Movies!

Saw Batman Begins, yesterday. It was as awesome as people say it is! The theater's sound system made some of it too loud, but that didn't even matter, since I was so wrapped up in the story. Now, some of the other Batman movies may have been cool, but their charm lay almost entirely in the villains. None of them humanized their enigmatic lead the way this one did. He was still Batman, but he was also Bruce Wayne, and both incarnations kicked much ass.

Next up on my 'to see' list is Fantastic 4, then Dark Water, when that comes out. Beyond that, I don't know. I was originally planning to see War of the Worlds, but Tom Cruise is pissing me off so much with his drivel that it's off my itinerary. I feel kind of bad for Spielberg, but it's not as though he's hurting for my six bucks. (Perversely, I almost hope he sues Cruise for financial damages, though. Not sure how it'd work, but it's a nice thought.)

...And then, I check the news.

There are no words. Sometimes, the world can really suck.
