    I’ve seen Batman Begins and its sick. I thought the 80s Batman were boring because there was no high-tec graphics and animation that time but NOW – Batman Begins was an average movie with several mistakes like Bruce Wayne asking the car guy that does he have the black version of Batmobile and Batman using the same mobile – the real story is that Alfred who did mechanical engg.s made a mod from a destroyed war car from Bruce’s dad gallery ; Bruce Wayne going out to take training when Alfred was at home – the real story is that Alfred took Bruce with him to the temple for his reformation where Alfred and HyonSi teaches him how to fight like a Samurai [ the movie shows Bruce learning Ninjas ] ; The movie shows Bruce was rich from childhood and has been rich throughout – the reality is that the time when Bruce’s parents died, there company [ Thomas Works, not Wayne Industries ] was going into big loses because of some inert traders and then 3 months after Bruce’s parents death, they were all sold out and there big castle was also auctioned. After coming from a training of 15 yrs., Bruce decides to bring back his fame and proud and so he works hard in fields of chemical research and technical sources using the money saved by Alfred which Alfred gifted to Bruce [ Alfred belongs to a rich naive from Scotland, he is not justa butler but a super techie guy ]. After a long achivement, he starts a chemical work factory called Wayne Industries and after a lot hard work and success of 5 yrs he gets his all pride back and also buys the Wayne Manor for the double cost though it was destroyed in a city management issue.

    There are many such things which I pointed and moreover I didnt liked Bale as the Batman, my choice was Micheal Kenton ;) . Moreover Bale is tall where Batman is a middle height guy. :P

    Anyways, lets see wazzup with The Dark Knight. :)

    Another update: The Dark Knight will also feature a part of Two-face and Joker’s ridiculous thefts and yes, Joker is not a thief, he is a professional. :D

    Another upcoming Joker’s feature is RETURN OF THE JOKER [ joker comes back again from a siege DNA interchange with SocialBomber by tricking him and now is back to treat the owrld but see that his sons and daughters are destroying his fame by being insulted as roadies. He trains some of his toy pals which he make come back again from some of his funny and danger cloning experiments. The city will be gain nder the laugh of the great Joker and now Terry McGinnis have to stop Joker and his team [ Terry is the new Batman, Bruce chose him because of his life and his personality when Bruce grew old and also gets cardiac arrests. Joker also invades Wayne Manor and attacks Bruce making Bruce to wear his Batsuit again but some another cardiac arrests and Bruce admitted in hospital fighting for his life. Terry gets a message saved by Wayne telling about Talia ....... Sorry I cant tell the whole story, you need to wait for the release of the animated series of Batman Beyond. ]

    always enjoyed all of the batman movies but once i learned that they are redoing the joke i wish they had piced someone else to play the part or chose a diffrent vilian there is no way the Heath Ledger will be able to play the joke as well as Jack Nicklson did theres just no way to compare this is just my opinon but i hate to say it this movie might turn out to be bad really bad Christian Bale is a good batman however he does action roles very well i liked him in equillibrum so he might just save this movie i will see it with an unbias view but i dont think that im going to enjoy it as much as the origanl one with the joker
