 I almost never do reaction type videos when it comes to movie trailers because I find them almost incredibly useless. But we're living in weird times right now so let's get nuts! For the younglings out there, that was a Michael Keaton reference to 89's Batman. I know it's an old film. It was a long, long time ago. I did that little quote because I recently rewatched that movie along with Batman Begins. I'm doing a movie feud on them where I compare the two movies head to head, see which one people like better. And those two movies couldn't be much further from each other in terms of the tone, the story, the characters. They're all very different. And then you have this Matt Reeves one which once again looks wildly different than the previous incarnations. And I guess my initial completely useless take is that I just need to see more. I'm not really sold on it. I'm not against it. I'm just kind of indifferent. History can enlighten. It can make us take pause and reflect back on previous judgments. And it can also be a cruel mistress where filmmakers, producers don't learn from past mistakes. In this case I just want to tread lightly. Obviously we have the pick of Batman. A lot of people know him as Edward from Twilight. Few know him as Cedric from Harry Potter. That's what I like to remember him as. He's done a lot of indie films. I don't think many people saw. I don't know why I'm building up to this. Like it's a character reveal. It's Robert Pattinson. I just, I don't know. He looked fine in the few shots I saw of him as Batman and the cowl and the cape and the costume. He beat the living hell out of a person. That's kind of Matt Reeves. If you've seen the rise of the Planet of the Apes, you know that it's a very kind of brutal story about apes taking over the planet. That humans are kind of trash. So I expect Matt to really get kind of kind of crass at parts. Get pretty in your face. Pretty intense. It's not going to be a film that you know all walks of life are going to be able to enjoy. You know there was a time when the original 1989 Batman was said to be a bit much for people. Now you look back at that and it's very quaint. You got the Joker. You got Jack Nicholson dancing around to some Prince music. You got some you know a parade going on. There's some silly commercials. It's just kind of all fun and fun and songs and dance. And now we have we have Batman you know beating the living hell out of a person. This is a teaser trailer so we didn't get a whole lot to chew on. Colin Farrell is in there as the penguin. Virtually unrecognizable in the role. Colin Farrell, I've said this many times. I don't know why but I have he's a very underrated actor I think. I think he really does have the acting shops to to carry a film. He's a great supporting character and I think he'll be a terrific villain as the penguin. Zoey Kravitz as Cat Girl. I mean I guess she's Cat Woman. I just expect more of an older character. I don't know how old Zoey Kravitz is to me. She still looks like she's like 16 or something. Age has eluded me in this world now but she's Cat Woman. Very very short shots of her. She's she's moving around a lot. She's very spry, very athletic, quick on the feet like a cat would be. I guess we'll see if she's got nine lives. See if see if she's gonna make it through this film. This is a movie that I feel like a lot of people are gonna die in. I feel like Batman's not really gonna care so much about the whole thing that comic nerds seem to care about when it's convenient which is whether or not Batman kills people. It seemed to be a pretty big hang up on BVS. A cinematic mess for me but the one thing I did not harp on or care about was Batman kind of like machine gunning people down in his car because once again every iteration basically has had Batman like throwing people off buildings and like throwing a batarang through their head and things like that. I just can't imagine all those people lived. I really can't. There was an Hirvana song in the trailer. A little bit of grunge in there mixed with the grime on the on the screen. It looks like it's gonna be a dark depressing tale. It looks like Batman's gonna kind of be solving crimes. I feel like this is gonna be a slower roll a slower picture akin to the Joker or just Joker I guess it's called I don't know if it's set in the same universe. What do I base that off of? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's just a hunch which is a dangerous thing to have often especially when you're reviewing a two-minute trailer that had a lot of fades to black and slow kind of logos coming up so it was probably no more than 45 seconds of shots. Batmobile looked cool. I haven't really had issues with any of the Batmobiles. I'm partial to the old one just because no reason at all. Nostalgia I guess. I don't know. I think this is gonna be fine. I need to see more information. So there was my hot take on the Batman. If you like this video please hit that like. That does something to the algorithm I guess. It gets it all hot inside. Make sure to smash that subscribe button. Do a take your grappling hook and just just smash it to pieces. You know like Batman did to that guy's face. Do that to the subscribe button and we'll see if we just can't move the needle a little bit. There's a lot better content on this channel I promise you and we'll hopefully see you around. Thanks for watching the video. I try to put out new stuff on a weekly basis so make sure to subscribe if you haven't already. I have a second channel full of more shenanigans and I'm also on Twitch now. So there's a lot of variety a lot of options and hopefully you can find these channels via links on this video itself if I did my job correctly. Otherwise they might be in the description below or you can just visit the channel page. Alright take care.
