mattn792 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 So will this movie be 9 hours long, or will each character that’s being crammed in be allotted only 4.7 minutes of total screen time apiece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattn792 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 It’s a legit question. How often does a smorgasbord cast actually lead to a decent movie? theCapraAegagrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattn792 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Most every MCU movie you note had multiple prior movies feed into it, as did Dark Knight Rises. Guardians and X-Men are team-centric, so the comparison doesn’t hold. As an outsider, Watchmen, while entertaining, made little sense to me overall due to the dearth of backstory. Leaving Into the Spider-verse, which I didn’t care to see and won’t offer comment on. theCapraAegagrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artboy99 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 I hope they work on the Batman cowl design. Since 1989 they have been going with the molded head that limits movement designed for the appearance more than function. I am hoping for a combination molded detailed features on a fabric cowl design. Want to see Bruce pull the fabric cowl off / on like he does in Batman: The Animated Series. It can be done... will they? jsilverjanet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaving Into the Spider-verse, which I didn’t care to see and won’t offer comment on. Oh, I know with the franchise films there were prior productions. And with team films they are after all large-scale character productions. If you look at stories like The Dark Knight Returns, Batman: Hush and even Batman: Earth One and Batman Earth One: Volume Two these are mass-character stories about the wider world around Bruce Wayne. Including characters like Superman, Joker, Riddler, Killer Croc, Two-Face and more. Look at the Batman: Under the Hood (Under the Red Hood) arc. Not only did it have the primary character, but also Jason Todd/Red Hood, The Black Mask, Deathstroke, Captain Nazi, Hyena, Count Vertigo and Joker. Oh, and Ra's al Ghul and Talia too. Forgot about them. Batman stories that stand out, at times, are widely populated with characters leaving the reader with loads of eye candy.

Outside of TDKR - all of those are team-up movies. TDKR was a trilogy finale, though. Not a start-up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood1892 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Turturro in the show is awesome I love that guy and he has never disappointed. It looks like a list of who is who off the 'B' list. Not to be insulting to the 'B' list. Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
