Holy shit, Batman...another one? WTF? So soon? What the hell is going on?

Another end to a scorching day...and I felt like writing...something. OM has suggested that I get back to TRFW and, hopefully, I'll have a new chapter very soon...maybe tomorrow...no promises.

 So, how about that anti-semetic politician who found out he's actually Jewish? Don't tell me that the universe doesn't have a sense of humor!! The first thought after the giggles faded was of Dave Chappelle and that great skit he did about the old black man and his 'hatred'...more giggles!

 Watched TDKR last night and was stunned...I think it was that good! Three phenominal Batman movies from Nolan and now we only have to hope that the studio doesn't screw it up when they launch the enevitable reboot!  This has been a wild ride for super hero movies. After the staggering high of the Avengers and the 'swing and a miss' of TAS, I was a little worried that Nolan might not pull it off but he sure did. While I don't think it packed quite the emotional punch that The Dark Knight did, it was still a stunning movie and it must be amazing in IMAX. What's next for us nerds...yeah, I lump myself into the category...as long as crotchety old men can still be nerds...hopefully there isn't an age or weight requirement. I know Kick-Ass II, Ironman III, Thor II, Captain America II and, of course, Avengers II are all coming but it's gonna be a while so what's next on the horizon? Daredevil reboot...not happening...at least not as soon as some had been hoping. Wolverine II?..a little worried about that one. The next in The Xmen:First Class? Looking forward to it but, like everything else, it's a while away. The next Dykan Dogg? Hah, just kidding...unless we give the log the perfect acting counterpart...wait, isn't Misha Barton supposedly doing better...health wise, I mean...there's a team-up we need! Just got around to watching RED...what a fun ride!

 I'm gonna watch The Amazing SApiderman again...this will be the third time but I fear that I'm not gonna find anything that I missed the first two times that will change my opinion of the movie...sorry, it just wasn't 'my Peter Parker'! Sure, the movie is splashy but Peter was never a bully and he never would have given his word and then conciously admitted his plan to break his word. The real Peter might have inadvertantly broken his word or a promise but he'd never have done what the movie peter admitted his plans to do at the end of the film...breaking his word to a dying Captain Stacey...and don't get me started on a dying Captain Stacey because that would only lead to so many other mis-steps that happened during the two hours.

 Ouch, just tweeked my back...time to take my tired old bones home and get off these aching dogs. Ta for now.      JT
