The new Batman movie has always given me the same vibe as Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in that the dark tone and art direction makes it feel like you're watching a rated R movie even though you're really not.
I couldnt even finish the new Batman. Turned it off about 65% of the way through. Only Batman film that's happened with for me.
I can understand this perspective. My friends compared it to Blade Runner 2049 and Dune in terms of slow pacing. They also couldn't finish those movies.Reeves Batman was so boring , I didn’t even finish watching it.
Jeremy irons was way better as Alfred.While Michael Cain's screen time was more as Alfred, it was also impactful. Best Alfred by miles
Jeremy irons was way better as Alfred.
I still prefer Affleck s batman where he's old, given up and doesn't give a fuck. He's there to clean up .
Burton > All others.
Reeves felt under-engineered/flat, and Nolan’s was over-engineered/boring. The writing in both is atrocious IMO.
Never read the comics, grew up on the old tv show.Are you a fan of the characater in general? Because I can't see how anyone who's a big fan of Batman could say this.
And that's not a criticism of you, by the way. Perfectly okay to not be a big fan of Batman!
Be that as it may, Burton films are still how I think of Batman
I tried to watch it this weekend because of this thread. Pattison narrating everything already bored me out a bit, but him snapping at Alfred was too much. Maybe I´ll give it another try one day, but till then it will remain unwatched.Pattison did a good job as Batman but a terrible Bruce Wayne. Sure he is damaged and etc., but he acted like a teenager most of the time, instead of a grown man.
If you mean his perspective on Nolan Batman I kind of agree. I wouldn’t say the writing is atrocious(Dark Knight’s writing was pretty good) but that trilogy is lacking…something. Nolan Batman decided to go for a way more grounded perspective but by doing so it completely lost the noir detective feel of the 90s cartoon, and it lost the fantastical nature of the Burton films and the 90s cartoon as well.Are you a fan of the character in general? Because I can't see how anyone who's a big fan of Batman could say this.
