Why does Batman make me think of dancing?
Okay, there’s a question. I went to see The Dark Knight at Oviedo’s IMAX screen, actually the smallest IMAX I’ve seen. I saw the film in the UK and wasn’t as impressed as the hype led me to believe I should be. However, watching it in Spanish, I wasn’t as annoyed by Batman’s distorted voice as in English, and I enjoyed the spectacle of it all a little more. I did have a couple of niggles though.
Batman’s riding his bike, no mudguards and cape flapping. There’s a massive wheel just behind him. Isadora Duncan time surely?
Harvey, Two Face, Dent speaks very clearly for a man with no lips and no cheek on one side of his face. You try saying anything at all with a P or an M while holding your lips apart… and where’s the constant leakage of saliva?
These are only issues because the rest of the film seems to have gone to such lengths to present a realistic world (albeit where there are caped crusaders and the like).
Oh and dancing? Well Isadora Duncan was a dancer, wore long silk scarves, in open top sports cars in the 20s. Silk scarf, spinning axle…
