I saw it, well, I saw half of it (and not either of the halves you'd think!*), and until I've seen the other half, I can't really comment on it. Looked a little like a blipvert** to me.

*Someone had punched in Ceefax page 606 and taken the remote out of the room!

**But without the exploding couch potato side-effect.

I watched Batman Returns last night - and then I watched the Batman Begins trailer twice.
I even thought about making a Batman Begins thread

I hope the movie is long, at least two hours.
I really wanna see Batman and get to know him. Ghaaa

I really think Batman Returns is underrated (allthough I can see why people dont like it).
It's very very Burton-ish. And has alot of sexual.. tension.

Friend of mine is in this - he plays a mental patient at Arkham. I have to see it for that reason alone.

Is it based on a particular comic arc?

Year One, kinda.

Basically they're using it as inspiration, while charting their own new story.

In any case we're being promised The Dark Knight, and not Nipple Batsuits.

I gotta say.. I feel more comfortable with Christopher Nolan, then Joel Schumacher.

I've just read The Killing Joke.
Excellent stuff. Really interesting (I suck at reviewing stuff).

Next up: The long halloween

And how's Year One? Good, great, okey?

Oh and "Year One" is probably the best Batman book out there!

that bat mobile just looks a bit over the top?

I mean all someones gotta do is drive down a narrow street - sorry a normal width street and u lost hi, unless Batmans up for driving over parked cars...

Yeah, it looks more like a Bat-tank.
But here's my thought: He's new to all this hero-stuff. Maybe he thought "I'm a ******* hero. I want a big ass tank to scare the crooks!" or something.
I dont know. I think I sound rather silly to be honest

Man, I hate reading my own posts. I sound like a buffon.

Anyways... this is what the Scarecrow might look like in Batman. ('it's a walkie talkie by the way)

Scarecrow sketch.

Predabot · Post by **Predabot** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 11:20 am

Eh, I'm not digging it. Maybe in the movie he'll look cool and disturbing, but looking at that rather lame toy, and that sketch he just looks silly. It's like, what? A guy in a suite with a bag on his head? I get that every day here on TransFans, you know. I've seen better designs of Scarecrow. Luckily he ain't the main villain.

Obfleur · Post by **Obfleur** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 11:59 am

I read a post on another forum. It went a little somthing like this (Run D.M.C

) "This is just the beginning of Scarecrows carrer, bla bla.. thats why he doesnt have his full costume".

Reasonable enough. I rather dig suits though.

Impressive cast, from what I read... Ra's, Scarecrow,Zsazs even Joe Chill is mentioned...

Great link impy

The technology of the Batsuit is a piece of art! They almost make me believe that Batman could acctually work and exist in real life..

Batman doesnt dance anymore...

Old dancing Batman gives me the creeps.

I saw "Batman the movie" a couple of nights ago, together with two friends.
Awful movie

"Quick, hand me the shark repellent batspray!"

What the [composite word including 'f*ck']?!

According to imdb.com, Batman Begins will be 134 minutes long.
Seems to me that they are actually trying to make a real movie

(compared to Alien VS Predator 'action guns hey woooo' 101 minutes).

Wha??

AvP was ok. Nothing spectacular, but still good.

And Hellboy?? Hellboy was wicked cool. Good story, good character development, plenty o' action.......i thought it was cool...

Impy's just taking the mick-there was a Hellboy discussion a little while ago where he made his feelings about the film known.

It's the only existing Batman film I really like—first one has too much devoted to setting the scene, everything after the second has been ****. I like the Batman concept, but find most of the villain roster disinteresting. The same goes for most 'hero' series.

Recurrent villains need a better explanation than perpetual escape from captivity.
