And I find that that's cool, because, while it's certainly silly to suggest that Batman is, like, close to 80 years old (if not older) and he hasn't aged at all, it, at the same time, pays respect to what came before. In fact, technically speaking, this Bruce Wayne/Batman in this movie, is supposed to be the same Bruce Wayne/Batman that Adam West portrayed in the 60s.

And that is the fact that, while it does its own thing that's unique to it, it's also a movie that pays tribute to every incarnation of Batman out there. Regardless, I think this movie does something that's quite cool. Though, to be fair, I haven't kept up with the most recent incarnation of the character and, quite frankly, I'm not that interested. With that said and not saying that, at least as I can remember, there's no real nod or wink to what came before in most, if any, of the previous Batman movies. And I understand that, they're attempting to do their own thing while attempting to add to the character's legacy. You know, the thing about most Batman movies is that, quite frankly, a lot of them are afraid to be compared to what came before. I don't know why I felt the needed to point that out, but there you go.

But, let's get on with this shall we? With that out of the way, it should be noted that the movie THIS version of Batman first appeared in (The Lego Movie) is fantastic. Realistically speaking, to me, this is more canon Batman than DCEU's continued attempts to replicate what came before in terms of the Batman character. And, to me, The Lego Batman Movie is what comes closest to that vision I had of a sillier Batman. I'm not saying Batman needed to become Deadpool, but that's a good template to follow in terms of silliness but, at the same time, remaining a quality movie. You can be silly and good, Deadpool has proven it two times already. That movie was terrible, if a complete campfest. Now I'm not saying that he needed to be silly like Batman and Robin was in 1997, the movie that killed Batman as a film franchise for 8 years. He needed to be a more comical character. I remember saying, before this movie came out, that the new Batman needed to be silly and goofy. I had no problem with Affleck as Batman, despite many people's complaints about his casting, what I had a problem with was keeping the same dark tone of Nolan's version. That's why it was immensely disappointing that DC continued with the dark and brooding Bat but with Ben Affleck under the cowl instead of Christian Bale. They're completely different versions of the character, so they can't be judged the same. The comparisons will always be made, I mean it's Batman, but the less the continuation is like what came before it, the more you avoid those comparisons. We already saw the dark and brooding Batman and I don't think anyone can top what Nolan and his crew did with the character, so why even bother? To avoid the inevitable comparisons, you would have needed to move away from that. Having said all of that, as much as I did love the Dark Knight trilogy, I felt that whoever took up the mantle of Batman needed to take the franchise and the character in a completely different direction. And, as a whole, The Dark Knight trilogy is tremendous and, in my opinion (again), no superhero franchise has even come close, MCU or otherwise.

It's also one of my favorite movies ever to boot. It is a thing of crime drama beauty that transcends the limitations of the genre. Or rather, I should say, my favorite of them all. In my opinion The Dark Knight is the best superhero movie of all time. To this day, if you were to ask me who would be my favorite superhero, I'd still say Batman. I dressed up as both many times, mostly Batman than the latter. Seriously though, it should be noted that, as a young boy, my favorite superheroes were Batman and Wolverine. The Lego Batman Movie tell story about 'A cooler-than-ever Bruce Wayne must deal with the usual suspects as they plan to rule Gotham City, while discovering that he has accidentally adopted a teenage orphan who wishes to become his sidekick.'.What the fuck is this? I've seen two good DC movies in a row? What? Has hell frozen over, it must have, because this hasn't happened, really, ever.
