| Did everyone already use up there backlash on Spiderman? |
What I don't get is,,,,, After a fantastic Batman trilogy, there's all this talk about a Batman reboot so soon,, and everyone seems to be fine with that, everyone seems to think that's ok!!
Yet when Spiderman came out last month,, a new reboot after 5 years,,, after the disastrous Spiderman 3, (which lets be honest, left the series no direction to go in except back to square 1),,,,,, everyone, critics and fans alike started crying like little girls,,,WWWAAAA,,, WHY ?? It's TOO SOOON,, NOOOO More

| Too much competition- Why so serious? |
Only one problem with superhero franchise: Release one per year and forget 3D. It's great we had SR,SM:3,TDK in 2006,'07 and '08 (also IM). 2010 had one superhero IM2. Now it's getting complicated: 2011 saw 3: Thor, Green Lantern and Captain America and more and more complicated: Spidey, Dark Knight and Superman and Avengers all in 2012. Please be patient, studios and distributers! More

To me this seems like a smart thing to do. Instead of fucking up the Nolan Bat-universe (Like Schumacher fucked up the Burton Bat-universe) they give it a new approach. It was going to happen anyway, if there is someone out there that really thought or hoped that WB would stick to the Nolan universe forever and ever-ever, well smell the cofee and get over it!
don't think Batman Forever and Batman and Robin were terrible because of Schumacher, it was a greedy studio wan More

y don't see a problem with this at alln's Bat films have been amazing but that doesn't mean other's can't have a different take on the character. The character's been around for 70 odd years and there is so much material out there for film-makers to use so I don't see why we can't have another trilogy of films albeit with a slightly different artistic sensibility.
thought I was the only one. I don't want to see the Nolan series carried on without Nolan, it makes no sense if More

I've seen this on other sites and it being reported differently, not as a complete new film reboot, as "re-boot Batman within Justice League". I mean, it pretty much has to happen for a JLA film.
I take it to mean that the next time we see Batman will be in JLA, and obviously he will be tweaked from previous incarnation. More

Tim Burton should get together with Keaton and Nicholson and make The Dark Knight Returns Fincher would be a good director for the reboot, he sure can handle dark.
Only problem is in Burton's bat-verse, Joker's dead!!!

the way I see it there are two options, we can have a total reboot after TDKR that will be more camp and light so as to fit in with a Justice League universe or we can have other directors trying to tamper with Nolan's universe by making sequels that will possibly lack a lot of continuity. I'm happy enough with the reboot and sure if I don't like it I will always have Nolan's trilogy More

I've always said JLA should be done in 3 parts original members in 1st 1 Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Wonder Woman & Martian Manhunter & choice out of Green Arrow, Hawkman/Hawkwoman & Black Canary. Then Supes joins up for 2nd & Bats joins for the 3rd that way you bring something new to each film. More

I like the idea of a JLA film but they should concentrate on the other members for now (The Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow etc) then in a few years when those have been done (properly) get them together for JLA that way if Batman needs reworking (even if just for the JLA film) Nolan's films won't be as fresh in our minds and they can take their time perfecting the JLA More

I have absolutely no problem with this whatsoever. No one complained when Joel Schumacher rebooted it...until afterwards when they realised how bad it was. I agree up to a point that if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but Batman Returns is an awesome film. What needs to be remembered is that a reboot isn't necessarily another origin story. I think that's been well and truly covered. All we need now is various writers, directors and actors telling the stories of different episodes in Batman's life More

If they do it right, I'm actually okay with this. As excited as I am to see Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises, I'm looking forward to seeing Batman properly reincarnated in his gothic and dark style, as criffle said.
If it's handled RIGHT and taken seriously, but not too seriously (ie Nolan's films), it could be something that could hope to live up to BATMAN (1989) and B:TAS.
A JLA movie could be preposterous, though. Too many different styles clashing with each-other... if it's ever made More

I suspect this is to do with the recasting of The Joker. WB won't recast someone out of respect for Ledger in the continuation of Nolan's films, but not being able to use such a central character must be a problem. By rebooting it they get to recast the Joker again without 'replacing' Ledger. More
