Beer & Skittles: Batman Movie 2022

The Batman, which was part of the larger DC Extended Universe and was released on March 4, 2022, is believed to be one of the more fan-serviced movies, with many hailing it as ‘The Batman We’ve Always Wanted.’ Although the Batman character has been in films played by various actors for decades, the first comments to this cinematic outlet have been mainly positive, fulfillling viewers’ thirst for the real deal.
