Zoë Kravitz will be the best thing about this movie. She looks amazing.

Yawn. Another Batman. Now with 10% more edginess! Ooooh!

Seriously, who cares anymore? When I was a kid, I would have killed for more superhero movies. Now, if I never see another cape, I’ll die a happy man.

Who is Pattinson’s back double? There’s no way those muscles are his

I can't buy that skinny fey junkie Pattinson as Batman.

If an American can’t play James Bond, then I don’t want to see these spotted dicklickers taking our superhero roles.

Pity it's not an origin story.

I would love to know how Batman became Batman.

Anorexic Batman! RPattz looks as horrible as I expected. His severe facial wasting is disgusting. Looks very 80's aids chic.

Will we get to see Batman’s parents die, again?

It looks so pompous and doomy and over-the-top.

Therefore, it must be DEEP!

It looks like Nolan did this. Oh well.

Hmmn. It seems to be coat-tailing off the dark moodiness of Nolan's universe. That's fine, up until a point. Aesthetically, there were those pre-dawn shots that seem like something new, as well as Batman here does seem very emo. And, I guess the batmobile charging out of the fire was "cool." The only major potential difference is this movie may be more sexual than Nolan's more clinical vibe.

I'm weary of the character/villain overload. In the franchise, generally, if there are just too many storylines and they don't coalesce in a believable, entertaining way, that spells trouble (i.e. Batman & Robin had their titular characters as well as Dr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, Bane, Bat Girl, and am I forgetting anyone?). This film essentially substitutes The Riddler for Max Shreck in Batman Returns, which had one too many characters. The Riddler AND The Penguin along with Catwoman seems like overkill.

I'm still a little intrigued by Colin Farrell morphing into Robert De Niro as Oswald Cobblepot. But, does he ever morph into ... The Penguin? (interestingly, Robert De Niro almost played The Penguin in Batman Returns)

The trailer overall left me disappointed. The use of Nirvana at the beginning seemed cliche. And the whole rollout has been a wasted opportunity. Why not focus on a different character each time a trailer/teaser comes out? This trailer could have been all about The Riddler (which it seems to promise at first), building a narrative around one of his riddles. And I still don't have a clear sense of what he looks like.

I'm pretty much getting that it's dark, but it's not giving me enough of a reason to care.
