The answer is Batman. I'd like to see what someone who isn't Michael Keaton can do in the role.

Ya mean like Christian Bale, George Clooney or Adam West? Me too.

But ya are, Blanche! Ya are in that chair!

When St. Bede's (my neighborhood) got cable in 1986, this was the second movie I watched. Whoa!! It wasn't an experience I have ever forgotten. It twisted my guts--in terms of empathy and anxiety--but it was also hilarious and scary.

The first movie was Maximum Overdrive. I told my sister that the only reason the main actor got the job was because he looked like the guy from Apocalypse Now. I also thought the chick was pretty hot. But when I got done watching, I was like, that movie kind of sucked.

That reminds me. Apocalypse Now wasn't the masterpiece many think it is now imo. It could use a reworking.

I still just love parts of it but it’s not one that draws me back over and over. Still cracks me up that my folks took me to see at the old Arcada theatre when I was 4 and they couldn’t find a sitter. I can only imagine the grief my father got for that decision.
