I like the first one (although I have seen it too much now), love the second one and am undecided about Batman Begins. I didn't like how he insisted on wasting time with the backstory, and I especially didn't like the certain over repeated lines like "Mr Wayne, why do we fall down" and "You should learn to mind your surroundings."
I think that is the truth. The old Batman TV show had its good points (not many if you ask me), but it isn't really Batman.
I agree 100%. I think the best Batman movie is Mask of the Phantasm.
Incidentally, I love your new avatar copmike. Fabuland has a certain charm...
