  • "Batman Begins".....I fell asleep at the last Bat-flick.

Official pics; click on the pictures to see another page. The five minutes I saw of the last one was perhaps the worst movie I've ever seen.</div>

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>Seriously. The whole movie was a joke. Why they felt the need to include 5-6 main characters, I have no idea.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>The American Psycho as Bruce Wayne, eh? Just make sure to compliment him on the color of his new business cards. I'm not too sure about that abomination they're calling the new Batmobile though...</div>

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>As can I. I like that the focus in this is going to be why he's Batman, not just "He's Batman, now watch him fight." He's dark. I hope the movie shows that.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I'll give it slack, particularly since they're going back to the source and trying to retell the stories, but man, a big-ass tank for Batmobile? That's almost as bad as the lame black uniforms in X-Men</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You're right. Even though it was an "alternate" storyline, it's the best. I mean, a tank for a Batmobile instead of a little dinky car that breaks apart. It'll be the best!</div>
