Nananananananana Batman!

 Hello, so this year for Christmas I got The Dark Knight Rises from Santa and it inspired me to write this blog post. Batman is my favourite superhero and The Dark Knight is my all time favourite movie. I think I've seen all of the Batman movies and Christian Bale is my favourite actor to play Batman. I think the thing I love about Batman is that he is human and that's all there is. Most other superheros look like humans but have some kind of power but Batman just has money and gadgets, and I know Iron Man is only human as well but he has a super suit and he uses guns when Batman doesn't. Since I've seen all or most of the Batman movies I have a lot to talk about.
 My favourite of the Batmans are the Christian Bale trilogy because he brings a darkness to the character, and in these movies it really builds a character. The first of the trilogy, Batman Begins, focuses on creating Batman and explaining why he became Batman and it went into Bruce Wayne's past. No other movie explains and creates the Batman character as much as this trilogy. The creators did a great job in making a great beginning, middle and end to Batman in the trilogy. The Dark Knight is my favourite movie because I absolutally love the Joker, he's my favourite villain of all time and Heath Ledger did an amazing job with this character and it was a tragedy to lose such an amazing actor who was so young. I love a villain who is absolutally mental but in this movie it really focuses on how some people don't have a reason to be bad, they just do it for the fun. The Dark Knight, again, just builds a story line for the Batman movies. Then the Dark Knight Rises is probably the best ending to the movie trilogy that any Batman fan could have asked for, it's thrilling, it's fast and a little scary because, to be honest, Bane is sort of terrifying, but again he is a great villain and Tom Hardy was the best actor for the job. And I love the idea as a police man being a hero as well because it supports my idea of Batman being only human, and I think the Joseph Gordon-Levitt was a great person to play the sidekick, his character was so caring and he help so much with saving everyone. Also Anne Hathaway is amazing in it, she plays Catwoman so well, she's sly, she's beautiful and she's highly skilled and just badass!
 I'm almost certain that the first Batman film ever made was Batman (1966) which I've seen and it is ridiculous, the acting is terrible and you could tell it was all fake and I know it was 1966 but they could have done better. Then there were the two Michael Keaton Batman movies, Batman (1989) and Batman Returns. I know Michael Keaton is an amazing actor but I just didn't think he was a very good person to play Batman, I just wasn't feeling it for him. Although, I think Jack Nicholson was an amazing person to play the Joker in Batman (1989). He brought everything I liked to the character but I just think Heath Ledger made the Joker character more modern and evil. The second of the Keaton Batman movies, Batman Returns, had Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman and she was amazing. Like Anne Hathaway she was sly and skill and she looked amazing. It also had Danny DeVito as the Penguin and this character scared the hell out of me, he's so creepy looking and just pure weird.
 There was then two other Batman movies, Batman Forever and Batman and Robin, which are a sequel but with Val Kilmer playing Batman in Batman Forever and George Clooney playing him in Batman and Robin. Jim Carrey plays the Riddler in Batman Forever and he does a really good job at playing a villain but again, I'm not sure in the choice of actor to play Batman. I think, personally, that Batman and Robin is a good movie but when it came out it got a lot of bad press saying it was one of the worst movies ever. I think it just takes a different approach at the Batman character, it doesn't talk about his dark past and I think there had to be one movie that we didn't feel bad for him the whole way through. The villains in this movie are Poison Ivy played by Uma Thurman and Mr. Freeze played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. I wasn't to fond of Mr. Freeze, although I do wonder how long it took for Arnold Schwarzenegger to get ready, but I did love Poison Ivy. I think I just liked her hair and her makeup but Uma Thurman was amazing in it and looked stunning the whole way through the movie.
 Woah, that was longer then I was expecting but that is my blog post on Batman finished. This post was about eight movie reviews in one! If there is one of the movies that I mentioned that you haven't seen I do recommend that you watch it. Thanks for reading :)
