Batman Discussion

I won't be reading it because I haven't been able to go yet, but I suspect a goodly number of you have already partaken in the latest Batman flick that taunts me. Mocks me. And knows that I don't have time today or probably any time this week (unless there is a movie theater near the OSCON venue?) Anyway -- here is the official place to talk about the biggest geek movie out until the X-Files comes out next week, and I have similar frustrations.

    I'm watching Mamma Mia instead - it was gurls! ;)

    I mean, don't get me wrong, Christian Bale is a good actor; but to be honest, when it comes to movies about the Black Knight, I don't really think that anybody can top Martin Lawrence's performance.

    A capable movie does not need an 8 story tall movie screen to show us how large its penis is. A great movie is better on imax, but still good as a grainey cam in the lower right hand of your laptop screen while you do an instance raid.
