Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese.

Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They even had their own comic, "World's Finest."

Had?? Superman/Batman isn't just canon, it's a comic.

With Jeph Loeb writing it, Superman/Batman (Actual Comic Title) is about as close to canon as you can get and still have plausible deniability. They're disturbingly married.

most of Batman's slashy potential being tied up in his habit of taking nubile teenage acrobats into his home and dressing them up in short pants or leather.

Funny, I thought this power was in the nipple suit.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

However, I've seen Velvet Goldmine often enough (I've owned it for five years) to half-expect my Batman to put on eyeliner and masturbate to pictures of Ewan boykissage.

Yes, this.

Of course, this explains one of my problems with the current Star Wars movies. I kept expecting Obi-Wan to either be covered in glitter or to start singing and take off his pants.

I don't expect it. I'm just really, really hopeful.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
