Ben Affleck has written script for ‘Batman’ solo movie; only contracted for ‘Justice League’ movies
Thing we probably thought we knew, but didn’t know for sure, but now is sure: Ben Affleck has written a script for a Batman movie. Thing we probably didn’t think we knew, but didn’t know for sure, but now is sure: despite having written the script for a Batman movie, Ben Affleck ain’t contracted for one. I have to imagine this will get done, though, I mean, right? The common refrain coming out of BvS is, is, is, is, “well, I can’t wait for the solo Batman movie”, right?
Ben Affleck working on “something” with Geoff Johns; Obviously ‘Batman’ solo movie
I mean, it has to be a fucking Batman solo movie, right? If not, Affleck and Johns are trolling the Internet at completely fucking respectable levels. FWIW, though, I can’t stand Johns. #ISuckIKnow
‘Batman v Superman’ TV Spot: A Smoke Grenade Tricks Superman. Seriously.
So, uh. In this spot, Superman looks pretty fucking dumb. Like, a smoke grenade tricks him. Definitely not Grant Morrison’s Genius Superman from All-Star.
Rumor: Affleck rewrote parts of ‘Batman v Superman’ while *dressed* as Batman on set
How is this for an absurd rumor & confirmation that the script for Batman v Superman is garbage (not that you probably needed any)? Apparently the Bat-Fleck would spend time on the Batman v Superman set, in his Bat-Suit, rewriting his dialogue and shit the day-of.
‘Batman v Superman’ Final Trailer: Bruce Wayne Is Good At Fighting
Okay, I’m not going to fucking front. I smiled throughout this entire trailer. Like, I *know* that this movie is probably going to be ass. I know! But finally, a fucking *fun* trailer for the movie. Highlighting the usual Snyder imagery that tricks me into thinking I’ll enjoy his characters. I’m a sucker for flash, and fighting, and Bat-Guy and Super-Dude. If the movie could tow the line and actually just embrace its absurdity, we may be in for a good ride. The problem is that this is the first trailer that doesn’t make the entire movie feel like a slog of brooding broodiness. Who knows. I’m, at least, more excited than I’ve ever been for this movie. (Which is saying absolutely nothing, true.)
‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ TV Spot: “The Bat is dead. Buried.”
Man, can you imagine if Batman v Superman is good? It just sort of hit me today, watching this clip. Not that I particularly liked this clip (at all). But I’ve been writing this movie off for so long, I’ll be goddamn staggered if it actually entertains me. Like, really pleasantly surprised.
‘Batman v Superman’ TV Spot: BatGuy is way mad Superman wrecked his car
Apparently the World’s Greatest Detective thinks it is a good idea to try and hit an Indestructible Alien with his car.
