>HENCHMEN would center on a low-level henchman in the Gotham crime world who gains notoriety after managing to incapacitate Batman through a stroke of luck, attracting the unwanted attention of the Joker and Harley Quinn. The Dark Knight would only appear briefly in the movie. The pitch bears strong similarities to "The Man Who Killed Batman", a fan-favorite episode from the 1992 animated series. Cregger has not yet pitched it to DC Studios, though the company is said to be aware of his interest.

they still think they're in peak capeshit era and can just greenlight anything

I'd rather they oull Charlie Collins maybe not necessarily with Da Jokah

can we please stop with giving every spec of dirt in the Batman universe it's own movie/show?

At the end batman isn't dead

>The pitch bears strong similarities to "The Man Who Killed Batman", a fan-favorite episode from the 1992 animated series.
‘Strong similarities’ lol it’s essentially the same thing. So we can just ripoff Batman cartoon plot lines and pitch it right back to the studio? Nice.

That's what Flanagan did for Clayface.

>makes two amazing original horror films
>gets thrown to the IP mines with Resident Evil slop
>downgrades even further with CAPESLOP
its so, so incredibly sad. they already killed james wan like this.

Imagine being enough of a fag to want to see a semi-promising filmmaker make another fucking Batman movie

>two amazing horror films
You're kidding, right?

Just realized he's gonna cast Austin Abrams. They're homies now

>>213603803
please Weapons is unironically great and Barbarian is above 95% of the other horror crap as well sorry that some guy on reddit might also like them which triggers your autism

>>213604270
For fucks sake, just tell him to stop liking things this movies do terrible

>>213602174 (OP)
im gonna be employed by disney soon as a director

so what is say doesnt really matter

anyways, feel cregger is more suited for simon dark than this henchmen project

>>213602364
You're right. Hollywood weirdos are 20 years behind their time. They're laughably naive.

>>213603760
I'm sick of Batman and I've never even watched a single Batman flick from start to finish.

good morning saar

Speaking of specks of dirt. I'm pitching TRASHMAN, the fable of a Gotham City garbage collector who saves the life of a Henchman who was thought to be assassinated and thrown in the garbage. TRASHMAN 2 continues the saga of Trashman's septic tank cleaner, SEWERMAN who cleans out a radioactive sewer and receives special powers to puke green glowing vomit at will which kills TRASHMAN'S arch nemesis RECYCLEMAN. In Avengers style, each serial installation of Gotham City's under-underworld leads to the climax of TRASH WAR, in which the mutated giant insects and zombie homeless who live under the city rise up for their own piece of the merchandising kingdom.

>lets just copy batman TAS

guys what about a Batman series but like, it's uh, from Summer Gleeson's point of view? think about it, guys, you'd have her, trying to get the scoop on stories, really show a side of Gotham from like, her perspective, a side of the Batman Mythos we haven't seen before.

dark and gritty

a found footage horror anthology featuring a support group for battered and beaten henchmen with Robert Pattinson in a silly costume as Matches Malone who runs the group would be better.

>>213605963
I know those words but they don't paint a picture

You mean something like hidden body cams of an undercover agent while the goons plan or execute a hit?

>>213603684
His RE will probably be better than the Paul W.S. Anderson ones

>>213606004
that would work well actually. all the cameras in gotham would be shitty broken cameras in the dark, and beaten to shit henchmen in casts and braces all sobbing and having an emotional breakdown with the Batman in his Matches Malone persona laughing his ass off the entire time.

have every shot be from the pov of another broken camera or even cop cameras with henchmen landing on the windshield of a cop car.

Sob reading that gave me motion sickness

Plz just use a trypod

>>213606136
long takes my dude. long takes.

>>213602174 (OP)

I don't remember that episode at all but wasn't there something similar with some random goon finding out Batman was Bruce Wayne and trying to sell that info to the highest bidder but the Bat rogues go apeshit and try to kill him instead?

>>213606145
You get the benefit of the doubt don't make me puke
