One thing I like about super hero MOVIES is that they don't usually do silly crossovers with other superheroes.

In the comic books that stuff makes sense because the whole thing is like one big 'Days of Our Lives' soapie with character interaction, relationships and contrived non-sensical histories to keep things semi-original, otherwise each characters individual stories would soon start sounding just like all the others.

In movies because theres bound to be only a few of them they can afford better to do storylines that haven't yet been covered by other comic book movies.

Of course if Marvel and co. keep churning out mediocre crap they're going to flood the market and risk diminishing their few successful franchises which is always a risk.

WB should get on their knees and thank the good Lord that the new Batman Director managed to save the franchise they themselves allowed to be butchered earlier.

Batman Begins was an excellent movie, I myself had no problem with Katie Holmes in the movie, she played a good character and was pretty damned hot for my tastes, it was also nice how they avoided having Batman end up living happily ever after with her etc.

I'm definantly looking forward to the next Batman movie if they ever get around to it especially as it seems he'll be up against the Joker.

It had an incredible cast who all did a great job, one of if not the best casts I've ever seen in a movie I've really liked before.
