Why So Serious?
In honor of The Dark Knight, opening July 18th across the country, I am going to be dedicating the month of July here at Media Junkie to both Batman and the films of Christopher Nolan.
I will be reviewing the classic 1989 Tim Burton version that originally set the standard for comic book movies, as well as the direct-to-DVD Batman: Gotham Knight, a collection of short animated films that bridge the gap between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. In addition to this, I will review all of Nolan's previous films including Batman Begins, his independent feature film debut, Following, the classic Memento, and his remake of Insomnia.
Of course, the big event of the month will be my full-length review of The Dark Knight which I pledge here and now to write and post immediately after returning from my 12:01 AM IMAX showing the morning of July 18th.
I hope you'll enjoy this month's look at one of the most talented filmmakers of our generation. To kick things off, I'll direct you to my review of Nolan's fifth feature film, The Prestige.
