Matt Reeves Wants His Standalone Batman Movie to Be About the World’s Greatest Detective

THAT’S WHAT... ah the hell with it.

Can we also call a mora-bloody-torium on kid-friendly “parodies” of stuff that’s for grown-ups? Kids don’t get the references and when they finally see the original material, it’s been spoiled for them: “I don’t understand Dracula! I’m halfway through the book and he’s not counted anything yet!
