I'm not sure Conroy would be right for this particular Batman, though. Not that I wouldn't want to hear his take on it
Kevin is in his late 50's, I'm sure older Batman wouldn't be too hard for him. I liked his take on the old Bruce Wayne in Batman Beyond and that was over 10 years ago.
Yeah, but Dark Knight Returns Batman is fucking nuts.
I watched Donnie Darko (theatrical cut) for the first time last night and was very pleasantly surprised. It was like John Hughes flipped out and wrote a movie while running a high fever. It was a little vague and left some loose ends (the mysterious old lady in particular), but I really liked the pacing, moodiness, and music.
I'm tempted to get the director's cut, but apparently it kind of ruins the pacing and mood in the course of cramming in a bunch of slightly-less-vague nonsense about how Donnie's universe works.
Any opinions?
The only thing I've seen of Richard Kelly's is The Box, and I'm not going within a mile of any of his movies after that.
Southland Tales is crazy genius at times. Well, one time,lol. The best clip can be seen online though. In fact, it's here-
I just saved you two and a half hours of shite. 
Uh...alright. I think I'm missing some sort of context here.
Huh?
What's with the grammar thing?

Exactly.
It appears that one of us has wandered into the wrong thread......
Are you saying you need context of the clip above or that I have poor grammar?

Sigh. Fine. I'll explain it for you.
You post a random clip claiming crazy genius. I watch, have no clue whats going on or why it deserves any sort of crazy genius label. I throw up a post saying I need context, followed by an xkcd comic demonstrating an example of lacking context (In this case you're the dude running on stage, and I'm the audience going, "Obviously we're missing something").
Clear?

So, you were just being a bit of a smartarse then? Ok, there is no real context, it is just a random scene in a film that doesn't make any real sense. That is why I called that particular scene crazy genius. The fact it has no context to the overall film is hi-lighted by the fact that that clip was actually used to advertise the film. The picture you posted was completely unnecessary, all you had to do was ask me what the context was rather than simply trying to be a smartarse.
Clear?
Ugh, that guy was drinking Budweiser. Poor man
And he poured it over his head too. Mental! On the other hand, he's Justin Timberlake, so......
New "Starship Troopers" movie in the works.

I just finished watching The Raid (Serbuan Maut). It's basically 80 minutes of this:
If you like action flicks go watch it right now. It's awesome.
You're a bit late to the party on The Raid, Lamer it has been mentioned a few times on this thread
Just messing with you, glad you liked it, it's a great action film.
To be fair, a few times is not nearly enough mentions. The film is Awesome with a capital A.
And all that awesomness for only $1,100,000.
I can't wait to see how hollywood is going to butcher this movie and remake it into a 40 million dollar, PG-13, generic shooter full of wire fu and cuts so fast it'll make your TV bleed... 
We should mentione the Raid all the time now. If not every page, at least every two.
It's out in the UK September 24th on Blu Ray and DVD. Look at this exclusive steelbook cover that UK online retailer Play.com have-
The cover art is by Jock, the dude who illustrated most issues of The Losers comic (and fellow Scot who is from East Kilbride which is quite close to me). And the UK has an exclusive director's commentary, apparently. It's on my birthday presents list for October
Please tell me that's Region-free. The US release has the shittiest cover art imaginable, I mean look at this cluttered mess: 
I want that UK steelbook soo bad, The Raid is the best action film in years.
ParaNorman. 3D printed stop motion - cheating?
God, that US Raid cover is bad,what is with the RT 'certified fresh' logo??? Even the normal UK Blu is better than that, even if it is a tad inaccurate-
Not sure if it is region free yet.

Does it look awesome?
So it doesn't really matter how they made it.

So my question is how does it differ from a pure CG film? In terms of man-hours, is there a significant cost saving? There will still be a post process, will it get made faster? Why make a film this way?
