Just saw the new Batman film and it did not disappoint. The mayor was the same actor who played the Bat-Manuel character (a mexican batman) from the Tic tv series. I thought that was a fun little tidbit.
also check out this interesting article about the message of hero status in the movie. This along with 300 are about, as David Whitley would say, "full grown men". People who are willing to do the things we don't like to talk about, so that we might enjoy the freedoms we have and sleep all cozy in our bed in our big fancy houses and bad-mouth politicians who aren't doing a good job. So thanks to those men and women in our military and police forces. God bless you.
Bush and Batman
Plus 2 of my favorite quotes from the movie that illustrate the above point.
Lt. James Gordon: Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now...and so we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector...a dark knight.
Bruce Wayne: People are dying, Alfred. What would you have me do?
Alfred Pennyworth: Endure, Master Wayne. Take it. They'll hate you for it. But that's the point of Batman, he can be the outcast. He can make the choice that no one else can make, the right choice.
