Just got back from seeing this and I am not impressed at all, it was a good film but thats about it. Bale was a good batman but not so much better that he blew keaton out of the water and the 1989 version still is the best because of Nicholson. Liam Neeson was stiffer than kevin costner in... well kevin costner in any film. Neeson was trying to pull off the older, wiser, teacher figure but without the older and wiser credibility. The origins part was interesting and much better done, it wasnt overblown and gaudy like the others but thats what gotham city is. It got silly naturally after the first 2 but to me 1989's batman is still the better one.
Also all this talk about darkness is being so overused this year, star wars is darker, batman is darker.... nothing is ever going to be "darker" in movies ever again with all the PC mumbo jumbo and parent groups, etc. There really is nothing dark about either of these films but I liked both.

It was ok, it was a good movie in theory but I still say keaton was as good but the thing that sets the original batman apart was Nicholson as the villain. The league of shadows is barely explained or portrayed and scarecrow is assigned to basically being a cronie. Katie Holmes character is pointless, it wasnt even important to profile or make it such a big character. I liked that they showed the origin a bit better than the original with the building of the batcave from scratch but the batmobile was just ridiculous and gotham city looked like chicago.

i thought the joker killed his parents. Do they just make up "beginnings" movie to movie?
06-21-2005, 07:26 PM
well they are saying that this film has nothing to do with the previous 4 films, so the joker and all that stuff has no bearing on this film. This is a new beginning, hence the title, I was never a big batman fan so honestly I dont remember who killed his parents but I dont think it was the joker to be honest.
Though they tease the joker at the end of the film when Gordon names him as one of the people who escaped arkham asylum and shows him his "greeting card" as the joker card. Though if they do a sequel with the joker as the villian it will be a huge mistake, you cant improve on Nicholsons performance.

i think they've already signed on for the sequel and the joker is supposed to be the villain. but katie holmes won't be in it.

I refuse to watch this movie knowing that they just said "poof; the other movies never happened"
06-22-2005, 01:57 AM
good reason. also because it sucks

Christian Bale and Michael Cain are signed for 3 more fliks I think.
I beleive its cause comic movies are the new hype of Hollywood, all the comic movies out there are mostly MARVEL, DC has no other major movie franchises, and Batman Forever and Batman & Robin sucked so badly that they decided to do the whole mythology again.

next film should be batman shoving his bat sausage in katie holmes ass because she discovers tom cruise is gay and is in a mid-life crisis.

Katie Holmes seems horribly miscast in this movie. Is it just me or does anyone else feel this way ?
She'll always be lil Joey Potter to me.

It's not that she's miscast, her character serves no purpose. Her character at best should have been a very small role with little screen time. She's not a love interest so she just serves no purpose in the film other than the chick he hung out with when he was a kid, big whoop.

Can't they just think of a concept for a new superhero then the same five assholes they've been recycling for 50 years. How about something like Mongoose Boy?
