    Should The Batman 2 push the boundaries with an R rating? In this video, we dive into the pros and cons of making Matt Reeves' The Batman sequel darker and more intense. Could an R rating enhance the gritty realism of Gotham, or would it alienate a broader audience? We’ll explore how a mature rating could impact the portrayal of villains like The Joker or Hugo Strange, and discuss whether it’s necessary for continuing Robert Pattinson’s darker, brooding take on the Caped Crusader. Join us as we break down the potential storylines, fan reactions, and the precedent set by other R-rated superhero films like Joker and Logan.

    Batman universe is dark and should be R rated for sure. The fact we now live in a smoke free world is exactly why cinema should embrace alternate realities. Sadly that might not make as much cash and so the powers might tame it down to get a family friendly rating. Sad IMO.

    I dont think it needs an r rating if the first one didnt.
    Do you think bruce wayne will come across vic. Im not saying bruce takes him in as robin but he just saves his life and vic tells him everything about penguin? Then vic will play a key role in exposing penguin.
    You know what i would like to see, a spin off from gordon point of view as he investigates penguin alongside harvey dent.
    He meets with sophia who he finds it suspicious she was just standing around waiting to be arrested. He investigated oz but cant find a good lead on him then vic shows up and makes a plea deal with gordon to expose penquin. Vic calls the guy from final episode the one that warned him about the bounty. Leads him into a trap and uses him to find out penguin new hideout for the drugs. Make the show about gordon dealing with the corruption on the inside while going after a criminal who he knows is guilty but cant prove

    I felt like Part I had to censor itself multiple times with its camera angles. I feel like the R rating could've made Riddler a whole lot more terrifying. The R rating in The Penguin made Gotham a whole lot scarier, it feels like the whole city wants to slaughter you. Also, most Batman comics would be rated r, it's time long-fan adults get what they want.

    I rewatched the Batman 2 days ago to see how it felt after the penguin and you don’t really notice the difference, they work well together, I agree it doesn’t need to be R just for the sake of it, I think that hard pg 13 they did is the way to go

    • @DigitalCharcuterie

      I agree.
      However, Oz drops the F bomb a ton in his show. He didn’t say it in the movie, and probably won’t in the sequel.
      That’s a rather glaring inconsistency.

    The one part in The Batman that I felt was hindered by a PG-13 rating was at the last scene where Batman is fighting all the riddler henchmen, and he gets all juiced up and beats the lights out of a dude, so much so that Catwoman is shocked by the violence, then it cuts to the dude and he is barely bruised. My guess is they needed to show this dude's face was intact to keep a PG-13 rating. The problem is, it made Batman seem weak.

    • @DigitalCharcuterie
      @DigitalCharcuterie  2 місяці тому +1

      Yeah I think moments like that, when you’re dealing with “this is a realistic approach” but the rating hinders that, I think that’s when maybe you look at maybe having a higher rating.

    If the Joker makes an appearance in the Batman 2, you would need a Hard R for sure as it is the most terrifying depiction of the Joker till date. Also villains like Hush, professor Pyg, Dollmaker would need a Hard R if they were introduced.

    It doesn't have to be rated r, but man I wish it will be. the 2nd batman I'd assume will make over a billion dollars. It might not hit that with an R rating even with the success of Deadpool. That's only the 2nd billion dollar r rated film it's safer to go pg-13 to guarantee a 3rd film

    • @DigitalCharcuterie
      @DigitalCharcuterie  2 місяці тому

      I think they towed the like wonderfully on the first film and if they can do it again, then I don’t think R is even a question…but, of course, I don’t know the story they’re doing or if it needs the R. I think whatever Reeves and co believe they need, at this point WB should give them.

    It all comes down to the type of story they want to tell
    .
    If they do hush and he takes off his bandages and its just a fleshy skeleton that would be pretty cool enough for an r rating
