Yup. As I've been saying, this movie universally reduces otherwise intelligent, eloquent fans to puddles of squeeing incoherence (well, and then we pick ourselves up and write an analytical review).

LOVED this movie. Love it. Still high from seeing it Saturday. Must see it multiple times.

I took the light rail home even though I already have a pass for the PATH because the light rail runs entirely above ground and would allow me to call my friends and go "AAAH! BATMAN! AAAAH! GARY OLDMAN! LIAM NEESON! I BELIEVE! GAAAAAAAAAAH! BATMAN!", whereas the subway, well, no dice.

So. Pretty.

(In the sense of Penn and Teller's use of the word, namely: wasn't that put together just amazingly well?)

*chortles with glee*

Yes, it was! I saw it this evening, too!

At last! Another comic book film adaptation done with some fucking care and respect!

YES. YES YES YES. GAH, AND IT'S SEXY, TOO.

I heard that Bale looked on the movie as a horror story, and played the role like that... I got to see a sneak preview, and was quite happy with the results... except for the technobabble that Morgan Freeman spews in that one scene....

[camwyn]

I was happy to ignore the technobabble. Bale was wonderful. (Didn't hurt that he looked like my karate teacher, either.)

my sweetie and i just sort of *looked* at each other.... and went back to enjoying the movie...

what i really liked about it was the way they explained how the batman came to be, instead of just having him pop up, fully formed, like athena from the brow of zeus (i've always wanted to use that phrase :) )

...oh. god. SO MUCH ICON-LOVE.

Goosebumps, these right here.

Remember when we had a couple of discussions about how Buffy was acting like Batman?

[estherthegb]

Heck yeah!

No spoilers allowed!

Please! I beg abjectly!

Re: **ENVY**

[camwyn]

No worries. Just the incoherent squeeing and maybe the occasional actor name because AAAAAAAAAAAH OMFG LIAM NEESON AAAAAH type of thing.

Re: **ENVY**

[sundre.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Squee as much as necessary. Just don't tell me what happens, cause I can't go see til next week.

By then we can probably put together a squee chorus.

GARY OLDMAN. GARY AS JAMES GORDON NOT AS CRAZY GARY OLDMAN. AS JAMES GORDON.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

Re: **ENVY**

This is probably one of the best things ever. For years, I've been saying he can't act, because he's always crazy Gary Oldman. Color me so impressed when I saw James Gordon and not Gary Oldman.

Re: **ENVY**

[erisiansaint]

Even better: I didn't recognize him as Gary Oldman. I kept wondering who he was, all the way through. That's acting!

Re: **ENVY**

[jeditigger.livejournal.com]

I spent about the first day telling people how bloody wonderful Gary Oldman was as Jim Gordon. To see a GOOD Gordon, not the bumbling oaf he's become in too many adaptations.

Oh, for. Here is a shiny toy to distract you. I don't think it'll work for long.

An open letter (http://www.venganza.org/) to a school board about teaching Intelligent Design in the schools. There are pirates involved.

Re: **ENVY**

[camwyn]

Ooo. Pirates!

[vaspider]

So you liked it, then?

[camwyn]

I would not object to seeing it again, I think might be a good way to put it.

[condotierre.livejournal.com]

I am immune to squee. Usually.
But I'll say, AYUP. This deserves it.

[sarekofvulcan.livejournal.com]

I take it I should try to catch this in IMAX?

[camwyn]

Damn skippy.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_darkknight_/]

Yes?

[camwyn]

Sir, as a native of New York and a resident of the urban ramble across the water, allow me to say that after last night's chronicles, I salute you wholeheartedly. Well done, sir.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_darkknight_/]

* nods *

Stay clear of trouble.

[camwyn]

Yessir.
