#it’s realistic and funny but m y g o d the pitch they chose to speak in was not enjoyable at all

I just saw Batman 2022 after seeing all the talk about it and I feel like I watched a completely different movie than the majority of the movie’s fandom. How is Paul Dano’s Riddler more attractive than Zoë Kravitz’s Selena Kyle & Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne?

I know the pandemic has mentally put the majority of EN speakers, especially from the US, is a bad mental state- but y’all really gave emo Neville Longbottom, who only consumes Monster energy drink with heroin mixed in, & probably smells of week old American cheese that’s been sitting out in 120F- the oncelerfication treatment? Like I’m both concerned but also impressed.

Btw shout out to the writers, director, & Mr. Dano for nailing what a drug addict turned terrorist actually would be like. The intention was missed by a concerning amount of people but it was good, regardless. Also Mr. Pattinson did that - I love that for him when I know everyone’s initial reaction to his casting was mixed (myself included, I acknowledge I was wrong). Also Ms Kravitz? Smash I-i mean smash I- sorry smash sorry I- FINALLY A CAT WOMAN THAT MATCHES THE TONE IN A POST 90s BATMAN FILM {but also again, smash}

#mun post #also like bless the hearts of those who genuinely identify with the 2022 riddler - I know y’all aren’t okay #I know it in my soul someone is definitely doing their thesis observing the riddler 2022 fandom #good movie 8 outta 10 because I wanted that one cop who kept telling Bruce to stop touching evidence to shut up because their acting was bad #idk who told that guy to be annoying and grating on the ears but it genuinely could’ve been dubbed over with a slightly less grating voice #it’s realistic and funny but m y g o d the pitch they chose to speak in was not enjoyable at all #and then when they had their realization oat the end their pitch went normal so that actually pissed me off #batman 2022 #also 8 outta 10 because I saw the deleted cutscene of penguin with Selena and I ish they kept that in #btw whoever’s played the penguin I HOPE THEY REMAIN IN THAT ROLE IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE Y E S #ALSO THE ACTOR FOR COMMISSIONER GORDON REALLY MADE ME LIKE GORDON FOR ONCE #I would also smash Alfred btw #one last thing it’s nice seeing a good depiction of batcat - some of the comics and cartoon walk a line that I don’t like but 2022 is #one of the most realistic takes on what they are dynamic wise and it makes me feel better about what poison ivy will be like
