The trend for hacks taking over franchises to be more “serious” and “dark” is starting to bore the shit outta me.
Just because it worked for “Batman Begins” doesn’t mean it works for everything else.
God only knows what the NEW schmucks have in store for HELLBOY.
This movie was fun, watchable and could stand alone without sequels.
When this came out fans of the Universal's and Hammer films consider this to be a CGI laden silly film. Now it's all of a sudden a golden age style film. No..lol. Tim Burton's Batman was considered a dark film when it came out. In fact the comics at the time changed to reflect that movie. So it didn't start with Batman begins.
shareHow wrong and IGNORANT you are.
“The Dark Knight Returns” was a 1986 Frank Miller Batman Comic series that turned the comic book world upside down with it’s dark, brooding seriousness.
And NO...Burton’s SHIT films did not cause that fucking change in Batman comics...seeing as they were released in edit:1989, mmmkay?
🙄
Batman most certainly took stuff from Burton's Films.(I am.well aware of Frank Miller's dark Knight) The city itself eventually was turned into Burtons. There was a while issue where building were being destroyed in Gotham to reveal building that had older architecture. It was stupid but that is how the explained the city looking like burtons. That's just one example. Oh and Burton's Batman was out in 1989 you brainless twat...
shareOoOoOooo....so it MUST have inspired the darker Batman comics from 3 years prior, buttsniffer?
🙄
😂
Batman has gone from dark to goofy to dark etc. The early 70's brought back a darker Batman. Go back and read some old issues if you don't believe me. Frank Miller's did not start the idea for a Dark Batman...
shareOoooOoooO...so now Burton’s films have something to do with the 70s as well.
😂
Sorry bub...you lost your credibility when you claimed the shit Burton films started the dark trend in comics after their release.
Even “The Killing Joke” was BEFORE the Burton films, mmmkay?
🙄
Sorry nerdface the Button Film is what started the dark hero films you are complaining about today. Which was my original point.....the comics have gone back and forth.
shareNo, dingbat...blame the hacks who think they can do better.
Like the losers who are currently rebooting “HELLBOY” as if the Del Toro films were shit.
And don’t get me started on the Dark Universe failure with Tom Cruise and their lame attempt at a CHICK “mummy”.
When this came out fans of the Universal's and Hammer films consider this to be a CGI laden silly film. Now it's all of a sudden a golden age style film. No..lol.
I love them all.Classic Universal, Hammer and the Fraser films. The Tom Crusie one though kinda sucked and it put an end to Universals Dark Universe....
shareAgreed.
But I hope they attempt them anyway.
The “Bride of Frankenstein” producers have stated that their film has NOTHING to do with the Dark Universe franchise.
Sounds fucking lame, though... 🙄
I don't think the Cruise film was nearly as good as the Fraser offering, but I enjoyed it fairly well and thought it was better than a lot of people gave it credit for.
Kind of a weird movie since it had the task of trying to jump start the Dark Universe in addition to telling its own story, but I liked it overall.
I'd give it a 7/10.
Mummy and Mummy 2 are fantastic movies. I have them both on disc. No PC or SJW crap, just a good ole enjoyable movie.
