I have a feeling we'll be doing this forever

Would that it were so...

I wrote two mini-reviews for movies this summer, one for Kung-Fu Panda and one more for its direct competition, WALL-E.  I actually had to write two for WALL-E, because of the multiple ways to watch the movie.

I'm not even going to try to write anything for The Dark Knight.

The movie - no, the film is too complex, too nuanced, and simply too good for some rank amateur critic like me to try to explain everything I thought was good about it.

If a comic book movie will ever get an Oscar for something besides effects or sound, this is as good a chance as there ever will be.

My vote is that a certain someone should be up for BEST VILLIAN EVER! (do they give those post mortum? I sure hope they do...)

I completely agree with you, my head was spinning with all the plot development and just when I thought the movie was winding down for the climax... three times I feel for it... The situation would become increasingly chaotic.

By the end of the movie I reflected back on it. I could only describe it as similar to watching an entire season of Batman the Animated Series in one sitting, epic!
