I’ve been a Batman FAN-atic all my life; I read the
comic books, watched weekend re-runs of the vintage (original) Batman series
starring Adam West; can I just express how drop it like it’s hot gorgeous Eartha
Kitt was as cat woman? This is where I would totally do my best Jim Carey’s The
Mask voice…SMOKIN’!

I was absolutely addicted to the Saturday Morning Warner Brothers
Cartoon series [insert displeasing feeling of dating myself]. I even begged my
Aunt and Uncle-BEGGED- to take me and the cuzzo to Six Flags during opening
week of both Batman the Ride and The Riddler’s Revenge, which I still to this
day, have to ride every time I visit that theme park. Not to mention how many
times I watched Tim Burton’s Batman
film(s) adaptation, despite the revolving door of leading man role changes of my
beloved Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton- you’re still the shizz wiz as Batman…shout
out my Dark Knight brother, shout). And let’s not even go there with the
adopting of the first, heavily Prince orientated, soundtrack that I played
without skipping a beat, each day before and after school.
Yes, I am a Batman
Fan; hardcore, unapologetic, certifiably branded, Batman fan-FRIGGIN-atic. But
not even my fan-filled ass was prepared for the three-peat Lollapalooza that is
now being called the new generation Batman Trilogy. From the very first scene
in Batman Begins, to the performance to end ALL performances in history- Heath
Ledger as the Joker- I WAS HOOKED. After The Dark Knight and the untimely
death of an actor that was sure to set Hollywood ablaze with absolutely no
limit to his acting potential, I was really nervous about what to expect from
the last Batman film of the soon legendary and epic trilogy conclusion.
Alas, they proved my worries merely speculative,
and after watching this brief trailer, you’ll understand why…
Holy frijoles! Does that not look AH-Ma-zing or
what! And…It’s coming to theaters the day of my birthday! I’m stoked. STOKED.
The anticipation is killing me slowly, but I’m super excited about taking some
much needed “me” time, and spending it at my local theater, with my favorite
comic book hero.
Are you planning on taking some much needed you
time to head to your local theater this summer? If so, leave me a comment or
email me.
