I really wish Matt Reeves directs many more good movies. From his interviews, i can feel his love for cinema and his passion for the art. Hope he makes many more successful movies in the future.
i mean he already did..he have maken one of the best movie trilogy the apes ..than?
@@siyamsadikshocho1143 They should make a new movie called baby doll starring Kiruna Stamell as Mary Louise Dahl
@@siyamsadikshocho1143well, like 2/3 of the trilogy
His version of batman is easily one of the best movies I've ever seen
The Batman is boring. He should focus on more original stories than reboots.
#batmangate reeves stole script from chris wozniak
Bullshit
This man needs to direct more Batman movies, The Batman was amazing!
Loved hearing this! He's so passionate about his movie and Batman. Can't wait for the sequel and spin-offs. Thank you, AFI, for the seminar! 👌🏻
You can just hear and see how passionate he is about filmmaking
Matt is one of my favorite director out there today
Him, Sam Raimi and Chris Nolan are my favorites along with David Fincher
@@BasketCase420 epic choices
Is the full version of this interview posted anywhere? Love this!
let me know if you find it !
Never thought I'd see the day where I finally hear Matt say fuck lmao
Tell me about it. Nolan and Reeves both seem like such squares that channel their dark side on screen so it's such a shock when the curse out of nowhere.
He is Batman Jesus , the godfather of Batman. Not Nolan , it’s reeves. Nolan’s movies are amazing but reeves “gets” batman. He gets the lore and characters more than any other director.
Very Very premature statement to make. At the moment, Reeve's iteration of batman hasn't even grown that much to make a statement like that. Where Nolan excels with Batman is in showing the audience a full chain of events into the creation of this character, and how an early childhood trauma shaped him into who he is. Nolan does a great job displaying the heroic inner nature of this character, even though externally he looks the opposite. Nolan also did a flawless job showing the audience why he is called the Dark Knight. The sacrifices he has to make, even in the face of being victimized falsely. Yet Nolan's Batman unwaveringly does so without hesitation. He's unbreaking in his pursuit of justice and I dare say Nolan elevated the character past what comic books have offered. Due to the ongoing nature of comic books, Batman's journey can never really change, where as Nolan's story allowed the character's arc to close out on a happy note where he was able to overcome his trauma and finally obtain some measure of happiness in his life.
I'd say Nolan understands the character very well.
@@DemonKnight85 It's not a premature statement to make. Christopher Nolan is not some massive Batman fan. Which he even admits himself. And it shows in the depiction of the world, Bruce Wayne specifically, and especially Gotham. He certainly likes the idea of Batman, but never actually captured the world and essence of the character beyond a surface level. Outside of Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan's iteration of Batman is conservative, dull, and lacking in capturing the character from the comics. It's very, very mainstream in it's depiction and also as a film in general.
You're overrating something to the point where it's kind of cringe (as do most folks). Christopher Nolan did nothing great with Batman. Despite being a good filmmaker. Those movies are elevated by good performances and Jonathan Nolan's solid writing.
@@crisp3891 Exactly. Well put
I completely agree - at least based on The Batman
@@crisp3891 Although I think we would all prefer people who are extreme fans of something to pursue working on it, that doesn't mean in itself that someone doesn't have the ability to understanding something more or less than another person. I know Nolan wasn't as much a comic reader as his brother, but I'm sure he obviously had an interest in the character. I will agree with you that Reeves, and more so Tim Burton probably realized the city of Gotham more in line with the comics, but Nolan wasn't going for that anyways. So it was never on the table.
I definitely don't agree with saying that he doesn't capture the character. If anything Nolan sprinkles a heavy dose of Dennis O' Neil and Neil Adams Batman version, with a hint of Frank Miller. Reeves seems to be going heavy Frank Miller. Both represent accurate depictions of Batman. But to say that "Nolan did nothing great with Batman" is just a silly comment to make. Borderline delusional really. And all because his movie was grounded in reality doesn't make it mainstream. Mainstream usually involves watering down material to appease the largest audience possible, and to be honest with you I don't think that idea ever went through Nolan's head once while making his movies. He just had a really good idea for adapting Batman and he executed it flawlessly.
And don't write off Nolan's movies as just good acting performances and writing. Acting as if directing, cinematography, editing, and musical score weren't part of the success. Actually when you get down to it pound for pound. I'd say any of the three Nolan movies had a better screenplay, editing, music, and directing than Reeve's Batman. With two of the TDK movies also having better Cinematography, as done by the great Wally Pfister.
Keep in mind, I don't want to give the impression I think the Batman is a terrible movie. It certainly had good elements. It excels in showing that dark and gritty, and oppressive atmosphere that does well in Batman's universe. But it has a long way to go to really flush out the character of Batman/Bruce Wayne. It's very singular in it's adaptation at the moment of the character. I think it's important to show glimpses of and remind the audience of the things Bruce Wayne endured and how he's haunted as a character. This new Batman movie didn't really do that. Just very monotone and the length of the film and writing of the character certainly didn't help with that. Bruce Wayne/Batman is a very three dimensional character in nature. This new version is anything but that so far.
And that's how you do it Marvel 😏
Marvel's done it plenty of times.

I am f::k1ng hyped for The Batman 2.
First part was close to a masterpiece. Everything about it was great I can't unsee The Batman winning Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay.
The goosebumps soundtrack, Costumes, everyone's acting, story, cinematography and the undeniably great "Something in the way" by Nirvana made this movie so awesome.
Matt Reeves the 🐐.
Hope the grounded story and raw real action continues in an even better way in the sequel!
Hopefully so
Idk about masterpiece, and everything great. 8/10 highest
@@booboo4ever24 9.5
Yeah no. It get sound, visual effects, hair and makeup design.
This guy, Reeves, created a cool aesthetic Batman very close to reading a comic book with the narration from Bruce's POV
As a Batman fan boy this movie was Impeccable the best Batman adaptation I have ever seen from Gotham to Bruce Wayne, the Batman and Gordon relationship and over what he did with the rogue gallery Falcone Penguin and giving us a visual of Gothams underworld man it was amazing
Reeves has a better handle on Batman than Nolan.
Reeves is definitely the most genuine batman fanboy that has done a movie from what I have seen
@@Joshcoshbagosh They should make a new movie called baby doll starring Kiruna Stamell as Mary Louise Dahl
Fr I love this director
Well duh. Nolan rejected all canon
🤣🤣🤣🤣
"To me. For me" -Matt Reeves
Robert Pattinson is My Batman 🦇🙏
In my top five favorite films of the year so far.
Reeves is almost Tarantino levels of intense
Batter
Fuck no.
@@anthonycorcino6700 Tarantino suck! His movie never make money
@@godzillaeatsushi4979 Oh really, its amazing he's still working today. Get out of here wokster.
@@anthonycorcino6700 working? Really. His days are done and he will not make another movie again
It's just another Batman. Nothing new or interesting about. I don't get why the big deal about it. Other than toys sales.
4:36 idk why but Matt Reeves swearing makes me laugh
As soon as he Said Walmart I shivered
Legendary Batman director Matt Reeves 🥶
Matt Reeves is quickly becoming one of my favorite directors. His work on Planet of the Apes is astounding.
Matt Reeves gave us the best Batman, can't wait for the sequel, and, please, post the full seminar!
I do not think he gave us the best Batman. He gave us a great movie with the potential to go and become a great Batman.
Robert Pattinson Batman has not really come to maturity so we will need to wait and see. I loved The Batman and cannot wait for the sequel.
@@bighands69 Battinson has already more depth than the rest of the Batmen put together. The search for his method, how he makes mistakes, and is so deep into his obsession, it's the best Batman portrayal so far. The sequel should be even better, we'll see.
@@eduardopazhurtado3882 The Bathristopher Nolan movies have their own incredible qualities, but in terms of presentation imo Batt Reeves tops it with his
@@gibn1542 I love the Nolan Batman films, I always watched them, and they're still fantastic, but, Reeve's presentation and proposal, it's just so much better.
It was boring. Batman didn't do shit.
Awesome interview. Matt reeves gave us a masterpiece and I can’t wait to see the sequel to this. Also low key he looks like commissioner Gordon in this interview 👀
who knew that the guy who directed the darkest batman movie ever has a high pitch voice.
And before you start yes nolan has dark moments too, but their movies where mostly action film with some thriller aspects in it, reeves batman is a noir film with horror elements in it
Yep
Matt ✨
looooved the movie, pattinson was awesome. thx matt.
Best version of The Batman 2022 👉 ua-cam.com/video/xbZh7ByD6_M/v-deo.html
love this my man vision but why does he look like jim gordon from the comics in this video
...Have President Truman watched any movie, or documents on August 9th... 77 years before today?..
I want to know what the car owner's lottery numbers are, because he's one lucky guy
Brilliant film. Robert absolutely killed it.
I never thought about his disturbing it is that someone is hiding in the back seat of your car.
Because I’d never in a million years think to check if someone is in there before I get in. 🤣
This film is a masterpiece. Seeing it in IMAX was totally worth it
So true king
5:40 "I have a thing for strays" was a brilliant line. She killed it in the movie.
Full version??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
he is incredibly well spoken.
Batman the two 😍😍😍two thousand twenty four let it out
💯
The Batman truly felt like a classic mob movie. Except it's ending brings hope not tragedy. So many actors brought their absolute A game to this film.
Felt more like a thriller mystery noir but it defo has those mob elements in the film.
Thats Ned Flanders
i love you so much
Okay, I never thought Kip from Napoleon Dynamite would make a Batman movie.
Is he talking about the sequel ?
Read the title slowly
8min of poorly edited together answers from Matt with no context or question asked where there obviously was one asked in the event in question.
So weird that they don't have the questions in there
DC is so much more than glizty hammers and billionare flyboys. Hee hee heeeee HAHAHAH!!!!!
How many times President Truman watched The Batman?
What?
Truman is dead.
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 If President Truman is God, He is alive.
When was the first screening of Batman?
@@petrfrizen6078 What the fuk are you talking about son?
Put the crack down and read a book.
Blah blah blah.
I like this movie but I don't know if its AFI worthy yet
If the people there consider it worthy, I’ll take it lol
Good movie. A little overlong and the Bat-cat romance kind of bogged it down. But good movie overall. I do think some overhype it too much though.
Is NWH overhyped?
You’re wrong but that’s ok
@@wholethedogsout880 the movie suck.
@@anthonycorcino6700 lmao relax with the tiktok attention span
How the bat-cat romance bogg it down lol what did yu expect to happen. This is more of a detective story told then cheap action scenes every 10
Mins
The killer in the car thing he described is a variation of an urban legend.
There have been serial killers that have targeted people in their cars, there have been serial killers that have targeted joggers and walkers.
There has been many different types of nutbags out there doing horrible things.
Matt reeves also directed let me in which had a scene exactly like this
I'm so confused, he just keeps saying the guy, is the killer the guy in wal mart, or the guy waiting in the back seat
Can we just make a super hero Batman, not so dark
