Batman Begins
I just got back from the movie. It was wonderful.
30 minutes before I left to go see it, the power went out. Thankfully, it came back on and I was able to go.
First? I smuggled in water--good thing too, since the water they did have cost $3.00. And that's in a very small half-pint size, too.
The tickets cost a grand total of $5.25. My sister decided to stay home, but Dad came along. The sound wasn't too loud--Dad had brought along ear plugs just in case it was. Someone brought a baby to the movie--thankfully, it slept through the entire thing.
Before the movie, they had a few previews. One of those previews? For Serenity. It looks like it will be great. I won't be going to see that one, but I will definitely be buying it on DVD.
And then, Batman Begins. As I said before, I loved it. Liam Neeson is a great villain. I'm glad he was Ra's al Ghul, and not the other guy. The other guy seemed less like Ra's should be.
Michael Caine is perfect as Alfred. As is Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox. And Lucius definitely knows the truth, he's just not telling. Alfred gave Bruce a lot of lectures, and constantly gave him support, so they got the character perfectly written.
I was surprised that they burned down Wayne Manor, and destroyed Wayne Towers, though. Although, seeing Gordon try to drive the Batmobile was very funny.
Anyone else think one of Ra's al Ghul's minions will just find the body (Unless it was vaporized--that's possible.), and dump it in a Lazarus Pit?
Oh, and I've heard that there were a lot of Arkham Asylum inmates who were familiar. The only one I saw was Zsasz, though. Who were the others?
Based on what I've been reading lately, Katie Holmes won't be in the sequel, if they do one. Mostly because of how she's acted, and how she hasn't been advertising the movie--she's been busy advertising her relationship with Tom Cruise.
ETA: Oh, and when there were thousands of bats around young Bruce? This was Dad's reaction.
Dad: Ick. Bats.
Me: I think they're cute.
Dad: Are you sure you're my daughter?
*Goes to read the novelization, to see if there is any difference between the movie and the book.*
I am definitely buying this movie when it comes out on DVD.

Re: Batman Begins
The Barbara Gordon there was probably Gordon's wife. The Barbara Gordon that becomes Batgirl is his niece, and wasn't there. Yes, that baby was definitely his soon-to-be-estranged son, named James.
