Batman '89 Returns! (?)


The big trades are confirming it!




Michael Keaton is in talks to reprise his role as Batman in the DCEU Flash movie.

Rumor is, the plot is, Flash changes the timeline, ala "Flashpoint", and Keaton is the new Batman in this rebooted universe, as a sort of elderly mentor figure.

This is also how they'll sweep Batfleck under the rug.

Pattinson Batman will be off in his own timeline, like Joaquin Phoenix Joker.

Keaton must hold the world record for being asked to reprise a role for this long.

On a stranger note, gawd the tributes sure are rolling in for Joel Schumacher, eh? Weird, I thought if there was a director people loved to hate he was right after Michael Bay and Uwe Boll.

Kinda awkward that the DCEU restoration of Keaton is going to erase the Schumacher sequels, and it's announced the day he dies.

I liked "Lost Boys", "Flatliners", and "Falling Down".

"Falling Down", is all the more relevant today.
Kind of predicted today's world.

I'll give Schumacher The Client, A Time To Kill, Phone Booth and maybe Batman Forever...he'll have to do a few years in purgatory for B&R and St. Elmo's.

Hilariously enough I found an article where Emilio Estevez admits SEF isn't very good!

I heard on the Kevin Smith podcast that Schumacher said somewhere that he had sex with 20,000 guys in his lifetime.
Gay or straight, doesn't matter, that's a lot of fucking, and good on him.

I'm not gonna pity him anymore.
He obviously didn't need to care about what any fanboys thought of his Batman movies with all the fucking he was doing.

If he really boffed 20,000 dudes that's four times as many people as Gene Simmons!! Skeet skeet.
