Not much of a spoiler, just makes sense IMO. The tats could work in the same way also. They may be covering up some of the various battle scars he's received over the course of battles with Batman. Comic book wise they have shown Bruce Wayne being covered in scars from various incidents and battles.

I love when fans demand comic movies be made as real as possible, but when little realistic details get added to characters, they bitch that it's "off character".

 

Right!

I'm seriously at a point where I'm about done with all things nerd. These mf's are as closed minded as the general public. I grew up being a nerd back when that wasn't cool. You'd think geek culture would be a little more open minded considering just a few years ago being into this kind of thing meant you were probably going to get picked on.

Okay, rant over. ...lol

 

Well u rite. The only reason they are getting love is because hollywood see dollar signs.

 

Exactly!

 

This 100%. It's almost like geek culture isn't really populated by geeks anymore, but by ironic, tongue-in-cheek, hipsters. The kind that are only into geek culture b/c they're not athletic, but are basically the asshole rich kids from school with the brand name clothing. A summer in NYC, London or Tokyo and now they're "geeks".

 

Yep . U see them on late nite shows claiming they are nerds or geeks. Yeah rite.

 

Being a nerd now is considered in and cool compared to back when we came up. Both my kids are into nerdy type things, my son more so than my daughter but both are looked at and treated like popular kids in the school social circles. My son is into a lot of the exact same nerdy things that I was into at his age and got picked on for but he gets treated like a king. Girls from his school are always trying to holla at him when we're out and about together from time to time. I'm like WTF? Why wasn't it like this when I was a teenager?

 

Being a black nerd back in the day wasn't ever easy, in fact I think we had it harder than our white counterparts. I remember getting the disrespect from the brothers and the classic anti-nerd crowds. These little black nerds coming up now, don't know how good they got it.

 

This. In a way it's good because they can indulge in the things they like without all of the typical anti-nerd backlash. Too bad the racial/racist element now seems to have crept in to replace it.

 

It's totally the "in" thing to be nowadays. When we were kids, skateboarding, playing role-playing games, and watching Voltron or Star Wars caught you a beating (or at least chased and mocked). These days every kid wants to play video games and do their best Fonzworth Bentley imitation.

 

White fanboys were also pissed about a black guy playing Deadshot :smt101

 

I am waiting for this amazon prime thing.
I hear a 50 inch tv is up for sale. I'd like to buy that to place into my house to rent out.

Wait.. What exactly is going on with Amazon Prime?

 

Their own version of Black Friday

 

Being a black nerd in the south was not cool back in the 80's. I remember watching Doctor Who with Tom Baker. When he died to transform into another Doctor(played by Peter Davison), my younger brother cheered Nd danced to Ron Grainer's complete theme song. Thankfully, the sho continued with Davison. I would rather watch that, The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, Blake's 7 and classic Star Trek episodes on my local PBS station. My father didn't care for the nerd culture, either. I felt very alone but I didn't care. After I graduated from high school, I discovered Voltron and Robotech. I was in heaven back then. Now it's like an exclusive club. Not everyone can join.

 

I agree. Now it's only for the "cool". Things have definitely changed. I used to get laughed at for racing home to catch Voltron before coming out to hang out, and I used to prefer to stay at home and watch Doctor Who at night on weekends than go to the mall or the skating rink.

 

Do you remember Commander USA's Groovy Movies? It was the antidote for boring days at the mall. It came on Saturday and Sunday. It showed martial arts and sci-fi films from Mexico
,which were dubbed at a studio in Coral Gables. I miss that program.

 

Storm, Apocalypse, and Psylock from the upcoming X-Men movie.


Apocalypse will hopefully be more menacing in the finished movie than he looks in this photo.

 

Halle Berry must have gave up on playing as Storm
