theCapraAegagrus Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 This appears well-directed, but the latest trailer still has positives and negatives for me. Music for the trailer is excellent, hopefully reflecting how good the film's score will be. Can't understand what Battinson is yelling at The Riddler. The machine gun scene is visually cute, but Batman has no business tanking machine gun fire. "Batman doesn't kill", but he uses the Batmobile to intentionally run another vehicle off the road? (Highlighting the stupidity of his 'no-kill rule'. Yes, do not kill intentionally, but attempted vehicular murder is definitely attempting to kill.) Trying to be open-minded, but also trying to be level-headed regarding this property, especially since I have no cohesive film universe to look forward to.

Batman’s been killing since the 40’s like it was his job. And I believe he yells, “What have you done?” In the trailer. Joshua33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the trailers, Batman electrocutes someone, beats the s^&* out of another and attempts vehicular homicide. I don't care if those characters don't die, but I care that "Year Two" Batman clearly tries to kill them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a very young and inexperienced Bruce Wayne lost in the role of Batman and all that anger that inspired him to take on the persona so as to fight crime. Supposedly he has not found his footing yet, but wants to exact vengeance on criminals so as to protect average Gotham citizens. That's what I got from the first two trailers. And it has my full and undivided attention (and planned theatrical money). Joshua33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all fine and dandy, but the director need not pretend that his Batman doesn't have the mind of a murderer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And people seem to forget how high his body count was in Batman (1989). He killed more than 75 people in that film alone. ▫️ and Larryw7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
