A much more Tim Burtonesque picture than 1989s "Batman;" complete with freaks, bizarre architecture and Danny Elfman's wacky scoring.  I thought that it was funny that Batman is a minor character and almost entirely superfluous to the story.  I'm not a huge fan of the dark, brooding take on Batman (my favorite interpretation will always be the television series); but Tim Burton manages to infuse this with enough fun to make it one of the better Batman movies.

:thumbsup:

I guess that includes the '60s movie.  :P

Binged Season 1 of Succession. Highly under-rated HBO show. It's very good.

I don't think it's underrated? He's got pretty of recognition.

Every year I forget about the /slash film festival in Vienna until it's too late. <_<

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Does that mean it is...good? Terrible? Something else?

That's my emotional journey in the first few episodes.

After 22 years I finally watched Titanic.  Beautiful movie that was definitely a passion project.  I enjoyed it thoroughly, but it has a lot of problems when you look beyond the surface.  So many parts have become entwined with pop culture references now that it is strange watching them in their original place.
"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

Binged Succession and I'm fully caught up. Really great show, and genuinely funny too.

It was really good and he was emotionally moved by the puppets.
