holy schnikeys batman!

[mike j]

Rented 'requiem for a dream' last night, after
monroe's disquieting post about aronofsky directing
the next batman. not that i feel protective of the
caped crusader (do i have the right guy?), it just
seemed incongruous, being that the humorless aronofsky
apparently likes to tackle deep subjects in a shallow
way (i love the independent film channel's trailer for
'pi' -- "Maybe it's genius! AND MAYBE IT'S NOT..." )
-- perhaps he's trying for a reversal this time?
anyway, jordan catalano aside,  i'm sure darren's a
nice young man and all, and it's nice to see someone
from brooklyn getting paid, but sheesh, i'd consider
him for below's list, if he wasn't more along the
lines of a producer of adequate senior-year projects
that somehow get past the ushers.

it was tim burton's humor and his geniuine love for
the superfreak (not to mention jack nicholson's
make-up and danny devito's hump) that made the first
two batmen good movies. without that, it ain' sheeut.

Luckily it was 2 for 1 night at the local store, and I
could cleanse the ol' palate with "my life as a dog."
