Ain't It Cool News wrote:And I’d like to congratulate Warner Bros. and DC for not only making a great BATMAN film, but also for raising the stakes on how adult and affecting a comic book movie can be. Since 1997, Warner Bros. has taken a lot of sht from every comic fan on the planet, and for this particular moment, all of that should stop. BATMAN BEGINS is a potent piece of pop mythology, confident, commercial, and mainstream as hell, but not at all what I expected when I walked into the theater last Thursday night.

I'm not one to hype over anything, but I feel pretty safe in hyping for this one.

As do I. A friend went and saw it. She highly recommended it, so I really need to get to the movies.

***SPOILER***

I liked it. I wasn't overwhelmed by it, but I'm pretty jaded when it comes to movies based on comics. I hope they didn't really kill off Ra's Al Ghul. He is one of my favorite characters from the comics, though they changed him quite a bit in the movie.

***SPOILER***

I think he did die, but it's part of his power that he get's ressurected in the lazerous pits.

***SPOILER***

i think its hard to say if his character will be back or not. since this is revamping of the movies i can't tell if they will follow the 'use a villian only once' idea or start working people back in. i'm really hoping the scarecrow is in the next movie. i mean we really only get to see his origin and not the full blown evil villian. i think we need to see him again in his whole costume kicking ass. along side the joker that it.

No worries. Just protecting those that want to see the movie soon.

i didn't think my post really contained spoilers. i was just kind of commenting on how the batman movies use characters only once and don't bother trying to connect their films in any other way then using the same hero. but i do hope i didn't spoil anything for anyone. sorry.
