Is the world ready for three different Batmen coming to theaters in one year. The Flash promises to bring back Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck as the Caped Crusader and we'll also get Robert Pattinson in The Batman, exploring the character's early years. Both Marvel and DC are having a lot of fun with the concept of multiverses, so I think that the general public will be able to roll with the idea of multiple Dark Knight iterations. I just hope we eventually get our Keaton-led Batman Beyond movie!
Batman and Kitty first met on a B&B: The Lost Issues cover back in 2010...
Since 'Star Trek's' "Mirror Mirror" with a bearded Spock to 'Sliders', parallel universes have been given exposure. (They even used it on the original 'Dark Shadows' series.) And the 'Flash' series has done a great job on explaining it to viewers. 'What If' may help the general public too. Since the 1970s, science fiction has had a rise in exposure to the whole country and beyond.
ReplyDeleteMaybe DC and WB have learned that the tv branch and movie branch don't have to be mutually exclusive after all.
And since Batman has encountered the Hulk, how about Batwoman encountering She-Hulk?
I'm hoping THE FLASH eventually results in a WB/Disney co-production that will give us a cinematic version of "DC vs. Marvel." With the first feature, perhaps, entitled...JOINT ACCESS.
ReplyDeleteThe way DC's been going, we'll probably get a LEGO Marvel vs. DC before we get one in live action -- or even conventional animation. And I personally wouldn't mind seeing an MCU/Arrowverse version.
ReplyDeleteHow's this for a wacky suggestion? Ryan Reynolds, playing Deadpool as a talk radio host, saddled with a pair of monosyllabic guests. MCU's Groot...and DCEU's King Shark!
ReplyDeletehey Ross, i have a wild new team up idea for you....
ReplyDeleteHerbie the Love Bug and H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot from the Fantastic Four and Herbie Popnecker the one and only Fat Fury?????
