Unveiling: Early Remarks by James Gunn Criticizing Keaton's Batman

A series of vintage screenshots shared by Twitter user @MyTimeToShineHello shed light on James Gunn's early remarks, where he voiced sharp criticism towards Tim Burton and Michael Keaton's inaugural "Batman" movie.

According to these screenshots, James Gunn extensively scrutinized the plot and sound effects of Keaton's "Batman." While he did acknowledge some issues with Nolan's "Batman," he openly asserted that it was far superior to Keaton's version. Gunn candidly expressed disappointment in the script and sound effects of Keaton's "Batman."

What garnered even more attention was Gunn's stern critique of portraying the Joker as directly responsible for the deaths of Bruce Wayne's parents, as he deemed it a stark denial of the "Batman's endless thirst for vengeance."

Nevertheless, these comments also ruffled feathers among certain netizens. One individual commented, "Everyone has the right to express their opinions, but Gunn is more than just the executive producer of the next DC film—he's also involved in the upcoming 'Batman' movie." Others expressed disbelief: "How could anyone dislike the soundtrack of 'Batman'? I'm genuinely surprised to see this, as I never thought he'd have such a view. Gunn's taste is truly perplexing."

Some noted that these comments originated from Gunn's earlier years. One user elucidated, "Frankly, it's quite unsettling that someone dug up comments from 11 years ago on an online account. These statements date back to 2012. If this makes you uneasy about Gunn and DC's future, then it's best to focus on living your own life."
