Batman: Arkham Asylum Review

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

Batman: Arkham Asylum - "The choke's on you!"The prison guard jerks The Joker’s arm as he leads him off to his familiar cell in Arkham Asylum. As The Joker looks back over his shoulder at Batman, he trips and falls to his knee.

When the guard leans down to help him up, Joker takes the opportunity to quickly headbutt the guard as he stands up, sending him reeling. Before anyone can react he leaps up & wraps his cuffs around the guard’s neck from behind. Batman beats on the reinforced glass separating him from his nemesis as he kills the helpless prison guard.

When The Joker hears the guard’s last gurgling attempts at breathing, he gets in his punchline… “Choke’s on you!”

This scene sets the whole tone of Batman: Arkham Asylum, and I think someone may have been pumping Joker gas into my living room, as I had a silly grin on my face the whole time.

Lego Batman – Dark Knight Edition

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008
Lego Joker

Not a new video I know, but I thought it was rather well done, and it was reposted on the Film School Rejects site earlier today.

This is basically a shot-for-shot remake of the Dark Knight trailer using lego, and the attention to detail is rather good IMO. :) (Video after the jump)

Anyway have a looksie, and comment if you enjoy – and if you haven’t yet purchased your copy of the Dark Knight on DVD or Blu-Ray… what are you waiting for?

The Dark Knight Review

Friday, July 25th, 2008

The Dark Knight PosterTitle: The Dark Knight
Director: Christopher Nolan
Starring: Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal
Release: 25th July 2008 [UK]

Synopsis: Batman (Bale) raises the stakes in his war on crime. With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon (Oldman) and District Attorney Harvey Dent (Eckhart), Batman sets out to dismantle the remaining criminal organizations that plague the city streets. The partnership proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a reign of chaos unleashed by a rising criminal mastermind known to the terrified citizens of Gotham as The Joker (Ledger).

Review: I’m not normally one to give in to the hype that surrounds a movie, mainly because I normally end up feeling let down when its not lived up to. With Chris Nolan’s Dark Knight, you can give in to the hype, and still think the movie was better than you expected. After my 3rd viewing, I still am!
