After watching the full trailer I am even more excited to see this. They have the British actor that played Micheal in "Waking Ned Devine", as Charlie's grandfather. I absolutely adore him. He was so cute in Ned Devine!

I like Beauchan...

....but it still makes my ass twitch to hear Batman compared to Willy Wonka.


Thanks, I think. It was the only comparison that I could think of at the moment I wrote it.

I am not looking forward to this movie at all. The trailers I've seen make it seem like utter crap.

Maybe when it inevitibly comes out on HBO or Cinemex three months after the theaters. I'm expecting it to bomb like Cat in the Hat.

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

Cat in the Hat had no genuis behind it... Mike Meyers? Bleh. Best thing he ever did was Sprockets!

Snoota had this to say about Robocop:
No, it's just a new Batman movie. It has nothing to do with any previous Batman movies.

I never said it had anything to do with the previous movies... She more or less said it had something to do with previous movies since it was a 'retelling'.

I said it was a missing chapters type deal. Since it is basically covering a part of Batmans life that was typically left alone, ie: His move into becoming Batman. Where as Beau said it was a retelling of his story, which nothing is being retold, since its covering new area.

Nitpickery will get you nowhere. It is a retelling of the Batman story. It's just focusing on certain elements, and modifying others. Ras was in no way connected to Bruce's training, for instance. Just like Willy Wonka/Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are telling essentially the same story with different emphases.

I just twitch at the idea of comparing BATMAN (caped crusading dark knight of Gotham, badass supreme, scares even other heroes) with Willy Wonka (WONKAVISION!)

I mean...Willy Wonka's like two steps away from being a villain on the old Adam West Batman TV show.
