  • Oh so looking forward to the Dark Knight Rises seeing it in the morning at 5am! I have great faith in Chris Nolan’s ability to finish the trilogy in style!

  • While I’m really looking forward to seeing it, what happens now! Does the Batman franchise die, or will another director try put a different spin on it, I can’t imagine anyone doing a better job than Christopher Nolan.

    • Nolan has stated he is done directing batman but would help produce a new one in about 5 years as a reboot series a possible return for robin to the series, it’s a bit over kill for me of they reboot it again but money talks in the movie world looking forward to seeing it but nowhere near as excited as I was to see the avengers

  • Rain drops keep falling on my head .The rain may have abated, for now . The drizzle however is being replaced by drivel , as our forlorn , wet and weary society prepares itself begrudgingly, one would hope? , to be subjected to a torrent of even wetter and if possible even more dreary summer cinema block busters. Is anyone today really capable of truly defining decadence ? Have civilization , culture and morality in modern society become victims of the Darwinian precept of the survival of the fittest ? one man’s trash is after all, another man’s treasure, of intellectual,cultural gems that is .

    Is populist reinforcement at large purveying it’s intellect sapping supine stupefacients ? One might observe , from the vantage point , come sanctuary of an ivory tower , that decadence is abound in modern society , culture and intellect if not dead , are a lass a dying breed and that delinquent , unrepentant decadence is indeed sadly alive languidly trotting the fickle footpath to de rigueur status.

    Mephistopheles is at large, hoarding sacks of gold by fiendishly fiddling with instruments, plotting pecuniary scales, pulling the strings on cinema curtains on an utterly inane blighting ,yet bountiful bombardment of banal block busters, with a lass no sigh of a mutiny on the horizon, nor hope of salvation .Sadly for now an unrelenting tide of feces continues to buffet the walls of the intellectual/cultural safehold that is the ivory tower. It is threatening to undermine it , causing this last bastion of culture and intellect to crumble , sliding into the listless liquid movement of banality, drowning in its the murky mindless ebb and flow . We are all at times guilty of dancing to the decadent ,hypnotic somniferous song by the light of a fox’s moon. The really troubling thing one might hasten to ask is , who indeed runs Hollywood and what lobby group are they backing with the proceeds of the fortunes we squander , frivolously consuming their foppish fanciful films? Mere shameless, unabashed cinematic opiates for the masses indeed.

    What was that one about , barbarism to decadence without civilization in between or was is western to blockbuster without culture in between? Frankly my dear …, spider -man , what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive .

  • As rap is an art, its a business that sells stupidity to stupid people. It ain’t music, it ain’t art, it ain’t even entertainment, its just mass produced repetitive mundane victimhood managed by white executives and performed by the otherwise illiterate.
