That line about white men was so forced and shoe-horned in it had to be deliberate. The concept was never touched on again in the film. The company told them they had to tick that box and this was how they decided to do it. It was followed up by a completely shoe-horned kiss scene out of left field for no reason too, just so you get the message, here is where we cram in our waste of time scenes that should have been cut but cant be.
>The concept was never touched on again in the film.
The good mayor was a black chick and the whole movie was about Bruce having to check his privileges.
It didn't work. The first half wanted to be Seven but didn't have the balls, the second half wanted to prove Batman was as bad as the thugs he chases, and the flight escape scene was ludicrous. Add to that the fact that every corrupt person is white and every 'good' person isn't, and frick this movie.
Batman is a fricken cuck moron for not punching catwoman right in the jaw for calling his race evil, because she's also calling his deceased parents evil, since they were white people in suits too.
You have a point about the se7en stuff it was the main issue. The antagonists were terrible, all three of them. Penguin looked fake as frick, a man in a fat suit when they could have just cast a fat actor, everything about riddler and joker was cringe it just was too much for me. They should have had riddler be more mysterious like John Doe from se7en before they caught him. Actually the film would have benefited from never revealing him throughout the whole film, like Jack the Ripper never really being caught for over a hundred years, just Batman seeing his horrific crimes that even he couldn’t stomach and who was always one’s step ahead. It could be like a huge mystery where he just sees the results of the crimes, the film never showing anything about him but what’s in his wake, the crime scenes and the riddles. Batman could spend the whole film going apeshit trying to figure out who he is and failing and eventually just capturing the penguin instead. Then this leaves build up for a future film everyone would ask who the frick was the riddler? Eventually, three films later they could unmask him in some epic showdown. Instead it’s just an autistic moron. Such a failed opportunity to build up suspense and intrigue. The film instead shows us the riddler almost immediately. The best part about se7en was not knowing who the hell this guy was, just an anonymous lunatic that could be anywhere and attack anyone at any time. No exposition at all. It’s like a ghost. The riddler could have had that energy. Sad.
It had various elements that were actually really satisfying. Yes, there were stupid parts, but it always promptly moved to the next scene with better polish.
Other movies draw out the trash and make you regret watching
Like any decent capshit flick, it wasn't purely capshit, it was also part serial killer mystery. The nolan trilogy was part crime thriller. The first iron man was part amurica frick yeah hero. The first thor was part mythical hero out of time. Movies like Black Adam, Shazam, and Suicide Squad are pure capshit. Bottom of the barrel characters who have no backstory or super lame origins and then lumped together to force some semblance of a plot while wearing goofy impractical costume while doing dumb cgi action we've already seen before. They're basically the same as the WWE. Reeve's Batman wasn't even amazing, just a bit better than other current capshit.
It wasn't great but it was absolutely watchable and that's all it needed to be in this sea of dog shit CGI. People like Batman because he's just a man.
>why did this work and all the other DCU shit flopped?
because robert pattinson is a good actor and ben aflec is not >b-but henry cavil is #OurGuy
superman live action never works with this hyperreal/grunge style that post-dark-knight superhero movies have to be now
It was moronic garbage just like all capeshit.
Just because it had a running time of four hours does not mean it was good.
>200mill budget
>almost 800mill Box Office
>Catwoman is POC that hates white men in suits
>Boring fricking movie in general
>Riddler is Nolan Joker recycled
>Penguin does nothing
Trash

Yeah white people like us are so evil man, especially when we are feeding the homeless and driving ambulances
>us
sure thing pajeet
Shut up zoomer.
Catwoman didn't realize that Batman was one of the rich white guys
>The concept was never touched on again in the film.

I thought 700 mill meant it broke even? They had to do reshoots
It was grounded
Batman always makes money.

>every corrupt person is white and every 'good' person isn't,
but the titular protagonist and his butler are white

Don't quit your day job.
It worked better as an unintentional comedy than any other DC movie.

Nothing about it was "satisfying" frickhead. Stop forcing yourself to try and like this movie. It's dogshit, I know it you know it everybody knows it.
Ok you've convinced me.
It was the best Batman movie in 10 years

This should've been the inspiration for the riddler.
Mostly good story of the type DC is actually good at making, instead of attempt #3000 at trying to be Marvel.
It wasn't great but it was absolutely watchable and that's all it needed to be in this sea of dog shit CGI. People like Batman because he's just a man.
Batman like nr. 3 among the average population. And I think Gotham City the favourite city, with the Joker looming contributing to it.
He also gets 40+ y/o to go out and see it. My uncle hates fantasy, sci-fi, capeshit in general etc. but he likes Batman.
