I agree!!! I saw it in IMAX 3-D, and I thought it was waaaaaay too dark in certain scenes. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

| Nareed Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 346 Posts: 12545 | I saw an animated Batman movie called "Under the Red Hood." Apparently the Red Hood has a checkered history in the comics. As I don't read comics, well... In this case, in order to avoid spoilers, I won't tell you who the Red Hood is, but I'll say he's not Jack Napier. What I liked was a bit of dialogue near the end, hopefully it makes sense without revealing who speaks to Batman. The other man, let's just call him that, in reference to killing criminals and villains in the field without benefit of a trial, asks: Other man: Would it be so hard for you to cross that line? Batman: No! God Almighty, no! It'd be too damned easy. All I've ever wanted to do is kill him. A day doesn't go by when I don't think about subjecting him to every horrendous torture he's dealt out to others and then... end him. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Superman? There is a trailer that was released last weekend for it. Even though Superman "died" in Batman v. Superman, he's in it. I'm sure they'll resurrect him in no time. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Who else? I thought the ending showed clearly he didn't die. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

It's all green screen acting because of all the CGI, which makes it even worse. Cost 250 mil, made 280 mil, uh oh.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Disney has a habit of being really successful or completely bombing. I bet they never dreamed that JC would make less than half of what Lincoln made.
