It’s not a spoiler to say that Robert “Battinson” (Robert Pattinson) is incredible as Batman/Bruce Wayne, in The Batman (2022). If you’ve seen the new film, then check out our review of The Batman. Given the role that he played in the Twilight saga, it was too tempting not to have some fun. We’ve tried to capture the brilliant actor’s gothic past, and make it fun for you to all read, too . . .
Battinson
Bobby the bat,
how about that? —
and alongside
Zoe the cat!
A gothic past,
so, at long last,
Vamp-Batman when
his shadow’s cast . . .
Those moody eyes,
their perfect size,
show even through
his dark disguise
And ooh, that hair,
a sexy snare,
is hot and bright
as a lit flare
His soul of pain,
ultimate swain,
true Goth-Batman —
undead Bruce Wayne!

“Battinson” is a great example of exactly what May The Verse Be With You was created for! We’re here to mine pop culture and create memorable moments. This was a truly bat-tastic opportunity not to be missed. Robert “Battinson” Pattinson might well be around for awhile yet, as the new Bruce Wayne/Batman. We’ve a feeling he’ll be back, in a sequel! See you next Friday, dear readers!
