Recommendation Part 2 almost confirmed. Jett over at Batman on Film said he's going to see it on either the 21st or 22nd and that he would be able to talk about it immediately. So that's very likely our social embargo date.

Weird, this guy says both the social media embargo and review embargo are on the 28th.

That’s not usually how it is but we’ll see. 
 

I don’t know if there’s a point to show the movie this early if they don’t allow social media reactions first tbh.

 It would be strange to have the social and review embargo on the same date; instead of getting two pops (assuming they're positive) you only get one, as it basically renders the social critique irrelevant. But who knows? We'll find out soon enough.

To be fair that's pretty much what Sony did with NWH tho, maybe WB just wants to follow them along.

Did they? Okay. Well, I obviously can't argue with how that turned out!

Without entering in details for obvious reasons, but if what i read about the cut tested on the last test screening is true, they kinda have at least one big enough reason to try to hold spoilers until very close to release.

 

The news coming out in the week of release could be actually helpful to make people even more interested.

 

I've seen this guy getting confused about different embargo dates before tho, so let's wait, but i wouldn't be surprised.

We need another batman vs joker desperately
Jokers ideology has permeated the culture too much
he's just been allowed to do whatever he wants for 2 movies now
need batman to beat some sense into him again. The Batman 2 250M+ OW

we need a good version of live action robin

Well, in an unexpected twist, tickets for this are now on sale in my country. That's insanely early, since presales (which only really happen with comic book/superhero movies here) start two weeks early at best. For this one, there's still nearly a month left until the movie. Warner's really bullish on this movie.

I really like the sound of that. If they make the 126th version of Batman in the first place, make it stand out from the others, make it feel fresh and different.

It's that worldofreel guy, who isn't the brightest out there but when he shares early reactions from a critic screening it has always been accurate (i.e. a real reaction lol).

Yeah, he had some juicy ones when The Bat was test screening. His tastes definitely seem to lean more indie than blockbuster, but he listed Batman as one of his most anticipated films of '22. (It was the only CBM that made the list.)

I hope it's not too much to ask, but can you spoiler tag these new pieces of footage in TV Spots and such? I kinda feel we're at the point where WB is showing too much.

[TheDarkKnightOfSteel]

Since it seems like WB is very confident in this and every insider out there has said that the film has gotten great reactions i don't get the late embargo. Many have said that it's not the "spoiler" type of movie so they should use the reviews to build hype.

I think it will increase a lot the interest to see the movie on the first week. Or maybe because of spoilers.
