Batman Begins revived the Batman I loved. It was closer to the way the Animated Series portrayed him.
Not to say I didn't like the first two (Burton) Batman films, but they're just completely different takes on the story. Plus, BB starts from the very beginning, whereas the original movies just threw you into the story and used assumed audience familiarity/flashbacks to fill viewers in on what happened.
Of course, I'm no Batman fangirl, so I'm sure that it's not the 100% comic-book legit origin film. But hell, it's more info than the other films. And it has Ra's al Ghul. Plus, I think Christian Bale makes a *much* better Bruce Wayne than Michael Keaton. Much better....definitely a hell of a lot sexier. I just don't know if I can handle somebody else taking on the role of the Joker, since Jack Nicholson did such a great job.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
