One must assume they have one of those gigantic anti-flood cisterns under the city that can fit an insane volume of water. ...Hm, though if it does exist, why where their no bombs planted in it to plunge the city above into it like a giant sink hole? It's just, kind of a logical next step for a Batman universe where Gotham has one.
Not to mention people surviving point blank explosions with no apparent injuries not once but twice. Also Batman falling from that building and hitting that bridge/car/ground was beyond ludicrous. Do they know Batman doesn’t have superpowers?
I was actually thinking Mad Hatter, a detective movie trying to find and capture someone with "mind control" would be fun. Or a propper Bane, brains to match the Bat first and brawn second. Edit: Batman just has a lot of good rogues
The film marks the first time since 1966's Batman: The Movie that *the Joker, the Penguin, the Riddler, and Catwoman have all appeared in a live-action movie together.*
And this one's actually good. I tried to watch the 66 one because I thought it would be funny like B&R. I turned it off with half an hour left because it was just too much awfulness.
Well thats funny because the first episode from the animated series was the man-bat episode and batman debut was him sitting normal in the batcave reading the News.
Yeah, apart from Batman, everyone else's costumes were pretty sh*tty in this movie. I guess they didn't think an authentic Catwoman suit or a Riddler costume wouldn't fit into this universe.

The joke made about Bruce's lack of attention to non-vengeance related things like his accountants is sort of the point of the movie. He was so wrapped up in finding a (self) justified outlet for his rage that he eschewed the actual things that would help the city on a larger scale.
But it concludes on the note that being a _hero_ is what he needs to be. Which is growth from a vigilante seeking revenge, but it didn't seem to ever imply that he should have been a better Wayne

@@codyeasonBGR you're totally right about that. But come on, it's new, the batman version here is starting out. You still have to give a bit of credit. There were still a lot of scenes where he solved it even on the spot.
@@codyeasonBGR I mean, I think that's the point. It's a young Batman, around year two. He actually loses in this film, the city is flooded. I think the movie is solid. Not the best but it does has a GREAT potential for sequel, and I think that was what they aimed for. It's hard to make a perfect Batman movie in the first one when there have been so many in the past. But preparing the field is good.

When the riddler said "thanks for all your comments" i had to physically stop myself from yelling out into the theater "AND THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING ME ON PATREON"
I really liked the director’s approach for this movie, making it for like a detective style and not heavily relying too much on CGI. Yes it did feel like a long movie, but I liked it.
It's not even interesting in the detective aspect...I felt like I'd rather watch Arkham Asylum batvision detective work then anything in this movie. All I know is I was asleep through at least half of it...that is truth.
What was the point of the car chase, except to shoehorn the Batmobile into an already 3 hr movie? And I could've gone without Colin Farrell's Penguin. It's a fun ride but I wouldn't say it's the best superhero movie this year, or the best Batman movie in the last 5 years.
I feel like the director stretched it out to slow it down but didn't have the artistry to make it worthwhile. I got bored, watched it in 2 parts, and didn't finish it. It was just slow for the sake of being slow and felt self-indulgent. It was no Interstellar.
I love that batman was so bad at his job in this movie that riddler thought they were working together and was shook- eth when batman didn't praise him
That's what insane people do, they think they are friends with someone because they simply imagined it to be so, they can't see any other reason for the person to do those things.
Overall, I liked the movie. What I did not like was the Joker cameo. I'd much rather see villains, like the Mad Hatter, that haven't been seen in the live action films yet.
I agree but I also understand Reeves position. Like imagine being a huge Batman fan, and finally getting to direct a movie of him and then think about not using one of his most notable villains. That being said I wouldn't mind like 5 movies in Reeves universe. Fucking do 10. Every villain gets a movie
Poison Ivy would be interesting. The lush greenery she tends to surround herself with would contrast well with the industrial grime of this Gotham, and her use of plants would need some forensics - and Bruce might have to research a subject to solve the case.
feel like liking this movie depends on whether you want to see action or an actual batman story. I think this is one of the best portrayals of Batman actually being the gritty detective he should be instead of beefcake punchy man in suit though there's a lot of things they could've done better, i still love it
Except he doesn't solve anything and is wrong more often than not. Thankfully that one cop he was with near the end of the movie was there to solve one of the "riddles" for Batman or I'm pretty sure he would have missed the end of the movie entirely.
@@johnmyers4555 the whole movie was about him solving puzzles and pieces with gordon just like the comics, if he didn't solve anything the story wouldn't have even moved on so idk what ur talking about. He's a year 2 unexperienced batman up against THE RIDDLER for the first time, one of his smartests villains from his rouges gallery
Thanks for noticing the bit about the accountants. I really wanted an extra scene with Bruce Wayne ordering a forensic audit on the Wayne Trust. This is probably the only movie I know that would have been improved with the inclusion of accounting.
@@danilima6970 it would fit, but everything else is also important, so it would just add to the runtime. I reckon the movie did have it, but it just slowed the pacing down.
Well, yeah. In fiction, it always rains when you're feeling sad and angsty, especially if you're the protagonist in a story and it looks like the fight is turning against you, so you can emerge victorious from said fight and have the rain wash away your adversary's blood from your clothes. And it helps hide your tears when raindrops cascade down your face.
@@roberttail1676 Huh? All movies are inclusive now and Druig was one of the white males so why would anti-inclusiveness people hate him? I really hope you're joking

@@Born2drool It's a play on the namd Gerard Way, who is the lead singer for My Chemical Romance, a band thats considered emo, which is what Bruce Wayne is in this movie

I mean truly some of the most genuinely entertaining/honesy channels on TH-cam about the slowly dying culture of ‘big-popularity’ movies. Keep pushing these timeless beauties out.
This was the first take on the Bruce/Alfred relationship that wasn't totally perfect and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I look forward to more Robert Pattinson Batman movies.
This movie did something that we haven't seen Batman do anytime in movies like Walking among common people, going and coming like normal people through the doors, Doing things in areas filled with lights and for one really behaving like a person
Fun fact- despite the idea most people have in their heads of each city, it actually rains more here in NY than it does in Seattle each year. So, points for accuracy 👌
@@jakubrejak1114 Ummmm yeah, most of the time anyone that wanted in ... just walked in. Did you find the conversations with the bouncers to be thrilling?
Thank you for recognizing Batman is a truck driver murderer. Probably 5 or more people are burning to their deaths and Batman just slowly walks over to the Penguin while sitting upside down in a car and is like "gotcha".
That didn't happen. You saw the trucks burning, not the cabs. The drivers escaped. IGN already did a video on this. The Batman isn't responsible for any deaths in the chase scene, it just looks more exciting than it really was.
I didn't even know/realize that Colin Farrell was Penguin until watching this video. I was shocked. Pattinson did a great Batman, but his Bruce Wayne was terrible, like unbearable. I am hoping that had more to do with the writing than him and that they bring the real Bruce Wayne back to life.
@@shaunstevens4292 Looking at images of Colin Farrell and Colin Farrell's 'The Penguin' next to eachother, I still have difficulty seeing it's really him. Top class makeup and acting.
Here's a compliment for the movie that few people mention: It had one of the best Hollywood car chases ever! It felt grounded and somewhat realistic, quite tense. The Batmobile itself had a horror element to it with that roaring engine at the start, a proper extension of Batman himself! Making it my favorite Batmobile already despite it's simplistic design
@@diegopansini3152 Well, first of all i did not like the way it was initiated, it felt forced. Also when batman revs the batmobile and kind of does a false start it totaly looked like he stalled the car (quite a number of people got that impression) and the chase itself wasnt particularly all that exciting and the score wasnt, how do i say it, in its full might. Still my favourite batman movie tho. (Sorry if my english was bad)
I for one would like to call attention to the incredible fight/action scenes in this movie. No shakey handheld camera, minimal cuts, and actual martial arts
I love how the movie hinted that if Bruce had spent a little less time on vigilante action and a little more time managing his finances, which would include his father's Renewal fund, he could have prevented, or at least detected, the rampart corruption. It's an apt critique of the billionaires of our real world, many of whom are obsessed with moonshot projects to revolutionize our world when what we actually need from them is responsible behavior and basic, boring philanthropy
Very well put. "The Batman" has the most down-to-earth Gotham City portrayal apart from "Joker" [or MAYBE, arguably, also apart from "Birds of Prey"]. I also love how the movie establishes a theory hitherto not seen in any live action movie but mentioned in DC comic-books, namely that it might be the vigilante Batman himself who ironically attracts the very kind of supervillains only he can step up against to come to Gotham City in the first place.
@@elfsieben1450 Nolan’s trilogy does that. At the end of Batman Begins, Gordon tells Batman about escalation. And his warning came true in the form of Joker. That’s literally what the Joker was in the Dark Knight. Joker was small time before Batman “changed things forever.” The Joker would never have gotten so much done had Batman not hammered the Mob to the point of desperation and turning to the Joker for help.
The Batman : He's been working in Gotham for 2 years now , every criminal in gotham fears the batman when they see the light hit the sky Also some random thugs : Who the hEll aRE YoU suPPosEd to bE ?
Honestly, the Joker deleted scene was genius having him blurred and a confidante for solving others mental game. Would work well in the movie if they kept it in and removed the tease at the end
So my thought is, the second half of the final act is not necessary. The roddler is caught, everything is basically wrapped up. The ending would've made more sense if the roddler escaped some how and was the one that said the im vengeance line instead of the random. However, with the joker scene in the movie that ending actually plays a way bigger role. Because with jokers examination we see what batman really stands for currently vs what he should. My thoughts of course but the scene not in the movie very much hurts the ending
Iam surprised that he didn't mention Batman's loudest boots yet with which he can easily sneak up behind catwomen who can hear slightest of sound like a cat and ninja escape without anyone noticing.... 😂😂
Actually his shoes are ninja quiet unless he's using his signature Bat Clankers for dramatic effect. What you foolishly thought was a flaw in the sound design is in fact a masterful psy-op that will instantly send Batman's opponents into terrified trembles.
I went and saw it a second time in theaters just for the Batmobile scene. That into and then the car chase. Absolute magic. You felt that car, it was incredible.
The fact that Batman intentionally lets the Batmobile stall JUST to give the Penguin a chance to get into his own car, and thus give him the chance to have the thrill of the chase/hunt, was kinda awesome. At least no one died on the highway...just plenty of fender bender claims, is all.
This was a solid movie. Robert Pattinson was not my favorite Batman/Bruce Wayne but I really liked how the movie ended. This Batman realized that he needs to be more than just revenge and fear. I'm looking forward to the sequel.
I agree, though sadly after reading your comment, my warped mind immediately put an image in my head of The Batman chucking paper towel rolls at Gotham citizens
I think this film was genius, it doesn’t glorify Batman, it shows his flaws of being a vigilante and how he could have actually helped people by being billionaire Bruce Wayne and that he has much to grow. People that didn’t like the movie are either too obsessed with action focused flicks, have low attention span or just didn’t get the point being made, although I agree some scenes felt like filler.
in other batman movies he uses his money to donate to charity to, he also doesn't kill people and is able to solve crimes without a carpet dude. Also you're able to tell what's going on.
The hairiest thing about the Gotham Police Mustache Division was that they never charged the Batman for killing a truckload of truck drivers while he attempted to solve that rat with wings riddle.
That's a funny bit tho... but I think the street cams weren't online at that point. Batman and Gordon didn't take Penguin in, they just let him walk. So they can fight another time.
The penguin shot at a police officer, had a body in the trunk and then killed a bunch of drivers in a chase and doesn't even get arrested. When the chase scene ends I just laughed out loud
Remember Penguin / Oswald Cobblepot is one the richest guys in Gotham besides Bruce Wayne and Roman Sionis / Black Mask, and since Gotham is corrupted, he must bribed the GCPD to not make him to be their prisoner or putting him in Arkham Asylum.
What I don't like about this Batman is how they shove down the viewer's throat that this is a different Batman. Nolan's Batman was effortless in being different but this Batman is working so hard to be not the usual Batman.
I loved the part where the Penguin just goes: the two best detectives in Gotham and they can't figure out that it's LA rata and not EL rata?? These dudes definitely skipped high-school Spanish xD
Here's the thing, people hate it and love it in equal measures. But, what people don't understand is that this is a slow burner of a film. The sequels to come will expand and broaden the batman character in both the character of Batman and Bruce Wayne. By film three we will be be gifted a Batman more developed, more rounded and more grounded in a world that we haven't seen yet. We will get a strong Bruce Wayne, a conflict ed Bruce Wayne and we will get a more developed and experienced Batman. I can't wait. To me this movie screams "watch what comes next" and me, I'm 100% down for it
All that doesn't matter. The story is king. And the fact is that the second half was disappointing. Riddler's puzzles meant nothing,nor did he put up much of a fight.
@@umairarifshaikh5095 I still liked it but it could've been better, I agree. It looks amazing and I like all the actors involved and love the dark zodiac/seven-esque tone. But I will admit I was slightly letdown, I thought it would be a little bit more... enthralling, I guess, rather than somewhat plodding the majority of the way through. I'll be interested to see what they do differently in the sequel
There is a slow burner then there is taking so long for something to happen its basically stopped. Its a 3 hour film that definitely should have been 2
@@hamishreid8791 I feel you.. I like it, but at the same time, I'm not 💯 sure.. I just know there is a lot more to come. This wasn't Batman, it was more so a guy in a suit trying to become something and still finding his way, which is why I say over the next two films we will see a more full rounded and developed character in both Bruce Wayne and Batman, the Batman we are used to
Should have mentioned his back pack used to belong to Hermione Granger. How did he fit that huge suit of armor, gadgets and thigh fanny pack in that little back pack????
I think he wore the bat suit, and wore regular clothes over it, and put the cowl, and utility belt, and harpoons in the back pack. Oh, and his eye makeup.
He didn’t. The “drifter” outfit is very bulky, and he already has the eye makeup on when he’s wearing it. He’s probably wearing most of the suit underneath that, with just obvious bits line the cowl, cape and gloves in the backpack. That also explains how he changes in and out of the suit so quickly.
3:03 This is a completely different universe, HT Though it would be cool to pretend that this is a prequel to him joining the Justice League and all that other stuff
While I really like the movie, I do get why people point out that the "world's greatest detective" only figures most of the stuff out thanks to others sort of figuring it out for him.
@W.D. Gaster The emo personality was not required and the detective works lack Batman's involvement and was solving riddles is not that much of a detective work. The movie was mid for me.
@@banana-uo3be Robert Pattinson is 35 years old. Batman has been training to be a ninja detective nonstop for 25 years, and he has nothing to show for it?

I would love to see Firefly or even Man-Bat in this universe. It would give this Batman an enemy that would push him to further improve and develop his suits gliding capabilities. A flying villain would also allow for the potential development of the batwing.
No joke about the fact that despite Batman being unstoppable and invincible, he takes a 1-5 score at the end of the day against the Riddler? The only thing he stopped Riddler from doing was kill Bruce Wayne, and that was by accident!
When I heard Pattinson was to be the next Batman I groaned BUT I genuinely love his portrayal. Keaton will always be my sentimental favourite but Battinson is perfect. It didn't feel like 3 hours to me tbh. Great review guys, I needed the laugh 😆
Rob's portrayal is literally the most comic accurate after Affleck. I didn't think Affleck could be beaten but Rob did it. it's like watching Year One. matt reeves is a genius
I believe they were trying to disguise the fact that Pattinson was wearing some massive chonkers for boots to up his height. That first walk out from the shadows? You can't hide that gait from me! ;)
Actually, Italian names almost never end in a consonant sound. "Falcon" would be the French or Spanish pronunciation. And it would have to be "Falconi" to end with the long "e" sound. Even many Italian-Americans get it wrong.
Happy to be one of the few subscribers. Love the levity of your honest trailers. The blank screen gag was funny. And the Aw, c'mon line was hilarious!!.
A realistic clayface would be someone who uses heavy makeup or 'clay' to impersonate people by sculpting their faces onto himself. Or since its current day, deepfake will also do.
This literally ruined the movie for me. Bruce Wayne is a child hood prodigy, a genius. It doesn't matter if he has been on the job for only two years. The person behind the mask should be able to figure out more than one riddle without the help from the entire cast.
It's crazy how fast Pattinson became my new favourite live action Batman. I knew he was a great actor, but goddamn. This film and all of the performances in it absolutely blew me away.

Overall, I liked the movie. What I did not like was the Joker cameo. I'd much rather see villains, like the Mad Hatter, that haven't been seen in the live action films yet.
Thank you, i feel the same way about it
Joker won't be the villain in batman 2 so no need to worry
Or Talon. I actually thought that Talon was in this movie because The Riddler’s goggles looked like his lol.
I agree but I also understand Reeves position. Like imagine being a huge Batman fan, and finally getting to direct a movie of him and then think about not using one of his most notable villains. That being said I wouldn't mind like 5 movies in Reeves universe. Fucking do 10. Every villain gets a movie
Agreed, lets other lesser know Batman villains shine like Scarecrow, The Ventroquilist or even Hush.
For a sequel I would love to see Scarface/Ventriloquist or Mad Hatter, both would be fantastic in this iteration if Gotham
My favorites from TAS were Scarface/Ventriloquist and also Clayface. He would be a great Rogue.
Poison Ivy would be interesting. The lush greenery she tends to surround herself with would contrast well with the industrial grime of this Gotham, and her use of plants would need some forensics - and Bruce might have to research a subject to solve the case.
@@SunlessNick Risky. It would have to be done incredibly well to not seem boring or extremely memey
Absolutely! Lesser known villains that stay with the dark city mood. I could see Two-Face and Hush being featured
I think a tragic mr freeze story could also work really well in this version of batman
feel like liking this movie depends on whether you want to see action or an actual batman story. I think this is one of the best portrayals of Batman actually being the gritty detective he should be instead of beefcake punchy man in suit though there's a lot of things they could've done better, i still love it
Agree I liked the detective elements ;)
Except he doesn't solve anything and is wrong more often than not. Thankfully that one cop he was with near the end of the movie was there to solve one of the "riddles" for Batman or I'm pretty sure he would have missed the end of the movie entirely.
@@johnmyers4555 the whole movie was about him solving puzzles and pieces with gordon just like the comics, if he didn't solve anything the story wouldn't have even moved on so idk what ur talking about. He's a year 2 unexperienced batman up against THE RIDDLER for the first time, one of his smartests villains from his rouges gallery
This movie had almost no detective elements at all. Batman doesn't solve anything in it all he does is react to revelations.
Thanks for noticing the bit about the accountants. I really wanted an extra scene with Bruce Wayne ordering a forensic audit on the Wayne Trust. This is probably the only movie I know that would have been improved with the inclusion of accounting.
Agreed. Cut that in instead of some "El Rata Alata" stuff.

And it helps hide your tears when raindrops cascade down your face.

Thank you for recognizing Batman is a truck driver murderer. Probably 5 or more people are burning to their deaths and Batman just slowly walks over to the Penguin while sitting upside down in a car and is like "gotcha".
That didn't happen. You saw the trucks burning, not the cabs. The drivers escaped. IGN already did a video on this. The Batman isn't responsible for any deaths in the chase scene, it just looks more exciting than it really was.
I still can't believe Colin Farrel played the Penguin, he did really well. So did Pattinson with the Batman role.
the only one who kinda sucked was zoe kravitz. everyone else did top shelf work, maybe no more so than colin farrel
I didn't even know/realize that Colin Farrell was Penguin until watching this video. I was shocked. Pattinson did a great Batman, but his Bruce Wayne was terrible, like unbearable. I am hoping that had more to do with the writing than him and that they bring the real Bruce Wayne back to life.

Here's a compliment for the movie that few people mention: It had one of the best Hollywood car chases ever! It felt grounded and somewhat realistic, quite tense. The Batmobile itself had a horror element to it with that roaring engine at the start, a proper extension of Batman himself! Making it my favorite Batmobile already despite it's simplistic design
The trailer made it look like the batmobile chase will be sick but for me it was one of the low points of the movie.
@@davidhrzenjak Sorry to hear that. What were your expectations?
@@diegopansini3152 Well, first of all i did not like the way it was initiated, it felt forced. Also when batman revs the batmobile and kind of does a false start it totaly looked like he stalled the car (quite a number of people got that impression) and the chase itself wasnt particularly all that exciting and the score wasnt, how do i say it, in its full might.
Still my favourite batman movie tho.
(Sorry if my english was bad)
@@davidhrzenjak Huh, I get that. I saw many people thinking the car was stalled too
It was confusing more than anything the way it was shot in close ups
Thank you for mentioning the inconsistency in the Falcone pronunciation. I was afraid I was the only one who noticed it.
I for one would like to call attention to the incredible fight/action scenes in this movie. No shakey handheld camera, minimal cuts, and actual martial arts
Those action scenes were a bad copy paste of the dark knight series' action scenes. Even Patisson's moves were copied from Bale's.
one of them ripped straight out of equilibrium
Incredible? Nice, where are your from? 1920s?
Actual martial arts? Did we watch the same movie? He looked like a corrupt cop beating someone with a night stick
@@user-sx1dn8xw3d Except they didn't look like garbage? All of Nolan's fight scenes were laughably bad :/
I love how the movie hinted that if Bruce had spent a little less time on vigilante action and a little more time managing his finances, which would include his father's Renewal fund, he could have prevented, or at least detected, the rampart corruption. It's an apt critique of the billionaires of our real world, many of whom are obsessed with moonshot projects to revolutionize our world when what we actually need from them is responsible behavior and basic, boring philanthropy
Very well put.
"The Batman" has the most down-to-earth Gotham City portrayal apart from "Joker" [or MAYBE, arguably, also apart from "Birds of Prey"].
I also love how the movie establishes a theory hitherto not seen in any live action movie but mentioned in DC comic-books, namely that it might be the vigilante Batman himself who ironically attracts the very kind of supervillains only he can step up against to come to Gotham City in the first place.
@@elfsieben1450
Nolan’s trilogy does that. At the end of Batman Begins, Gordon tells Batman about escalation. And his warning came true in the form of Joker.
That’s literally what the Joker was in the Dark Knight. Joker was small time before Batman “changed things forever.” The Joker would never have gotten so much done had Batman not hammered the Mob to the point of desperation and turning to the Joker for help.
You are reading too much into it.
Lol, none of them are obsessed with revolutionizing our world... Every billionaire is focused on one thing: staying rich by keeping you poor.
This is why Mark Cuban is cool
The killing of Bruce’s parents at the end had me laughing. I love this channel.
We have seen it over and over, yet it explains the origin.
This is the most Batman movie ever in that it takes a story completely unrelated to the Joker and yet still brings him into the fold
The Batman : He's been working in Gotham for 2 years now , every criminal in gotham fears the batman when they see the light hit the sky
Also some random thugs : Who the hEll aRE YoU suPPosEd to bE ?
A good explanation I saw from this is that the train they are arriving from is from Bludhaven, and they aren’t Gothamites
Movie's set during Halloween, they assumed he was just a random nobody and not THE bat. After the beatdown, the thugs say, "Holy sh*t, it's him!"
They apparently didn't get the memo, right Mr. Fox? (I know. Different universe.)
Batman I’m the reason criminals are afraid to go out at night. Random thugs: lmao, you see this guy.
@@midget420 they think I’m hiding in the shadows… oh wait I am
Honestly, the Joker deleted scene was genius having him blurred and a confidante for solving others mental game. Would work well in the movie if they kept it in and removed the tease at the end
So my thought is, the second half of the final act is not necessary. The roddler is caught, everything is basically wrapped up. The ending would've made more sense if the roddler escaped some how and was the one that said the im vengeance line instead of the random. However, with the joker scene in the movie that ending actually plays a way bigger role. Because with jokers examination we see what batman really stands for currently vs what he should. My thoughts of course but the scene not in the movie very much hurts the ending
nah. it would've completely distracted from The Riddler's grandiose finale. The Joker is a character that was literally created to steal the show.

Do an honest trailer on the godfather trilogy since it's their 50th anniversary please
I think this film was genius, it doesn’t glorify Batman, it shows his flaws of being a vigilante and how he could have actually helped people by being billionaire Bruce Wayne and that he has much to grow. People that didn’t like the movie are either too obsessed with action focused flicks, have low attention span or just didn’t get the point being made, although I agree some scenes felt like filler.
in other batman movies he uses his money to donate to charity to, he also doesn't kill people and is able to solve crimes without a carpet dude. Also you're able to tell what's going on.
I didn't like it because the writing isn't very good.
The hairiest thing about the Gotham Police Mustache Division was that they never charged the Batman for killing a truckload of truck drivers while he attempted to solve that rat with wings riddle.
Why would Batman be charged, Penguin was the one who caused the crash
That's a funny bit tho... but I think the street cams weren't online at that point. Batman and Gordon didn't take Penguin in, they just let him walk. So they can fight another time.
The penguin shot at a police officer, had a body in the trunk and then killed a bunch of drivers in a chase and doesn't even get arrested. When the chase scene ends I just laughed out loud
Remember Penguin / Oswald Cobblepot is one the richest guys in Gotham besides Bruce Wayne and Roman Sionis / Black Mask, and since Gotham is corrupted, he must bribed the GCPD to not make him to be their prisoner or putting him in Arkham Asylum.
Why would he be charged for something he never did?

Should have mentioned his back pack used to belong to Hermione Granger. How did he fit that huge suit of armor, gadgets and thigh fanny pack in that little back pack????
I think he wore the bat suit, and wore regular clothes over it, and put the cowl, and utility belt, and harpoons in the back pack. Oh, and his eye makeup.
He didn’t. The “drifter” outfit is very bulky, and he already has the eye makeup on when he’s wearing it. He’s probably wearing most of the suit underneath that, with just obvious bits line the cowl, cape and gloves in the backpack.
That also explains how he changes in and out of the suit so quickly.

It makes me so mad every time.
Still, Falconi is much better than “falcon”
Well they are Americans.
Yeah, but Italian names often got butchered and changed after coming to America

Happy to be one of the few subscribers. Love the levity of your honest trailers. The blank screen gag was funny. And the Aw, c'mon line was hilarious!!.
4:35 don't care, that was a great entrance.
My list of villains I want to see in this universe
One: Scarecrow
Two: Mr Freeze
Three: Deathstroke
Four: Bane
Five: Clayface
ra’s al ghul? no?
A realistic clayface would be someone who uses heavy makeup or 'clay' to impersonate people by sculpting their faces onto himself. Or since its current day, deepfake will also do.
@@ofAwxen yes!!!!!!!
Been looking forward to this Honest Trailer for a while.
we all have bro. today is finally here
Ok you owe me a keyboard for the "ok just gonna walk it off" #2:15 comment that made me spit coffee all over it...
Dang, was hoping for bat-stares montage. Great ep regardless!
The worlds greatest detective?! He was given most of the answers lol
This literally ruined the movie for me. Bruce Wayne is a child hood prodigy, a genius. It doesn't matter if he has been on the job for only two years. The person behind the mask should be able to figure out more than one riddle without the help from the entire cast.
Omg that daredevil joke i laughed for a solid minute 🤣 😂
"Gerard Wayne" damn near killed me, I had to pause the video I was laughing so hard
What's the joke I didn't get it
@@mariaathena7910 I'm not Ok with that
Unfortunately, it makes me think of My Immortal. Which in context might make the joke even better.
@@mariaathena7910 Gerard Way is the lead singer of my chemical romance (popular emo band)
agree. the best joke in honest trailers in a while
It's crazy how fast Pattinson became my new favourite live action Batman. I knew he was a great actor, but goddamn. This film and all of the performances in it absolutely blew me away.
