Once more unto the breach...

Ok, new day... and the pics are now working (Thanks very much to strovei and his suggested picture hosting site, www.pix8.new - very clutch site). Scroll down to previous entries to see them all.

Now on to my current bitch of the day.

As many of you may or may not know, there is a new Batman film coming out the summer of 2005. It is entitled "Batman Begins" and has nothing to do with the previous movies (thank god). It will follow the begining of his career, as the title suggests.

It has many things going for it... acclaimed comics and screenwriter David Goyer (Blade, Dark City, JSA) wrote the script. Director Christopher Nolan (Memento, Insomnia) is directing. Christian Bale is Batman. Gary Oldeman is Commissioner. Gordon, Morgan Freeman is Lucius Fox, Ken Wantanabe (Last Samauri) is Ra's Al Ghul.

Then again it has some downsides - Not adhering to strick continuity, Katie Holmes as the love interest.

This godawful Batmobile:




and now, what was supposed to be an "old school" Batsuit looks like a parade float.



For Chrissake, is it THAT fuckin' hard to make a black and gray Kevlar suit with white lenses for the eyes? It fuckin' must be, 'cause they've been fucking up this uniform in love action films/TV for over 30 years now.

Damn it.
