Some tentpoles did OK (with lots of "would have done better w/o corona I swear" copium), some achieved pre-pandemic levels proving that covid doesn't stop people from watching what they really want to watch.

Joker had the general public hyping the movie. I just don't see this Batman catching the attention of the general audience, just the hardcore fans. they are plenty, but i don't predict a big breakout I'm with you on this one. I'm a fan of the filmmaker, but I just think at this particular time...unless things really flip positively in 4 weeks, ironically this movie will hit with an OOF instead of a SMASH. Bat-fanboys will always come out...will everyone else, considering the mood, and that they will gradually find out it will be streaming by mid-April? 2 hours ago, wintersoldier2021 said: No one is taking omicron seriously Therein lies the problem... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal favorite is when the "Why doesn't Bruce Wayne invest in ending homelessness and crime in Gotham?" takes come up every 3 weeks. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see a more fun Batman too but what they're doing looks great so far so no complaints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good or bad reactions to The Riddler's picture is only adding more attention for the movie that already has a lot of hype. Hopefully WB sticks with that March 4th date. I'm still confused on why it took this long after 3 trailers for that kind of reaction. That picture was released back in December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see a problem at all with a take on the Riddler that is reminiscent of the Zodiac killer, it’s one of the main things that piquing my interest in this film. I mean let’s face it, they both taunt their would-be-captors with riddles. It’s hardly an out of the realms of possibility stretch… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
