Hmm, okay so, I didn't actually see Batman Begins because basically...the trailer put me off, it didn't seem like a "Batman" movie trailer at all.
Now I'm all for franchises getting a fresh new start but I just wasn't that excited at the trailer and I have yet to see the movie, maybe one day I will, when I'm bored...
The thing about the sequals though, eventual as they are, I feel that bringing back villians and characters already done in previous films is an insult to the movies made by Tim Burton and Joel, fine, so not everyone might have liked them but it's basically saying "F--- you, I can do a better job!" and I don't think thats fair.
Someone brought up a good point about Tim Burton bringing Batman to the big screen and him using villians from the TV show to the big screen, therefore rehashing the character people already knew and this I am in favour of because it is a transition from Television to Movie and the same characters being used and/or modified is expected in this capacity.
So I don't think it would be fair on those characters and the actors hwo played them to suddenly see yet another version.
