Keaton is in a different universe. If you watch the trailer, he asks Barry why he came to that timeline, and Barry says because his mom is still alive in that one.

It's a play on Flashpoint with Keaton taking the role of the Thomas Wayne Batman. I really, really hate that Miller is involved in this or I would be excited for this movie.SF2004 said:AgfromHOU said:

Just read an article that explained it sort of…
What about Nolan's Batman?
This is the product of a bunch of execs sitting around asking how they can make a movie they made as much as no way home…. Then said let's just do that… call Michael!

I mean no more than Wakanda Forever was a ripoff of Aquaman.

Is this a bit of a ripoff from the latest Spiderman movie "No Way Home" with the multiple universe thing going on?
That '89 Batman soundtrack though! LFG!

I think I might be more excited about seeing Michael Shannon's Zod again than I am even about Keaton's Batman.
But apparently Henry Cavil's cameo was cut? DC sure hates him.

i think we're at a point where this must just be a legitimately good movie. now, maybe that's by DC standards, but they have had every justification to just scrap this movie to the point where the only reason not to is because it's either: (a) crucial to the future of the DCEU, and/or (b) a really good movie. i'm betting it's both.TCTTS said:
This looks incredibly convoluted, a little too goofy in parts, and feels like the most random grab bag of superheroes inexplicably stuffed into the same movie together.
And yet… I can't wait to see it now.
Because it also looks like so much fun, and like I'm going to really enjoy seeing these characters and this world finally free of the dark, dour Snyder filter/influence, and free of the baggage of the DCEU had it continued as-is.
After this trailer, somehow, I'm looking forward to this summer at the movies even more than I already was (and this was already one of my most anticipated summers in years).

No way. He's popular beyond belief, especially with the teen/young 20s girls. My niece has seen every thing he's ever been in, and she hates superhero movies. Tom Holland could blow a snot rocket while being interviewed on Good Morning America and 10,000 girls would say it was the hottest thing they've ever seen.Brian Earl Spilner said:
To be fair, the same could be said about Tom Holland's Spider-Man in NWH.
When I took my 12-year-old daughter to see Infinity War, she was having a tough time with the movie when Gamora died. I had already seen it by then, but could see what was coming as the characters started to turn to dust. When Spidey dusted, you'd have thought my daughter just saw her mom flush her favorite stuffed animal down the commode right before killing the family cat, running down grandma and drop-kicking dad over the back-yard fence. She probably didn't really see or hear much of the rest of the movie for all the tears she was gushing.The Porkchop Express said:No way.

I got more of a Mr. Nimbus feel.Brian Earl Spilner said:

Other way around, Mr Nimbus was a ripoff of Namor, who has always had that same kind of lookjr15aggie said:
ROFL!!!! Thank you for pointing this out! I never saw Wakanda, but from the trailers there was always something off-putting about the villain character. Bwahahaha... that's it... they friggin ripped off Mr. Nimbus!!!
I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but now I know why my brain gave this movie a big "nope" after the trailer.

So no cavil, but a new super girl character.
Imagine going back to 1989 when Batman and Last Crusade are in theaters & your younger self asks what are you all excited about in 2023 & answering Michael Keaton playing Batman and Harrison Ford playing Indiana Jones. pic.twitter.com/zKlSUNWQ1s
