Right Before His Death, He Sure Played a Master Villain
But enough about Tony Snow. Anyone see the new Batman movie?

Goin’ tomorrow.
I remember how elated I felt when I first saw Jack Nicholson play a serious “Joker” after having grown up with the campy Cesar Romero version but Heath Ledger blew Jack totally out of the water. Which brings to mind the question of whether or not imersing oneself in that characterization as Heath did might have reprecussions such as a pill-popping accidental overdose.

Oops that sucked, sorry for my over-indulgence. My system kept spitting out an error message saying I had entered the anti-spam code wrong. Didn’t realize that the comment was still getting posted. Dumbass for the day… I’ll take a bow now and exit stage right. Buh-bye.
Don’t worry about it Dave. Been there, done that…a few times
Yep, I saw Dark Knight and liked it. Especially that part when the joker was saying that if some thugs or soldiers are killed, everyone is fine with it because it’s part of “the plan;” but if one person dies at random or in some unpredictable way, people freak out (it being unplanned and all). I thought it pointed out how murder committed as part of the state’s plan is perceived as routine and acceptable, while killing that is not sanctioned by public or foreign policy causes the terrified citizenry to lose its “collective” head and the society to lose the moral code it once used to define itself. (Sorry, I know we’re all individuals here, but you know what I mean). I think that there were some important insights there.
But, I can also see that people (either to their dismay or satisfaction) will interpret the film as depicting batman as george bush and warrantless wiretapping as justified…just this once. And, many may also take from the film that anarchy=violent chaos, with the joker being its tireless advocate. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it and took from it what I chose to take, I suppose. Either way, Heath Ledger was phenomenal. Never seen a better joker on film!
Geez…what does it mean when you can’t even watch a Batman movie anymore without subjecting it to some politically motivated criticism? I say an overbearing State!
