 'gritty masterpiece ' or 'self absorbingly average'.
I guess somewhere in between lies the truth.

Don't mind the length, if it's got the content to fill it adequately, just hope not long for sake of it.

Pattinson has very much shrug off the twilight stigma over the last decade and proved himself a varied and competent actor across quite a few movies.

Good Time would be a good starting point to see his change and growth.

yeah, a couple of the YouTube reviews I follow said it's too long and pretty dull. Kinda glad that I'm not looking forward to it. Might give it a watch when it's on HBO in a month or 2

I actually think Pattinson is a good actor these days. But I really can't see him as batman.

 

[VincentHanna]

I do hope this is good.

But if it's anything like the planet of the apes remakes, which were well received critically, but I personally found a bit....forgettable.

I wouldn't be itching to watch that trilogy again, put it that way.
