First Blog = The Batman!

Hello World!

I have finally decided to take this step in my life: I got a blog. Yay? I'm excited to be able to update everyone on the fascinating adventures of my life. I'm excited to be able to blab on and on about things that amuse me that I otherwise wouldn't be able to tell people about. And I'm excited to write, just for the sake of writing. (FYI, I may or may not, at points, go off on tangents. If I do, you can ignore or enjoy, just know that I apologize in advance for my ADD.) Now then, where shall I begin? 

I guess I'll start this blog by talking about one thing: Batman. Yes, Batman. Why? Because I just saw the third movie for the second time, which, if you have yet to do so, I recommend you go and see it. Right. Now. 

Batman is one of my all time favorite movies, right up there with Harry Potter and Pocahontas. Batman is one of the only movies that has ever made me laugh, cry, and want to jump out of my seat all at the same time. It's that good. And I think there are a few reasons why.

1.) Anybody ever stop to think that this movie is totally plausible? Because it is. Batman didn't fall into a toxic pit of waste and gain super speed or anything. He can't fly (without the help of his machines). He's just smart, and rich, and has the resources to make this happen. And the situation he gets into is also completely possible. It's just mind-blowing to think about.

2.) Bain, the Joker, and everyone Batman has faced are, in a way, completely real people. If you listen to their lines, actually listen to them talk, they have legit points and, in their hearts, think they are doing something necessary. (I promise I'm not a crazy person, and I in no way agree with what they are doing. I'm just saying.)

3.) The stunts, the lines, the timing of everything is PERFECT. Beautifully done. And the actors? Couldn't get any better than this, folks. Alfred makes me cry every time. Bruce Wayne makes me want to be a better person. I love all of them. Well, almost all.

So you get it, I love Batman. It is a movie I can respect and enjoy, and there aren't many of those movies around. I'm proud of this movie, and of the message it sends of hope, peace, and perseverance. And if you're looking for something to see this weekend, I recommend it. 

Thanks for reading! Many more, shorter blogs to come. Maybe next time, I'll talk about something that isn't completely irrelevant!

Nah.
