Alternate Title: Affleck doesn't stand a chance as Batman.

I've said for sometime Snyder, Affleck, etc..have to be more worried about being overshadowed by Rocksteady then anyone else. I think that's why we've heard so much talk about a dilapidated Gotham in the new film; they want to match the tone of the Arkham games.

HOLY!!!

Wonder why WB doesn't just do a movie like THIS? Get Conroy and Hammil back, heck get all the BTAS cast back for the voices. They'd make more money than the Davy Crockett.

Wow... That looks awesome. If I had games like this when I was growing up, I would have never left the house.

If you didn't play Arkham Origins, it's amazing. Easily the best serious interpretation of Penguin ever made as a British, (and IIRC, Russian), arms dealer.

They're amazingly addictive. I let my nephews keep it at their place because I'd get nothing done if it was in my house.

If I was the guy who runs WB, I honestly would have bailed on straight-up movies after Dark Knight Rises and put the games at center-focus with the movie as an extension of the game story.Same thing with the Gotham TV show.

When the 3D Beowulf came out, I thought that's exactly how Warner's should adapt Kingdom Come. This video game looks so much better than Beowulf that it's ridiculous.

Pixar's and other CGI films routinely chart high at the box office, why couldn't an action/super hero film do the same if it was of similar story quality.

It was truly odd during the Academy Awards that it's animated hero montage did not contain a super hero, while the live action version was full of them.

I guess the idea is just too obvious.

^Yeah, these games have finally crossed that "creepy barrier" that movies like Beowulf couldn't quite pass yet. It's time for someone to try one out.
