@Steven1498uh @TNW343 @AhoyBricks Bats have big ears ergo Batman should have big ears. Simple as that.

God I really hate those little nubs for ears

Ben Affleck’s Batman, seen in never-before-seen photos from Ironhead Studios’ Batsuit costume test. “The first time the Bat turned his head.” (Via Ironhead Studio IG)

@HayDawg2006 @vaughanilla_cos The argument is the muscles look fake and he looks fat.
English
@vaughanilla_cos The only argument to it being bad is that Ben Affleck didn't need it. Okay? He doesn't need to be Batman either. Let him have drip.
English
I don’t think the passing in the final BvS suit is bad.
Especially since it functions as armor that just happens to be shaped like muscles.
Axel🦇@AxelTalksFilm
before the overstuffed padding we got in the movie, this is by far the best batman has ever looked
English
@i_am_the_truest @AhoyBricks I know, but it still barely stands out, to me at least. Especially Absolute Batman.
I know it’s not much but at least Batflecks ears are broader from the side so in that way they’re closer to bats.
English
@Steven1498uh @AhoyBricks The exact shape is not the whole picture, it’s that there is an emphasis, Affleck’s suit lacks that emphasis
English
@Steven1498uh @AhoyBricks You can see how Bermejo is interpolating the ears of the same type of bat that Finger was right?
Affleck’s is completely flat
English
@i_am_the_truest @AhoyBricks Like yeah you can see the groove in the head as a continuation of the ears, but it’s really not that noticeable in the actual game.
Lee Bermejo does this much better.
English
@Steven1498uh @AhoyBricks References, the latter 3 are popular and do resemble bat ears, Finger’s does resemble a bat that is not always referred to after, but his design always made the ear a clear focal point rather than a horn-type that feels almost avoidant of the bat quality always gone for 1/2
English
@i_am_the_truest @AhoyBricks If I really use my imagination I can kinda make a connection for some of these, but I don’t know where you’re seeing it with Absolute Batman.
English
@i_am_the_truest @AhoyBricks Sorry this is reaching. None of these resemble those Batman pics. They’re broad and rounded.
English
@Steven1498uh @AhoyBricks These references show how clear the silhouette of the ears are on each bat, they all come to a narrow almost sharp point, that’s not apparent on Affleck’s iteration 2/2
English
@i_am_the_truest @AhoyBricks That meme doesn’t make sense here. You said you don’t like the ears because they don’t resemble bet ears. Again past the 50s/60s they’ve never looked like bat ears. It’s a reasonable inference.
English
@Steven1498uh @AhoyBricks Those are longer and less wide from the profile, it’s also because it’s a feature film adaptation, typically you want that to be representative of the Batman canon as a whole even though it’s an impossible task, the main inspiration here was an Elseworlds comic
English
In a parallel universe, Odyssey is a masterpiece because they cast Ellen Page as Helen of Troy.
English
@BlazeBinges I’d rather watch this than all the Oscar winners from the past decade.
English
This is one of the worst movies that I have ever seen.
English
@RichardOcelot Tbf Punisher 2004 kinda did this first. The ghost of his dead wife tells him “no Frank don’t kll yourself. Stay alive to kill more people!”
English
The fact that The Punisher: One Last Kill has an emotional stand-in for Frank Castle's daughter hand him a flower drawing after he butchers a bad guy, symbolising that his daughter now approves of his psychotic life instead of being horrified by it like she obviously would be.
Lego Kingo@LegoKingo
Part of the reason why One Last Kill didn't work at all is that Bernthal is 100% convinced that being The Punisher is something Frank does *for others* (be it his dead family or "normal" citizens). For the character to be compelling, it needs to be something he does *for himself*
English
@evildeadburnt I wouldn’t. I’d want at least 2 wishes and my first would be to make a wish with no monkey’s paw shenanigans.
English
If you had the One Wish Willow, what would you wish for?
English
@Pudding_Pocky Tbh, he had no business being Iron Man's Archenemy, I don't really understand why he was. Take away the racist crap and what really is there to the character other than his rings? Should probably have gone the way of the Dodo

English
@Fenrirtheicewo1 Maybe they thought the rings were too similar to the infinity gauntlet. Only reason I can think of.
English
He should have been kept with the ten rings, screw that MCU bullshit.
Armored adventures would've been a great way to modernize him, an old school friend of Tony who was more than he appeared and wanted to use him to get the Rings and take over the world.
No, the stones and the rings can be differentiated... the audience is not idiots. You just gotta establish that one is stronger than the other.

Unpopular opinions on The Mandarin?
English
English
@i_am_the_truest @AhoyBricks So you don’t like how they’ve been drawn beyond the 50s? Even in the early 40s they sometimes just looked like horns.
English
@AhoyBricks You know I never liked them either without knowing why and I’m just now realizing it’s because they so clearly do not resemble the bat ears that Bill Finger was looking at when he designed Batman
English
@Bemol417647 I’m guessing they meant from a mainstream perspective.
English
The Incredibles is only called “Dark” and a “Deconstruction” by people who have a surface level knowledge of Marvel and DC but no other superhero media. It’s really not that subversive when compared to other superhero fiction.

Unpopular opinion on The Incredibles (franchise).

Sandra Hüller when asked if she "feels the guilt" of Germany's past:
"Yes, I feel the guilt every day. And also I never get bored of it, to feel the guilt because it's necessary to act right."
English
@DiscussingFilm Not sure why it has to be a remake and not just an original evil puppet story.
English
Sam Raimi is set to direct a remake of ‘MAGIC’.
The story follows a ventriloquist whose dummy begins to take control of his life and encourages him to commit violent acts.

@Steven1498uh Man almost like there a reason people didn't like this version on release
English
TAS Freeze was taking an ice villain and giving him an amazing backstory, Maws would of kept him a generic thug with an ice gun
The Fox Witch@9BitFoxGaming
Tying all of Superman's Villains into a overarching Story about Krypton & their Tech is way more interesting than just rehashing the same characters & Plot lines + Changing the Core of the Character is how we get stuff like TAS Mr Freeze. Experimentation creates better stories.
