before we saw "wedding crashers", molly and i went to the christian bale show. i think it was called "batman benign" or something like that.
needless to say, i wasn't that impressed. it was entertaining - i will admit. clearly, christian bale didn't hurt its standing either, but i want more from movies than entertainment. it's just not enough.
what i did learn from this movie, though, is that while batman may have muscles and martial arts and cars and gadgets and models for girlfriends and a super hot gay name in the real world (helloooooo, bruce wayne), he does not have the smarts that i do. while he was busy chasing down his trainjacking nemesis, i would have called the damn cta and cut the power to the train.
i hope i didn't hurt his feelings. if i did, though, i'd be more than happy to kiss and make up.

lets agree to disagree, champ. to me, Batman Begins transcended the superhero genre, which is all too often, full of fluff. this one was dark and psychological and stands on its own as a great movie. it wasnt just mindless fun, as i felt War of the Worlds was, for the most part.
(i also might be biased toward Christopher Nolan since i think Memento is one of the wickedest cool mindfuk movies ever made.)
