Trailer is decent enough. I dig Keaton in this role and its nice that Taylor Kitsch is still getting work (lol). Also I think the director is talented (L.I.E. , 12 & Holding and Kill the Messenger ) so I 'll definitely be checking this out in September .

Thanks for posting this. I saw it earlier today and wanted to post it, but real life was a little too crazy.

I agree it looks decent enough. Nothing that hasn't been done many times before, but obviously I love seeing Michael Keaton getting to be all badass especially at his age. (It's sort of funny that he looks in better shape now than when he did the first Batman film.) Plus, Dylan O'Brien seems like he has what it takes to be a big star someday, and this looks like it might be a nice step in that direction.

The release date isn't the best, but I'm hoping that it actually turns out to be a good strategy. This film would probably be killed by bigger films in summer and would probably be overshadowed by Oscar hopefuls and whatnot if it opened in October or later, so September seems like it could be a good time for it. Looking at what else is opening around that time, so far I think it could do well enough. It will probably be number one again the week that this opens, but I would expect this to be number two. Perhaps it has the potential to be a breakout hit, so I could see more of badass Michael Keaton.
