Any self-respecting Nolancompoop has to love Insomnia. Pacino, Williams and Swank? What's not to love?

 

[intothevoid]

Insomnia is great. I actually got it on BluRay a few days ago, gonna re-watch (only seen it once before when it came out) soon.

I guess I can appreciate your thoughts on Jack Joker ironwez. I have no idea who that anime guy is in your avatar and I know for a fact if I found out, read up or watched it I'd think it was ____.

As for Returns Penguin, I thought/think Devito was a great Penguin. Much better than the little bastard from the comics. Not really a fan of the squawking, monocle wearing, proper arms dealer from the comics. Though, I love the Burgess Meredith interpretation and the amalgamation of the Devito Penguin and comic Penguin for the BTAS animated Penguin.

I really enjoyed the foul, bile spewing, sideshow freak that was abandoned and thrown away by his parents. Sometimes you feel sympathy or pity for him but deep down he's sexual innuendo saying garbage. Batman picks up right away on the Penguin's true intentions and his whole plot of killing off first born children is disturbing but in some way poetic. It has this whole nature vs. nurture element to it. Is Oswald like this because he was cast out or is he this monster because he was born that way. I don't know, I really dug what Burton and Devito came up with. That whole "Penguin man of the sewers" thing. Most of the time I can't even tell it's Devito in that rotund costume.

His death is one of my favorite on screen deaths too. Like the sympathetic end to an old black and white horror villain/monster. There's something operatic about it from the music to the way it's shot when he falls down with a thud.

I know, "OH NOT COMIC ACCURATE" but there are few comic book film translations that are spot on in appearance/characterization and what have you. I thought Penguin here was better than the one dimensional comic interpretation with his blue coat and yellow umbrellas. Devito Penguin is a nasty ____.

O yea the guy in my avatar is a major ____ and a douchbag. But he is also the most interesting character in the naruto series lol.

4 days and 55 minutes until the marathon, and 3 days, 19 hours, and 9 minutes until the marathon. "So it begins."

Found this interesting:

This popcorn movie is a cinematic banquet.

Isn't that the differential that Nolancompoops are using to separate Avengers from TDKR?

Here's a nice review from Empire for those interested,
