Movies

The acting is good and the premise is certainly original. I just don't like it when they set the rules of the premise and then break them. {nm}

Posted by: ceregon on Jul 08, 19:35 in response to lobogotti's post I can agree (and almost wrote) that not sure a #14...

so after BATM3 comes in and claims the greatest comic book movie ever....both financially and production/direction, where does WarBros go lobogotti Jul 08, 18:35

btw, these movies aren't just great "comic book" movies, these Batman films stand up fine on their own lobogotti Jul 08, 18:43

Nolan IMDB Top Films... lobogotti Jul 08, 18:56

I don't get the love for Inception. It has so many inconsistencies it doesn't really hold up to scrutiny. {nm} ceregon Jul 08, 19:08

I can agree (and almost wrote) that not sure a #14 ranking is just for that film. it was very well done, but I think part of what you say lobogotti Jul 08, 19:11

any movie that uses the 'fortuitous vents' crutch isn't a great movie {nm} journey Jul 08, 21:34

Look at spidey, obviously there will be no *real* backlash, so reboot in a few and keep raking it in {nm} islander Jul 08, 18:47

oh yes, I have no doubt, but man it will break my heart unless someone like Fincher did it. lobogotti Jul 08, 18:48

Totally agree. Whatever comes out will be a complete disappointment if it goes down the reboot path. Broiler Jul 08, 19:18

What if Batman/Bruce Wayne dies in BATM3? {nm} Antibody Jul 09, 09:44

Simple....you come up with some new material/storylines that fit between movies 1 and 2 or between 2 and 3. {nm} Broiler Jul 09, 20:08

ben affleck gonna direct the next one {nm} islander Jul 08, 19:21

would not mind seeing him do a BATM4 {nm} tealfan Jul 08, 21:04

based on his last two I might be cool with it. if Argo comes in like I think it will he could be a contender. {nm} lobogotti Jul 09, 06:03

Just keep Joel Effing Schumacher away from the damned thing, whatever you do. {nm} Tanker Jul 08, 19:17

agreed {nm} lobogotti Jul 09, 06:02

ok fine...let Nolan do something original first...and then Bond :) {nm} tealfan Jul 08, 21:05

Warners should reboot and ,if able, tie it into Superman and try hard to get a DC film universe of some sort going... LanceStorm22 Jul 08, 21:20

the film had a lot of open-ended questions. Spidey spoilers... lobogotti Jul 09, 06:07

You could make a lot of the same kind of complaints about Batman Begins, though... LanceStorm22 Jul 09, 06:47

DC & Marvel do reboot after reboot after reboot all the time...why should they have all the fun? {nm} tealfan Jul 08, 21:32

in their comic books I mean {nm} tealfan Jul 08, 21:32

but how long do you wait for a Batman reboot? I would let at least 10 years go by before you even touch it, but it's such a goldmine that lobogotti Jul 09, 06:08

I'd go right on and do it, but have the first movie be more like Burton's in that he just is Batman at the start. Nolan's tale should be LanceStorm22 Jul 09, 06:34

I most likely won't be a fan of anything they try and do. But you never know. Obviously they have to be distraught because of what lobogotti Jul 09, 06:49

I'm going to give anything Batman related a chance, and I think they can find a new director that will give it an interesting take {nm} LanceStorm22 Jul 09, 07:18

obviously their goal is to go justice league or they could pull batman vs superman or batman beyond out of mothballs {nm} notfabio Jul 08, 21:44

Batman Beyond concievably could have better international draw and be more 3D friendly as far as those considerations {nm} notfabio Jul 08, 21:59

with Nolans help in Superman, do you think that was a setup for him to have a hand in JL? could he bring Bale back for something like that? lobogotti Jul 09, 06:14

how much does TDK 21 minutes extra time hurt the box office weekend {nm} farmhouse Jul 11, 13:00

if would KILL to see Nolan do Bond. oh man, that would be something {nm} Moviesnob Jul 09, 00:12

I wouldn't turn my nose to it, but I'm ready for some new content from the gent. I think that will help solidify his legacy and lobogotti Jul 09, 06:19

I won't surpass the Avengers in All Time Domestic and Worldwide sales. {nm} AgentEvil Jul 09, 07:12

Of course you won't. You're not a movie silly. {nm} BionicMoron, Not EAP leader Jul 09, 07:55

it's going to be close domestically. worldwide I could see Avengers gettign the upperhand. the olympics may hurt TDKR a bit... lobogotti Jul 09, 09:50
