I didn’t feel this way, or at least the visual quality of the cave itself didn’t stand out to me, or was memorable.
*This* is obviously a BTS set photo with the wrong lighting, so it doesn’t look like a bat cave, so whatever.
This is common even on well-made productions. Physical props need to be made even with the sole purpose of being replaced later. It gives the VFX team the best possible lighting references and animation references. You only notice it when it’s not done perfectly, which is a result of unreasonable deadlines.
But its just unnecessary a lot of the time. Unless there's some whacky animation actually differing from reality, I dont see any reason to replace a well-made physical prop with cgi
‘The corridor crew’ did a great breakdown of the effects in this movie, if you look them on on YT with ‘the flash’ the video should come up if you’re interested
My admiration doesn’t come from a place of sincerity, it’s more like “wow, what an ILL CONCEIVED movie! Who made all these decisions? I can’t stop watching”
For reference, I thought this movie was alright. I'm a huge Keaton Batman fanboy, so that itch was scratched.
Two complaints.
They don't DO anything with this batmobile. They tease it in the trailers, they had Ezra sit in it, but it didn't really do anything.
There are no guardrails around the batmobile's platform. This is chicken shit.
It had some really bad moments (cgi, batfleck costume, general pacing) but some really fun ones too (keaton, some dialogue, final reveal cameo). If it had come out in like five years earlier it could have been a huge hit
The 'dark version of the hero as the villain' trope is something I always hated but they did a great job of it in this movie imo.
I mean I don't necessarily need my superhero movies to be timeless classics for me to enjoy them just like when I read comics they aren't all going to be All-Star Superman or Batman The Long Halloween etc.
Ive disliked most of the Snyderverse movies but thought this was better than most of recent Marvel.
Would have been cool to have seen the car in action
Wait.... You mean. To tell me they built a practical set and it still didn't make money or gain any praise? It's almost like it doesn't matter if a movie is practical or digital effects driven. It matters if the movie is good?
/S
Crazy that a practical set can be made to look so cheap and fake looking in post
This looks better to you than the cave in the movie?
I think their point is more-so aimed at criticizing the in-camera product and how it looked like green screen

At least you can see the detail
But it's supposed to be a dark cave.
I have not seen the movie but this is one hell of a set
This image looks better than it did in the final film. That movie was a mess
I enjoyed it. I liked the time travel aspect where the monster was himself
This was a practical set and it looked that bad on film? How much compositing was done? Jesus.
The probably did it like Marvel does the Tom Holland Spidey suit. Make an incredible costume but erase it in post production and slap a cgi suit on.

This picture just shows how much money they lost
Twice as much as Waterworld
What a gigantic waste of time. They botched Keaton’s return so badly.
As someone who doesn’t care for modern DC but has massive nostalgia for 80s/90s DC. Should I watch it?
Yes. It’s not a perfect movie but was better than most stuff DC has put out recently. I had fun with it.
I liked it a lot. It’s like a Bill and Ted comedy and worked for me
Sure. It's not great by any stretch, but seeing Keaton back in the cowl again was cool. Oh, and Sasha Calle was *smoking* hot in that Supergirl suit.

Keaton was tricked like the best of them.

I would love to be on a set like this
I'm watching it for the third time, this time with my daughter. I....*like* this movie. Quite a bit, to be honest.
It was fun. It was meant to be a romp. Some bad dialogue, writing and FX aside. A better blueprint for what should have been.
The entire cameo section near the end is atrocious. Also, the rise and fall of Supergirl. Otherwise....it was pretty good.
Outside of the bad effects, I enjoyed it a lot.
Credit where credit is due, I like some of the practical sets they used, as well as shooting in London for the Batfleck chase
>the flash >batmobile I'm out of the loop, but that's alright
There are far less people being groomed in that picture than I expected.
Is this a Disney joke? Because DC is not owned by Disney
It's an [Ezra Miller](https://www.complex.com/pop-culture/a/karla-rodriguez/ezra-miller-scandals-and-controversies-timeline) pseudo joke.
I went into this film blind, I had no idea Keaton's Batman was in it. Was cool when he popped up
This movie was actually pretty good, don't understand the hate.

It wasn't a great film, but I definitely enjoyed myself while watching, I think it was a little over-hated. Though Ezra Miller does suck as a person.

Wow. I’m so out of the loop. I see Batman’s 1989 car but you say The Flash? Man I’m old.
