It's kind of hard to come from a prestigious old money family in america when you're black

Diddy has kids too

 

[KingParappa]

Diddy money wouldn't be old money for at least another 2-3 generations from now. Kids and their kids have to maintain it and add to it.

 

[sea manup]

You can still have the same batman story without his parents being old money. It's about a rich kid who because of childhood trauma risks his life to fight crime. Being an African American who's parents are one generation removed from poverty could bring an interesting dynamic to his relationship with the streets

Stringer bell as Bruce Wayne, he just uses his British accent when he's batman

Perfect

That actually is perfect

Bale was slipping

So you guys want Batwing?

That dude was corny.

No opinion on the other Batwing though, Lucius Fox's son.

True but it depends where you want to reach for it.

I really only considered Bruce's parents to be wealthy. I never got in to the Wayne family like they were old money. I do know his mom does come form old money being a Kane.

 

[KingdomFlatbush]

Nah Bruce's family has been entrenched in Gotham for centuries and at least two of his villains come from rival "Old Money" families. Dude has to be white

 

[sea manup]

There can even be a bit of backstory about how as a kid Bruce started working on his British accent to mock Alfred (because that's what kids do) but ends up using it to protect his identity

The Bat voice

The old money thing

Is the same as Superman having to be a goody two shoes to me

Not necessary imo

Patiently awaiting the arrival of a scumbag Superman and a Batman with charisma who doesn't talk like he has throat cancer. Hopefully in my lifetime I'll get it

Well if superman starts acting like batman that would be a totally different character

But different accent different parents and you can still have the same core batman character

 

[Based Jesus]

I don't mind changes to an established character as long as they don't require you to fiddle with their backstory or personality too much. Like a black Clark Kent would be fine to me because he comes from an alien planet and gets raised by two parents in kansas. That's his story, wouldn't need to change anything to accommodate for a change in race. But for Bruce his family lineage goes back centuries. They're like a fictional american version of the Rothschilds. If you make him black you'd need to change all of that.

Well at this point you might as well create your own superhero that has similar origins to Batman.

 

[shogun]

People still think lex in the cartoon was black. Give batman a dark enough complexion and some might've thought that too.

I hope the same thing too.

Doesn't have to act like Batman but at least have a cool personality and a somewhat unexpected attitude as Superman.

 

[KingdomFlatbush]

Batman has only had the "throat cancer" voice in the Bale trilogy

I didn't realize that Batman's voice was this big a concern with the fans

 

[Master Zik]

In the movies it is. It ruined Batman for me in that trilogy.

 

[shogun]

bane's voice was weird when you first heard it too. I expected him to have an accent like in the cartoons.

 

[tay1]

I liked Banes voice before it was altered

 

[tay1]

Batman doesn't need to be black. Him being black won't make the character any more or less interesting.

 

[shogun]

If he was black he wouldn't need that eye makeup under the mask unless they get one of those really lightskinned guys.

 

[tay1]

And use 70s jive talk when he's tryna disguise his voice.

 

[Master Zik]

I don't know if there were different voices but that final product sounded like a technical problem.

It was like his voice was only coming out of one speaker on one side of the room

The at home version was cool enough. "Ahh, you think darkness is your ally..."

Batman doesn't need to be white. Him being white won't make the character any more or less interesting.

True

If nolan ever has his back broken, I wonder if tying a rope around himself would be one of his treatment options.

It feels as if people gave this bs a pass. I rolled my eyes hard when I saw this.

When I saw that I just assumed his back was never broken and he had a severe back muscle spasm cuz in real life nobody recovers from a broken back that quickly. Batman didn't in the comic

What bothered me was how quickly he got back to Gotham to stop the bomb among other huge errors in TDKR

Or how the stock market allowed Bruce to go broke when armed robbers came in and uploaded a program in view of a ROOM full of traders.

 

[Ja's 2¢]

aye bat's voice sounds so damn robotic this time around. :x It's like he's being dubbed instantly.
