Girth-am City


[In anticipation of the release of The Dark Knight Rises, here is a post from my old blog that I originally published on the release date of the last installment, July 18, 2008 (one link has been updated). I've also written about Batman before on this blog. Check them out!]


The Dark Knight opens today, and I'm pretty excited to see it tonight. Batman is my favorite movie franchise, but I'm not the type of fan to wear a costume to a midnight showing. I had no problem donning the tights for Halloween '03, however, even though it looks like I ate Robin.

Even though I look like George Clooney, and I've really enjoyed every non-Clooney Batman movie that's been made in my lifetime, when it comes to costumes, the Adam West version is clearly the way to go. A friend pointed out that I have no shark repellent on my utility belt, but other than that I think I pull it off pretty well--and even though my physique isn't great, this doesn't look good on anybody.
