This movie is my favorite iteration of Batman. He's actually being a detective for once. And honestly I think this batmobile is cool af. The romance was played right too. I want more of the Batman. I want the DCU to be this.

[jasoncoladonato]

Reeves is just incredible. He’s so knowledgeable and passionate about everything Batman. You can really tell.

[blackdynamitemn]

This just goes to show Joker is a definitive wildcard character. You can give him almost any personality and it always works. Heaths was so Charasmatic it’s nice to see the change. This is the most REAL deppiction of Batman and his world problably ever created

[LeoArenales]

I like the silence of the lambs theme, consulting with one villain to find another, brilliant

[bod-ejds]

The Batman opened a lot of doors, there’s so much potential for this version of Batman, three movies is not enough I hope matt makes 5 or 6 movies for the batman & I’m all for it🦇🖤

[HkPat]

I hope Matt Reeves makes more than just trilogy, so many stories to tell than just 3

[thebatmanwhoposts]

I love hearing Matt talk about the Batman universe you can tell how passionate he is about it.

[onezerotwo]

the laugh is perfect, because it is mean, joyless, and bitter… a new take on an old favourite

[sveezyx]

incredible work on the Joker, the Barry Keoghan did wonderful work,

sad this scene was cut out from the movie

I've had my fill of Joker portrayals on Film. But this one works for me since we dont get a full depiction again. A rough showcase at what this Universe is like and how dark it is. Shows us a foggy image and leaves out imagination to fill in the gaps

[DCPRIMETV]

I see Matt Reeves’ The Batman commentary, I click. Simple. Can’t wait for THE BATMAN 2!

[thewordweheardtv]

As a Batman fan from a kid I have to say this is the best version. You guys hit the mark with this series

[dedeff]

This is the proves that joker always one step ahead of batman..he’s smart, cunning and have a dark joke ..I think this joker is smarter than riddler

[nicholassulikowski]

This Joker doesn't have quite the same power of, say, Mark Hamill or Heath Ledger, but it does have its own creepiness. Like hearing a child laughing in your house at midnight, and you don't have any children.

[smileyeagle]

I understand all the reasons this was cut, but it is a tragedy that what turned out to be one of the best acted scenes in recent years ended up on the cutting room floor.

[manish]

There's no doubt that this movie is amazing ❤️

[OwlEye]

Matt Reeves is easily one of our best modern filmmakers at this point.

[faizalskhan]

There is more Gotham feeling in this one than other ones. It’s more Raw

[adrianpearcy]

This scene is masterpiece! And this Joker is incredible 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[HatCreature]

This is an interesting take on the character, I assumed the disfigurement would be from chemical burns but he's saying he was born this way which actually makes him darker and more sinister than possibly most versions of Joker. If this is the style Matt enjoys going with I do hope we get to see Scarface/Ventriloquist in a film, even if they are just in one scene getting beat up or something I think Matt could find a way do it with how out of the box and daring his style is. Also, when I say daring I mean not mainstream where everyone has to look pretty and flawless for the camera.
