[QUOTE]Originally posted by Obi Juan: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Balaam Xumucane: [qb] IN YUOR FACE, JOEL SHUMACHER. [/qb][/QUOTE]Are you saying that there was something wrong with Joel "I'm going to improve the franchise by putting sexy nipples on Batman's uniform" Shumacher's handling of the movies? [QUOTE]Originally posted by David Sands: [qb]On a side note, I also like DC's rebranding. I dare say it is as good as the Marvel branding we see at the start of their comics' movies. [/qb][/QUOTE]It was something that was completely lacking previously. I don't think any DC superhero movies ever even showed the logo. Maybe I am oversensitive to such lost opportunities because I work in publications, but it always bugged me. On a related note, I always thought that the Marvel movies should mention more of the other heroes in the universe. I mean, up until Spidey 2, the only time that a Marvel flick had a throwaway comment about another superhero not featured in that movie was the Superman reference in Spidey 1. Let's plug the competition! [QUOTE]Originally posted by Marauth: [qb] The point about the rebooting of the franchise is that the villains can now be re-used, the Joker, Penguin, the Riddler, Two Face, Poison Ivy and the Governor of California, don't count as having been used up in the American Psycho version of the timeline, it's not like they ever had continuity between the cartoon shows and comics is it? [/qb][/QUOTE]I am not sure that I agree with you. The other movies are recent enough that the villains may seem a little tired. Plus there are at least two villains that should be left alone because there is no possible way that they could be done better than the first time around: the Joker and the Penguin. The Joker because Nicholson was brilliant and made for the part, and the Penguin because DeVito was made for the part—a crappy part that could hope for mediocrity at best. [QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [qb](Did that bit seem quick to anyone else? "Hi, I'm Morgan Freeman. I understand you're that guy who used to own the company who was dead but no isn't. Here, let me show you these fancy gadgets and suit and stuff and you can borrow them for whatever it is that you do.") [/qb][/QUOTE]Lucius was disgruntled and he respected Bruce's dad. It was his way of sticking it to the boss but still feeling that he had not compromised his morals. [/QB][/QUOTE]
