shareThe OP sounds like another 'reverse psychology' PR campaign comment.

What are you talking about?
CHEESE is delicious! Everyone wants cheese!
Think about Batman 1966 - absolutely wonderful show, EVERYONE loved it! Maybe you are really thinking of 'bodies', not souls, but I say you are completely wrong.
When Batman went all 'gloomy and dark', I groaned. People of the nineties clapped like idiot seals, but I prefer my entertainment to be ESCAPISM FROM THE DARKNESS, not plunging into more darkness. If I want gloomy, dark, depressing aesthetics and a story that brings anxiety, I have my life.
The Batman 1966 show and movie were campy on purpose, and everyone went nuts for it. I bet many people are Super tired of all the 'can't see a darn thing because it's so dark and colorless'-crap in movies, and would like to go back to the 1980s, where you can actually see (and hear actual human voices instead of demonlike grumbling and growling) what's going on.
There's a reason why 1980s movies are so cherished by most youtube 'reactors', and why they always fall in love with every 1980s movie they 'react to'. It's hard to imagine anyone TRULY loving any 'modern Batman' stuff as genuinely as everyone seems to love the 1966 campy cheese.
Cheese is GOOD. Remember that.
Which would you really, truly, honestly watch?
1) Good cheese with cheesy music and colorful fun that pokes fun at itself and makes you laugh
2) Super-gloomy, dark, depressing anxiety without any colors, combined with pompous 'seriousness' that does nothing but make you cringe and feel like you are suffocating
I don't know about you, but I would go for number one every time (please don't read this wrong) and anyone with any sense of what's good will do the same.
BRING ON THE CHEESE, PLEASE!!
In short, I would much rather watch 1966 Batman than the super depressing, dark, colorless, pompous, pretentious, 'dark Batmans', no matter how much people clapped like dumb seals back in the day. Bring on the lights and color!
I won't wine(sic) if they bring me some camembert..
One of the biggest problems of any remake is that original Score. It's too iconic, it is the Superman Song
If you look at Bond doesn't really matter if it's shit or you don't like the actors you hear that tune and the juices start flowing
they need the rights to that score and not be afraid to use it
If in the trailor people heard just a few of those opening horns it would be a smash
