Dragoncaine Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 The hype train for this movie has been chugging at a really steady pace. All I need is for WB to move up that social embargo to next week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It flew by so quickly and was utterly engrossed in it. I loved it. Might be the best Batman film I've ever seen imo up there with TDK. How would you rank Pattinson/Kravitz chemistry against West/Newmar, Keaton/Pfeiffer and Bale/Hathaway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruiseCruise Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 How does Dano's performance compare to Ledger's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Unless Batman has big competition in week 2 that takes away all the shows. I cant see it gross less than 1B Yuan in china. Market is empty and primed for breakout. 2 weeks later does not matter at all. This is a movie that will bring in audience to big screen. Uncharted should not matter as its releasing before Batman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruiseCruise Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Its one of if not the most beloved comic book movies and most successful domestic dc grosser among dc/batman movies, its a fair question to ask how this movie stacks up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menor the Destroyer Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) TBH, TDK is a very good film, but I never really understood the way it got anointed as "Best superhero film ever." Reminds me of Empire Strikes Back, which I have a similar confusion about, despite greatly enjoying both films.

Are we not supposed to compare batman movies to each other? You can compare, i just think it's putting unfair expectations on top of it. Especially with questions like "how Paul Dano version of Riddler compared with Ledger version of Joker", i don't think it make much sense, it just adds more absurd expectations on it. And to be clear, i'm not attacking anyone saying this, i understand why people do this, i just think it's a bad way of hype something.

Merkel Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Each can have his own opinion, but the general consensus is that TDK is the best of the trilogy, the best Batman movie and one of the very best superhero movies. In the same way as ESB is held in general consesus as the best Star Wars movie, Personal opinions may vary, but I think it's pretty undeniable that is the general consensus, as much as is possible to have a general consensus about these things 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestPicturePlutoNash Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 The Dark Knight was just revelatory in 2008. The combo of Ledger's elevated performance, the political themes of the story and Nolan's groundbreaking usage of IMAX were unmatched for a comic book/superhero movie. Of course you could look at some narrative flaws and occasionally choppy editing, exposition etc.. but there's a reason it struck the zeitgeist in 2008 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belblazer Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 IMO, Superman 1978, The Dark Knight and Joker are the only CBMs deserved of a 10/10. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Reeves kinda set up those expectations for himself when he said that he wanted to make the "definitive Batman movie" and when the producer Dylan Clark told Nolan their intention was to top his movies.
