Oh, and totally agree, BANE is the best batman villian. They could make 3 movies about him. I mean he fucking broke Batman's back! The whole Bane/Batman/Azrael saga would be amazing.

Personally, my all time favorite portrayal of Batman was Batman: The Animated Series.

Also, I love how this movie doesn't even have BATMAN in the title.

I'm gonna see it next week sometime.

The other versions of the Joker aren't bad. They fit in with the times. Adam West would shit his pants if he had to deal with the new Joker.

haha.

sometimes you just can't get rid of a bomb.

Just saw it for the second time. I actually enjoyed it more the second time around. It gave me more of a chance to kinda sort out how all of the plot twists fit together. It's the kind of film that moves so quick you almost feel overwhelmed by eveything they're hitting you with the first time you see it. Plus some of the dialogue was more interesting the second time around, cause you're more aware of how it foreshadows events later on in the picture. This movie is awesome. Batman is far and away my favorite superhero, and I've been reading the comics for years. It's nice to see this kind of interpretation on screen. It further drives home just how terrible the earlier Batman films were. Even the Tim Burton ones weren't great.

...I know a lot of people who hated Batman Begins who have seen this one and loved it too... so I'm really excited for this. Gonna wait for the crowds to die though, like I said.


Begins was OK. I didn't really like the way the beginning was edited, and I don't really like Liam Neeson.

i don't like cillian murphy either. And obviously Katie Holmes is an idiot.

Not that my dislike of an actor really gets in the way of my enjoying a film.. I just found the film to be a mess.

I know what you mean, but only to an extent. It was a little slow, and didn't have too much action but it was very personal and an origin story for Batman. Which has never been done before. Normally I think some films ruin things when they go into origin stories and they aren't necessary...but with the way they ruined the other batman series...it was necessary.

But it left me wanting more.

& then there was the dark knight.

atsonicpark 07.24.2008 12:52 AM

while I've enjoyed most batman movies to an extent, I always felt tim burton's 1989 batman was the best... I loved the atmosphere in that. But we'll see......

when the crowds die down :)

I'm really excited for the next one. I want to see how Nolan reinvents the Joker, Catwoman, the Penguin, or someone else.

atsonicpark 07.24.2008 12:59 AM

you know who should be the next villian? THE CLOCK KING!

DeadDiscoDildo 07.24.2008 01:01 AM

Bane better than the Joker?

physical strength is NOTHING compared to a mind fuck.

atsonicpark 07.24.2008 01:07 AM

bane fucked his mind.

Bane knew who batman was before batman took his mask off.

Bane released every single villian in the history of Batman from Arkham Asylum to weaken Batman.

Bane did more fucked up shit in a year's worth of stories than Joker has done, period.

Bane, to me, is the ultimate Batman villian. He crippled Batman for 2 years!

He could team up with The Ventriloquist.

atsonicpark 07.24.2008 01:10 AM

How about the mad hatter?!!!!!

Honestly, I want to see a live-action Harleyquinn, guess that ain't happening now eh..

atsonicpark 07.24.2008 01:13 AM

pbradley 07.24.2008 01:21 AM

the clock man was a second rate riddler and the mad hatter a second rate scarecrow

watching them try to explain the ventriloquist in a realistic story is too awesome

atsonicpark 07.24.2008 01:32 AM

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 07.24.2008 01:39 AM

Harley Quinn would rule.
