Ben as the Bat

Ok, so he's the next Batman...
That's not really my concern. He's got the acting chops to do it and I'm sure when they go to work on his physique and his knowledge of all things Batman, he'll be ready. No, I don't want to hear about Daredevil or any other bad movie he's ever done—if we thought like that, most great movies wouldn't get made for fear of what any actor did once upon a time.

So let's look at my concerns for this movie.

1)
This Batman won't be what we get this go'round—Bat fans know what I'm talking about. I loved Bale, I loved this Trilogy; I love Nolan's world/version of Batman...but like a different comic series, though this new take on the Caped Crusader will have a variety of the same themes and plot points, it'll be something else. Bigger. It has to be, specifically because the Boy Scout is involved. If people can't scrub what Bale/Nolan did from their minds, it's going to really hurt the movie.

2)
So who is the Batman we need?
  • Genius-level intellect: speaks a dozen or more languages, holds degrees in a variety of fields and disciplines 
  • Peak physical (Olympic/Professional level) conditioning: Requires 2-4hrs sleep
  • Master martial artist: 127 styles of martial arts including Muay Thai, Escrima, Krav Maga, Capoeira, Savate, Yawyan, Taekwondo, Judo, Jujitsu, Ninjitsu, Kendo, Fencing, Kenjitsu, Kali, Bojutsu, Francombat, Boxing, Kickboxing, Hapkido, Wing Chun, Parkour, Shorin Ryu, Silat, Chin Na, Hokuto Shinken, Kyudo, Aikido, Varma Adi, Jeet Kune Do, Shaolin, Ba Gua, Hung Gar, Tai Chi, Kung Fu, Kenpo, and Karate
  • Master detective: + or - Sherlock Holmes; equipped with the Bat Cave's infamous Bat Computer, which is linked into everything 
  • Master escapologist
  • Master strategist
  • Master tactician
  • Master marksman
  • Highly proficient with almost any high-tech (Secret Gov/Private Wayne Tec/Alien) equipment, weapons, armors, gadgets, programs, systems, etc.
  • Master of stealth
  • Exceptional pilot and driver  
  • Master of disguise and interrogation: his presence and ability to intimidate are second to none
  • His willpower is only superseded by Hal Jordan's
  • Access to vast, nearly unquantifiable wealth spread over the global economy.  
  • Photographic memory  
This is the Batman We Need. This is the Perfect Batman. The Justice Leauge Batman.
If we don't get it, what's the point? What's his purpose?

GENESIS (All Reviews)

 Ok, Now they're all in one place: Amazon, B&N and Goodreads :) Amazon Customer September 29, 2016 5/5 A great read with deep underlying themes. By Author Jon Sprunk A wonderful blend of philosophy, spirituality, and intrigue that covers a clash of cultures and religion. Jak is a hero of the modern age, unsure and yet ready to face the challenges that await him. Amazon Customer September 22, 2016 5/5  GrimDarker ! I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and everything in between. Pacing was great and Wade seemed to have a unique idea told in a new voice. Loved it. I would definitely recommend this one to anyone interested in fantasy, especially you GrimDark fans. Amazon Customer   September 9, 2016 5/5 The next Erikson If you loved Erikson you will love this!

Reivew: The Dark Tower

I've read the whole series and I've read all the comics... I enjoyed the movie. Lots of good things to talk about it. Few bumps. One or two bad moments. Overall, good movie. I hope they make more. So, let's get into it—and since I enjoyed the movie, it won't be that long of a review: more to talk about when it sucks :)  So, this is the world you know.... Now, the WHEEL has turned and Roland has been returned to the beginning....and yet, it's not the beginning as you know it, nor is THIS "The Gunslinger" the same as the one you've read, the world has moved on and many things have changed and yet some things are still the same ..... So, that's crucial point in understanding and accepting this movie as BOTH (book) 8 and yet the start of a WHOLE NEW ADVENTURE.  IF YOU CAN'T ACCEPT THAT, DON'T EVEN BOTHER WATCHING THE MOVIE   But for those who can, let us continue.    !SPOILERS! ...

Ink Master is BACK!

Yep. It's back! So let's do the rundown since we're already two episodes in.  FIRST!  They had to earn their shops this time, which was a fun and cool concept. By watching them do Convention Style Tattooing, you got to see a range of their skills. Most everyone did ok, with a few pointers needed here'n'there: Matti Hixson, Scott Marshall and Sausage (yes, that's his name) rounding out the overall best. Then they got into the final tattoos of the day, which was their choice...David Bell did a crushed skull and since he didn't represent it as being such, I think that's why he got picked out for it not being "readable"; but I think it was a cool. Randy Vollink did a water-color ship, which didn't look bad, but wasn't up to par. Keith Diffenderfer did an ugly, ghoulish woman...SORRY, no one wants an ugly chick on their body, I don't care who you are and the judges told him so. Everyone else kinda fell in the middle thereafter a...
