The bit with Batman sitting with his elbows on the desk frustrated while bats fly around and dramatic music plays is absolutely hilarious. It's like he's just given up trying to get these bats out of his office and he's just begrudgingly accepting that they're here to stay.

Something I liked that my friend coined, is he calls it the Batman Corollary: "The less suited to a Batman role an actor seems to be is inversely proportional to how well they tend to actually do in the role", and he cites Michael Keaton, Mark Hamill, Heath Ledger, Ben Affleck, Joaquin Phoenix, and Robert Pattinson as examples of it.

Now when you "bring us back to the past", not only do we get to revisit the history of our favorite games, movies, tv, and music... But we get to look back on the history of *Cinnemassacre* itself. In fact, lately it has been a fair mix of both. That's almost nostalgia overload... and I can't get enough! Best "Joker"? Live action: Jack Nicholson, with a big honorable mention to Joaquin Phoenix. Animated: Mark Hamill... hell, he IS "The Joker"! RIP Kevin Conroy... he IS "The Batman"!

My favorite line from Jack Nicholson was always...

"Always be prepared. For anything..." Batman, probably.

@shahrouh Жыл бұрын

I actually agree fully with James on his opinions. The Gotham captured in Burton's vision was what I pictured Gotham to be, and Nicholson's Joker was the clown prince of crime with a signature laugh. Even after, when I saw Jack Nicholson smile, I saw the Joker. That's not to say that the other renditions weren't great but I agree that they felt genuinely more authentic to Batman despite some obvious glaring differences.

Pretty spot on. But then again I think we're roughly the same age. Now that some time has passed I also think TDK is a bit overrated and the one after (Dark Knight Returns?) is definitely the worst of the 3 Nolan movies. The Batfleck had potential that was wasted just like the entire Snyderverse, which I'm just not really a fan of beyond a few things. Affleck at least looked cool in the costume and could pull off a Bruce Wayne in looks if not acting chops better than a lot of the others. The newest one was also its own thing which was different, but in kinda a good way. I'd rate it at least as high as Begins or TDK. But in the end Batman 89 is the overall winner for me.

"not using any superpowers" except for endless endurance and stamina to the point of never sleeping, intergalactic intelligence that lets him learn a galaxy worth of information and technology, a healing factor that lets him operate at peak performance despite having every bit of his body that isnt his hands and face covered in scars and every muscle and bone in his body having been cut and ripped and broken at some point and then of course the private wealth that lets him finance both a hall of justice and a giant super space station. very grounded indeed.
