Then why didn't they stay with the squid?

Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.

I know Rachel is suppose to be a girl-next-store-type character, but do you really have to cast two droopy-faced actresses?

Besides that, I love the movies.

I agree with you that they could have been better, like having Harvey Dent far more involved with Begins, but it did well enough to where everything I would say would be completely nitpicky.

Great movie. No criticisms can be made, IMO.

A couple things about that trailer:

-Sam Rockwell was a nobody
-It made me recall Tony Shalhoub playing a stoic guy the entire film to be hilarious
-Rocks indeed have no venerable spots!

Galaxy Quest is one of the great movies that nobody watches...especially by miners. Not minors.

I have to go watch some historical documents now.

I don't even know what to add, but since The Watchmen is the greatest graphic novel of all time, the film could have been better. I like Zach Snyder, but I feel someone else could have done better.

Watchmen was a lose/lose situation. Snyder got shite for making it too close to the books and too different from the books.

Ever, EVERY incarnation that was close to production was a big deviation from Moore's script. Snyder stepped in and fell on the grenade and made a movie that honored the book as best as possible.

Hmmmm. I thought it was pretty creative. Like anything else, after the fact, there is always away it can be better, but I don't see there being many other different directions this movie could have gone.

Talk about a waste of an easy plot. Just fill the movie with scenes of him being a smart/badass. Movie hit a low point when he drank dudes blood
