As a long-time supporter of the idea of “Battinson in DCU could work”, I just don’t care at this point: just give me a Batman in DCU that works in the same world as Superman. As huge Batman fan, I’ve been STARVING to see him again on big screen: especially to see a version that’ll MATTER in long run
How many solo live-action Batman movies we’ve had since The Dark Knight Rises (2012): one — in 14 years!
And how many years it will be until we get the next live-action Batman movie in 2028: six!
And even that release date is not a guarantee due to Matt Reeves’ temporarily exiting the production of The Batman 2.
And, the relevance and hype of this movie diminishes when you realize that this version of Batman won’t matter in the long run as we are due to get a different DCU Batman movie after it.
It is so befuddling that despite being the greatest character of not just DC but the whole WBD, why we have gotten so little Batman movies in the last 14 years since TDKR? And the curse is only continuing with the excruciatingly long delays for The Batman 2 and the consequent delay of the DCU Batman movie.
As a huge Batman fan, I just can’t take it anymore. This is a huge disappointment of epic proportions that we’ve gotten so little of him in the last 14 years and have no clarity on when we’ll get him next, in a version that’ll stay with us for a longer time that is the DCU Batman, not Matt Reeves’ Batman: as Robert Pattinson has heavily implied that The Batman 2 could be his last Batman movie: due to his 40+ age, him finding it difficult to play this character now especially in action scenes, and given his own high profile status as a prestige actor.
