Now that I think about it The Batman would be a perfect retroactive first DCU movie
Not too late to convince Matt, James
Just let him cook with the solos and get his input for Justice League
Now if it’s all really because of Rob then I get it
Casuals don’t pay attention who’s directing or who’s creator of the show or movie tbh. If they can handle two separate Batmans they’ll be fine with Reeves working on his universe and DCU. It’s more confusing for us who pay attention to those things

this doesn't really offer much clarity but
so either Matt pitched it AS a dcu entry. or he pitched it as a Reeves hing and they wanted to make it a DCU thing

2nd one, most likely.
I’m saying that mostly bc this was already in development when things were up in the air about the DCEU & bc Antonio Campos strikes me as the type of filmmaker that Reeves would attract to his verse.

Maybe reeves pitched it as a way for them to introduce DCU Batman
this is gonna be so CRAZY
Easily the dumbest / worst part of The Batman
Brilliant movie that couldn’t help itself by having the Joker in there somehow
I really hope Hush isn't the main villain... Feels like that'd be too similar to Riddler
Need this like I need air
i hope they go deep on eerie historical gothic arkham lineage lore like the arkham games did
armadeus arkham founding the asylum in tribute to his mother who went crazy, he himself eventually going insane and being buried on the grounds


him leaving clues/writings for people to discover

quincy sharp eventually getting obsessed with finding his writings and finding out what happened, sending him crazy too


does arkham rehabilitate insane people or does it create them? the people in charge are doomed to crazy. Either because of an eerie mystic curse thing or because curing the inmates is such an impossible task
cool stuff there for sure
Asylum still the best of the trilogy, City lovers come at me
I have faith that Reeves won’t make Hush feel too similar to Riddler
He doesn’t seem like the type of director to do the same s*** twice . Dawn and War of the Apes both have completely different pacing and vibes, so I think Reeves will switch it up in Part 2 as well so things still feel fresh and new
Who am I seeing here?
These were set photos from Matt Reeves first Batman
People in Superman and Wonder Woman costumes on Halloween
It was cut but it would’ve implied that they existed in the world of The Batman

Ooh yeah that would have been an interesting turn
