Ever since Christopher Nolan took over the Batman franchise in 2003, he has increasingly redefined the Dark Knight to the point where he is nothing more than Dick Cheney in a cape talking in a raspy voice and each and every villain has been demoted from super-natural cartoon caricatures to all-to-human obsessed terrorists with a grudge and WMDs.
We have put up with Nolan’s personal “war on terror” appeasement campaign and even allowed him to profit immensely from it, but now I say to you, enough is enough.
Let’s boycott the Batman.

You are the one consumed by politics...Oblong_Box wrote:How so? If you don't want to debate politics, and remain ignorant of it, it will continue to consume you, whether you like it or not. I agree that politics is mostly just bullshit rhetoric, but we can't just sweep it under the rug. That's terribly naive.
Do you pay taxes? Are you not part of a Statist system? We are all consumed by it. I'm just saying if you don't come to understand this, or even care, the feeding will not end.Caekzor wrote:You are the one consumed by politics...Oblong_Box wrote:How so?

What does any of this have to do with TDKR or Chris Nolan?Oblong_Box wrote:Do you pay taxes? Are you not part of a Statist system? We are all consumed by it. I'm just saying if you don't come to understand this, or even care, the feeding will not end.
Read my OP. I was hoping to discuss Nolan's political implications, and how it may play out in TDKR. The immaturity that persists among most here has not allowed for any valid discussion.Caekzor wrote:What does any of this have to do with TDKR or Chris Nolan?Oblong_Box wrote:Do you pay taxes?

Go preach somewhere else.
