Tech-savvy

I feel like a laptop dealer. There's currently 3 laptops residing in my increasingly dilapidated home...

Yes, I'm obsessed...


I watched this movie all in one go last night. I really like it!

Maybe I am biased because I love Robin/Dick Grayson so much and this movie features his character, but I can't help to think this movie blends just the right amount of human drama with comical cinematography. Sure, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight did the fictional landscape of Gotham City in great detail, but where's the theatrical craziness of it? Batman Forever has neon lights, buildings with non-sensical architects and the enemy headquarters in the middle of the sea. I mean, come on, you can't be too real when you do a movie based on comic books, right?

I hated Val Kilmer, but he did wonders with the Bruce Wayne/Batman character in this movie. And Chris O'Donnell as Robin is just pure pleasure to watch. To hell with the geeky belief that Robin is a curse for actors who have ever played him. When the gloves fit, you just enjoy the ride.

Gosh, of all things to have a fandom for, it has to be something that I liked 15 years ago...

More childhood dissatisfaction

Bridget Jones moment #383092: I've just been sitting here watching trailers and clips from Batman Forever and the 1960s TV series of Batman.

I guess I could safely say that I'm royally obsessed with the character Robin. I think all the screen adaptations that have been produced so far did well with the character interpretation of the Boy Wonder - Burt Ward and then Chris O'Donnell, both did good with their own way of portraying the boyish charm of Dick Grayson. And it just made me realise that he was, in fact, my first superhero crush.

I really hope Hollywood is really gonna do that new TV series about the pre-Robin Dick Grayson. It'll be awesome. Yep, no, I just found out it's not gonna happen in the near future now. Damn.

Hmm...

Is it mean to recognise someone by the size of their ass?

Batman & Robin

It's so random but I'm watching the original series of Batman from 1966.
