Basically, it seems they want any fan of DC movies to stop whining because there will be a Batman for everyone now.
Which I'm on board with, because, why not?

Is We Got This Covered not notoriously unreliable?
I saw stuff today on twitter claiming that DC were planning a new Constantine film as well as something called Justice League: Rebirth (effectively a reboot), but I didn’t link to either as both read like click bait, with the usual unnamed “reliable source.”

“We Got This Covered” is a 100 percent fictional clickbait site.
Yeah, I do not trust those sites. Age old adage of "If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is" applies here, to my mind.
Dang, I knew of Cosmic Book News, guess I'll add this to the pile. Though lately, I don't discount anything if it's good news like this since studios are going to be pulling out all the stops for guaranteed money the next few years I think.
They do put a giant RUMOR in front of their headline

Well, I'd hope they wouldn't scrap any JL movie project forever. I've said for a long time, they should approach JL movies as one-offs. They can feature the actors and characters from the solo movie franchises, but they shouldn't serialize them. Focus on the movie you're making, not on all those others you're trying to make. That said, still just a rumor.
What's not a rumor* is Junkie XL's score for the Snyder Cut.
*With these kinds of segways, I should be on TV.

Excellent. I strongly dislike the Elfman score (and his scores generally). It was a far bigger irritant to me than the Super-stache that drove others nuts.
I'm not spinning a thing, you merely misread what I wrote.
They did. But back then it was still considered taboo to reward homosexual love scene material. It's why the movie was so controversial at the time.
It was more because the rest of mainstream society was still quite homophobic.
An award he got as a consolation for dying. I'm glad MCU never stooped that low.
I WOULD like to see more of Batfleck, he was one of the best parts of the initial DCEU. A shame more of his Gotham didn't get more fleshed out, like his version of Catwoman.

Everything about your version of these events is still wrong. Repeating it doesn't make it correct. Ledger was heavily favored as best actor for TDK throughout the season, especially as he had already broken is pretty boy/romantic comedy type in his role in Brokeback Mountain. There was no conspiracy.
Ever. So. Much. Yawn.
Well, as much as I really enjoyed Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne, the entire interview he gave just a few months ago on how he's totally done with Batman, and the fact that the article was on 'wegotthiscovered' basically tells me bullcrap to the max.
Which is a pity..... But atleast there's a great chance we're getting Keaton as Bruce Wayne atleast! Loving that.

You can't deny his tragic young death played a role in things. Without that, the Oscar buzz would have come to nothing.
I'm starting to wonder if there's anytime you're not yawning.
Actually, we can. The only available evidence is he won. That is fact. Your speculation about his death playing a role is...speculation.
Anytime I’m not reading your ill-argued, unfounded screeds.
Not all comics are good, some should be disdained and the films should avoid being influenced by them.
I did think both the ferry dilemma resolution and Batman taking the blame for the killings were pretty pretentious but they didn't ruin the film.
How were the Nolan films ashamed of post-Crisis Batman comics?
A love interest being killed was then and, in films, still is rare enough that it was appreciated as a surprising and well-done development and I think still is. Harvey Dent, people were understandably comparing him to TLJ Two-Face and Venom and he blew those (bad-to-weak) predecessors out of the water, I think TDK Two-Face was a pretty good adaptation even compared to good predecessors.
They played them pretty similarly, Nicholson with more amusement and goofiness, Ledger as more sinister though Nicholson was pretty sinister too though not as often.
I'm not sure why BB was so quickly overlooked, most of the big comics fans loved Bale's portrayal but otherwise probably a lot of people just didn't see BB, assumed it would be like B&R and so skipped it. With TDKR it is kind of funny that Hathahate happened soon after but wasn't even related to her Catwoman while the portrayal of Bane did make for pretty polarized reactions, some loving him, a lot thinking he was underwhelming or badly done.
Cause he died, and that artificially boosted everything. We even had nutters saying that Joker should be retired as a character so no one else could ever play him because it was be an insult to Ledger.
So anytime anyone disagrees with you.
Sure, a lot of 90s stuff was utter crap. But it's better than going full INO.
I meant more TDKR.
The whole "grounded" thing, the removal of the Lazarus Pits, Bane not getting his Venom, the removal of the fantastical elements.
Cliche and a waste of a good character.
They took Batman's 2nd biggest enemy (arguably) and made him a pawn of the Joker.
That's not the same as shame.
Not really a pawn so much as pushed by the Joker. Harvey already had that dark side. He just needed the right leverage.
No its not. Crap is still crap. Having a film do something new doesn't make it "in name only" a phrase that is starting to loose its meaning in these debates.
