<sarcasm>Wow…this is a shocker!</sarcasm>

Per THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER, writer/director Joss Whedon has exited the proposed live-action BATGIRL film.  Why?  Well, the official reason is that Mr. Whedon “didn’t have a story.”  The real reason, is, um, I’ll let you do the easy math on that one.

The report does not say whether or not a new filmmaker will come on board and try to “crack the Batgirl code,” but I think it’s highly unlikely.  Maybe someday someone will come on board and create a great Batgirl film…but I wouldn’t hold my breath on it.  (And sadly, I think the same thing about a Nightwing movie.) – Bill “Jett” Ramey

Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
