lol I had to share this with you guys - this is a vandelised real estate billboard on Route 9 in Saratoga Springs, NY.

This year has been a good year for movies so far, what with comicbook awesomeness including Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Wanted, The Dark Knight & Hellboy II: The Golden Army - I really think my Cineworld Unlimited card has taken a battering, and will continue to do so with forthcoming titles like The Watchmen and The Day The Earth Stood Still.

Title: The Dark Knight
Director: Christopher Nolan
Starring: Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal
Release: 25th July 2008 [UK]

Synopsis: Batman (Bale) raises the stakes in his war on crime. With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon (Oldman) and District Attorney Harvey Dent (Eckhart), Batman sets out to dismantle the remaining criminal organizations that plague the city streets. The partnership proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a reign of chaos unleashed by a rising criminal mastermind known to the terrified citizens of Gotham as The Joker (Ledger).

Ok I thought I’d give everyone a brief rundown of the movies I’ve seen recently, be them old or new, but for sake of relevance, I’ll start with the new releases I’ve watched.

Wanted

This movie is… for lack of a better word… batshit insane - but in a great way. Read my full review over at geeksofdoom.com here.

Kung Fu Panda

Another great movie, with some good voice talent from Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Jackie Chan, Angelina Jolie and Ian McShane. I’d highly recommend this to adults and kids alike. :)
