The Inspirations Behind The Batman

Step aside Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, and Ben Affleck; there is a new caped crusader inciting fear into the hearts of the criminals in Gotham and that man is Robert Pattinson. With the movie recently releasing in theatres, we were shocked at just how different this interpretation of the character was from all of the previous Batmen listed above....

What The Batman Sequel Could Look Like

Welp, the Caped Crusader has finally arrived back on our screens courtesy of Matt Reeves’ noir-influenced take on the Dark Knight, and boy howdy we are PUMPED for whatever comes next in this dark new continuity. So! Let’s take a look at what that future might have in store for us. Amongst these, we’ll take a moment to point out the confirmed future prospects for this continuity. All of this COULD still change, but — there are shows currently being worked on post-Batman. Considering it’s a big success critically and financially, seems like those are pretty much good to go. One is the Penguin spinoff starring and produced by Colin Farrell who I guess… just really likes sweating his butt off under prosthetics. Seeing as The Batman ends with the city flooding and a massive power vacuum in the wake of both that and the death of Carmine Falcone, it looks like the stage is set for Penguin’s rise to power in, I dunno, like an eight episode prestige HBO Max series. I’m into it. That interrogation scene with Os, Gordon, and Batman was borderline perfection — and a lot of that is down to Farrell’s performance. And the Penguin’s high school Spanish teacher or whatever. The other series is a Gotham PD spinoff.... Read More إقرأ المزيد | Share it now!

The Batman: 25 Things You Missed

Batman fans have wanted a gritty, dark, gothic version (not to mention a detective thriller storyline) of the beloved caped crusader for some time now and Matt Reeves has finally delivered with his brilliant, moody yet beautiful (and of course rainy) The Batman movie. The movie uses some of the devices that made Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy so successful, but also implements it’s own things to become a winged beast of its own and it has the potential to be a trilogy as good (if not better) as Nolan’s work. What makes The Batman so good is that despite it being a very different Batman from what we’ve seen in live action before, it also pays homage to the comic books and in particular some of the most well known Batman graphic novels of all time. It also pays tribute to it’s on screen routes, with some actually surprising call backs to other times Bruce Wayne has been on screen.... Read More إقرأ المزيد | Share it now!

The Batman: Behind The Scenes Secrets

Gotham City’s Dark Knight is back at his crime fighting ways. Of all the superheroes to make the leap and bound to the big screen, the Caped Crusader has at the most at bats…get it? At bat, bats…ah, you get it. Robert Pattinson is the seventh person in the tenth movie for ‘world’s greatest detective’. That’s a lot of pressure to come up with something unique to do with the character. You can only go so dark before it’s just an audio play in a pitchblack movie theater. First step, let’s skip the depiction of Thomas and Martha Wayne getting shot in Crime Alley. I think we’re all familiar with how Bruce Wayne went from rich kid to vigilante. After Ben Afleck stepped away from the cowl, director Matt Reeves was brought in and wanted something so separate that it wouldn’t even fit in the burgeoning DC Comics shared universe. While we don’t get another slow motion shot of dropping pearls Reeves still set his story early in that vigilante career where he’s not yet an expert at being the Dark Knight or Bruce Wayne. From ‘70s film noir influences to many repeated takes to get just the right expression from an actor there’s a lot that went into making this version of The Batman turns up the gritty and dark once again.
