Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

Great, so it's basically a Batman movie with Cousin Itt as the villain.

Well, except everyone in the Addams family understands what Cousin Itt is saying. So, more like Darth Vader with scratchy throat.

Neil Gaiman tweeted:

The Dark Knight Rises was remarkable. Oscar nomworthy. I was impressed. Also things went boom and there was hitting.

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

I thought it said Oscar nonworthy, and I was all "dang, that's cold..."

Now I'm anxious...

I read "nomworthy" and thought, "Dang, Neil Gaiman is using LOLspeak?!?"

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I read "nomworthy" and thought, "Dang, Neil Gaiman is using LOLspeak?!?"

It's a bold re-envisioning of the Corinthian. "I can haz eyeballs?"

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I haven't even been watching trailers. Since I don't have tickets for a true Imax screening until middle next week, I appreciate all the notice about spoilery areas!

Okay, that's taken care of. I'm seeing the 3:30AM screening Friday morning. I think, I think that's happened.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Bane could be, like, the Boomhauer of Batman. No one could ever understand him, but there could always be some other reason why not.
