BlackManta:


4 DC films in a year, it was too good to be true. I just knew it.

Quality over Quantity anytime any day.

If Black Adam and Superpets is good, I'll take it.

That Super Bowl trailer looks like scam now

I think this is just a business decision....a smart one

Y'all know The Flash and Aquaman had strong competition with Black Panther and Avatar 2 respectively...

No way Aquaman was gonna get anywhere near $800m to $1b with Avatar in the way....after the success of the first movie WB no fit play risky games with the sequel so I understand the move..... December to March is not too far if we're being honest...

Black Adam has been shifted to October, I expected The flash to be the one to be moved, but this still works.

They moved Flash and Aquaman to next year

The Batman 9/10

This is the best Batman movie that is about Batman if know what I mean.

Robert Pattinson was very good in the role. Zoe Kravitz is a natural with the way she played Catwoman.
The Riddler is a 10/10 villain, Paul Dano is a scene stealer in this movie.
The biggest surprise was Colin Ferrell as Penguin. Especially when you consider the fact that Jonah Hill was Matt Reeves first choice to play Penguin. But after what Colin Ferrell did, everyone could say that he's perfect for this role.
I'm well and truly hyped for his spinoff show. It's going to drop next year, I hope.
Jeffery Wright as Jim Gordon is a match made in heaven.

The entire cast did well including John Turtoro and Andy Serkis.

The cinematography in this movie is next level. It is as mesmerizing as it is grandiose. Every shot in this movie is an excellent work of art.

The runtime was absolutely worth it. The movie is packed with story and the pacing was good. At first I thought it was too long but after seeing it, I don't think there's a scene that shouldn't be in this film.
Matt Reeves used this runtime well to flesh out his major characters. The Batman has a character arc and so does Catwoman. She's not just a sidekick here. I love the thing with Falcone cuz it gave her character more depth.

The action scenes were very good. That car chase scene was the best peice of action in a Batman movie. The trailers don't do it justice at all.
I love the way Batman fights. However, my only problem with the action is the plot armor used on Batman. Gunmen always shoot his chest and they never target the face.

In conclusion, the best thing about this movie is that it's Batman centric. It's officially the best Batman movie about Batman. TDK is a masterpiece but that movie was not about Batman.
His growth as a character was beautiful.
In the end he realizes that his methods was having a negative impact on the city cuz it inspired Riddler.
Like Minemrys pointed out "he starts off the movie as vengeance and end up as Batman".
The part where he was helping people in the end was beautiful. He transformed from a symbol of vengeance to a symbol of hope.

I also like that Gotham is a character in this movie. Gotham is truly Gotham and not Chicago like the Nolan movies.

Final rating 9/10

I can't wait to see it again when it drops on HBO Max next month.

Here's the Chinese poster

All the batman related movies and how they did in China

Cant predict how it will perform there, China is a tricky market

Here's the Chinese poster

Solid numbers right there

I still believe this movie will hit $800m despite the runtime

We'll see how it hold up in the upcoming weeks

Richest Bruce Wayne: Ben Affleck
Best Bruce Wayne: Ben Affleck
Best Batman: Christian Bale
Most Iconic Batman: Micheal Keaton

Always saw Christian Bale as the best of both worlds

Perhaps it's time to re-watch BVS

Xavier5:
Hmmmmmmmm

If Matt Reeves gets to do Mr Freeze in a sequel... Omo!

If he could transform Riddler into one of the best Batman villains in live action, imagine what he could do with freeze

Imagine the possibilities!

MJBOLT:

I thought Will Smith's character died in that movie

How they gon bring him back for a sequel

Xavier5:
Zoe Kravitz strips off for steamy bedroom shoot with co-star Robert Pattinson

Damn this girl is so sexy

Happy Batman day

Which one of you is seeing The Batman today or this weekend

I beg y'all in the name of whichever God you worship, no spoil the movie for us...make una avoid spoiler discussion for at least one week

I will see the movie next Thursday or Friday

Happy viewing

100naira:
one more season of f**k up and I'm officially done

I couldn't finish season 2

I have never given up on any other DC series as quickly as I did Titans

RayMcBlue:
with a production budget of 200m plus another 200+ in aggressive marketing, anything less than a billion is a failure.

I've seen several people compare it to Se7en, which is a high praise but won't do it any favours in the BO. Se7en is a masterpiece but a slow burn.

AnfieldFan:
We are talking about Scott...

And it is not unusual to think Scott might have a bias for or against a franchise like that lady...

It's a normal thing on Rotten Tomatoes

AnfieldFan:
Unfounded allegation....

Don't know about Scott but some critics on Rotten Tomatoes are actually hardcore Marvel fans and their bias almost always show...

Like this one that gave Batman a negative review because he doesn't smile

Trending as expected

AnfieldFan:
Rotten tomatoes isn't the standard. If them like, make them give am 20, a good movie is a good movie...

Rotten Tomatoes critics that trashed Joker

A movie that went on to get 11 academy award nominations, the highest in 2019

Xavier5:
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I

The review embargo has just been lifted.

I just finished watching IGN's review on YouTube and they rated it 10/10...

They called it a masterpiece

Timothee Chamalet as Jason Todd would be perfect

I don't expect anyone to have a problem with a teenager Robin taking on guys with machine guns...Tom Holland's Spiderman was 15 in Homecoming

Minemrys:
From what I am hearing, it hasn't. If the discovery deal goes ahead, it will be it's own thing on HBO max. Ezra Miller hinted at it recently, Snyder himself has been hinting at it. Ezra has confirmed there's a twist and everything is open ended.

You are right

Ezra posted something on his Instagram story about it and that Discovery deal is another factor

Discovery CEO David Zaslav once said he especially likes DC trinity and they will probably go for the money spinners... And Snyderverse was a money spinner.... We'll see how things turn out

AnfieldFan:
This doesn't invalidate Batfleck, does it?

I'm not sure

Black Canary is also back....

Xavier5:

Batfleck erased

Meanwhile Snyderbots are tearing their pants over this film

The more reason why I need Batgirl to be successful. I need it to break that HBO Max viewership record held by Mortal Kombat...

The tears and cursing it will cause these toxic Snyderbots will be beautiful to watch

Remember they are the ones that started the "No one cares about Peacemaker" nonsense only for it to become the biggest streaming show as at last month

pu7pl3:
Are y'all ready?

Was it not yesterday that ticket went on sale for this IMAX fan screening

Omo it already sold out

Guys what is your opinion on this matter.

It's general knowledge that not every woman will marry. But I strongly believe that the COMPLETE family unit is the best place to raise responsible and well behaved children and adults.
That is not to say that children raised by single mothers never turn out right.
My own cousin was raised by a single mother, a WIDOW and she grew up to become a very good woman...

Anyway, below is what Emediong Sunday said about it on Facebook....


This is how most men got married today ( even when they didn’t intend to

This is how many men today become dead beat dads … cos the girl wouldn’t abort And the man wouldn’t marry er

This is how many men today got hooked up wit responsibility they didn’t prepare for or wanted and their life start to dwindle

This is how the rate of single mom is always on the rise in the bleck community

This is how weak men and effeminate men tend to be on the rise due to higher rate of men being raised by baby mama

This is why the result of d death of masculinity in the society tend to be a problem

Cos when masculinity is dead or low … the community is weak … and when a community is weak … a nation suffers

And when a nation suffers mending it becomes hard

And people wonder why Nigeria is at it today … people still wonder why Nigeria is the simp nation of the world .

And people wonder why the black community is one of the most oppressed race ever

Chevk the comment section on that post xx and see girls agreeing to it.

Controversial in a good way plz

VerifiedStalin:
The writing is plainly visible on the walls. The average casual moviegoer has a relatively limited attention span, and unless the film is action-packed/humorous, they are unlikely to be interested in seeing sulky Bruce prance around Gotham, in a noir dim lighting. There's a reason why WB executives want to trim it. They've seen it, and they know the length won't go down well with the casuals.

Anybody remember Joker movie of 2019

Joker was not action packed, it's not even an action movie

Joker had no humor or comedy

Joker did not look like an MCU movie or a comic book movie

Joker was a drama, a sad depressing drama

Joker didn't have Batman, only Joker

A lot of average movie goers think it's overrated

Now my question is this; How did Joker become such a massive success

How did an R rated movie make a billion dollars at the box office

How did Joker outgross Deadpool films which was action packed with great humor

Who contributed to Joker's BO numbers

Average moviegoers or aliens from Pluto
