A trend I do not like
Date: Monday, 18 March 2013 06:06 pm (UTC)I wonder if the filmmakers have realised that the world is shitty, there's a recession on and climate change means we'll all be dead in 50 years, and they'd better just get that across to us now. Movies are about blatant escapism and they seem to have forgotten that.
I have not read your review above. I haven't seen the movie in question nor do I plan to. The Burton Batmans will always be the "real" ones for me - just the right mix of redonk camp and brooding emo. As with ST: the new one is fine as an action movie set in space, but it has none of the humour, camp and idealistic "we're all going to be ok, the world ends up a much better place in a couple of centuries" vibe that the originals had.
Sigh. Woe. Get off my lawn.
