Soooo… secret-society themed Batman game coming out?

That seems to be the consensus?

Well, the consensus at least among that part of the hardcore Batman fans* that aren’t hyperventilating at the news.

Dammit, now I’m pissed that there’s not going to be a live-action Batman Beyond flick.

Ben Affleck NOT going to be Batman in 2021’s The Batman.

He’s hanging up the cowl: “Warner Bros. is dating their next rendition of Batman for June  25, 2021. This is the one that Matt Reeves has been attached to as writer and director. Ben Affleck, we hear, will not be donning the Dark Knight’s tights after playing the Caped Crusader in Batman v.

The Batman: The Animated Series Honest Trailer.

Honest Trailers has views on Batman: The Animated Series.

Extremely sensible ones.  This is one of the Honest Trailers where they didn’t try real hard to nit-pick it, mostly because there isn’t that much to nit-pick.  I mean, dagnabbit: Batman: The Animated Series ruled so hard it violated the Constitution’s requirement for republican forms of government.  Sometimes you just gotta know your limitations, amirite?
