You Kinda Suck, Batman...

Long before I ever even thought of starting a blog, I wrote a response to a Nostalgia Critic video (that I won't link to because it's not that well-structured or written) that compared Tim Burton's '89 Batman with the then-recent release The Dark Knight. He favored the '89 film adaptation of the character, and I strongly begged to differ with that opinion. A key reason for my conclusion then and now is that I have never truly been susceptible to nostalgia. Or rather, I can separate my feelings of comfortable familiarity from the assessment of a work. You have to in order to truly see things for what they are...that's why I have a hard time with Batman '89. This movie is pretty awful.

Oh, don't play the victim here...
