Robert Pattinson Cast as Batman

Hard pass.

Wven worse than Affleck.

Won’t judge him too soon

Your average Joe doesn't want their Batman to be the guy from Twilight.

No thank you. I've seen him in other movies...he's suited for drama. NOT action.

Well, it's not like anyone's asking him to play Hamlet instead. Let's look facts in the face.

NO!!!

He's got great hair, and that's about it.

Not a bad choice, but Christ let the franchise sit for a bit.

Bring back Keaton for Batman Beyond!

At least he's not a big fat slob

At least he isn't a fatty?

Good casting.

Batman should be played by an American actor not another Brit.

His horrible underbite will look awful In a bat mask!

I just cannot imagine him in the Bat Suit. I have a feeling George Clooney's Batman won't be considered the worst after this.

Will the twihard moms and the DC fanboys mix well or kill each other off over this?

What a sad day for America.

I’m guessing they’re hoping for some tween shit since everything else DC churns out bombs.

Taylor Lautner as Robin!

R20 Robin unleashes his Roid Rage!!!

Just no. RP hasn't been at all interesting to me since he was Cedric, and that was only because I wanted someone to get him out of his robes.

He's been gaining respect as an actor, but mainly for doing roles unlike this. I'm having a hard time envisioning him in the part, but I like Matt Reeves as a director.

What’s the question if the answer is cock robin ?

Kristen Stewart as robin.

BWAHAHA

What does Batman do when he's not fighting crime?

Runs Wayne Enterprises.

Batman could be a great franchise if only DC/Warner knew how to make good movies. They should pay attention to what Marvel is doing.

Ta da!! Robert Pattison has new life breathed into his so-so career.

He puts on his Bruce Wayne mask and pretends to be a normal billionaire socialite r26.

Bruce doesn't really run Wayne Enterprisea r27, he has people that do that in his name.

He’s neither a Bruce Wayne or a Batman!

R26 see R23

R26 Plows Robin's tight little hole.

Oh, hell no!

The fanboy tears will be epic and delicious.

He just turned 33 which I suppose is the right age for Batman. But at this stage of the game I'm all Batmaned out. Not really that interested anymore.

I don't think he'll do a terrible job with the role.

Do his Twilight fraus still buy three seats each, for each time they go to a showing of his films? Like he told them to? If so, DCWB could make some money from this movie, at least.

Have Tom Holland moonlight for DC as Robin. He can torment us all again with faux underage hotness.

Robert Pattinson, Sandra Bullock, Lea Michele Among TIME's Most Influential

Deadline says that they haven't picked yet but Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult are on the shortlist to play Batman.

Wow, another comic book movie! How exciting!!!!????

[quote]The fanboy tears will be epic and delicious.

They're resoundingly positive on Reddit. It's cool to like Pattinson now due to his roles in films like The Rover, Good Time, Lost City of Z etc. Plenty are rooting for him, and those that just see him as Twilight boy are seen as out of touch.

Mmmmmm....Nic Hoult. Can he be the villain? The naked villain? Pattinson doesn't do anything for me but Hoult, OTOH...

Why not an American actor. I like Nicholas hoult since about a boy but those two might be better playing robin.

After the success of Wonder Woman and Aquaman looks like WB wants a much more female friendly Batman.

Will we get to see Thomas and Martha Wayne get murdered again? Martha’s pearls falling dramatically to the ground...again.

Is Ezra still playing the Flash? Pattinson and Miller could show up at pressers together, in wacky clothes and greasy hair, rubbing on one another like puppies. Maybe Momoa would gave to wrestle them apart?

I'm suddenly ok with him playing Batman. Or Calendar Man. Whoever.

Yeah Marvel might have done another Spiderman reboot, but at least they completely skipped the origin story r46. They knew they didn't need to milk the Uncle Ben thing for audiences yet again.

R44 It will be an oriental American actor to appeal to the Far East market until Hollywood can fire all actors and just use avatars or something

There is no Alfred but Michael Caine. I'd love to see him refer to RP's Bruce as 'that little ponce'.

R43 Agreed that Hoult needs more naked time. Naked and slutty.

Nicholas Hoult possible as Batman? Never heard of him, and he's 29 - too young and too young looking for the role. Next!

In fact, I bet he'd make a great Hamlet. What's the Old Vic doing next season, Rob?

Fifty Shades of Batman

I can see him as a young Bruce Wayne. That mouth could be terrifying in the cowl.

Somewhere, Armie Hammer quietly weeps.

Haha, are they trying to end Batman films for good?

R49. White American actors do sell tickets in East Asia so an Asian actor is not needed to make sure the movie does well in asia.

Perhaps Hoult's hole looks older than 29, R52? I think this ought to be taken into consideration!

Is this a joke? Who did he fuck for this??

At least he is young, fit and has a full head of beautiful hair. That's more than old, bloated, wig-wearing Affleck could offer.

R49 is nuts, and R57 is exactly right. Asians would rather go to the movies to see white actors than Asians. They worship the ground that the white man walks on.

Wait! Didn't that fug frau who 'wrote' Fifty Shades, base it on Pattinson and Twilight? Hahaha! Yes, yes she DID! So, by casting him, DCWB will bring her and her loonies into the mix, with the Twilight fraus AND the DC fanboys!

Hahahahaha!

The age isn't the problem. Most on screen Batmans have been too old.

Bruce Wayne started doing the Batman thing around 24-25, and typical comic book Batman is a man in his mid-thirties.

[QUOTE]At least he is young, fit and has a full head of beautiful hair. That's more than old, bloated, wig-wearing Affleck could offer.

Pattinson fit? Ben Affleck, when he’s in shape for a role, has a way better body than anything we’ve seen from Pattinson.

Christian Bale was 30 when he started playing Batman.

Enough with the goddamn Brits!

Twilight/50 shades fraus are much easier to please and just as reliable as comic book nerds.

[quote] Christian Bale was 30 when he started playing Batman.

And he was dreadful. That chainsmoker’s voice was ridiculous.

R63 is correct. I remember Superman and Batman both being 29 when I was reading the comics.

[quote] Ben Affleck, when he’s in shape for a role, has a way better body than anything we’ve seen from Pattinson.

Are you a frau? Affleck's floppy tits need a bra.

R66 The Brits love you. What do you want, all Latinos like you?

That ain't Batman. It's barely even Robin.

Better be someone young and hot if they want to spend money watching this, I ain't spending 12 dollars to see eldergays on a screen.

Those three groups are gonna kill one another, R67!

Yes, Robert Pattinson is fit.

Dear god

FYI - I passed on this role

This on the other hand ...

Rob Pattinson is a scrawny dweeb. He’ll never put on enough muscle to be respected by men.

No to either of them. They’re too wussy and delicate to play someone who beats the hell out of people every night.

No.

[QUOTE]Are you a frau? Affleck's floppy tits need a bra.

These don’t look like títs to me.

He does have ears like a bat.

[QUOTE]The Brits love you.

Yeah, right. Let an American land the role as the next James Bond and see how much they love us then.

Can you picture the two groups of fraus and die-hard Batman fanboys, sharing space in a convention hall at Comic-Con?

Hollywood trainers could turn John Goodman into Batman given enough time. Maybe this time they wouldn't have to airbrush RP's abs like they did in Twilight.

They give him steroids, like they did Affleck. He'll be fine!

Have Hoult be a street thug that Bats leans on for information ... and sometimes snaps the Batcuffs on.

Anything is better than this drunken douche with bitch tits.

Matt Reeves >>>>>> Snyder

Pattinson >>>>>>> FATfleck

*They'll give him steroids

Affleck is a slab of beef. He doesn’t need steroids. He didn’t even get all that big, just hit the gym and tightened up.

Great. An even worse actor than Affleck. He hit the wall 10 years ago.

R26 he sleeps. Batman works nights like a 3rd shift nurse. He doesn’t have unlimited energy like Superman. His ass is passed out from 7a-5p. Alfred knows not to fucking attempt to venture to his wing of Wayne Manor during those hours.

Finally, a young, healthy-looking actor to play this character after those years of having this piece of fat shit.

Is there any Batman villain who wore just a loincloth? We need for Hoult to play Evil Loincloth Man.

This new, younger Batman ought to disarm his opponents by way of Turkish wrestling

Patterson was great in the indie movie High Life. He will do fine. Can someone help me, has Disney purchased DC yet? That franchise neeeds an Avengers makeover.

Hopefully X-Men gets the same TLC from Disney.

Rob Pattinson tried to bulk up for Twilight and this is the most he could muster.

Matt Reeves IS the Avengers makeover. He did a great job with the Planet of the Apes movies.

Will Batman sparkle now?

Booze, cocaine, and screwing any and every hole in the world might beef him up like Affleck. Plus a bit of Jack N the Box helps those double D’s.

Who is going to play Selina Kyle?

It is a very strange choice, but then again, so was Bale although there is one huge difference between them. Bale can act.

No that you know it from the Batman films he made.

It's hard to gauge how the internet feels about this choice. But I think Reeves knows what he's doing. Haven't most left field Batman choices turned out alright?

Ugh. There’s a hundred young guys arriving in LA every day. 99 of them are better suited to this role than this charmless, charisma free bowl of English oatmeal with womanly hips. Why do they try to foist these dull people on us.

Batman and Robin made everyone terrified of having a Robin.

The whole Batfamily is a crucial part of the Batman character, he should have a Dick Grayson. But I am guessing the movie won't.

If the comics fanboys reject him, R104, RPATTZ comes with his very own built-in batshit fanbase.

[QUOTE]Finally, a young, healthy-looking actor to play this character after those years of having this piece of fat shit.

Yeah cause Rob Pattinson is in such great shape these days.

This is a classic cartoon drawing of Batman. Pattinson will be an anemic version of him.

The final nail in the DC universe coffin. Concentrate on Wonder Woman films. It will never reach Marvel levels

Shit. Now stories are coming out saying this isn't official.

Maybe they'll give Pattinson a CGI Batman body? They've had worse ideas.

Nah. They will claim he spent 10 months in the gym, eight hours a day...but it will be supplements and steroids.

He could not be worse than Christian Bale. He blew huge chunks.

Have you watched 'Suicide Squad'? I assure you, R112, WBDC can gleefully do worse than Bale.

Pattinson has too many female hormones in his system. Supplements aren’t going to do anything for him, and steroids might just wreck his body even worse after he stops lifting weights as soon as filming ends and runs to the nearest pizza parlor.

A young Mr Sophia Vergaro, Joe Whatshisname, should have been in a superhero franchise.

Rob should do a movie with his female equivalent Dakota Johnson. They can play it on loop in hospitals to save on anaesthesia costs.

R81 So that's where the CGI budget for that POS film went, airbrushing out Affleck's titties.

[quote]Yeah cause Rob Pattinson is in such great shape these days.

Well he's not doing a nationwide tour of every rehab center so he's a vast improvement.

Pattinson can brood and squint, so...he will make a great Batman.

Seriously, though. WHY?

Aren't there any bland American actors left? What does RP bring to this film or franchise?

Maybe they could be "progressive" and have Hoult play the Selina Kyle role? Flip the gender but keep the skin tight leather catsuit?

"Jingle Bells, Batman Smells..."

He'll be fine, he does need to bulk up for the suit (or they can always pad it). He'll be a great brooding Bruce Wayne at least.

Remember when Heath Ledger was cast as The Joker and everyone thought it was the worst decision ever? Like some fanboys were actually in tears? And now that performance is iconic.

I’ll wait and see. I love out of the box casting!

But would they have went *quite* as bananas over Heath's Joker if he hadn't OD'd?

Be honest.

From a vampire bat to bat man. Interesting.

Who's he dating now? I think that he and Tom Sturridge broke up a while back.

Heath Ledger was an Oscar Nominated actor when he was cast as Joker r122

Fanboys were just idiots. The gays who watched Brokeback knew what he was capable of.

He's with Suki "I"ll always be a major beard" Waterhouse last I read.

Robbie loves a moist vag on his face in the morning. He seems asexual to me, like Prince William.

He's done really great and interesting work the past few years -- Good Time, High Life, Lost City of Z, the Cronenberg movies - anybody referencing Twilight needs to get out more

I miss him wearing his hair cut with a lady's pubic hair 'landing strip' shaved into it.

He and Ezra are soulmates, I'm telling you guys.

He looked bigger in High Life

[quote]But would they have went *quite* as bananas over Heath's Joker if he hadn't OD'd?

Ledger killed it. But given the academy's comic book aversion, he wouldn't have won the oscar if it hadn't killed him of course.

Lost City of My Ass. None of those projects came anywhere near the scale of Twilight. We all know good and damn well that’s what he’s most famous for.

Not bad

Finally a gay Batman!

Did he ever win an Oscar, like his frau fans use to come tell us he was a shoo-in for? I've not kept up on his art house career.

Batman has always made more sense if you think of him as a closeted gay man. The attempts to give him female love interests never feel right.

Agree, R136. Batman was always going to be a man married to his job, not to a Silver St. Cloud or a Vicky Vale.

Well if that’s the case then James Bond could be a closeted gay man.

James Bond sleeps with every woman he meets. He's a total pussyhound.

Huh r138? James Bond is legitimately a pussy hound, its a core character trait.

Bruce is a man who just pretends to be a socialite flirt, I mean everything about the Bruce Wayne public persona is a controlled act. Sounds like some closet cases I know.

I could almost see it if they were doing a 40’s noir version.

Bruce Wayne gets plenty of pussy.

It’s like Warner Brothers WANTS people to hate D.C. Comics!!

Yes r132 you corn-riddled dingleberry everybody gets he's most famous for Twilight, that's not what I was saying -- if you stopped fondling toddler scrot for five seconds you might see something interesting in the world though, try it

Welp, this version of Batman won't do a crossover with Cavill's Superman. There aren't enough steroids on Earth that Pattison could take for him to look buff, standing next to Henry.

I don't mind this casting but wish they had chosen a guy with the possibility of a larger frame.

Cavill was fired as Superman a while back

Cavill isn’t Superman anymore. They’ll probably just get another twink to replace him, too.

Thanks for the info, R146/R147. What a bummer. He was a beautiful Superman.

Hey, Bob. Hook a brother up. I can be Superman.

Taylor can play Nightwing

LOL, R149! I saw some Twi-hards already lobbying for Kristen Stewart as Catwoman.

You are too old to play his Robin Miss Lautner.

"Finally a gay Batman!"

What am I - chopped liver?

Nicholas Hoult is supposedly also up for the role. Do we really need a femmy British guy as Batman?

Hope he doesn't use that fake voice or a padded suit. That's what they did to Zachery Levi in Shazam! And it didn't work at all.

I don't really follow today's movie stars. I know he was big in the "Twilight" series and did a few arty films after that, but - was he succeeding before landing this role? I feel like you never really heard much about him anymore.

I'd really enjoy an adaptation of 'The Long Halloween'. Pattison wouldn't have to put on loads of muscle for it nor do crazy fight scenes, every day.

R134, ahem.

Whah?

#notmybatman

Putting the "dick" in Dick Grayson.

He’s too young for Batman. Robin perhaps.

Who?

Agree r157. That’s the one I’d like to see made into a series or movies.

Bruce isn't supposed to be an old geezer r162.

More interesting than Ben Affleck, that's for sure

I know people who are evangelical about the movie “Good Time”

Chris Evans became Captain America in his late 20s, almost every superhero starts in that age except for Batman which is weird.

At least he is not a drunk

[Quote] A young Mr Sophia Vergaro, Joe Whatshisname, should have been in a superhero franchise.

I thought he was supposed to be playing a villain in one of the DC movies?

[Quote] Rob should do a movie with his female equivalent Dakota Johnson. They can play it on loop in hospitals to save on anaesthesia costs.

🤣🤣🤣

[Quote] What a bummer. He was a beautiful Superman.

Every actor who has played Superman (on tv and the big screen) was beautiful.

[Quote] Who is going to play Selina Kyle?

Maybe I'm crazy but I feel like Rihanna could pull it off.

BREAKING NEWS:

According to TMZ, Robert Pattinson was recently hospitalized due to severe back pains caused by the burden of carrying the entire A24 studio on his back.

We all wish him a speedy recovery.

R170 Rihanna can't act.

He’s Way More Than A ‘Twilight’ Heartthrob https://

Pattinson didn't have a box office hit since Twilight given that he only made small indie movies. To me it's really surprising how hard WB pushes him. The new Nolan film and The Batman will be 2 of the biggest movies in 2020 and 2021 and he got them both. That's kinda crazy.

Well, at least I'm relieved that Armmie Hammer will not be the next Batman

Nolan Funk might have been good. Darken his hair. .

Spread the wealth, dammit.

A bunch of nerds are gonna watch Cosmopolis and High Life now and they will be so confused

Didn't we have some insiders on this? Can anyone clarify what's happening?

Jodie Comer or Kristen Stewart as Catwoman

I think Taylor Lautner's mainstream resurgence is just around the corner.

I was a featured extra on Water for Elephants and had some limited interaction with him. He was good in that role and on the set exhibited nothing but hard work and professionalism.

Are you kidding? He drinks A LOT! He's English!

How anyone could ever think that Pattinson is attractive is beyond me. He looks like a sickly, bed ridden individual who hasn't seen the sun in a very long time. And his face is particularly rat like. And that mental institution hair just caps his haggard appearance.

I wonder if his breath stinks. He looks like his breath stinks. Do you think his breath stinks?

R184 He was attractive in Twilight movies and Cosmopolis.

Robert Pattinson’s Batman casting divides Twitter: ‘Now cast Kristen Stewart, you cowards’

[quote] Robert Pattinson Cast as Batman

Or maybe not.

Friday, May 17, 2019 Blind Item #12

Don't believe the hype. This foreign born former two franchise actor is on a short list but his team tried to force the studio into giving him the job with their PR push yesterday. The foreign born actor who has a current box office bomb is still the odds on favorite.

R187 CDN is a fraud.

Stephen Graham as Penguin!

Other sites have already reported he is on a short list and it is not a done deal. As often the case CDAN is just repeating known info in the form of a blind.

You people are nuts. Pattinson has turned out to be a great actor. He was superb in Good Time and Lost City of Z.

Matt Reeves bodes well for this too. I'll definitely check this out.

R172 true but I don't think that's a necessity when it comes to these kinds of movies.

R180 no to KStew!

maybe they leaked this just to see how the public reacts...I hope it's not true.

Robert BATinson

R193 or his pr people did.

Hear Robert Pattinson's Batman Voice

Fans Wants Kristen Stewart As Catwoman Alongside Robert Pattinson’s Batman

The recent reports that Robert Pattinson is all but locked in as the successor to Ben Affleck in The Batman sent shockwaves throughout social media. The sadly predictable reaction touched on Pattinson’s time in the Twilight franchise, as folks behaved with puzzled dismay that anyone who’d appeared in something so disgustingly feminine could ever be their rock-solid man’s man Caped Crusader.

Perhaps they’re forgetting that this whole scene played itself out just over a decade ago though when Heath Ledger was announced as the new Joker. Sure, he’s now considered the finest actor to play the role, but at the time fans were positively howling with derision.

But if this new campaign bears fruit, that howling might reach a new volume. That’s because Twilight fans, hopped up on the news that they’re going to get to see Pattinson in a sculpted rubber suit,

R Batz

Here for #RBatz.

The battinson.

R197 Jesus they really need to let it go.

Re: R197, of course they want Stewart in the movie, too! The Twihards are freaking crazy and want their "saga" to continue. So predictable.

If he actually does play BM, they'll be tweeting the academy every three minutes, if their precious RPATTZ isn't nominated for an Oscar for the role.

R122 the only Joker I acknowledge is Prince.

I'm still available

[Quote] Re: [R197], of course they want Stewart in the movie, too! The Twihards are freaking crazy and want their "saga" to continue. So predictable.

I thought they'd pretty much disappeared after Stewart revealed she's also into the ladies. I wonder if they also campaigned for them to be in Fifty Shades....?

His jawline! A trip to South Korea for him. Sawzall time.

R206 i like his jawline. He does have a huge forehead though.

Yasss!

R208 who is that?

Is this hollywood's sense of humour coming out!

R209 - Ben Affleck 2.0

R211 Ben's cuter....or he would've been.

Awesome Batman-ness.

Remember when Lainey use to roast him over his pallid, grotesque hands? "Tea-pouring hands", she called them. And, you could zoom in on the pics to see his long, femme nails with dirt underneath. So disgusting.

Those were the days!

R214 i can't say that i do. Whenever Lainey is mentioned, i automatically think about her hatred of Kristen Bell.

I don't see "superhero" coming from him. (But it'd be kind of funny if Robert as Batman was effete and obsessed with avocado toast and being validated for his heroics.)

At the very least, i think he'd be a lot of fun when it came time to promote the film. The fact that he didn't give a single fuck while promoting Twilight was a delight.

Didn't he weep and roll into a ball during pressers for The Rover, R217?

I am HERE for a Sobbing Battinson!

Not paying 1 cent to watch him

They have some good people in the running.

He has made great choices since Twilight and really pushed himself as an actor. I think he may surprise. If he is gay, as his two previous girlfriends possibly indicate, I wonder if Hollywood knows? Either way I like him as anyone that stars in two Cronenberg movies has my vote as B.atman. Is in Christopher Nolans next one too.

The Toxic Avenger, the ‘90s puppet TMNT, Tank Girl, The Crow, Darkman, Spawn (‘97), the first Men In Black, all three Blades, Judge Dredd, X2, the first Raimi/Maguire Spiderman, Ang Lee’s Hulk, Batman Begins.

That’s all you need. Everything else based on a mainstream US comic book is ratshit.

[Quote] all three Blades,

I like Trinity but it's pretty bad. Aside from Parker Posey and seeing Ryan Reynolds/Jessica Biel in fantastic shape.

Since we're talking about Robert Pattinson, one of my favorite odd Trump moment was when he was briefly, yet passionately, invested in Pattinson's relationship with Kristen Stewart.

LOL

I just realized Robert Pattinson is similar to Pat Robertson

r225, that's hilarious. He sounds like a 14-year-old girl.

Haha! I love thinking that, along with Twilight and Fifty Shades of Shit fraus, that Anusmouth is ALSO a fan of our new Sobbing Batman. This has the potential to be such a glorious clusterfuck!

I do feel sorry for Pattison. So much crazy to deal with. At least he has his $$$$$ to ease his pain!

R228 you really think they could do worse than BvS??

I'm more surprised people aren't demanding batman be black or another racial minority, when Chris Evans announced his retirement the first thing they did was to push black captain America narrative, as if anyone wants to see that.

But at least Falcon becoming Cap was in the comics R230

R61, what's not to love? Are you African-American?

So another moody, dark, Gothic take on the earnest crime-fighter.

[Quote] when Chris Evans announced his retirement the first thing they did was to push black captain America narrative, as if anyone wants to see that.

"I'm more surprised people aren't demanding batman be black or another racial minority, when Chris Evans announced his retirement the first thing they did was to push black captain America narrative, as if anyone wants to see that."

I see the Stormfront queens have arrived. I bet a lot of people would rather see a black guy as Batman instead of Pattinson

R235 or a black Superman.

I wonder if there's a sex tape of Robert with Tom Sturridge? They're not together anymore.

Why do they keep telling this story over and over and over and over again? It’s silly and there’s not much to it.

R238 I think it's stupid how we can't have both a tv show and movie version of Batman and Superman.

.......

He's nice looking and the role doesn't require any acting chops. I don't see the problem.

[quote] He's nice looking and the role doesn't require any acting chops. I don't see the problem.

He’s not attractive. He looks like a skinny pale drug addict who smells.

He doesn't have the nipples to fill out the costume.

Also, he's terminally pasty and drunk. Do all Batmans (Batmen?) have to be drunks/druggies now?

Awful choice.

[quote] He looks like a skinny pale drug addict who smells.

R242, he IS a skinny pale drug addict who smells. That costume is going to be a toxic hazard site.

There've been other pale guys and drug addicts who have played super heroes. Give him a break. He's going to be wearing a mask half the time anyway. And he's got sexier lips than michael Keaton. He can always borrow batnips from George or Chris.

He's a bit skinny for Batman, no?

Can you imagine, if this version of Batman goes tits-up too, or RPATTZ decides he's embarrassed by it all, like he was by Twilight? And, during pressers, he decides to shit all over Batman/Bruce Wayne like he did Edward Cullen?

Or, if he ends up sobbing and rolling on the floor, during interviews like during The Rover?

The fanboys will tear him apart and piss on the peices.

CANNOT WAIT FOR IT ALL! Bring it on! Hahaha

We can bulk him up in no time.

He’s so gross looking.

Can he play convincingly as Daddy Batman to Robin?

Please tell me it's an origin story!

I've always wondered how he became the Dark Knight!

[quote]I see the Stormfront queens have arrived. I bet a lot of people would rather see a black guy as Batman instead of Pattinson

No, people don’t want to see a black Batman. People do want to see a black Captain America because Falcon was Captian America in the comics. But they do not want to see a black Steve Rogers.

That’s why people were up in arms over a black Johnny Storm but embraced Miles Morales as a black Spider-Man. Miles was welcomed as a black Spider-Man in Into the Spider-Man because he wasn’t playing a black Peter Parker but an original character. No one wants to see a black Bruce Wayne, just like no one wants to see a black Clark Kent. But if it’s about the character in R236, then that’s fine since he isn’t Clark Kent.

Oh gawd, please don't tell me it's about "THE CANON"

No, it’s not about canon.

No one cared about a Polynesian Aquaman.

Incels care and care very deeply about all comic book representations anywhere.

They have stated their boundaries!

[quote]He just turned 33 which I suppose is the right age for Batman.

A millennial Batman?!? 🙄🙄🙄

I think Incels could appreciate RPATTZ's snaggleteeth and lack of hygiene. Don't you guys?

Pattinson doesn't seem the sort see a bat and be inspired to fight evil. More likely he would run screaming.

Joel Courtney has been casted as Robin to Battison’s Batman.

Who's his Robin?

Oopsie r260

He'll be fine, nice and bland.

The younger generation will fall in love with his giant, sanpaku eyes and pursed grandma mouth, just as completely as the Twilight fraus have.

Really, he just needs to ooze down into a rubber batsuit and bark out some one-liners to some baddies, without stomping all over any major plot point in Bat-history and the fanboys will be fine.

That he brings his own, ahem, BATshit fanbase (and their $$$$) with him will help the movie's revenue no matter the reviews so that will also make the fanboys happy.

Was Batman English?

R264 yes

I actually don't think he will be that bad. The stuff I have been seeing him lately, he's not a bad actor. They need change. And he is getting quite handsome.

If we can't have Bale, he will have to do.

Frankly I am more excited for the Joker movie.

He will be awful. This is shades of AnnE pushing to be the next Catwoman. He’s a bad actor, ugly as hell and too British pasty skinny for the role.

HORRIBLE choice. Horrible.

R269 quit projecting, you revolting cunt. Pattinson is one of the most beautiful men and a very good actor.

I doubt you have GQ looks like him.

R268 why?

GQ looks? Hahahahaha he’s jacked up in his face. Like he was hit with a shovel. Like Sammy Davis, Jr. minus the immense talent.

R273 show us your face, you ugly fraucunt.

[quote] I doubt you have GQ looks like him.

I don’t care how many teen aged girls have listed after him or what magazine publishes photos of him; he still looks like a pale skinny drug addict.

Yuk!

He’s aging very poorly.
