I try not to pre judge , but...

If Robert Patterson is the new Batman then I think I am done seeing batman films.

I concur.

What if Batman is all sparkly now?

Just kidding, mostly. Pattinson isn't a bad actor judging from the independent stuff he's done lately. I'm just pretty tired of Batman and superhero flicks in general.

DC just needs to stop it for a while. Like, say... 15 years. Minimum.

I stopped watching Batman films when Ben Affleck took over. I'll give RBatz a chance. But probably not much more than one.

The Dark Knight Trilogy was Batman's last decent outing, and that was no thanks to Christian "Mumbles" Bale.

Never forget.

Actors who have previously appeared in bad movies are actually capable of later appearing in good movies, I heard.

Remember in the late 90's whenever Leonardo DiCaprio was in a film everyone was like "NOT THE FUCKING PRETTY BOY FROM TITANIC HE SUCKS!!!!!!"?

Look how dumb those people seem now.

Pauly Shore has never appeared in a good movie. Know why? Because every movie he appeared in had Pauly Shore in it. Sometimes a crap actor makes for a crap movie.

I got to touch Pauly Shore once. I'm still trying to wash the ick off 25 years later.

To be fair I'm not sure Nicholas Hault is a much better option.

I was hoping for someone a bit tougher, an actor who looked like they could do you some damage physically.

But I also think the reason that the Nolan batman films did well, is becaues there was a decent enough gap between the end of the Burton/Schumacher films, and now we just get a batman film rushed out every two years or more.

Give people a chance to miss batman, and they'll be more like to embrace a new one when he turns up.

I wish someone would fucking clarify if the Planet of the Apes movie Matt Reeves directed was the first one or the second one because it's literally impossible to tell from the title of the movie.

Bruce has to be a muscly guy, you can't swing between buildings from a rope the width of fishing line unless you are effing FIT.

Reminder that before starting prep on Batman Begins Christian Bale looked like this:

It was the latter (and better) two. And Cloverfield.

Christian Bale put on some pounds to play Bats, true. Too bad he didn't cram in some lessons on enunciating his lines, as well. Every line of dialogue, the guy sounds like he's talking with a mouthful of cotton.

Also known as Gargling Ernest Borgnine's Balls.

I think I liked the first Apes movie more though? I liked the part where John Lithgow said "shut up, cunt" to Ceasar. It's possible I'm remembering it wrong.
