lainy122 and I go to see Batman Begins. Two and a half hours later, the credits roll, and we literally curl up into little balls and go eeeeeeeeeeeee.

I was expecting this to be really good, and it was better than I expected. There are a couple of minor flaws but nothing too serious. I fucking loved it. I got SUCH a kick out of Gotham; Burton's Gotham was great but so small, this Gotham is vast and awful and believable. Arkham and Scarecrow played such a big role! Burton's movies on the whole had fantastic elements and are wonderful camp, but were seriously flawed; this was well scripted, well acted, great production design, exciting (if a little confusing but that's Batman, right?) action, the whole caboodle, and probably the best superhero movie I've seen. Damn! I can't think coherently at the moment but I am just so happy to see Batman, the first ever superhero I fangirled, get such a great treatment onscreen.

Bale will be my movie Batman for ever and ever. Every movie I see him in I love him more. I'm off to see The Machinist tomorrow and I can't wait.

I have also decided that the world NEEDS a movie about the road-trip exploits of Harley and Ivy. It would be very lesbian and hilarious and fun.
