Batman Begins - no spoilers

Batman Begins - I keep typing "Batman Beyond" which... not quite - but anyway, Batman Begins rocks twice as much as people say it does. It's been a long time since I sat in a theater at the end of a movie and wanted to say through the next show too.
I do think that Our Hero in the early parts looked quite a lot like a young Christopher Reeve; I was actually startled when he didn't fly at one point. And the poofy-lipped 12-year-old playing Dr. Crane made me think "Smallville!" everytime he nanced onto the screen and pursed those red, red Angela Jolie lips. As opposed to a moment later on when the 12-year-old Assistant DA did something that really reminded me of a moment in Pratchett's Hogfather.
More later, when I stop burbling.
And in other *twitch* moments... the MS Fantasy Ball has some major, major raffle prizes rolling in. Specially designed jewelry. Full nobles garb. $500 coupons. A Myfi.
Golly, I hope the book baskets make a good showing...

Less so in this, tho, mostly because I barely recognized him with more hair and a bit more meat on his bones.
