HPFAN_2 0 Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 any review I read a AICN I take with a grain of salt, afterall not a single person who contributes to that sight has never know any carnal knowledge of a member of the opposite sex, unless its the blow up kind.How right you are to judge someone's opinion based on their sexual encounters.

nightscape94 965 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Keep in mind that a majority of the people who are going to see Batman Begins are, more or less, geeky. Yes, there are going to be the generic action watchers who just want a good ride, but it's hard to ignore the great press this is getting. I just heard Ebert say it's one of the best films of the year. Tim, who realizes he will now get the obligatory response about Ebert being an idiot...

Lurker 5 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Time gave Batman Begins a negative review, they liked parts, but they didn't like other parts, and the lack of a quality villian hurt.Which is really bad considering that Time is a Warners publication.Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 11 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 All layers is a very extreme statement when it comes to movies. Very, very few movies attract all layers. And just of the movie going types I know aqmong my immidiate friends and family, probably about 2/3 are interested in seeing this movie. Though you are right that it does attract more layers than LoTR and ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,338 Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Batman attracks action-loving people which happen to be a pretty big part of the population. It's attracks comic lovers of all sorts. It attracks girls, because Batman is a mysterious dark knight on a horse that might come to their rescue one day. It attracks ... and so on, and so on. ----------------Alex Cremers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romão 2,274 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Yeah, it has nearly ten films. But you must realise that batman also has a huge following in the comics and cartoons. Although in this deabte, I don't think we can never be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeinAR 1,949 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 its not just the films, I'm talking overall contributions to Hollywood, its not just 10 movies, it over 400 episodes on tv, its hundreds of books, graphic novels, toys, memorabilia, etc, its been a cash cow for Paramount for along time.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Batman has been some old cartoon in 1949, the classic but very campy series with Adam West and Burt Ward, the good but overrated 1989 film and 2 follow-ups that range from OK to ridiculous.There have been a whole bunch of cartoon series, i'll grant you that Luke, but most of them are forgotten now.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I watched it a long time ago when it was on TV. I never really noticed the voice of the Joker.

JMan 0 Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I think this movie will be better than all the others. It actually has some sort of story. And besides the potential dullness of the music, the cast will be incredible. I got so sick in the stomach watching Schumacher's version of Batman. What was he ON???

Luke Skywalker 1,795 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 The Batman 90's cartoons, i think are, still being aired on Cartoon Network.Luke is also the Goblin in spider-man cartoons. I have never seen an strak trek toy anyway (appart from amybe micro machines), but i can recall several series batman ones, even spin-offs and so.But anyway i want not to favor either But we are not speaking about an all-time success and one one-timer. Both are successful, so it is dificult to say which is the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Keaton "looked" wrong. He didn't have the Batman features. He's got curly hair, a round face and a woman's mouth. Errrrrr! Again, your sounding otherworldly (for not seeing the obvious) and you're making racist innuendos towards Bale's nationality. ----------------Alex Cremers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
