As the world is still immersed in the Coronavirus pandemic, I guess I could have predicted a considerable delay in the full Official Trailer for the upcoming Warner Brothers Pictures release “The Batman”. Of course I must admit that I didn’t think it would be more than a year in coming but I digress and if you didn’t see that post with all the other things going on in the world you can just click HERE to review it and learn my thoughts at the time. Since that time the world got the dreadful “Wonder Woman 1984” and the only okay IMHO James Gunn effort “The Suicide Squad”. Now comes the chance to give “The Batman” a better look so let’s do that shall we? Some premise and casting are below for your review. Enjoy.

While I was expecting a lot of Pop Culture coolness to come our way care of the DC Fandome which ran for a majority of the day on a computer near you, I wasn’t expecting quite as much as we ended up getting. We started with the presentation of the brand-new trailer for “Wonder Woman 1984” which was followed by a teaser clip for “Zack Snyder’s Justice League” and now its time for the big guns as the first clip from “The Batman” is revealed. Take a look down below and enjoy some casting and an amazing poster by Jim Lee before my editorial thoughts bring us home. Enjoy.
