Did anyone notice that Katie Holme's nipples were poking through her shirt for the entire movie? I did.

Yum.

Anyways, I don't feel like reading this entire thread, but the pace was very.. interesting. The whole film just felt like nothing ever had closure - take for example, Bruce falling into the icy lake - it came almost out of nowhere and it didn't even show the splash when he went completely in.

It almost felt like they cut off the ends off all the scenes to make the whole movie shorter. I'm guilty of that in some of my own films.

Well, it set for a very interesting pace.

And god was there some awful fake facial hair. It was bad. Christ.

Aside from that and the really confusing overall story I still don't get, it was a good movie and I'd recommend it.

I was too busy sighing in relief at the absence of nipples on a different character.

Oh, and I laugh at people who complain about the movie because it had Ra's Al Ghul involved in Batman's training. You think the average moviegoer who never read any Batman graphic novels cares about something like that? A movie is supposed to be judged on its own terms. Otherwise, people would be saying that Black Hawk Down, Schindler's List, Lord of the Rings and The Bourne Identity all sucked horribly.

And thirdly...I think Ra's Al Ghul is the Dread Pirate Roberts. We'll see if the later movies confirm that.

Well, they did...but let's not get into that.

Well I actually did like the LoTR movies. Minus the Two Towers since they cut the beginning off and stuck it to the end of The Fellowship and cut the end off the stuck it to Return of the King. First Bourne Identity was pretty good. Can't say the same for the 2nd.

I just saw I Heart Huckabees a few minutes ago which I really enjoyed. But then again I spend a lot of my time reading philosophy books...

Off the top of my head:
Pulp Fiction
Resevoir Dogs
Donnie Darko
Old Boy
3-Iron
Happy Gilmore
Tonari no Totoro
Save the Green Planet
Akira

I just didn't like Batman Begins. I just guess nothing can live up to TAS's Batman for me. But even so, I really disliked this movie. The reaction I'm seeing from you guys is like when Forever first came out and everyone I knew (though must take into account was in elementary school at the time) thought it was the greatest movie ever. And now it's being dismissed as a joke of a movie...though is actually probably the closet to the comics you can get storyline-wise.

Was that a remark at me or something? Or just stating that you're 16 and can't rent them yourself?

Well, I only noticed when she was in the basement/sub level of Arkham. And the end scene with that silk shirt.

Well actually they got what they needed from him falling in the icy water, there was no need to show anymore.

And what they wanted to show was the fact that Bruce doesn't mind his surroundings, which came back to haunt him in the mansion later on.

I thought a lot of scenes had closure, more than most folks would of wanted. The bum with the coat. The kid with the bat-gadget and so forth.

What wasn't there to get? The only part I could see even a little bit confused at is the whole Ducard/Ra's thing but eh.

Well, I don't know of anyone who talked about Forever that much, heck I don't remember folks talking about many movies.

But I think Forever has lost its luster over the years. I mean at the time it was probably a good movie, but now we all see it marked the beginning of the end. Though. I always thought it was a decent movie just never lived up to the first two.

As much as you say you dislike this movie, maybe its just me but you can't really give a good reason.. well not a good one.. just.. one that isn't minor.. you said you don't like the voice.. shouldn't ruin the entire movie as Batman probably has about 10-15 minutes of talk time total in the movie.

And him being a lack of detective.. but you prefer the Burton films which is like an oxymoron... but eh

The movie was fantastic, but like Dyne, the pace seemed a bit rushed in some parts. I loved it though. 10/10 easy.

Fox 6 · 06-26-2005, 12:56 AM

Freaking awesome movie! 10/10 easily. Christian Bale did a superb job.

EDIT: I think the voice he did as Batman was great. Batman was ment to put an image of fear into the criminals. Now the dark gritty voice helped to fill that dark character needed to strike fear into the hearts of criminals. Batman didn't take any s**t in this movie and it was awesome, but at the same time he showed compassion to allow them for justice to take its proper course.
