By the way, if anyone does see this, could you let me know if it's safe for 7 year-olds. Thanks.

The only reason I have any interest in the movie is because of Christian Bale.Originally Posted by YankeeFan1

Don't forget Cillian Murphy as "the Scarecrow". This has to be the single best cast comic book film in history.Originally Posted by RhodyYanksFan
I just saw the movie, it was awesome. Definitely one of the best I've seen in a long time. The 2+ hours seemed to fly by. And it sets up the next one well too.

Batman is smarter, has cooler enemies, and is more realistic. Plus he isn't hurt by being around rocks.Originally Posted by Evil Empire
But he can be hurt if you throw a rock at him.Originally Posted by RhodyYanksFan
The film was GREAT. I wouldn't even qualify my comments by saying it's the best in the genre - it's just a fantastic film, period.
Bale is THE MAN.
WOW. All I can say is WOW. Great movie.

Superman has super logic and wit. It's far superior to any human. Lex Luthor would kick any of the corny Batman villains. And sure Batman isn't hurt by kryptonite, but he can just slip in the shower and die.Originally Posted by RhodyYanksFan
I'll give you the realism, because Superman's an alien.

I've yet to see it but that's all I know so far.

Q: Are these real?
A: Yep, they're all authentic and unaltered. They appear to you today exactly as they did the day they were first published.
Except that whole appearing on a computer screen part..
Out of curiousity, I decided to research one:

Found it as it is pictured:

Batman Begins was excellent. Bale was tremendous as both tormented Bruce Wayne and billionaire a-hole Bruce Wayne.
I'd put it right up there with the Keaton/Nicholson version of Batman. Great movie.

I've never heard of Thundercats, but I loved He-Man! Skeletor ruled, man.Originally Posted by Hitman23
Transformers was OK, too. Other than He-Man, I liked his co-hort, Shera: Princess of Power! It was all about the girl-power.
The other ones I loved were Smurfs, Care Bears, Rainbow Brite, etc. Girly stuff.
Getting back to the topic at hand, I cannot wait to see this movie. It looks damned cool.
Oh, and did I mention that Christian Bale is SMOKIN'?!![]()

Saw it last night, imo the best Batman flick ever. The only issue I had was how dumb Katie Holmes' character was, I'm not sure if it was her fault in being a bad actress or the way that her character was written that made her suck. The villain was great, the screenplay was well-written and adapted to screen. Bale is Batman, screw Keaton. There were a few things I didn't like, the bat-tank is a little much, also the way the main crisis of the movie was never really resolved I mean how did all the people return to normal? They never really answer that question, did they all die, WTF? Anyways, other than that it ruled, I'll likely see it again.

I loved Burton's BATMAN, but I"d have to slot this one ahead of it. Chris Nolan is a much better storyteller than Tim Burton.Originally Posted by IntangiblesRule
The Burton Batman is all about Jack as The Joker. I thought he was unbelievable in that role, it made it an awesome movie.Originally Posted by BronxByTheBay
Bale is the best of the Batmans though, This was a great movie. I'm actually tempted to see it again and I hardly ever go see movies twice in the theatre.
sXe!

agreed. if it wasn't for him the movie would have sucked.Originally Posted by IntangiblesRule

Same here. I think I may have to go again Sunday.Originally Posted by IntangiblesRule
I know fanboys were angry over Nicholson's Joker, but I thought he was great. That character scared the crap out of me the first time I saw the movie.
The problem with Burton's BATMAN movies is they were awful the moment the "action/adventure" portions kicked in. Burton can't direct action to save his life.
I feel bad for whoever plays the Joker in the next Batman movie in this series. Huge shoes to fill.Originally Posted by Hitman23

In all honesty it would be unfair to even try to compare them. i won't.Originally Posted by IntangiblesRule
IMO, Burton's rendition was way off and has nothing to do with the real story. I won't compare this to the others in any way. Entirely new to me.

"Even though sometimes I can really be a monster... today, I'm just a sea monster."
That I disagree with. Nolan is going to get a legit actor, not a "special effects" personality (a Nicholson-type would look stupid in one of these films now).Originally Posted by IntangiblesRule
It's almost a shame Gary Oldman was cast as Gordon. He'd make a fantastic Joker.
Even though this movie is closer to the real Batman story, it is inevitable that there will be comparisons to the performance. It is only natural when two guys play the same character.Originally Posted by Hitman23
As long as whoever it is doesn't try and do an impression of Jack I think he'll be fine.

I actually liked Batman Returns better than the first one.Originally Posted by IntangiblesRule
MEOW!

Oldman does play a great psycho...then again he really is a psycho.
Crispin Glover would be a good Joker too.
