Looks great. The pedigree is top notch, so no real surprise. Batman is just about the only comic book franchise I’ll show up for no matter what at this point.

I really enjoyed that. Plus, did we just see Batman fighting and, well, the fight looked good. He should be wearing the giant “S”  on his costume, because this trailer gives me Hope. (Matt Reeves is a great writer/director and it was more the RP and if he could pull it off, and he so far does)

Holy crap this was Colin Ferrell!

I saw speculation online that it was him, but I thought people were just jumping to conclusions, and this was just some no name actor playing a random goon, but no this is actually The Penguin! Kind of looks like Richard Kind.

I didn't believe it was him, but after rewatching the trailer and hearing him say: "this guy is crazy!'; uhhhh . . . that's Colin fucking Farrell. Leave it to the Apes director to pull off amazing practical makeup. The eyes are the biggest give away in retrospect. Paul Dano as the Riddler and Colin Farrell as the Penguin?

 

People need to be paying attention to this movie.

Grittier! Grittier! Grittier!

 

How many Batman reboots are we from these movies just being 2 hours of torture porn in the dark rain?

 

(eh, it looks fine. I know Batman is gritty, but at some point it just gets a little silly)

You have to realize the suit is probably his first one he made. Hopefully they make a few movies and we see upgraded versions.

I believe he has more than one suit in the film
