Our Take on Batman


What do you get when you mix a troubled childhood, funny masks, nylon pajamas and weirdly hilarious dialogues? Yes, you get the Batman! Hasn’t it ever occurred to you that problems of immense magnitude occur all over the world but Batman does his job only in a small town called Gotham. That’s like Sachin having the ability to thrash the Aussie bowlers around but being made to bat against the Assam Ranji team.

The Batman’s sworn enemy goes by the name of the Joker. When you tend to like the villain more than the hero, you know something has gone wrong somewhere. The Joker goes around bombing hospitals, killing gangsters by shoving pens up their noses, and burning half a man and turning him into another weirdo called Half-Face or something. Kinda like Osama Bin Laden with a sense of humour.
Batman owns an amazing array of vehicles. Noting that “The Dark Knight” released in the middle of the American recession when people did not have adequate food and shelter, this guy owns a couple of Lamborghinis, a Ducati and a black wheelbarrow-like contraption labeled the Bat mobile. In one of the scenes in the Dark Knight, Batman drives around town in his Bat mobile and crashes into a blank wall, like a drunk idiot. He then proceeds to burst out of the car in a bike and goes around town once again. Fuel prices anyone? Anyway, why didn’t the guy just use the bike in the first place?

The entire cast of ‘The Dark Knight’ watched the movie the day after the world-wide release. Heath Ledger laughed so hard, he busted a vein and died.

The Batman has a female enemy. Her name is..wait for it..Catwoman. I mean how amazing is that? Throw in Spiderman and you have a whole zoo waiting for you!

Two-face is another charismatic character in this laughathon. The guy tosses a coin to take decisions and uses a coin with ‘heads’ on both sides. Some tough decision, that is. The actor portraying the character of the Head of Police in the Dark Knight also acts as Sirius Black in the Harry Potter series. Looks like all the nutcase films are interconnected. Note that the lead guy of Twilight also has a part in the Harry Potter series. Rumours are that the Joker became the crazy demented guy that he is after watching all 3 movies of Twilight back-to-back. S.Sreesanth was once a pious Church-Priest before he watched Twilight.

The Batman is being remade in Bollywood with Salman Khan in the lead role, removing his shirt whilst dancing to an item number.



Yup. Be amazed at the stupidity of mankind.
