Can't breathe. Too funny.

Off a comment for someone else's review of the current Batman R.I.P. story arc (bolding mine)...

I'm going to be fairly annoyed if, after all the hype and "OMG Batman changed 4evar!!1!!" crap we've been hearing since the first RIP solicits, the Batman laid to rest is just the Batman of Zur En Arr. Getting really tired of false threats of change and total shake-ups by the Big Two.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Stop you're killing me!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yer doing it wrong

ntwrth_memberin has decided to become a nihilist, so that reality will stop disappointing him. Which is very much the half-assed way to do it. He should mentally invest in apathetic nihilism like me. Thats when everything sucks and nothing good ever happens and everything everywhere is horrible BUT you just can't bring yourself to care...

But all things in moderation

But then again, just because you're all about the apathy, thats no reason not to do the dance of joy that the evil hate-mongering son-of-a-bitch Jesse Helms has finally died...

There Will Be Blood

Even if you ignore the acting of Day Lewis and Paul Dano as Eli (who are both stellar). And discounting this adapted Upton story of oil-drilling in early 20th century California (which is powerful). Or Johnny Greenwood's score which overlays much of the dialogue light sequences (which is perfect in adding to the impact and not overwhelming the moment). Even if you set ALL of that aside, this movie is worth watching for Robert Elswit's cinematography, which is just pure fucking brilliance...
