Not sure where this movie will end up. But knowing Keaton, he'll surprise everyone.

Great cast.

[jaybuck43]

Gotta say, this looks interesting. Thanks for putting it on my radar.

[ChrisInBaltimore]

So I have to say that between your synopsis and that trailer I have no idea what is going on…

[conditionfreak]

Looks lame.

 

One of those "introspective" movies. I hate those.

[Mayor006]

Well I'm confused.

[comicstock]

Great cast.

 

 

Will Gary Owens be doing the Birdman voice?

[Bosco685]

 

Well I'm confused.

 

What else do you want to know?

 

[Cephusdog]

Anyone else think this was about Chris Andersen?

"The unexamined life is not worthy of man," said Socrates. Stop hating.

Anyone else think this was about Chris Andersen?

 

That was my first thought. I couldn't stand watching those damn awful tattoos prance around a whole movie.

[General Zod]

The Joker called him "Junior Birdman" in Batman. Ahead of the times, I see.

[Tony S]

Great cast. But the movie itself doesn't sound like my cup of tea. Probably a rental a year from now.

Looks like the first super hero movie I've been excited to see in years.

I prefer introspective movies to completely mindless CGI cartoon fueled punch and explosion scenes.

Darn. I thought they were making a movie out of Harvey Birdman, attorney-at-all. Now that would be a great flick with Michael Keaton.

I thought the same thing when I saw the title. And even more when they show the live action shot of him in the suit.

 

It is not to be.

Me too, got really excited for a minute. I suppose there's hope as you could still cast Gary Cole in that role and Stephen Colbert as Phil Can Seben since neither are too old and could be made to look like their cartoon counter-parts.
