Do we really need another Batman already? Didn't they just announce a Batwoman show too? 99% of this comic book stuff is lazy and unispired, enough already.

Or just don’t watch it if you don’t want to. That’s what I do.

Strikes me as a good Bruce Wayne, but Batman..........I dunno for now.

I'm done with superhero movies, but Pattinson is an excellent actor. One of the best pivots in Hollywood in a long time after the Twilight franchise, which no one would have come away from unscathed.

 

[ArchAngel55]

What next Adam Sandler as the Joker?

 

[Power Man]

Should have been Hoult

 

[Neutrinos]

I don't care how old he is, Josh Brolin would've been perfect in the role!

 

[Blitzkrug]

DC needs to **** off already.

 

[Ainec]

he's better than Affleck

as a director

as a actor he's pretty limited, Pattison despite reputation isn't

I'm done with superhero movies, ... .

I'm done with the MCU (and any GoT spinoffs). I think the future of good comic stuff is DC films and some good TV platforms such as Amazon, Disney, and HBO.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

whoa

 

[Pilky01]

Makes sense considering they probably wanted to go younger and have a leading man for upwards of a decade. I'll give it a chance.

At a first shallow glance hilarious and embarrassing that 'Edward' from Twilight is going to be Batman, but you can't really hold that against the actor and there's plenty that had similar starts but became 'cool' later: Leonardo DiCaprio, Heath Ledger, etc etc. So forget about Twilight and we'll see what the guy can do as Batman. End result will probably be better this way.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Lol.

I don’t watch DCEU movies, I’ve only heard bad or average things about them. I tried watching WW but it was extremely boring for me. Ares was funny too.

The Dark Knight trilogy and Heath killed the future of Batman films and the Joker character in my opinion. Now I think most fans should just go in with low expectations.

Not DCEU, but I’m really excited to see Joaquin’s Joker. DC needs to focus on standalone, mature rated films. Especially for Batman. Gotham should be at the very least 14A

That said, hopefully he pulls off Bats. I won’t judge until I see his performance. Lots of people despised Heath landing the role of Joker.

(Not saying he’ll come close to that performance)

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

It's an interesting choice and I'm sure he'll do well.

As far as the outrage, I doubt that the casting of Batman is going to be what makes or breaks the movie.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Batman is in such a sad state now

 

[DaBadGuy316]

At first i was like WTF but now im like wtf.

Di Caprio made a career out of having one face. If it was comedy, I wouldn't mind. Never a big fan.

Yeah, the casting of the title character in a movie is not important.
