batman begins not to suck

Rating: 9/10 (6 July 2005)

"you ever dance with the devil by the pale moon light?" I know i'm a nerd, but what's the deal? Is Nolan gonna create a sequel that involves a new joker? If so, who's gonna play it better than Jack? If not, and this ending was a lead in to the original Batman film, than I'm confused as to how we are supposed to get past the fact that the first two Batman movies (sequencially speaking: batman begins, and batman I) have conflicting back stories as to the death of Bruce Wayne's parents? I know, it's a movie, just go with it, right? I just feel like the Batman chain has been broken. However, it's the best movie so far, and the Batman series died when Arnold walked in front of the camera.
So all my dorkisms aside, Nolan has saved the superhero genre. How? By bringing the unobtainable superhero down to a human level. We geeks can once again believe that we too could conquer our fear of women, or contact lenses, or whatever it may be, and channel them into altruistic butt-kicking justice. Best Batman film since the original Adam West movie with the gender-confused Ridler.
