He made a choice to do what he does to work through his inner demons.<BR/><BR/>And I should say that I've got nothing against comic book superheroes being just that - super - I'm just saying I think this is what makes the Bat more accessible. And cooler. Much cooler.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730146625671701859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-60570206207166233062008-07-30T08:03:00.000-04:002008-07-30T08:03:00.000-04:00Nat, mine was more of a "I like to read your revie...Nat, mine was more of a "I like to read your reviews" not a "explain yourself"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-7178160769085933432008-07-30T06:12:00.000-04:002008-07-30T06:12:00.000-04:00but is his code any different than other superhero...but is his code any different than other superheroes?

It's the complexity of the man, the complexity of the code, the line he won't cross and the relationship he has with Gotham. It's the dynamic with the rogues gallery that forms a symbiosis of sorts. It's the conscious effort that goes into the role, as opposed to be anointed or chosen in any decisive way. It's the random nature of the event that made him and the consistent struggle to root out evil.<BR/><BR/>No other character in comics (in much of literature, I'd wager) is as complex. It's so much more.<BR/><BR/>And yes...I'm obviously a Bat-dork and a half.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683931969986123589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-14485457826514782412008-07-30T01:27:00.000-04:002008-07-30T01:27:00.000-04:00I've always thought that Batman was unique amongst...I've always thought that Batman was unique amongst superheroes for basically choosing to become what he is. Pretty much all of the others are forced into it in some way, and although varying origin stories obviously play with this a bit, generally speaking Batman is a normal guy amongst a bunch of freaks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-52009744496447796792008-07-30T01:02:00.000-04:002008-07-30T01:02:00.000-04:00I think it's Gotham city...it's beautiful, mysteri...I think it's Gotham city...<BR/><BR/>it's beautiful, mysterious, sprawling, dark, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-39011982575295226262008-07-30T00:13:00.000-04:002008-07-30T00:13:00.000-04:00jaydawg i barely have time to comment at this junc...<B>jaydawg</B> i barely have time to comment at this juncture.<BR/><BR/>we'll see.<BR/><BR/><B>jonathan</B> you mispelled "Nathaniel" It should read "NATHANIEL, HIGH HOLY GOD OF THE BLOGOSPHERE" <BR/><BR/>now, hand me those knuckles!NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-3269524615730576662008-07-30T00:11:00.000-04:002008-07-30T00:11:00.000-04:00I think it's more than the normalcy (no superpower...I think it's more than the normalcy (no superpowers) <BR/><BR/>it's the normalcy (no superheroes)<BR/>combined with <BR/>normal fantasy (bazillions of dollars to make yourself super) <BR/>and normal fear/fantasy mashup (inner demons taking over... he actually allows it to happen and I think people fear their darker sides but would also really like to give in to them or be "weird")<BR/><BR/>i'm totally guessing but i think he combines a lot of things for people.<BR/><BR/>I personally prefer superheroes to have actual super powers but that's a story for another time.NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-74630873073086082552008-07-30T00:04:00.001-04:002008-07-30T00:04:00.001-04:00He has money, all the ladies... catwoman, great fr...He has money, all the ladies... catwoman, great friends (Jordan, Robin and Alfred) and that car! <BR/><BR/>Love ya man!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-37185391044385523242008-07-30T00:04:00.000-04:002008-07-30T00:04:00.000-04:00Basically - it's something that seems perfectly pl...Basically - it's something that seems perfectly plausible for real life.

The kind that thinks it's fine for someone to think a movie is okay or even bad when I think it's great. Although, I like to know why someone thinks is okay, or a B.
