Abrahms and Reeves are childhood friends and got into the industry together tho so its funny how its those two

why is it so hard to release batman in october...

the most popular horror themed superhero who's last movie made a billion dollars getting shunted to february

I guess I’m just trying to understand if they really think Abram’s project is something they’re confident in or not? Like why put it in that slot and not some other date you know?

Wondering if it’s because they have a lot of confidence in TBP2 and they see it as an automatic hit no matter when it releases

Rumor is the test screening for the Abrams movie went VERY WELL (GOAT back) and Warner want to give it a huge window, IMAX, 70mm, etc.

With the way things were previously, everything would’ve been rushed, including the edit itself.

Article makes it seem like they’re going all in on Abrams and delaying to get 70mm prints made with a good IMAX window. It’s his first film in like 8 years and might actually be an event

TBP2 in February is fine if they’re actually going all in on winter. It’s the same slot stuff like Black Panther and Deadpool used to release in, and releases on a holiday weekend for a solid bump. It’s performance ability isn’t really affected and won’t have to compete with other major late-year releases

Edit: meant to be reply to @Jammuh

At this rate that's the only scene they've filmed. It is insane how long this movie has taken.

Kinda want this to end at part 2. A trilogy shouldn't take over adecade to release unless it's just insane quality.

Tbh 4 months not too bad but man I really wanted an October release date

vibes wouldve been peak

Denis did it back to back during the same timeframe …

Idk whatever personal stuff that went on must have been super serious and I get the privacy around it but knowing to some extent would maybe help everyone not feel so upset about this

Yall being a little dramatic there are other movies dropping

Nah not our place just drop a fire movie

Fair

No trash 3rd act please

Original was March . Will be fine

All we need is James Gunn to die a horrific death with his bullshit universe idea and DC is back

Just makes it more impressive that Denis was able to drop the entire Dune trilogy in between the production timeline of The Batman and The Batman Part 2

i live in LA i wanted to see the snowy streets of gotham when it's cold outside

Actually seeing a Batman film (or one he stars in) to its release is pretty hard. Very few Batman film ideas have ever actually made it there. We know of the myriad of scrapped films, pitches, development hells, etc...

WB/DC has been attempting this at various points for 20 years and it never quite goes as planned.

Sadly…The Dark Knight Rises is the last Batman movie to make a billion

They moved The Batman Part 2 down 4 months to make space for a f***ing post-Rise of Skywalker JJ Abrams movie starring Jenna Ortega and Glenn Powell

We can’t be f***ing serious. Everybody laugh
