August 9, 2012 4:01 pm i could see affleck being aqua man........maybe or superman. but it seems we've got someone for that. not sure about this oliver queen business. captain marvel?
August 9, 2012 3:58 pm well, although i think affleck is a great director and could definitely do this, thats not the best argument in the world branagh had done henry v which was a rather epic and action packed movie, and jon favreau did zathura which is far closer to a blockbuster than gone baby gone or the town. while nolan's movie's aren't the most superhero-ey, he'd proven himself as an incredible auteur and artist in a way the other three have yet to do.
August 9, 2012 3:22 pm i think you misunderstood me by giving us john blake nolan solved the problems an inevitable bruce wayne reboot would face in being inevitably unfavorably compared to his films. john blake gives an opportunity for a reboot without over-writing nolans mythology
August 8, 2012 7:23 pm (also they could certainly bring back red haired man from dark knight and have him be the riddler. damn i want to see that movie)
August 8, 2012 7:22 pm i am honestly perplexed by anyone who doesn't want a john blake batman movie does that not provide the perfect solution to the nolan-less batman problem we all find ourselves in? it kinda makes perfect sense to me--nolan left john blake with a suitcase full of instructions and a bat-computer. probably filled with instructions on where to train/talk to lucious fox or what have you. with a new director i feel like that would be a perfect vision of batman, a bit younger, a bit less grim, but still in the same universe. tie him in with man of steel, and you've got a justice league movie on your hands. that way at the end of the second act of a JL movie, when earths mightiest are in some shit and don't know who to turn to, batman can say, I know who and bruce motherfucking wayne comes out
July 22, 2012 10:35 pm kinda shocked not more people are making the return of the jedi comparison
July 21, 2012 2:40 pm surprised that this trailer is so similar to the superman returns teaser think i liked that one better though still, i'm a little excited. but mostly terrifyed.
July 21, 2012 2:39 pm ya, just what we need. blockbusters trying to look like malick movies. that's fresh. on a related note, when does the hunger games 2 come out?
July 21, 2012 1:42 pm this is really really late, but does anyone realize how much of "kickass" was in this movie?
July 21, 2012 1:08 pm so barbara as the love interest for JGL in the next one then? please?
