linkI hope not. He's sooo fucking overused, along with Batman to be honest. I honestly wish Batman, Joker, Superman and even Spider-Man get put into some vault and locked away so they can't keep getting milked so ofted.

“In my view, I just feel drawn to finding the grounded version of everything. So to me, it would be a challenge in an interesting way to try and figure out how that could happen, even the idea of something like Mr. Freeze, that is such a great story, right? I think there’s actually a grounded version of that story, which could be really powerful and could be really great.
So, I love the fantastical side of Batman, but this iteration, obviously, while being, to me, I think it is very comics faithful, but I don’t think that this one is necessarily, it doesn’t lean as hard into the fantastical, I guess. But I think to me what would be interesting would be to try and unwind the fantastical and see, well, how could that make sense here? And so that’s kind of my view, how I see it.”

But Mr Freeze… I don’t know. I hope they try though. I want him in the sequel.

I'm no expert, but I think if you sprayed liquid nitrogen on someone from a backpack, it would freeze the fuck out of them.

A grounded Mr Freeze is going to get weird.
I remember a Dark Knight thread back on old imdb that was about how you would "Nolanized" certain Batman Villains and Mr Freeze was an interesting discussion at the time.

I bet there’s a TicToc challenge about it.

I love how that dragonfly comes by. I must investigate and possibly die. I sense a disturbance in the force

I can see them getting away with it by explaining the tech as something "military grade" or whatever. Like it's experimental top-secret technology.

I really hope they ditch the grounded approach, because a lot of Batman's villains require you to just "go with it".

“I really believe in what we’ve done and I’d be excited to tell more stories… We are already telling other stories in the streaming space, we’re doing stuff on HBO Max, we’re doing a Penguin show with Colin [Farrell], which is gonna be super cool. And we’re working on some other stuff too but we have started talking about another movie.”

“There isn’t some special cut of this movie where it’s like, ‘Oh yeah, here’s the R rating that you’ve been desperately wanting.’ I didn’t have to suddenly start drastically cutting the movie or anything like that.”

“You don’t do a story and go, ‘This is Chapter 1’ because you might not get to do Chapter 2. So, the story had to stand on its own.”

“I knew we were challenging the audience in this side of world’s greatest detective side, because it was going to be a very complex narrative and it turned out they love that part of it. It was one of the things that tested best. So that part was a great thing to learn, which was that, actually, the audience would be excited about this version of the movie, and that only continued to get better as we continued to test.”

The review embargo will be lifted on February 28th. But there are apparently some reactions out already.

Batman reviews are out. courtesy of AQUA KEN!. The Reviews are out, Rotten Tomatoes, as of the time of this post, hasn't been updated yet. But I figured I'd share some of the reviews I've found so far. Ian Sandwell, Digital Spy (5/5): The Batman is an enthralling, chilling and fresh new take on the iconic DC hero that'll leave you desperate for another visit to this impeccably-crafted world. Don Shanahan, Every Movie Has a Lesson (4/5): The Batman has the teeth to impress any of the opposition and eat their hearts out in the process. Perri Nemiroff (4.5/5): Matt Reeves delivers a standout Batman movie. It's a dark, alluring mystery that digs deep into Bruce Wayne's trauma, how it's shaped him and how he's choosing to move forward. Jake Cole, Slant Magazine (3.5/4): The film stands apart for thoughtfully suggesting that Batman might actually one day make Gotham a better place, and not merely a safer one. Rob Hunter, Film School Rejects: The Batman brings the Caped Crusader back to Earth for a coming-of-age procedural delivering real thrills, a terrifically creepy villain, and a fresh start for a classic hero. Sheraz Farooqi, CinemaDebate (5/5) : The Batman is bold, brutal and oozes in gothic aesthetic. In a superhero movie climate where cameos and CGI-heavy sequences are commonplace, Matt Reeves answers back with cinema. Simply one of the best DC films of all time. Sean Chandler (A-) : While it may go on a bit too long, it provides a gripping detective story and fleshed out Gotham which compliments the other great Batman films nicely. Peter Canavese, Groucho Reviews (4/4) : While retaining requisite elements of blockbuster action cinema...decidedly shifts the focus to pulp fiction...The Batman feels more like a Batman story than a Batman movie, and that's an achievement in itself. George M Thomas, Akron Beacon Journal (B+) : The Batman could use a trim on its run time, but that doesn’t mean this particular universe isn’t worth revisiting. In fact, I’m looking forward to it. About Dre Says (Positive) : The Batman is a formidable, spectacular entry into cinema. I loved this film. It is beautiful - every shot, every frame, it's like it just jumped out of a comic book. [...] I pray that you guys gonna see this film. [Matt Reeves] is going to be one of the greats of our time. Zo Crawford (9.5/10) : I'm confident in saying this is my favourite Batman film - something about this iteration of Batman feels right for me personally. In fact, I dare to say I think it's one of the best comic book movies ever created. [...] I have a feeling this movie is going to be one of those films where kids grow up and they watch it and it makes them change their viewpoint on movies and how movies are created. Theories by Tyrell, UK (9/10) : This is the most different Batman movie we've had in a very long time, so the audience reaction I suspect is going to be quite divided - but where do I sit on it? I thought it was absolutely amazing. Tyler Calvert (Positive) : All around, The Batman is a great film in many, many aspects. I personally think it lived up to all the hype that it's been building the last couple of years. Pete Hammond, Deadline (Positive): A detective movie for the ages [... The Batman] deserves to be placed right alongside The Dark Knight.

Hey, @ghostyghostington Wanna team up and take over Gotham Sakaar? With my plant powers and your riddles to confuse them, the Batman variants don't stand a chance! Perhaps I should change my name to Poison Chalice?

Movie is sitting at 87% with 155 reviews. I'm worried about the DCEU. Wait, is this movie in the DCEU?

It’s a lot of fun. It’s quite a hoot. It brings in the cash, brings in the loot. But when The Batman comes out it will have to reboot!
What is it?
