Guest Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Returns is great! It's a very different time from Batman, but it isn't trying to be the same. I wish Burton had stayed at that level of weirdness for longer, instead of just turning into Johnny Depp being dark and weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I agree with Keaton being the best at both. Kilmer was a good Wayne, and Clooney is just always Clooney. The best part of the Nolan series was Batman actually being a detective, which sorta pops up in the live action series, but not in any other movies. I'm very biased against the DCEU movies up until Wonder Woman. In fact, I didn't make it through Batman v Super-Man and skipped Justice League completely. I'm glad they're adjusting and moving forward and not feeling like they have to stick with the Snyder DARKNESS IS EVERYTHING! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Choc Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 The only super hero movies I really like are the Nolan Batman movies. I always have an issue reconciling when these movies try to blend realism and more fantastic elements. For instance the MCU has like some science based heroes and then a Norse God. It just doesn't work for me. I mean I get that Nolan's movies do have a group of people who live in the Himalayas and have been destroying civilizations for milenia and then one of their guys has a prison in a huge hole in the middle of nowhere. Not saying that is realisitic. It just feels grounded in a way and consistent in a way most of these movies don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Ender Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 The Avenger movies are, on average, terrible. There are only four good Avengers' movies: Ragnarok, Infinity War, and GotG 1/2 End Game is BEYOND terrible DC>Marvel Batman vs. Superman is a great movie and better than every Avengers movie. TPM>TFA>TLJ>every Avengers movie except End Game>End Game>AotC Come at me bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Krawlie Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I'd be super cool with never seeing another movie or TV show set in either the 50s or 60s again. Super tired of that time period and aesthetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super tired of that time period and aesthetic.It made a lot more sense in the 70s and 80s because it was appealing to adults at the time. If we're doing recent past period films, I would much rather see the 80s and 90s, or even the early 2000s. One of the best parts about Lady Bird was how will they used the decade without making it about the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 It's basically The Invention of Lying 2: Lying About the Beatles. And everyone knows that without "Imagine" we would be in a barren wasteland of evil that makes post apocalyptic fiction seem like the Care Bears. (I hate that song almost as much as the McCartney Christmas song) But I don't think it's set in the past since it shows an internet search.
