So Marvel is just going to start stealing Batman Begin's plot


Saw the trailer, seems a straight up copy of Nolan's plot. Rich boy returns from Wilderness after training in the mountains to find his company stolen and wants it back, and also puts his training as a tool to fight crime.

You mean Iron Fist's actual backstory?

reply

I know you have only ever seen 10 films in your life, but The Hero's Journey has been retold over many times before Nolan started directing films.

reply

Only 10 movies, huh? Shut up you stupid moron. I have seen more than you can imagine. I have seen twelve!

No you are getting the number of movies you have seen mixed up with your age in years.

reply

Shut you stupid *beep* I have seen twelve movies and I am 11 yrs old! No confusion. You are just a stupid retard, who is wrong about everything.

So no movie was made before Nolan created Batman right?

Lets forget these things called comic books. You know the material that came before the movies and shows.

You would be hard pressed to find a superhero that this does NOT apply to.

So basically you are left with this:


Rich boy returns from Wilderness after training in the mountains to find his company stolen and wants it back
Of course you have to ignore that Bruce wayne left for the wilderness when he was an adult. His parents died many years earlier. Danny Rand went missing as a boy. Also, Bruce wayne didn't spend time in a mystical city or acquire any superpowers.

Apparently Arrow also follows this same plot loosely. I never watch that crap so I wouldn't know.

There are many many examples of this trope. In Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, robin returns home after many years abroad fighting in the crusades. He was a rich spoilt boy before he left, and no one recognises him. His comes to claim his title, to find that his father has been murdered by the Sheriff of Nottingham.

I can go on if you want.

the story is from 74 you idiot

You are aware that the Batman Begins script was just recycled from a Dr. Strange movie that never got made right?

reply

Didn't we go through this enough with Doctor Strange? Iron Fist's origin story has been around since before Batman Begins or The Man who Falls. And the basic hero's journey story has been around for, like, ever.

reply

Indeed, the Shadow, Tarzan, ...it's a standard origin story.
