Official Anti Batman thread

[DocDrako]

At my job I'm hearing alot of "This is the best Batman movie ever made! The old Batman movies suck! They are horrible!" Funny thing is, back when the old Batman movies were new, the same people were saying "This is the best Batman movie ever made!"

I haven't seen the new film yet, but I hear about Batman every day. I never tire of Batman though.

Joker should have had some type of back story instead of simply making him a mystery. His origin from the comics would have fit perfectly into the movie.

I just want to chime in here that in the movie as in the comics, Joker gives varying accounts of his origin. The justly famous graphic novel The Killing Joke represents one very convincing, very real-seeming backstory for Mr. J. But the truth is that according to DC canon, that is only one of many possible origin stories, conveyed at different times to different people, just as we see in the movie.

Now back to the Bat-bashing.

Mike obviously does NOT have any Anti-Bat Batman repellant spray on his utility belt!

Anyone else sick of Batman ?

You should be shot on the spot

As far as the new movie goes I thought it was good but I was far from being blown away by it. Batman's voice was a little on the annoying side when he was in costume. Also, it would be great to see them put the yellow oval and bat symbol back on this his chest. Joker should have had some type of back story instead of simply making him a mystery. His origin from the comics would have fit perfectly into the movie.

The Dark Knight (2008)

THEY ARE NOT CHANGING A BLOODY THING, LOL!!!

Hey... someone else around here said that recently.

[Vortigern99]

Does anyone else find it ironic that this has become yet another Batman thread? People talking about what they like and dislike about the character, the movies, the comics, etc. etc. etc.

Thanks, kirk, for creating a fifth thread for Bat discussion!

I love Bats, but I agree with Hugh. I always hate when he one ups Superman. The writers act as if Supes is a musclebound idiot.

It seems poor Clark's fate when he goes up against "super human of
the planet"

I get WHY it makes sense for dramatic/character reasons---fine---
----but it'd be a neat twist to see Supes take down Batman for once.

If they ever would have made the BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN movie,
it would have HAD to have that kind of scene in it---
or it would have been incomplete.

But, how often do you see Doctor Who threads in General Buzz ?

Why are there a million Batman threads in General Buzz ?

Shouldn't these threads be in the Superhero section ?

Batman doesn't suck, but he's really been over-played .......

He's not THAT entertaining

[Earth 2 Chris]

You know Mike, I don't care for Dr. Who and don't get the fascination with it, yet there's a new Who thread in the Sci Fi forum at least once a day. I just ignore them since the show does nothing for me.

I'm a diehard Batman fan, so I'm not going to be sick of hearing about him. But really, the Mego Museum is a very logical place to discuss Batman, since I'd wager Mego made more money off of Batman and his world than any other character they licensed.

Not to get too philosophical, but Dark Knight is an intense, thought-provoking movie, so discussion is bound to be heavy.

Why would Batman wear a rubber suit ?

Wouldn't he get a rash really fast after doing all his fighting ?

If I wore that suit for more than 5 minutes, i'd be scratching my nuts constantly.

Built up sweat and nuts don't go together ........

If he's so smart, why hasn't he figured this out yet ?

LMAO Mike, you are TOOOOOO Funny. . . can I nominate this for Quote of the YEAR. . . No?. . .Thread of the Month. . . . NO? . . . .thought of the Day?

[HardyGirl]

Personally, I don't care for any other incarnations of Batman beyond Adam West and Olan Soule. The only other version I've seen was the Keaton movie and I didn't like it. The hype doesn't bug me b/c I have no intention of seeing this movie, and it's no different than any other big budget blockbuster w/ hype attached. Big deal, it'll pass.
