Buck Thumbs Down on New Batman Movie, Biden Intros “Batman” at WH
26 Apr 2022
BUCK: I watched the Batman movie over the weekend, which I’m sure producer Mark in here has seen. I thought it was the most boring, unwatchable piece of trash (laughing) I have ever seen in my life. I love him. I’m a Batman guy, ’cause people say, “You hate everything.” Batman Begins with Christopher Nolan? Amazing movies. I love those movies. So I don’t want this, “Oh, Buck hates everything.” No. I just hate what sucks, and this movie was so…
I’ve been watching the Reacher show on Amazon. Love that show. I’ve been watching Yellowstone. Love that show. F1 on Netflix — Formula 1: Drive to Survive. I keep bothering Clay about it. He’s like, “Shut up about the F1 show.” I’m like, “It’s so good, though!” How do you make a three-hour long Batman movie that is so bad? I want to pick a fight with anybody. Producer Mark thinks I’m crazy, but everyone else? I don’t get it.
CLAY: I haven’t seen it yet. We took the boys, I went, took them to see the new Harry Potter movie, and I believe Doctor Strange comes out like next Friday; so I’m sure we’ll be there like on the next Friday, but The Batman movie, was it like a little bit dark?
BUCK: Very.
CLAY: Yes. So, how old would you say is the appropriate age? You don’t have kids, but, if you were assessing based on your childhood, what is the appropriate age to be… I can’t take everybody to see the Batman movie, right?
“The Batman” movie has some creative elements, but overall it’s tedious and depressing. Not worth seeing.
Pattinson is like a sullen emo teenager the whole time, and John Turturro as a scary mob boss is just silly

BUCK: Yeah, I used to get taken to Schwarzenegger movies when I was like 8 so I definitely have a —
CLAY: I did too. I don’t know, and I’ve been fairly lenient with my own kids about where to go, but they like the Marvel movies, right, and there’s a certain effervescent quality to those that doesn’t exist in the Batman movies.
BUCK: Robert Pattinson? Is that his name, right? He’s like an angry Emo teenager from the nineties who’s like (growling), “I’m just Batman.”
CLAY: Right. That’s what he played, right? Like, he was a moody vampire.
BUCK: Yeah. He’s basically like a moody vampire in a Batman costume. I don’t even know what’s happening. The movie just stretches on forever. It doesn’t really make any sense. It had some cool visual elements to it. Like, I’ll give credit where it’s due. But, anyway, I’m just saying, I’m just trying to help people, Clay. I was trying to do a little… Speaking of Twitter, for whoever follows me there, I was like, “I don’t think you should waste your time with this movie.”
CLAY: Did people rip your analysis?
BUCK: Ohhh! “Worst. Take. Ever. Why do you hate everything?” I’m like, “I don’t hate everything. I love a lot of things. I just hate bad movies.”
CLAY: Maybe they’re right.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
BUCK: Clay, one fun thing to end the day. Joe Biden, apparently — speaking of The Batman movie. NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman? Biden has a different name for him.

BIDEN: I want to thank commissioner Gary Batman for being here as well.
BUCK: It sounds a lot like he said “Gary Batman” to be fair.
CLAY: Gary Batman. By the way, I’m getting blown up about your review of the Batman movie.
BUCK: See? People are angry!
CLAY: People are furious that you were even sharing your review with me.
BUCK: Clay, I just want to say to everybody out there —
CLAY: I’m getting fly-by shrapnel.
BUCK: — about the Batman movie that we are all entitled on our opinions, and people who like this new Batman movie are entitled to their wrong opinions on the movie.
CLAY: (laughing)
BUCK: That’s fine.
CLAY: I can’t believe I’m getting’ blowback over your Batman movie opinion!
BUCK: I know. They think you’re going to get me to be sane, Clay. That’s the idea.
