Chunk 9 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 The film will not be adapted from “Batman: The Dark Knight Returns,” Snyder said. Aw, sh*t. Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,871 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I doubt the name of the movie will be Superman vs. Batman. I think we're going to see them fight, though. Which is kind of cliche. Arcadax 1 Link to post Share on other sites
d0mm2k8 11 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 (edited) I don't know whether or not I want this and Man of Steel to be in the same universe as the Dark Knight Trilogy. On one hand it fleshes it out if they're in the same continuity but on the other hand it may just be unnecessary canon-bloating. Still, using the same Wayne Enterprises logo from the Trilogy in Man of Steel was pretty cool. Which is kind of clicheYeah, and as much as I love Batman, most times I've seen him fight with Supes in the comics it's felt like unrealistic Bat-fan service for him to not be completely demolished. Some times they've handled it in a clever way but other times just feels 'bleh'. Edited July 21, 2013 by d0mm2k8 Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,871 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I do love that line, from Dark Knight Returns when Batman says, "Remember my hand on your throat. Remember the man who beat you." Which was said at the announcement, and gave me goose bumps to her the audio of. Link to post Share on other sites
d0mm2k8 11 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Oh wow, the chills I get from that announcement. I really hope they do this right because it has a f*ck load of potential. I love The Dark Knight Returns (especially that part) and though I obviously don't want them to straight up copy the graphic novel, I do hope they take inspiration from it.

darthYENIK 8,871 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 It's funny to see the non-geeks act like "I Am Legend" foretold this, because it had a World's Finest logo in it. Link to post Share on other sites

It was JUST a f*ckin' joke by Akiva Goldsmith - he wrote I Am Legend, a draft of Batman vs Superman and some nameless Batman film that we must never, ever talk about.

Mista J 1,956 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Not liking how they're just dropping each other in, they should've done cameos like what Marvel did before making Avengers. I know about the satellite in Man of Steel, but it's not the same. Will still watch this once it's out Link to post Share on other sites
Finn 7 five 11 930 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I think Batman is cooler than superman, and more exciting than super man, because Batman is human, Superman is pretty well invincible, that's not fun IMO. However that said, they should never fight because Superman should absolutely destroy batman. Link to post Share on other sites

Sup3rman 63 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I wrote everything about this in the man of steel thread already....i am just so excited about this. But noone still knows the title of the movie. I don't think it will be Superman vs Batman. Just Superman/Batman maybe.. Then again, didnt they originally want to make this movie many years ago? Anyway, what i really want to know is if Nolans universe's Batman will return or will there be a completely new Batman with different story. Or even John Blake from TDKR as Batman? I have been thinking a lot about this already and figured out that both ways are possible. It's not that hard to bring back even Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne IMO, it just needs a right push. A new awakening of Batman would be awesome, with a new suit too. Link to post Share on other sites
NYC PATROL 1,528 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 After seeing Bale's version of Batman for the last 4 years, it would be hard to see someone else in the suit. Wonder who they will get. Link to post Share on other sites
Sup3rman 63 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Im wondering if it will be still within Nolans universe, because Nolan is the producer...but then again, maybe its like a reboot. I would imagine still Bale making a return, but maybe even Joseph Gordon Levitt. Then again, it seems in this movie an older Batman is shown...so why not Bales Batman making a return. Just watched how they introduced the film in comic con...just chills. Link to post Share on other sites

darthYENIK 8,871 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Saying Superman automatically wins is incredibly uncreative, and would be just as boring. Which means it's not going to go down that way. See you in two years when you're bitching that the movie didn't go down that way. Th3MaN1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They might fight at first and then team up to fight something or someone that poses a greater threat to the city. @theomenofficial The official title hasn't been confirmed yet.

Woody112 34 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Zack Snyder? Meh, that means the fights will be really awesome, but everything else will be garbage. I guess it could be worse, however. Link to post Share on other sites
Sup3rman 63 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 There is this rumor that Josh Brolin is one of the candidates to become Bruce Wayne/Batman in this movie...and i honestly say, if they do choose him, excellent choice. He has the face, the attitude and also a great voice. And he also looks a bit like Christian Bale: Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously not as old as Bruce is in DKR, but definitely well into his 40s. Have you seen him in the very unfortunate Oldboy (a Spike Lee joint) remake yet? Link to post Share on other sites
