Aquaman & The Lost Kingdom - Page 7

They really need to do an Affleck "comic book" Batman flick.

*Andrew NDB* · 07-28-2022, 06:52 PM

Wow, this could mean a lot of things. Bruce's Batman sticks around post-Flash and moreover he's still the DCEU Batman. Also this smells like fresh reshoots/pickup shoots so this could be pretty significant. There was word that the Keaton Batman would pop up in this movie... maybe this is replacing that?

There's no reason in the world we can't get Affleck Batman movies right alongside the Reeves ones. Pattinson can be the Elseworlds Batman. Reeves can wrap up his little trilogy and it can f*** right off.

Or they are doing reshoots because they removed Amber Heard from the movie entirely.

Maybe but... what, they're going to remove the love story and pregnancy story and give it to Bruce?

I still haven't seen "The Batman"....

Eh. Someday. When I'm bored and need a "comic book fix".

It may not help you much with that, actually.

Called Affleck coming back.

This won’t be the last of him.

*ZariusTwo* · 07-29-2022, 12:24 AM

Apparently this is because Lost Kingdom is being moved up the slate to come out before Flash and it's to retain some consistency with continuity. A cut now exists out there with Keaton and Mamoa from the revised timeline, now giving way to the prior timeline, I've gone crosseyed

And test screenings for Aquaman 2 also reveal Keatons' version of the cameo confused the hell out of audiences

So it IS a replacement of the Keaton cameo, then.

~~AquaParade~~ · 07-29-2022, 03:56 AM

This is going to be good for everyone who threw a fit or had a forum meltdown because they didn’t like the latest Batman film.

One for realism and one for multiverse type crap.

Best of both worlds imo.

And Keaton running around too? Sure, why not. This is great.

Not really at all.

I think so. Most people who had a meltdown over Pattinson/Reeves rather have Affleck.

Affleck is involved in the more fantastical version of the DC, while Pattinson's world is as grounded as it gets for Batman.

Two pretty different flavors. If neither of these are satisfying to a Batman fan, they should maybe just stick to the comics, imo. And hey, the comics are still great.

Oh, well on that note yeah. But what will probably amount to a quick cameo by Ben in Aquaman 2 is hardly even stevens with the Pattinson situation, or even really much of anything to get all that excited about. A little, sure, but what it's not is, "See? Everybody can be happy now!"

Okay, fair enough. But it's hard for me to believe that this is all he is coming back for, so I'm saying this with the mindset that we will be seeing Ben again.

I could be wrong, but why even tangle yourself in this mess all over again, if that wasn't your intention? Remember how tired Ben was of being asked about Batman, before he dropped the role?

He's opening that can of worms again and his fans are rabid.

Again, maybe not, but it would be sweet to have both versions exist simultaneously.

If anything I can respect WB stubbornness of trying to release their movies...despite reshoots, rewrites, rewritings. If only they had GOOD writers and TALENTED managers to accompany their will to make DCCU happen.

Also, WB has become Valve of movies: like Valve they are redoing their movies many-many times before release, having multiple previous version of them canned and cannibalized for the sake of the new ones.

Christmas 2023 release date since it needs more time in post production

*Andrew NDB* · 08-24-2022, 04:43 PM

lol, a whole year later, pretty much. Shesus. Almost 6 years between movies, what a great idea.

Yup, sounds like course correcting.
