When is Batman Begins going to begin, Batman? **.5

Jun 17, 2005 01:53

So as a Batgeek, I was naturally psyched for Batman Begins. The last 2 movies were absurd turds directed by a gay dude who apparently thought that the old colorful camped-up tv series was a wet dream to use for his own personal cinematic homosexual overtone-laden playground. The trailer for Begins made me wary for various nitpicky reasons: Bale's ( Read more... )

Okay, I desperately tried not to read any of this, as I haven't seen the movie... although some fuckass in a community I'm in posted the "joker card" part for all the world to see and if they were standing in front of me I would have clocked the fucker w/ a club wrapped in rusty barb wire. DON'T FUCKING POST THAT SHIT THE DAY AFTER THE MOVIE CAME OUT, YOU IDIOT. I'm trying to put it from my mind, but it's impossible... it's all I'm going to think about until I see the movie and the credits roll. Fucking asswipe. Anyway, I glanced and notice two things... one, Katie Holmes was completely pointless... and I haven't even seen the movie. Why can't they just have a movie w/ a girl??? I mean, come the fuck on. Unless you're going to do a Bat-porn, leave the bitch out. Two:

Gary Oldman, chameleon motherfucker, as Jim Gordon. This guy must hate his face, because you can never tell it's him anymore in anything he does.Gary Oldman is fucking amazing, all the time, in everything he does. He completely disappears into his roles... for ( ... )

Although the joker card thing isn't exactly inventive and is more of a cheesy sequel setup than anything, that was douchey to give it away. Even lame reviewers aren't divulging that info ( ... )

Screw corporate crap. What's wrong w/ just making a movie worth my while? (Did I just say that? When did I get so naive?) Katie Holmes needs to go back to the River of wherever Dawson was. Female demographic my Heineken... I'm female (duh.) and a few of my other female friends were annoyed as all shit by her.

...and is among the few who could pull off eating a piece of his own brain...

pssst... Ross... that was Ray Liotta that ate his own brain... Gary got devoured by man-hungry wild boars...

One of my favorite Gary roles is him as Drexl the pimp in True Romance. Of course it's also one of my favorite movies as well, so that helps.

Oops, my bad. I'm still not up on Oldman. Well, Liotta was a good brain-eater, too. And True Romance, along w/12 Monkeys, contains one of the few Brad Pitt performances that I can tolerate.

Demographics are like bad stereotypes, and studios unfortunately still insist that they're a useful tool to define the audience.

pssst... w/o a girl... but I'm sure you knew I meant that... I get excited when I'm mad and I can't type... ;)

I have to teach you to use the LJ-CUT.
PS...who's pete anyway ?

Re: for the love of pete. gulliblemcfly June 18 2005, 00:56:24 UTC

Yeah, I'm not well-versed in LJ specifics.

Pete is apparently a guy whose love is the gold standard to which all love is compared.

Re: for the love of pete. isavedlatin June 18 2005, 02:05:16 UTC

Visit the FAQ and looks for info on LJ specific tags.
LJ-CUT will make people who list you as a friend ALOT HAPPIER. Which is not to say Im unhappy but this was a BIG entry, you know ? Nothing but love Ross!

Don't worry, I didn't know for a long time myself... there is the link for lj-cuts and they are a godsend... especially when referring to spoilers in movies or posting naughty pictures for those that read this stuff at work.
