I realize that by saying this I have probably offended 98% of my blog readers, my dear husband included. Please don't come in mobs and burn down our house. I like Batman. Really I do. In fact my first movie crush that I can remember was Michael Keaton in the first batman. And Kim Basinger (aka Vicky Vale the journalist) wore this green dress in that movie that to this day I am still in love with. Unfortunately green isn't really my color. My cousin told me so when I was 8. Has scarred me for life.
So as I was saying I like Batman, I am excited for Batman, but I don't have sleepless nights waiting for the Bat movie. In fact I could probably wait for a month to see it. Has my love for the Bat dwindled because since Batman Begins came out I have been forced to watch it weekly keeping me from watching reruns of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and Family Matters? Maybe. Is it because sometimes I hear Clayton call out for Bruce Wayne in his sleep? Disturbing and yes. Is it because I have caught my beloved climbing on top of our house and trying to fly off of it while saying, "don't worry people of Gotham City I the Batman will save you."? Ok-so maybe that is a stretch, but I guarantee you he thinks about it.
So is some of the obsession/buzz about this movie because of the death of Heath Ledger? Did he get so into the Joker role that he had to subscribe to pills which he eventually overdosed on? So much has been made of this. So many differing opinions. Even Clayton and I disagree. All I know is that the TRAILERS scare me. But I'm a wuss. Yep I am.
Don't get me wrong, I will go see this movie. In fact because I am a loving wife (I am I promise) I ordered 2 tickets to the Saturday showing at the IMAX theater in Salt Lake. When Clayton found them I thought he would cry. It was so cute...and sad.

i'm probably gonna end up seeing this too but i'm pretty flat line about it. i don't really care either way... and i think you would look LOVELY in green!!! have fun at IMAX you guys are rock stars.
oh & we got our bike off ksl it was down in bountiful!! so i took half a tuesday off work to go get it hahaha good excuse to get outta work huh?? :)
So I've never been to a midnight showing of a movie, but we(us, Hyltons, & Sandbergs) decided to go see the Dark Knight last night. I'm not way into Batman, but went for the fun of it. I liked it. Yes, there is a lot of violence and I had the death grip on Josh for some of the time, but I was really impressed with the plot more than anything. You'll have to let us know how it goes on the IMAX!
SO which cousin was it that said you didn't look good in green......
Aren't there any good reruns of Saved by the bell or Full house on?
I'm with you Heidi...He's an attractive, rich man who made his own bat costume. I'm sure I'll see it too. "We" love superheros in our house.
Glad to hear I'm not the only one thinking what on earth is up with Batman? Honestly, don't people have more to do than go to a movie!
Let's hear it for Full House! Did you ask Erik about that? I think secretly he wants to be Uncle Jesse. I'm excited to hear your review of the movie, we didn't get to talk a lot about it at the partay Saturday night. It was so nice to meet you guys! You guys are so funny! Oh, and tell Clayton that we all really enjoyed his recipe for love, it was so touching and filled with wonderful, non-repetive adjectives.
Saw it, it was good. I do think more is being made of Heath Leger's performance because he's dead. I don't believe the rumor that playing the dark character lead to his death..that's just hype.... But that was going to happen, everything he's ever done is now more legitimate than ever because of his tragic and untimely death. There's my two cents!! But I do have to give it to the guy, he had a psychotic take on the joker...freaked me out so much I had a hard time sleeping w/o his face swarming in my mind....
