I saw it and agree with Gutsby
[quote name="I need clarification"][quote name="Gutsby"]Dent transformation was retarded as fuck, suburbanites don't have the balls to pull the trigger, criminals are good and bad whenever it fits the message in true Dr. Doom teardrop style, moronic sonar deus ex machina. And it goes on and on and on while Batman growls impotently and elbows people in the head inbetween talking heads and entertaining Joker mischief. In trying to make Batman more real, the comic book conventions that facilitate these characters end up being an absurd propellant to a plot that doesn't know which reality it exists in, rendering everything pointless with its dream-logic and dictated necessity for extreme characterization. Drama can't be resolved or driven by juvenile fantasy devices cropping up in the script like inconvenient detours whenever things get tough.[/quote] I'm just sick of comic book movies trying to teach me philosophy or humanity or whatever. Are people essentially good or bad? Does great responsibility come with great power? Does the world need Superman or does he need us? Are gays okay or should we just kill them all or convert them (X-Men)? Enough already - jesus christ if I had a fucking batmobile and batcycle and batcopter and bat boat the last fucking thing I'd be doing is sitting around with the fucking Joker talkin' about life 'n' stuff, just shootin the shit myan. ALSO SUPERMODELS AND PRIMA BALLERINAS (with big tits which primas never have so that was kind of comic-booky but of course we don't explore that because that might be FUN and MEANINGLESS).[/quote]
