"Things will start to get worse, before it gets better." Same goes for medical treatments- there's that rough moment when surgery puts you through misery and pain in order to heal you.<BR/><BR/>And in the movie when people were finger-pointing their anger at Batman and those who have tried to protect them, rather than laying blame and responsibility squarely on the shoulders of The Joker....well, you all know where I'm heading with that one.</I><BR/><BR/>Yes, I couldn't help but draw parallels.The WordSmith from Nantuckethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15937868119894243815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9866194.post-37473869237321185912008-08-11T15:49:00.000-07:002008-08-11T15:49:00.000-07:00Janice,Definitely a son to be proud of!Janice,<BR/><BR/>Definitely a son to be proud of!SkyePuppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01571489259897997518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9866194.post-31597482695625616972008-08-11T13:11:00.000-07:002008-08-11T13:11:00.000-07:00Now I know why my son loves "The Batman" in spite ...Now I know why my son loves "The Batman" in spite of the hype over the "Joker" in this new movie.<BR/><BR/>In 2004 prior to the election, Nick, Christopher and I attended a luncheon where Michael Medved was speaking (about the up-coming election). <BR/><BR/>Anyway, Michael was circling the room and came to our table. He posed for pics, signed my book and "Medhead" T-shirt. Then, a 17 year old Christopher questioned Michael about his not-so-flattering review of Batman Begins. Michael defended his remarks, believing the movie was a "dark" depiction of the film. My son went on to express his views (saying something to the effect that we all like hot dogs but we don't want to see how they're made) that Batman is fighting evil and evil is dark. Michael agreed with his statement but said the movie could have made the point without being so depressingly dark. <BR/><BR/>Is it any wonder why we're so proud of him.....janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10885403909609923540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9866194.post-50667922775147420482008-08-11T06:08:00.000-07:002008-08-11T06:08:00.000-07:00"...preening piety"Love it."...preening piety"<BR/><BR/>Love it.Malotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09908995141115792851noreply@blogger.com
