Adam West Vs Christian Bale

(Believe it or not, that was the most intelligent-looking picture of the Adam West Batman I could find.)

There was no comparison, really. At all.

But if you were wondering, Christian Bale wins.

See, about three years ago, I saw a Batman movie. It was from the 60s and well,.... hm...lets just say that it was from the 60s. Now I have a friend who thinks very highly of Batman, and rightly so, and he was somewhat disturbed that my only experience of Batman was the Adam West Batman. He suggested this be remedied. And last night, it was.



I've got one thing to say about it. 8D

I just wanted to tell you that it was very cool and interesting and I won't bother you with details. I bothered Kae with details just when she was beginning to think she might want to see it. And now she doesn't want to. (I've got a really bad habit of telling her all of the worst stuff first.)

The movie is easily summarized in a few sentences.

"If you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, you become something else entirely."

"But it's not who you are underneath, it's what you do that defines you."

"I seek the means to fight injustice, to turn fear against those who prey on the fearful."

And that is pretty much it.

So, now I no longer think of the Adam West Batman when I think of Batman.
