Maximum Ride was my top favorite in middle school
Off the top of my head,
The dogs of winter, the fault in our stars, lord of the rings, Jurassic park, a court of thorns and roses

There’s a lot on my TBR, I was stuck on young adult/teen books for a long time because I love them so much

#

how far into HoA are you

modern lichen
#

It’s not about the violence it’s about the novel being horrible to adapt because of how Crichton writes

sage remnant
#

HoA ch 20-24/WaT all
Good last 4 chapters. || Love Investigative Vin. Is the 16 related to Shard Number and that's gonna play a important role? Would they figure out that there's another power that's equal to Ruin and keeping it at bay, and hence come up with a way to utilize that balance. I dunno.
Terris people being invested by Preservation is why they aren't affected by Mist? Seems likely. Maybe that's how they would identify presence of Preservation.

I really want more of Vin and "Human", the Koloss she was talking to. I really want Koloss civilization to make way in this book.

One thing I don't like is how we are bombarded with Magic System terms like Blessing of Potency and Awareness. I know there was no way to explore these in previous book, but I dislike addition of entirely different lore that's not built up from earlier lore this late in the story. I am kinda able to excuse it since its supposed to be hidden and there wasn't a time for Kandra chapter before this.

The highlight was definitely Spook. The origin of the name got me to cry. It is the typical great Sando chapter that I used to love in Stormlight too. Like Dabbid's chapter in RoW || HoA/Stormlight all

tacit basin
sage remnant
#

HoA ch 25 || only noteworthy thing might be Elend's growth here, His utilitarian outlook that's been present lately, atleast for the army and everyone other than Vin, and his skills with army, managing, everything has improved so much||

HoA ch 26 || Spook's chapter feels sadder as it goes by. Ruin's starting to control him 😭 . Also what's the thing with him suddenly having Pewter now. So Allomancy is indeed Ruin's and he can just randomly give people the ability to burn random metals? Or is there some second "Snapping" which unlocks them to use pair of their metals, having an extra category between Mistings and Mistborns for allomancers. If that were so, I doubt it wasn't discovered in 1000 years of Rashek's rules and Allomancers being present.
Best part of it was the emotional crux of Clubs and Spook's relation and Spook's perspective on it, and the pain that he feels of abandoning Clubs. ||

#

Ch 27 and 28 || Like I said above, Hoid's presence makes it wonderful and this is close to the Hoid that I want (way better than the Hoid I was given in book 1 and 2) . Vin accepting/realizing she was more content in that period of them plotting the revolution and the balls and etc was just v emotional. I like when for characters, some such turbulent times are some of their best times. I can't describe why I like it much, but it's kinda been the same case for me in my life and seeing that be presented makes it feel nice.

It has one of my fav sentences of HoA. "Somehow she had grown into a woman in between the fall of kings and collapse of worlds". This acceptance/realization is just such a pivotal moment for her character and the convo between Elend and Vin in following chapter is made all so very great. Vin convincing Hoid/Slowswift, that whole bit of dialogue was amazing. And then her acceptance of her "legacy" as she implies with convo with Slowswift. :chefskiss:

Your takes are pretty good actually. Seems like you are enjoying the book. And you are thinking about the right things KumaHappy HoA || just take those Magic System drops as little hints about what's to come. it's not all supposed to make sense right away, but you already know that CrocoWine Just trust Brandon to cook BBWise Won't say too much not to spoil you ||

It's just too late kinda

#

Without any reason for it to be this late

#

Err there's reason alright

but it feels disjointed with others

#

cosmere general no major spoilers || I mean sometimes brandon just references something from another book and its not going to make sense if you havent read the other book yet ||

sage remnant
#

My only issues with HoA have been
|| Epigraphs making it unreadable at times, new Magic system-eaque stuff and lore of Kandra established this late, and that it feels like there's no sense of finality ||

oh wanze said it already

Y'all's fav character have a "Psychology of [Character name]" book written?
Batman has

white smelt
# main lion he knows whats up

It’s so funny that Batman (and all comic book superheroes really) have like 10% of stuff worth reading and the rest is all poop from a butt

spiral quest
#

If you say so

white smelt
#

It just comes with being a 100 year old property

#

And having hundreds of writers

main lion
#

the latter part is the issue

spiral quest
#

10% is just an extremely low percentage

near echo
#

Batman as a character is open to interpretation more than most cuz he's got such a strong foundation

spiral quest
#

One I definitely don't agree with

near echo
#

Everything from Adam West to The Batman to Absolute

#

So he'll always be cool and interesting

spiral quest
#

I am not saying every Batbook is perfect but there is a ton of good

#

Agreed with Bon

near echo
#

Hope we don't see the joker again for another 20 years tho he feels like a tumor on the series at this point

spiral quest
#

He was over used

#

And way too edgy for way too long

main lion
spiral quest
#

As much as I love the Dark Knight, Ledger's Joker ruined Joker for a long time

main lion
#

in that sense

spiral quest
#

I understand, but I am saying in the realm of that medium as you say, saying only 10% is worth anything is pretty egregious imo

main lion
#

I dont agree

spiral quest
#

Then it is what it is

main lion
#

theres like 10 shitty manga for him in the past like 5 years alone

#

and thats just manga versions

spiral quest
#

Agree to disagree then I suppose

white smelt
#

Batman is in like 10 books at any given time

spiral quest
#

And?

#

Does this make him worse?

white smelt
#

They aren’t all good lol

spiral quest
#

I am not saying they are all good

#

I am saying if you have ten books and only one if them is good as you are saying, then I don't agree

white smelt
#

I’m saying 90+ years of being in multiple books, with varying quality makes actual good Batman stuff rare

spiral quest
#

And I am saying it is not that rare

white smelt
#

Okay well then you’re wrong lol

spiral quest
#

By what objective metric lol

#

By your rating?

near echo
#

I think it's just semantics lol

#

Is all Batman stuff like, worth going out of your way to pursue?

#

No not at all lmao
10% feels accurate

#

But if you're into cape comics? There's a consistency to him that makes his stories always reliable and holds up the quality

#

Just depends how much you're into the DC universe

mild seal

Batman the best, wanze just a contrarian and red is a weeb

#

Checkmate

near echo
#

I read a lot of DC in highschool and now I barely pay attention unless it's something that's getting rave reviews

near echo
spiral quest
#

I think 10% is just a low estimate of what is good

mild seal
#

Oh IDK what the argument is I just wanted to say red and wanze are biased

spiral quest
#

I mean so am I, I have Batman Beyond on my pfp lol

mild seal
#

Lol

#

Fuck yeah Batman beyond

spiral quest
#

I have no ill intent towards Red, Wanze, anyone else. I just think 10% is a little silly of a number

mild seal
#

A show so good they made him canon in the comics

sage remnant
near echo
#

The stuff that kinda rises above the genre

#

I get it

spiral quest
near echo
#

And it's the fact batman can just be a dumb fun superhero comic but also occasionally reach those artistic heights, while also reconfiguring his universe for the current decade effortlessly, that makes him so special

spiral quest
#

Mhm I agree there

main lion
#

theres a lot of subjectivity there obviously

#

but for manga for example, I'd even argue less than 10% is actually good lol

valid thunder
#

10 percent is wayy too high

#

given how much batman content there is

#

theres thousands upon thousands of issues

spiral quest
#

Whatever man. Read what ya wanna I guess. Anyway I got a foil number 1 of absolute batman for batday

#

Sick times

main lion
#

I just feel like you might be taking the comment too seriously? All the comics from batman you've expressed having read are ones Ive enjoyed too

#

but I tried random ones when I tried getting into batman a decade ago

#

and the ones I tried then, without guidance, were definitely ass

#

I tried reading the killing joke recently and cant finish it, Im getting bored even though its VERY short

#

I saw this badass batgirl cover and I considered reading it from that. I havent yet, because it seems to be considered generally ass

#

from online sources

near echo
#

Is that Cass

#

Love her

main lion
#

the artist? Idk but based on this cover I do too

near echo
#

Nah the character lmao

main lion
#

oh in the background?

near echo
#

Cassandra Cains my Batgirl

main lion
#

didnt even know there were multiple canon characters for batgirl tbh

near echo
#

There's 3 important ones yeah

#

It's a title

#

Cass is the coolest of the three but DC historically sucks at writing her

main lion
#

😔 rip

white smelt
#

Cass is the one who had a full mask

main lion
#

she looks really cool

near echo
#

I think that's been fixed in recent years? But I don't read comics much anymore cuz money

white smelt
#

She’s Asian and I think was part of the league of shadows?

#

And sometimes she’s mute?

near echo
#

Her stories are usually about learning to be a human being

near echo
#

Are you reading the old print or the new one

#

Genuinely believe the coloring of that comic impacts its tone a LOT

#

And the new ones are way more muted and grounded

Sopranos finale ||also remember what chrissy told Tony and Paulie. Watch out...3 o'clock. Thats the direction the members only guy went to. And where the bathroom was, where he likely got a gun out.Tony was always courting death, and it caught up to him.||

Sopranos finale ||he very likely could have saved some face if he changed post shooting. Everything he saw in that dream was very clearly real. The supernatural exists in sopranos. And he din't take any of these warnings seriously by the end. Remember he made fun of Paulie for seeing the virgin mary.||

# sage remnant ~~It's great but it felt like a combination of first ep of a series and a movie ...

Superman 2025 ||it feels like a miniseries of comics yeah. I actually like that
Superhero movies regularly get bogged down by trying to turn a single plan, a single villain, into a 120 minute origin story. These golden age characters are made for smaller scale ones with a large ensemble cast. Bringing them through multiple episodes and encounters with a throughline to tie it all together is I think the BEST route you could take for a Superman movie

I just think that sci-fi Hades prison takes too long when it's the least interesting section of the movie and pulls it away from a lot of its core cast||

sage remnant
#

Oh I liked that

#

|| Monkey bots was so good || superman 2025

spiral quest
#

Superman 2025/Man of Tomorrow speculation||I agree with Bon, I think the pocket dimension prison was a bit long. I don't overly mind it because Mr. Terrific was heavily involved in saving Superman from it. However, there is something I find interesting. Lex is supposedly going to be a focal point and a team up character of Man of Tomorrow. I want to see how Gunn is able to make this dude a protagonist you can root for. He created a whole military conflict that resulted in a lot of damage, unknown how many deaths, traitor to his country because he is envious of Superman, tortured Krypto, and to top it off dude straight up mruked a very innocent dude who did nothing but help Superman out of a crater he got thrown into. There is more but that's kinda where I am like wondering how Gunn redeems Lex or if he even tries to. It may not matter if it ends up that Braniac is in town||

sage remnant
#

Superman 2025/man of tomorrow || I don't think he needs to be redeemed. It's just gonna be a greater threat for which utilizing him would be better for Earth ||

spiral quest
#

Superman/Man of Tomorrow||from what I read from Gunn's comments, it seems like Lex is a very big focal point. Said that the story is much a Lex one as a Superman one. So, I don't know how you go about that if Lex is still hated in audience's minds. Well I hate him anyway. I am interested to see what happens||

It made me feel all good inside; what a wonderful take on Superman being, well, the positive and uplifting character he's known as in so many people's minds. 10/10 scene was when Lois and Superman were talking before he turned himself in while Green Lantern and co. were just beating the shit out of an alien light show the entire time. Supergirl's actress being from House of the Dragon makes me very excited for her movie.||

foggy mirage
#

Feel bad for the people that din't enjoy superman

#

Because DC is fully back

#

Next up is supergirl and then clayface

#

Ngl clayface has me in a chokehold

#

I need to see that

limber urchin
#

Fan question from Worldcon 2025 regarding ASOIAF (no story spoilers) ||There's being an asshole, and there's whatever this guy decided to be.||

#

They were both on the same panel when the question was asked.

valid thunder
#

Brandon sanderon finishing asoiaf would be terrible

#

Like it would be better if it wasnt finished rather than brando finishing it

white smelt
#

Absolute Batman #2 ||Uuuuuuuugh. That “Batman AF” page hit me like a dump truck||

unkempt agate
#

twd s7e3 || we're on easy street.............. and it feels so sweet................... ||

foggy mirage
#

Absolute martian manhunter ||its so peak 😭 god i love how insane the white martian is.||

spiral quest
#

Feat of Clay part 2 is a TOP TIER episode of btas

spiral quest
#

He worked well for Wheel of Time

foggy mirage
#

When he wrote the script

#

I need this to be just a complete break down of hagan as a person

#

@south hatch @frank rivet holy shit he responded so fast

#

He did not want a single person to watch that shit

#

😭

white smelt
#

Finished the first absolute batman arc

spiral quest
white smelt
#

Cool stuff

foggy mirage
#

So dont have to worry about that

spiral quest
#

Good

#

Clayface is body horror

foggy mirage
#

My guess is clayface is gonna murder a lot of people

spiral quest
#

It needs to be highlighted

foggy mirage
#

Honestly the one that I'm willing to bet will suprise people the most

#

Besides a super girl movie kicking ass

spiral quest
#

BTAS ||When they pour the chemicals into his mouth in feat of clay and he melted and all that in the car?? Chills for a kids show||

#

I hope it's awesome and I have faith in Supergirl

#

It's based off Woman of Tomorrow

foggy mirage
#

Its based on woman of tomorrow so yeah

spiral quest
#

And that's cool as shit

foggy mirage
#

For clayface i want to see his face fall apart

#

Alongside his body

spiral quest
#

1000%

foggy mirage
#

Like Hagan needs to be dehumanized

#

Completely

#

Starts as a likable and charming guy

#

The actor for clayface has been reading comics where he shows up

spiral quest
#

I agree. The actor part really would go far in that

foggy mirage
#

And clayface bad day

spiral quest
#

I actually need to read Clayface's bad day

#

I own the box set but haven't gotten to it

#

I read Killing Joke and Riddler's

foggy mirage
#

I fumbled it

spiral quest
#

No worries I know

foggy mirage
#

I forget thats what his is called

#

😭

spiral quest
#

We on the same page

foggy mirage
#

I already know if the movie does well

#

They will suddenly start using clayface

#

Way more in the comics

#

😭

spiral quest
#

Which good he deserves it

#

Clayface and Scarecrow are two that def need more spotlight and interesting writers behind them

foggy mirage
#

Im still so suprised the 3rd movie in the dcu

#

Is clayface

#

And its gonna show off gotham

foggy mirage
#

Ace chemicals is a given

main lion
spiral quest
#

Makes me happy. Ive long preferred DC to Marvel so it's cool to see positive momentum for DC

foggy mirage
main lion
foggy mirage
#

They decided to use it in the dcu

#

Backstory for clayface

#

Who is in the dcu

#

We've seen him already

spiral quest
#

Gunn proved his mettle imo so if he likes it

main lion
#

ye in the cartoon or w/e

spiral quest
#

Then I am good to give it a chance

foggy mirage
#

Clayface would never work in reeves verse

#

Unless you do the first version

#

And id rather not

spiral quest
#

That and I like his work a lot anyway so maybe I am biased

#

The Guardians movies were always super fun

foggy mirage
#

Clayface is a story that can easily work

#

In live action

#

Specially with sfx as it is these days

spiral quest
#

Tbh most of Batman works in live action

foggy mirage
#

And prosphetics

#

The only one that might be hard is man bat maybe ?

#

He doesnt really carry a movie

spiral quest
#

I think it's possible but yeah he needs to be secondary

foggy mirage
#

Clayface has the advantage of having a good backstory

spiral quest
#

On Leather Wings is great and the 2004 The Batman Man Bat episode is good but unfortunately Man Bat isn't deep enough for a full movie

#

But he is a fun villain

#

I love creature featurues

foggy mirage
#

Clayface has been adapted in 2004

#

And he was great there

spiral quest
#

Features*

foggy mirage
#

Even if it was a different origin

spiral quest
#

Yeah I loved that version

foggy mirage
#

My guess is they combined basil karlo and matt hagan for the dcu

spiral quest
#

The Batman 2004 ||it was a good way to take the spirit of two face since they weren't allowed to use Dent||

foggy mirage
#

Famous actor gets disfigured

foggy mirage
#

My guess is via a gangster

spiral quest
#

Even if I kinda would be good with just Hagen

#

Hagan*

foggy mirage
#

So we have a group of people who will be brutalized

#

By clayface

spiral quest
#

Clayface isn't related to Matt Reeves stuff is he

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

I doubt it

#

Yeh

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Right I meant more like

#

Reeves isnt involved at all

foggy mirage
#

So tom rhys will be clayface is he shows up again

#

Which is likely

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Interesting

foggy mirage
#

From what I saw

#

Same for dynamic duo

spiral quest
#

He produced Penguin as well

#

So I am curious

foggy mirage
#

He seems to be very interested batman stuff regardless

#

And wants to do a dcu movie

spiral quest
#

I love his take on the Batman stuff

foggy mirage
#

I wouldn't be suprised if he does the question

spiral quest
#

Even if I am a little tired of grounded batman

foggy mirage
#

😭

#

Gunn and him seem to have a good working relationship

spiral quest
#

Yehh

foggy mirage
#

It doesn't seem like Gunn breathes down your neck like kevin

#

😭

main lion
spiral quest
#

Did you see Gunn is actually involved with the Lego Legacy of the Dark Knight game?

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Well not overly but he was in the behind the scenes

#

Along with Jim Lee

foggy mirage
#

Reeves just seems to be involved with batman stuff regardless if its dcu or crime saga

spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

And keeping us updated

#

Than radio silence

spiral quest
#

Yeh I love it

foggy mirage
#

Like sell me the hype man

#

Stuff like this is why I got interested in clayface

spiral quest
#

He wants this to succeed for more than just money

#

At least it feels that way

foggy mirage
#

If this works i think the variety of dcu movie

#

Is gonna expand

#

We legit might see more horror themed stuff

spiral quest
#

I think it's gonna be expansive. I don't think it's gonna be like the MCU

foggy mirage
#

Lower budget stuff with more experimental stuff

spiral quest
#

Which btw, I don't hate the MCU. I have criticisms of it still but warmed up to some stuff

foggy mirage
#

I'm hyped for Spiderman 4

#

If its good

spiral quest
#

I am too

foggy mirage
#

Doomsday eeeeeh

spiral quest
#

I still need to see F4

#

I haven't had the chance

foggy mirage
#

Its good tbh

#

I enjoyed superman more tho ngl

#

Way more

spiral quest
#

I imagine I will too

#

But I like F4

#

As a team

foggy mirage
#

I feel dcu won't be pigeon held

#

Like mcu became

#

Where they spammed you

#

With content

#

It seems 2 movies and a show

#

Is the standard

fresh umbra
#

Superman has way more staying power

foggy mirage
#

This year its peacemaker

spiral quest
#

That and it doesn't seem like you have to watch tv show after movie connecting all of it

foggy mirage
#

2026 lanterns

#

Which has me geeking

fresh umbra
#

I watched that multiple times and while I liked F4, I'll probably never watch it again

spiral quest
#

Lanterns I am excited for

foggy mirage
#

Good lantern content

spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

In my lifetime

spiral quest
#

It looked fun at least

foggy mirage
#

😭

foggy mirage
spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

Lmao

#

😭

fresh umbra
#

I think it's very likely Lanterns is really good if you look at all the people working on it. I'm just worried about how much actual Green Lantern stuff we see in the show.

foggy mirage
#

Its rated tv ma

#

TV version of R

foggy mirage
#

I'm in heaven

fresh umbra
#

The only official look we have at it is 2 normal guys walking down a dirt road

foggy mirage
#

Dog they can do black hand

#

Without issue

#

I was on my knees when I heard tv ma

fresh umbra
#

Actually it's not a dirt road but there's dirt everywhere else

foggy mirage
#

Till a trailer

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Me either

foggy mirage
#

Or how cooked Oa looked

#

😭

spiral quest
#

It was such a bad movie

#

Actually

foggy mirage
#

Why did they make Oa so ugly

spiral quest
#

Wanna see some funny shit

foggy mirage
#

Like holy shit

spiral quest
#

Gimme a sec

foggy mirage
#

Its supposed to look nice

spiral quest
#

THE proud of owner of this gem

foggy mirage
#

Goddamn

#

That's a goddamn relic

spiral quest
#

I had to get it

#

When will you ever see something like this again

foggy mirage
#

Would be cracked af if Gunn gets the millers to do that batman beyond movie

#

After the next spider movie

spiral quest
#

God that would rule

foggy mirage
#

Would be hilarious if we get dynamic duo

spiral quest
#

Terry McGinnis deservs his day

foggy mirage
#

It does well

#

And then that is the next animated project

#

😭

spiral quest
#

I want to see my guy on the big screen. It's a shame that DC has acted like Beyond doesn't exist

foggy mirage
#

It either gets relegated to elseworld

spiral quest
#

I'll take elseworld

foggy mirage
#

Or sometimes the actual dc future

spiral quest
#

Just give me something

foggy mirage
#

I remember we had a run where Terry met modern day Bruce

main lion
foggy mirage
#

I guess he figures might as well get the guy's input on stuff

#

He just seems very willing to collaborate

#

It also seems to help that Gunn doesnt really seem abrasive to work with.

foggy mirage
#

Terry could very well have a future in that

spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

We getting titans, wonder woman, booster gold, swamp thing and batman

#

Is my guess

spiral quest
#

Booster Gold hype

foggy mirage
#

Also 3 lanterns

main lion
#

my irl friend wants ritchson to be batman but I dont see it

spiral quest
#

I can see it but idk if he's my first choice

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Momoa as Lobo is the only thing I really wanna see

foggy mirage
#

This casting is gonna be just as important if not more than wonder woman

spiral quest
#

The rest I'll leave to Gunn

foggy mirage
#

I need someone who can actually act for wonder woman

#

Like holy shit

#

😭

#

Don't do a gal again

spiral quest
foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Good

foggy mirage
#

So we good on that

spiral quest
#

Momoa fits Lobo VERY well

foggy mirage
#

Momoa was screaming like crazy about it

spiral quest
#

Always was a head scratcher that he was tapped for Aquaman

foggy mirage
# spiral quest Always was a head scratcher that he was tapped for Aquaman

Jason Momoa didn't originally think that he would land the role of #Aquaman! See the story of how he got cast, and watch his final performance in #AquamanAndTheLostKingdom now available on Vudu. #shorts

#

Even he thought that shit was so random

#

😭

spiral quest
#

Because it's fucking weiiird lmao

main lion
#

Ive not seen anything from momoa that made me feel like he was a solid actor

spiral quest
#

He will work as Lobo

foggy mirage
#

Lobo is purpose built for lobo

#

Its gonna work

spiral quest
#

Lobo doesn't require anything crazy

main lion
#

he has the look thats really it for me

foggy mirage
#

Which is uncanny

spiral quest
#

If he can't portray Lobo, then he had no business acting ever

foggy mirage
#

If you read anything with lobo in it

#

Its such an obvious casting pick

spiral quest
#

Yeh

main lion
#

its less about typecast and more about acting chops in general

#

comic books are also inherently often times more simple in their portrayal of characters from my experience so far. More straightforward

foggy mirage
#

From what ive seen from proper lobo

#

Its gonna work

main lion
#

live action a bit diff

spiral quest
#

I agree with Lisa

#

I dont see it being an issue

main lion
#

Im also just a momoa hater

foggy mirage
#

If it was something with more brain behind it

#

Id agree

spiral quest
#

Lobo wouldn't have like

foggy mirage
#

But lobo is hard to fuck up

#

Specially for momoa

spiral quest
#

Anything more than a secondary antagonist role anyway

foggy mirage
#

Also yeah I doubt he's the main

spiral quest
#

I love Lobo but he isn't carry a movie material

foggy mirage
#

He's more than likely gonna help kara

#

By the end

#

More than anything

#

😭

spiral quest
#

Yeh and not a ton

#

Even his STAS episode wasnt like

foggy mirage
#

I am not worried about the super girl movie tbh

spiral quest
#

Overly carried by him

#

I wouldn't worry on that one

#

Woman of Tomorrow as the basis is good shit

foggy mirage
#

Clayface is likely safe so long as the promotion is good

#

The biggest one im worried about is swamp thing and batman

young compass
#

so are they making another batman film

#

not even in the new dcu?

spiral quest
#

Swamp Thing is going to be interesting

foggy mirage
#

Pattison is getting his 2nd movie

#

They are still writing brave and the bold

#

Then my guess is casting and production

foggy mirage
main lion
foggy mirage
#

Swamp thing deals with supernatural menaces

#

Might even see Constantine

young compass
spiral quest
#

Yes but he is letting Reeves do his thing afik

foggy mirage
#

He's letting reeves do what he wants

main lion
foggy mirage
#

No reason to mess with the guy's vision

main lion
#

ty for no merge 🙏

main lion
#

but if the cinematographer isnt coming back 😔

foggy mirage
#

The run i hope the swamp thing movie takes from

spiral quest
#

Battinson wouldnt really work imo with Cornswet's Superman anyway

foggy mirage
#

Also dcu batman has damian

#

That was confirmed

spiral quest
spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

And red robin

spiral quest
#

Lfg

foggy mirage
#

No clue about batgirl

#

But if he's at Damian those other 3 are a given

spiral quest
#

Nightwing is a big win

main lion
#

guess gunn doesn't see a way to bring them in without starting with them. Origins for all of them would be tough to match the timeline of other non batman movies

foggy mirage
#

Way too many movies

#

And way too much time

#

I dont want to wait 6 years

#

To see nightwing

#

😭

#

Or red hood

#

Just start with Damian have us learn his history from there

main lion
#

yeah PepeLaugh

I see a lot of people upset by it, but I think people are just used to EVERY batman movie being "early years" or origin stories

foggy mirage
#

Thats it

#

😭

#

Never in the middle of his career

main lion
#

yup, just utilize flashbacks occasionally if necessary

#

itll be fine

foggy mirage
#

Most people watching these likely already know about these characters

main lion
#

maybe get a different director tho lowkey...

foggy mirage
#

We have to see how it shakes out

#

They might end up switching

#

Or he might lock in for brave and the bold

#

The flash was just cursed

main lion
#

looking up his directing history

#

forgot about the SotC movie wanze mentioned

foggy mirage
main lion
#

which never was actually made

#

"On January 8, 2025, ten years after the last official update, Muschietti gave a comment regarding the project to Radio TU, a radio station from his home country. Muschietti told the station that the film wasn't abandoned, and that there exists a script that he likes. However, no studio has picked up the project, as the director requested a funding of 200 million dollars to start it.[8] "

foggy mirage
#

Shadow of the collosus movie is crazy

main lion
#

damn it still has potential

spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

We also know bludhaven

#

Is in the dcu

#

They mentioned it twice

main lion
#

I doubt hed be IN the titans

spiral quest
#

Yeah but Id like a solo venture but that's fine

main lion
#

he can just show up

spiral quest
#

I also have been reading Tom Taylor's run so

#

It could be a bit of that

foggy mirage
#

I mean red

#

😭

main lion
#

I wonder if we'll see bludhaven in Reeves verse

The Batman || didnt catwoman say she was going there?||

main lion
foggy mirage
#

Unless they make red robin

#

The robin for the titans

#

They need a robin

main lion
#

I assumed itd be dick

spiral quest
# foggy mirage

Have him being recruited by the titans or something or like the beginnings of it

foggy mirage
#

Red

#

😭

main lion
#

wait oh ICANT

spiral quest
#

Red Robin is Tim

#

So yeh

#

It'd be Nightwing

foggy mirage
#

Yeah dick = nightwing, Jason = red hood and tim = red robin

spiral quest
#

I still think Red Robin is a lame name

foggy mirage
#

Red robin is crazy

spiral quest
#

But idk what else youd do

main lion
#

you can tell Ive never read or watched anything with nightwing.

I guess I shouldve remembered arkham knight tbh

foggy mirage
#

I always think of the burger place

#

When I hear his name

spiral quest
#

Yeah it's not good at all

#

Tim needs a separate identity

spiral quest
#

There's so many cool Batfamily names Red Robin is so ass

foggy mirage
#

Beat you up and give you a burger

main lion
#

I dont think red robin is even bad tbh.

#

Its fine

spiral quest
#

Red Robin is like Batman ran outta names to give

foggy mirage
#

I do think max in the dcu batman movie we'll get maybe batgirl in some form

#

Alfred is a given

#

Don't give me that bullshit

#

That he's dead

#

I wont stand for that

main lion
#

I know people are hoping for a super beefy muscular batman but I hope they dont get ridiculous with it by hiring some roid taker

spiral quest
#

"You're huntress. You nightwing, ofc batgirl, robin

Uhm. You're RED robin, Tim"

main lion
#

red robins are real 😔

spiral quest
#

Yes but just

#

It's very Robin and Robin 2

foggy mirage
spiral quest
#

Mario and Green Mario ah

foggy mirage
#

Depends for me

main lion
foggy mirage
#

A little muscle wouldn't hurt

#

I want blue tho

#

Enough with these dark ass outfits

#

Put him in dark blue and gray

spiral quest
#

To an extent. I just think it diluted Tim's identity

main lion
#

the batman has the absolute best batman outfit out of any of the movies but yeah do blue

spiral quest
foggy mirage
#

It can easily work

spiral quest
#

I like dark blue batman

main lion
# foggy mirage

I think it looks better in artwork though, just cause they can make the cape cover it in more flattering ways

spiral quest
#

It would differentiate him well too

foggy mirage
#

Its been showing up more

#

Suprised how much tbh

#

Used to be straight up black

spiral quest
#

We've had so much either grey or straight black batsuits

#

It would be nice

foggy mirage
#

Just make it a bit darker

spiral quest
#

Just don't do Bale's batman suit, I love those movies but that may be one of my least favorite's

main lion
#

btw I recently discovered the show reeves was going to do that follows a bad cop as the protagonist that goes through the gotham times while gordon joins the force and while Im glad that transformed into The Penguin down the line, I actually hope we STILL get that eventually.

I need to see Gordon being as badass as Year One

foggy mirage
#

It should be different enough you can visualize it apart from battison

main lion
#

and his bruce

#

quite frank

foggy mirage
#

What Gunn said so far

#

On the matter of a batsuit

#

He dint flame the color

#

Just the obliques

spiral quest
#

Said

#

I love the movies

#

But Bale is not the reason lol

main lion
#

ye PepeLaugh

foggy mirage
#

Yeah bale is not why

#

😭

#

That man is not my batman

spiral quest
#

Dark Knight is still an all time classic. Begins is better than I remembered. Rises may be worse than I remembered

main lion
#

my irl friend is very clearly like, obsessed with the nolan trilogy as his definitive depiction of both batman and bruce.

So he compares everything batman he sees to that, and defines batman as being how bale portrays him.

spiral quest
#

Begins pisses me off most. That portrayal of scarecrow is garbage

spiral quest
#

I can understand Conroy

#

But Bale??

foggy mirage
#

Bale is not an accurate batman

#

Wtf

#

😭

main lion
#

Dark Knight still good to me but not as good as I remembered.

Begins was worse than I remembered.

Rises is hot trash

main lion
#

tiktoks or the grape vine

foggy mirage
#

To be fair animated batman

spiral quest
#

That suckssssssss omg

foggy mirage
#

Slaps way too hard

#

To the point arkham

#

Is literally just btas

#

Batman in game form

#

Down to the joker

main lion
#

I dont really agree lol

spiral quest
#

And it is better fornit

#

Well

main lion
#

I think its got similarities but I just dont agree theyre THAT similar

spiral quest
#

I mean the stories were written by Dini

foggy mirage
#

Wrote arkham asylum

spiral quest
#

That's pretty BTAS

foggy mirage
#

And city

#

And he did btas

main lion
#

I didnt say he didnt ICANT

foggy mirage
#

😭

#

It couldn't be more literal

spiral quest
#

They aren't 1 to 1 but the ideas are there

main lion
#

you can write something from the same IP that is different than another work you did within that IP

foggy mirage
#

Also why did my Spotify fry my ears with country music for the last 3 mins

#

Holy shit

#

😭

main lion
#

I think the voice does the heavy lifting for the "similarities"

foggy mirage
#

Me personally asylum fits perfectly as a btas episode

#

By city you can say they split apart more

spiral quest
#

Asylum, if you toned some stuff down, would be a great btas movie

foggy mirage
#

But I still feel that btas spirit

#

Yeah btas gets pretty dark

#

Like the phantom movie

#

Enjoyed that a lot

spiral quest
#

Mask of the Phantasm is just Noir bliss

main lion
#

Ima be real the phantasm movie is NOT that dark bro

#

I just rewatched it

foggy mirage
#

Compared to the usual affair

spiral quest
#

It's not disturbing, it's just good ass noir

foggy mirage
#

It was just great noir

main lion
#

maybe compared to usual btas

#

but its not dark like

#

in general

#

it just has more death?

#

I guess

foggy mirage
#

Also liked them using it as a backstory

#

My first experience with batman

main lion
#

reminds me, when is that spiderman noir bullshit

foggy mirage
#

Was that one game

#

Christ

#

The btas one

main lion
#

from gamecube?

foggy mirage
#

This one

main lion
#

yup lol

#

I saw that in a retro game store literally today

foggy mirage
#

Its pretty great ngl

#

Little janky these days

#

But goddamn

main lion
#

idk if there are any great licensed games back then but Im sure with a tinge of batman bias it can be fun

#

in the same way like

#

pirate warriors CAN be

foggy mirage
#

Id say its actually good ngl

#

It and the sequel

#

Bale had one game

#

I believe

#

It wasnt every good

#

Asylum really raised the bar

main lion
#

yo

foggy mirage
#

Also this is a no contest

#

😭

main lion
#

ps2-ps3 era was PLAGUED by the obsession with making

#

live action movies

#

into licensed games

#

instead of doing their own iteration

foggy mirage
#

Ngl sometimes it worked

#

The over the hedge game was fire

main lion
#

it was fun in the raimi spiderman ones but that was NOT because of the story or characters PepeLaugh

#

it was just fun to play

foggy mirage
#

The raimi spidey games were peak for me tbh

main lion
#

peak is crazy..
