Batman Begins

I bought that movie Batman Begins and watched it for the first time last night. That was an awesome movie, it was defenitly the best of all the Batman movies.

Yap. I watched it when it first came out and then about 2 weeks ago went and saw it at the $2 movies. Good both times.

I grew up loving Batman and when I saw the movie previews I hated the way that the new batmobile looked. I've been getting sick of all the liberties that these movie producers, writers and directors have been taking with their movies when it comes to comics and the sort. I've got to admit though, I really think that the Batmobile in the movie was really cool. It really worked for me once I saw the movie.

I can't wait for Willie Wonka to come out on DVD, I heard it's awesome.

Batmobile was pretty cool. Everything was more high-tech than the previous movies. That kinda takes away from the previous movies, but I still like them and this one.

I too thought it was the best of the bunch. A much more logical (yet still far-fetched) explanation of his background and where all his toys come from. The only let down was the bad guy. But even that wasn't so bad.
I saw it at the movies when it first came out, but will be buying it soon.

I haven't seen it yet, but the turn off for me in the previews was the fact that the "beginning" movie had better equipment than the "ending" movie. Thats like the airforce going back to prop planes. Besides, that big ol' thing in the previews didn't look very fuel efficient and with the price of fuel these days I think batman should be a little more practical.

Screw it, anytime you've got dual 44" Swampers on the back of ANYTHING it's a good movie. I really liked the first 2 Batman movies but it all went downhill from there. I was really glad to see this one was a little darker and got back to the Batman roots. And I do like the gadget explanation as well!

Chris,

Everyone's views on movies are different, but I wouldn't waste my money on Willie Wonka...we saw it at the theater and pretty much thought it was worthless. Afterall, Gene Wilder is a tough act to follow - Johnny Depp's protrayal of Willie was just WEIRD!

Regards,
Scott
