Adapting Comic Book Source Material Into "Elevated" Films and Shows | Penguin • Rings of Power 

I don’t agree with bashing the Infinity Saga but I do think there is a place for grounded takes. That’s why James Gunn will have a fun in-universe Batman and Matt Reeves will have his own separate take.

Well he expressed his opinion, you expressed yours, I will say calling Infinity War gobbledygook is a bit weird. For you to elevate The Batman you have to bash and be negative about something else. For me I love Infinity War, I got to see tons of characters I grew up seeing in comics on a big screen. I also liked The Batman, but it’s very long movie and hence draining to continue to be engaged. There’s things that are great bout this version of Batman, but like Hector has said, it feels like Matt Reeves essentially took Batman and fit him into a movie he wanted to make which there’s nothing wrong with. However, like Hector, I want to see a GOOD Batman done where he faces these guys with random weird powers and interacts with the Justice League, Snyder Batman was an okay attempt at that but poorly done.

@@GurinderJohal So basically you want an "Avenger" in a bat costume. I guess I just don't understand your tastes. I read some comics when I was a kid, but I wouldn't say I was ever a comic book geek. However, I am a movie guy, and I like comic book characters because I grew up watching Tim Burton's Batman, Richard Donner's Superman, and Raimi's Spider-Man. And I love those characters because those were great movies, which made me care about the characters. With a movie like "Infinity War," it works the opposite. All the love that film gets is for people who saw they love seeing characters from the comic on the big screen. But if you didn't read those comics, I couldn't see how you could enjoy it, because that's the only appeal. It's not like there's some masterful "Chinatown/Klute/All The Presidents Men" level story telling going on, like there is in the Batman. It's just a bunch of guys in different costumes shooting magic at each other for 3 hours. So I don't want to see Batman become that. I like that he's grounded in a world I relate to, and weirdly, that makes it even more fantastical because you're being taken into a fantasy world that is actually believable and serious. Like let's be real - Nolan and Reeves' takes on Batman are grounded in reality, but they are still fantasy. It's just believable fantasy, and appeals more to adults because telling a real story is the focus rather than on flying wizards and whatnot.

You sound pretentious as hell

@@ed1rko17 lots of writing, but I’ll keep mine short. I never said give me the Avengers in a Bat costume, I said that I LIKED The Batman movie. But you clearly have something on your chest that you just have to get off so ima just leave it at this, you enjoy what you want, if you don’t like something don’t need to bash it because there’s others who do like it. #BePeace
