Batman, Begin Again
Here's my Christmas present to JohnGalt: yet another admission that he is right about something.
I rented and re-watched "Batman Begins" this weekend, based on his comments correcting a review I posted a few weeks ago. Upon further review, what I had seen as soppy altruism was misguided.
I'll also revise my positive review upward as well. It's indeed a good movie.
The rest of you, however, are still all wrong! Merry Christmas!
What a thoughtful and heartwarming gift, JK. Merry Christmas to you as well!
P.S. I received a DVD of Serenity for Christmas. Perhaps you'd like to make me 2 for 2?
Posted by: johngalt at December 25, 2005 9:00 PMA ThreeSources search for "Serenity" yields 12 posts. Admitting I have a problem is a start...
I read each and can't really see a substantive disagreement. We have an ongoing disparity that I think is half language and half philosophy. This difference turns up in our attempt to ascribe motive to Mal.
Otherwise, our reviews are very similar. I did preorder it and enjoyed watching it again. I have not heard Joss Whedon's commentary yet; that's next. Problem? I don't have a problem, I can quit anytime.
