Not really a fan of the Burton films but the portrayal of Gotham, particularly the expressionist aesthetic of Returns, feels like it was ripped straight out of a comic so I'm disappointed we're still going with this gloomy, self-serious approach. Are these films too afraid to embrace any kitsch after Schumacher? We had a trilogy supposedly grounded in realism, a film where Batman literally killed people, and now we're doing more of the same? I get that Batman is a darker character than most superheroes, but it's tiresome as the third incarnation within the last 10 years to be so tonally similar. Wanted to hear more of Pattinson because I'm rooting for him but his only line rivals "no, I came back to stop you" in terms of teeth-grinding cheese.

I actually like the emo Bruce Wayne look. Still not sold on Battinson. Riddler, Penguin and particularly Zoe Kravitz's Catwoman looks good.
I wanted the dark aesthetic but somehow not this. Will wait for the full trailer.

Personally, as someone who has been very tired of Batman and didn’t really care about this, I’m actually pretty excited now. Hopefully the film does deliver on the detective story angle that it’s promising.

WOW this looks quite good. Loved the teaser (and the music). Hopefully Dano crushes it as the Riddler.

Doesn't Batman usually have eye makeup? It's just that it usually magically disappears when he takes his mask/cowl off.

Kinda looks and feels like a live action version of the Arkham video games. Not a bad thing per se, but I'd be interested in seeing a more story-intensive trailer (after it's safe to resume filming obviously).
It does bother me that we keep getting more and more versions of Batman, each one trying to out-brood the last and yet we're not allowed a modicum of earnestness in fucking Superman anymore.
Also, are any of these films ever gonna stop pretending that a trained ninja in military gear punching a lowlife thug 48 times is badass?

Okay, I liked what I saw here. Looks very atmospheric, noir-ish and has the feeling of a pure detective story (like, say, Se7en or something) which is pretty good.
I actually hated Battinson's emo look although he looks fine with the suit on.
And Farrell... He's totally unrecognizable!!!

Imagine thinking this didn’t look fantastic?

Robert Pattinson can certainly rock a smoky eye.

Watched the teaser again and I forget that Jeffery Wright is playing Gordon. Fantastic casting right there. (He definitely has big shoes to fill but I think he'll do a good job here) Love how it is coming across as more of a detective story (instead of a cgi /explosion fest)

That was a sick fucking trailer.
Like I’ve said, Matt Reeves is 4/4 for me, and this looks like it’ll continue the trend. Pattinson looks great here too. I can’t believe how unrecognizable Farrell is.

If you told me David Fincher directed this film, I'd believe you. Got a lot of Se7en/The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo vibes from the teaser.
I'm in.

Looks pretty dour and abysmal. Almost like a fanmade Gotham inspired tv movie. I'm very disappointed but let's not judge from a trailer

I can’t believe how unrecognizable Farrell is. Matt Reeves is a tremendous director but his woke comments have pushed away any excitement for the movie. Hopefully he actually delivers since Cloverfield > TDK

Jokes aside, though, I'm actually very intrigued and I like that they made a sweet trailer off of less than 1/3 of the film actually being shot. Really like the mood and that beatdown was badass.

I was going to make a mash-up trailer between the two films, but I guess I was beaten to the punch.
