First Avenger at midnight was the only late show I ever did... back when those were a thing.

Midnight shows were fun when they were the only option, but with showings spread out now, I don't get the 3am shows.

Batman Begins was so boring.

 

TDKR was ass too.

 

Nolan’s trilogy only had one good movie and that’s my galaxy brain take

Probably settling like 88-91? Should be A- with a slim chance of one up or down.

Was pretty good, beautifully shot, loved Catwoman and the depiction of Gotham, fun mystery plot. Great score as well.

 

Pattinson a mixed bag, he has the dark side of Batman down but felt a bit one dimensional.

 

Did not like the performance of Riddler. Felt too "generic crazy dude" for me. Also did find the climax sort of tacked on.

 

Overall a strong first outing but I don't think I liked it as much as any of the Nolan films.

Well I wouldn't say I love TFA as I reserve that qualifier for other films in the series, but it's very good, yes.

 

...

 

We are talking about the same film, right?

The Batman fucks so hard, you guys. Might be my favorite Batman movie as well as one of the stand out of recent CBMs alongside Logan and Spider-Verse.

I hope we’re not talking about the same movie because there’s no way that Thor or Iron Man are better than captain America the first avenger, you crazy. You out of your mind.!!!!!!

Sure, start a Last Jedi discussion here, because we want this thread to go completely off the rails before morning.

Look if we can hit 100 pages then it will open to 260, that is just math.

Joke's on you! I was obliquely referring to Rogue One and Return of the Jedi! 😛  

 

(and OG Star Wars, of course)

pretty damn good for R movie

[DAJK]

Yea... let’s just say this ended up being FAR more walkup heavy than I ever would have thought  If this keeps up over the entire weekend... we’re in for a treat.

B+ can also happen at 88% just like joker . May not be r rated but I think it's skewing for that joker audience too and the runtime may turn some abit off so . So B+ wouldn't surprise me either.

Its a hard pg 13. But for the kind of movie this is A- would be good. 

[Cmasterclay]

Considering it is a work night in March and this movie is a legit three hours long, I'm not gonna freak out at any preview number. That's asking alot of people. I honestly think this is headed for like 18m previews but a much better weekend IM than some previous DC movies have had.

 

Movie is terrific btw. Had qualms that held it back a bit but overall.....excellent.

[grey ghost]

Well while we wait for numbers anyone who saw The Batman care to rank their top 5 Batman movies?
