Reading Into Things
First the Wall Street Journal posited that The Dark Knight was about the war on terror and that Batman was President Bush. Now this, from New York Post film critic Kyle Smith:
Batman is not charming. He isn't popular, partly because he's a zealot and partly because he doesn't bother to explain himself to the press. He is independently wealthy, having spent years as the head of an industrial company. His methods are disturbing, his operations bathed in darkness. He is misunderstood, mistrusted, endlessly pursued by the attack dogs of the night…. And he lives in an undisclosed location. Isn't it obvious? Batman is Dick Cheney with hair.

Makes you wonder who the Joker is according to this review….hmmmmm I wonder…
I can see what they did here. They probably think Batman would love the Minutemen (guys defending the AZ border).
Please, everyone knows Cheney is a meaner version of Darth Vader.
Guns dont kill people… Dick Cheney kills people. In the face.
I guess it makes some sense. I can see Dick Cheney beating dogs up.
Kates comment makes me think of two particularly annoying bumper stickers I keep seeing: Don't control our guns, parents control your kids. And: Guns don't kill people, cell phones kill people.
Everytime I see those two douches around town I want to slam their cars. I just hope in time my curse upon them will work.
Kate- bwahaha
Or… Batman could be a freedom fighter. And the joker could be some right-wing nut.
Tune in next week.
Same Bat Time.
Same Cunty Channel.

So, cunty grew on you, sar. Are you off to buy Simpson's new cunty album, too?
I saw this awesome bit on The News Hour (pbs) a few nights ago about how these superhero movies are all the rage because they show lonely people who have no one to turn to and who cannot relate to anyone and how we are all just lonely people…or something, dammit I wish I had the link. *sigh* maybe later.
WALL-E is left Batman is right. That's what the media says so it must be true.
Anyways, as long as I don't have to see Dick Cheney in that Batman costume, I'm good.
They're trying to kill my Batman fantasy. I don't want to see Cheney in his Batman leotard.
I doubt Cheney has a Batman costume, but I bet Bush wears Batman underoos.
No, he's Robin.
Bush is more the terror that flaps in the night. While Cheney is the check writer in the cash only lane.
I hate that guy. Plus he's got 20 items in the 15 only lane.
Thats why I always carry a shiv when I go grocery shopping. Pretend to reach for a TV Guide, bump into them and slide it between their forth and fifth rib. I'm no longer allowed to shop at certain stores on senior citizens day.
