I love the fact that they're using some of the comics as a point of reference. Nice to have people working on a movie who actually respect the subject matter.

i agree completely,in fact that's the only way to do it.for me there will always be one writer for batman...frank miller and for those of you who don't know who he is...CHECK HIM OUT!!his writing,his art is some of the finest in the business(batman,sin city(which they're also making a movie of),big fat kill among others)which incidently is where they got the title "year one"from.as for all the previous batman films...they suck(which the exceptions of burton's films,for there time and place..they were good)and little to no actual source material was used.someone asked earlier in the thread about the "other"(michal gogh) alfred...he's dead.and finally to those bitchin about this movie's "place" on hdc.there are undenable horror elements in this movie as well as fantasy and an overall suspension of disbelief...now how for removed from horror does that make it?
