in the news
So I love the news app in iGoogle. Its an awesome little tool, it sorts the news by category and then picks the top story of the top stories to display a title and a thumbnail. Today in US news all 6 of the top stories are election related. Its a bit insain really.
Obama wanted to make a huge grandstand display of his VP pick, he had texting and e-mail and a slew of online people following it. But the problem was... with everyone following it and the big to do, there was a leak, and slowly over 2 days information about his pick was trickled out and that suspenseful moment became more of a dull moment.
On the other side McCain whisks his candidate secretly outa Alaska and bombs the US and the internet with a left field VP pick.
I did a little research and finally found the moment I was looking for
Batman Forever. Two-face busts a party and starts demanding money and what not as a ploy to lure in Batman, the Riddler gets a bit incensed at the wanton destruction without prior notification. And then Batman comes crashing in through the ceiling glass descending like an avenging angel of destruction landing in a fountain and pulls off this flip kick taking out two hench men shooting automatic weapons.
And the Riddler says. "Your entrance was good, his was better."
Obaman, Your entrance was good, his was better.
Kudos McCain you won the VP entrance spectacular.
While viewing the scene a few thoughts came to me. This was the first really flashy colorful, Hi-jinks filled Batman movie with lots of gunfire back and forth style repertoire. It was silly and circus like.
Just like this year's election campaign. You've got a crazy old guy with two faces and funky smirks, and an excitable young guy with lots of word play that wont shut up.
So... Where the hell is our Batman?
