Exactly. It’s what nerds do. I remember this one fake female fan said only female characters take flak online and someone shut her up by showing how much negative flak Ben Afflec got when he was cast as Batman
I was 8 when the movie came out but remember hearing about that later. Nerds will nitpick. That makes us nerds. But when we nitpick a female character it’s evil
No. Not in that case. I guess im just saying that there will always be scrutiny from nerds. But we are branded as toxic for not clapping like seals at the crappy products put out.
Dark Knight is a different story . I am not a comic book guy, but isn't it based off an entirely different comic incarnation of the Bat? In a genre known for reinventing characters periodically.

When it broke that Heath Ledger had been casted as The Joker, people lost their damn minds.
Yup. But it doesn’t fit the narrative.
Michael Keaton was a very questionable choice for Batman, as he was a comedic actor, and people had doubts about that movie not being Adam West-y.

That's why women and girls (generally) have no business in nerd spaces. They don't understand the pedantry and they take everything personally.

And... wasn't he the worst Batman?
I think consensus is that Clooney gets that title.
The nipple batsuit didn't help.
I don't know, but watching that movie now, it really isn't far off from the Adam West incarnation, compared to the Dark Knight trilogy ...
