    Batfleck had an origin story in BvS being the death of Robin and Wayne Manor being burnt down all caused by Leto's Joker (Snyder confirmed this multiple times). This would result in a brutal hardened version of Batman who's been at it for 20 years, corrupted by Gotham's toxic aura..

      Exactly. Funny thing is, early Batman killed. Older Batman killed (the Joker) which fits Keaton's and Affleck's versions respectively.
      And say what you want, Affleck's Batman is the one who fought like Comic book Batman, and used detective skills.
      Keaton's Bat, my favorite fought sort of like a comic book character and he definitely used detective skills to figure out how the Joker was poisoning the cosmetics.
      I don't know why people act like Bale's bat was the first to use detective skills (did he really use any?)

    The character from the comics is just so incredibly hard to do.
    I loved the BvS version. This was the guy they claimed he was, he was on the street for over 20 years, had lost everything, became bitter.
    If it wasn't for his willingness to accept the death of criminals, he would have been perfect. His assault on the Warehouse was one of a kind. I guess they had to include that to show that he was pretty much serious about killing Superman. Let's not forget that the first Batman in the comics was also ok with letting some criminals die. Why he was replaced? Because DC panicked seeing how much Marvel earned. They tried to make him more fun which was ... bad. Also he was too old. In order to make a series of movies you need actors and a concept that would play the role for at least 10 years.
    While he does have a sense of humor in the comics, he would never let anyone see him smile but his closest friends.
    I never bought Bale's representation. He way way too optimistic, almost like the caped crusader from the 60s. In the comics it was all about crazy alien monsters, but that was too expensive, so they made it pure comedy instead. The 40s versions were more about him fighting normal criminals.
    I find it sad that Afleck had to go, but it was just not gonna happen. It would have worked if the Justice Leauge series would have been released like it was originally planned, but there would not have been many Batman films in addition. Afleck was just too old to begin with and after a while the grumpy old fart won't work anymore. Even in the comics they had to take away 10-15 years at some point and give him a fresh start.

    Again, I really like Bale BUT THIS GUY RIGHT HERE is a significant part of why there was success. This character but more so this actor's portrayal of the character is so good, absolutely no one can come close to it. They went completely different angle because of how damn good THIS GUY DID IT. This though Joker was just a criminal and not a psycho, his acting made people connect to him.

    Every superhero will reboot because the actors get old, and reshowing the old films in the theater wont work because they all over cable and the younger generation relate better to newer actors.

    3:27 they simply weren't confident in Ben and even Gal, so they introduced them with the most popular superhero if not spiderman but at least that DC has. Marvel did it other way, solo films. Black Panther did a cameo and an excellent one because the character is not popular on screen, and that worked. However, it is my opinion that the Snyderverse should never had been done. His style is too dark, and the masses won't relate to that as they already have a precondition mindset of the characters. So you have a remote few who love it and the masses who simply cant connect to it.

    1:09 i think you could or should have gone one step at even 2 before Christian Bale. As much as Christian didn't fail, he was still a massive drop off from previous ones, with far less technology in Hollywood. Ben was a non starter to begin with and Patterson, I didnt like the idea because I knew no way he could be a decent Bruce Wayne. But I decided to watch and I like the angle they took it from, focused more on Batman and more on the troubled Bruce in his younger years with no much focus on it. Patterson has life, it just depends on how the 2nd one is done, if successful they can start having spin offs from that Universe.

And if you count Beyond Will Friedle. 1999 - 01. And Batfleck came about in 2016 with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

    I think it keeps getting rebooted because there's only so many movies that can be made within a certain amount of time and there's only a certain amount of runtime in the movie format. I think Batman and pretty much every other comic book character is better suited for a series format. Imagine a Batman HBO Max series. Plenty of time to develop characters, and tell stories. Very little restrictions. There's too much red tape and too many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to making movies.
