katikatI plan to go and see TDKR this weekend so I thought it was time to, you know, actually see how it all began? :P
My favorite part was when Bruce started making all his gadgets and Alfred hovered in the background, all indulgent. That was the best and funniest bit.
My least favorite part was the beginning. Talk about sloooooooow.
Liam Neeson's role reminded me of his playing Qui-Gon Jin. Weren't they quite similar? I bet all the sword work he had to learn for Star Wars really helped here :P
You know what would be awesome? If Joseph Gordon-Levitt played the boy Batman kept running into throughout the movie. That would be fun. DO NOT TELL ME ANYTHING, though. Spoil me for TDKR and DIE! But that would be so awesome, just sayin'...
You know what's the best part of watching a Chris Nolan movie? Playing the "Spot the Actor" game since he loves to work with the same cast again and again. In BB, it was: Hey, Ken Watanabe! Hey, Cillian Murphy! BTW, speaking of Cillian Murphy, I liked him here much better than in Inception where he played such a crybaby it got on my nerves.
Whom did I like best, though? Jim Gordon! Gary Oldman was surprisingly funny. So far, I've seen him only in very serious roles. But here? When he was driving the Batmobile? LOL! Oh, and isn't it funny that he has been in 3 movies with Tom Hardy already? How awesome is that?
I didn't like Rachel. I didn't like her in TDK and I didn't like her in BB. I admired her dedication but her self-righteousness rubbed me the wrong way. Also, I don't like Katie Holmes OR Maggie Gyllenhaal :(
Verdict? Yeah, Tim Burton's Batman with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson is still my favorite. THAT Gotham was CREEPY!
I hope to see TDK tomorrow. We'll see how it goes...
