Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape  

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. 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.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

There was mention of Harvey being in IA near the beginning of the movie, though I forget exactly which scene.

Mentioning BB reminded me of the headtwist of complete throw away of Cillian Murphy in the parking garage. Whattha? Did I miss the part where he started paying for his sins ?

The rest of the movie was so...um...arresting, that I totally forgot about that bit until just this second.

I think he was on the ferry too and I liked being reminded of him because compared to Joker I found him about as scary as a housecat.

P-C, that's from the last movie, yeah?

No, it was early on in the movie, and it was a constant source of tension between Gordon and him. He knew Gordon's team had corrupt cops because he had investigated them for IA, and that's why he was so royally pissed at Gordon when Rachel got killed because it was one of his corrupt cops who took her.

Ah. I didn't see him on the ferry. Again, I say, whuh?

Maybe he is friends with Nolan? Or will come back in some future iteration? It just seemed so...throw away!

It was, but I think it was also in the spirit of the comics, in that Batman's rogue's gallery is always THERE, even if they're not the focus.

That makes sense P-C. I've seen that in the books...and the tv show, to an extent.

But that still doesn't explain how that character went from scourge, riding off into the night to hanging out with good-hearted but below-average-thinking good guy wannabe.

Mystery!

Well when he rode away he had a brain full of his own fear spray, so that may have altered his thinking a bit. I did love his line after Batman says he doesn't need any help - (paraphrasing) "That's not my diagnosis."
