8.3? for batman the cartoon live action if written by a moody teenager


3 hours and all they did was investigate? no character development at all? it's literally an episode of batman the cartoon. how did this get 8.3? i hope adults werent reviewing this movie on imdb. everything "cool" in this movie is basically what a teenager thought is cool. this batman is corny. the story barely makes sense. batman doesnt even do anything. he's just moving from scene to scene like a cop and investigating crimes. lol i mean really? alfred is like what, his fucking dad? he sure acts like it. also apparently alfred is like some ex british special forces who became a butler. bench press 350 and does cryptography on the side.

the action choregraphy is so bad. batman hits like he has no power. he hits someone 5 times and they just stand there. even in real life that doesn't happen. anyone else laugh their ass off at the neck bomb scene? the timer is ticking down. you can literally see how much time is left. i kept thinking ok this guy is too smart, he's gonna back away just in time before the bomb goes off. nope. he stands there at point blank range as the timer goes to 0 and he's shocked when it blows up. also it does 0 damage to his face apparently but blows up the other guy's head. the black guy from west world is just there to be the explainer. he doesnt do anything. just waits around to fill in the blanks and acts dumb.

So a movie portrayed batman doing what batman actually does - be a detective? How terrible.

Yeah, batman was an emo teenager. That was the whole point and why he "grows up" in the end and turns from "vengeance" to a "hero". That was the whole point.

The timer was there specifically so that batman could see how much time is left. but he was too absorbed in getting the information out to notice it. More towards character of batman not being mature at that point in the story.

reply

so a 35 year old man is not mature enough? if this was something involving emotional processing, i can understand but if a man is not capable of avoiding a bomb when a timer is going off, he's a fucking idiot. he's not immature. seriously. what kind of bullshit excuse is that?

reply

Batman was 24 in this movie. He was also pretty much left to grow up alone as a child with only Alfred to keep him company whi himself admits hes not good at being a father. On top of that theres the trauma of having your parents killed. Obviuosly there will be some issues with his maturation. Especially since his excentricity isnt reigned in as it would be in regular families but allowed to continue (him going on vigillante hunts for 2 years, etc).

You forget he saw himself as immortal savour of the city and cased far more about what the guy said than that the bomb existed.

reply

should a 24 year old be able to avoid a bomb going off if he can see the timer ticking down in front of him?

reply

Not if hes spent the last 14 years thinking he is an invincible vigilante and is only interested in getting information out of the guy the bomb is strapped to.

reply

so batman is delusional?

reply

Yes. Of course he is delusional. He dresses like a bat and thinks crime can be solved by punching some guys in an abandoned warehouse or an alley.

reply

I have not seen the move. The trailer looked corny. But if if went from 8.2 or 8.3 that might say something.

Very disrespectful 2 moody teenager

You are a moron Nolan Fan. This movie was WAY better than Nolans.

Also Batman is not superpowered. So why would he not take hits like a normal person. You are really reaching Vereen. Go watch the DCU or MCU for the stupid silly shit...

reply

would a normal person not be able to notice a ticking time bomb right in front of his face? how do you go through the world being as stupid as you anyway? i'm serious.

reply

Did you seriously criticize the choreography? Please tell me you are not saying the Nolan films had better choreography.

reply

stop bringing up nolan. i never said anything about his movies. i am talking about the fact that he was interrogating a guy wearing a ticking time bomb with the time displayed right in front of him. would a normal person be able to avoid that bomb? answer that question.

reply

Would a normal person dress up as a bat and fight crime? Answer that question. No of course no normal person could avoid that bomb. No normal person would be close to that bomb.

reply

soo.... you're saying batman is NOT a normal person and so you just answered your own question

"So why would he not take hits like a normal person." you're such a moron that you knew the answer but still asked me? is that what's happening here?

reply

Where is it required that Batman can't take hits because he isn't normal? If the hero takes no damage it gets dull rather quickly. You are the moron who thinks you are the sole authority on what a good movie is.

reply

lol ok so is batman normal or not? come on make up your mind. you can't have it both ways to win an argument no matter how it's argued. that's not how this works. no normal person is stupid enough to let a bomb blow up in their face. if someone does let it happen, then they're a dumbfuck. is batman a dumbfuck? that's why this movie sucks. end of story.

reply

Nope again your argument makes no sense. So if a person isn't normal that means they can't take hits is what you are saying correct? Yes or no?

reply

sorry you got like triple negatives going on there. rewrite it and i'll answer your question.

reply

So Batman can only take hits if he is normal?

reply

you're deflecting this too much. your question and what i said about the bomb are two separate things from my original post. first of all, if the story is written extremely poorly if someone like batman can not even avoid a fucking time bomb in front of him.

second, the choreography sucks because batman hits too softly. i dont recall ever talking about whether he can take a hit. your argument is that he's suppose to be a normal man and that's why he can't hit hard like a super hero. i never talked about him throwing some guy across the room. you ever seen tom cruise's bathroom fight scene in mission impossible? that's what a good fight looks like and it can still look realistic. the director for batman doesnt know what good choreography is.

reply

Lol you are deliberately avoiding answering the question. You said you would answer it and now are side stepping it. I answered your question already.

Lol you are out of your league when discussing choreography with me champ. I grew up on Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, jet li, and Donnie Yen among many others. Watch the raid redemption, the raid 2, the night comes for us, ong bak and those put mission impossible to shame. The fight in the bathroom was good but I've seen martial arts films that make that look tame. The choreography was actually rather good. Was it the best? Nope but it was good and far better than the fights in the dark knight trilogy. Either way the movie was a hit critically, by the mass majority and financially. There will be a sequel and you will spend your hard earned money to see it.

reply

Go back and watch your Nolan films. Lmao

reply

Dude I dont fucking know. Can a fucking tank drive over rooftops without falling through??? Go back to your nolan shit you idiot.

reply

can you stop bringing up nolan you dumb of shit. why are you raging like a bitch? this is a discussion. if you can't handle it, go cry to your mom. why are you even here? learn how to talk to people and stop crying. i dont give a fuck what happened in another movie. we're talking about this one.

reply

It took you...18 FUCKING DAYS TO RESPOND...πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

reply

huh? and is that suppose to be some kind of putdown? not sitting on here all day to talk to people? do you not have a life? i'm being honest when i say this, i have no idea who the fuck you are and what we've been saying but it sounds like you were probably being a crybaby.

reply

Of course I have a life. Lmao If we were still restricted to desktops I could see your point. But we are not. It's easy to have full day and still respond to the internet in a timely fashion. But 18 days?? πŸ˜‚. That definitely tells me you are a Nolan fan. I have no idea who the fuck you are except a crybaby nolan fan...

reply

holy shit you really do sit on here all day. i'm still here because i'm replying to other people and you replied within 4 minutes. what the fuck? hahahahah. yea but even with a phone, are you like sitting around not doing anything all day?

reply

I had just woke up if you must know at 6am and i have a day off. And I noticed I had a another stupid reply from you in my notifications.

Than I had breakfast went out for a bike ride and coffee and now I'm on the toilet taking a dump replying to a bitter moronic nolan fan that would not know a good movie if it hit him in his stomach. You do realize that we get a notification within the search bar....that is how I just saw this one right now looking at the daily news. Ok I'm done with my dump. Responding to a shitty thread on the shitter...time well spent

Now go stuff your face with pizza and popcorn watching your beloved nolan films..
