Haha, is that a toupee/wig Danny De Vito's wearing? I don't recall him having that much hair in "Twins" 😛

Arnie with Yao. He dwarfs Arnie so badly (and Arnie's pretty tall himself)

Nice pic with Sly, Arnie and Bruce Willis lol

Keep up the nice work TFP!! These are awesome photos! 👆

lol, Spurs just won again too, that makes it 2-0.

Danny was wearing a wig for a movie he was making since he was still on set when that picture was taken.

I never thought anyone could make Arnie look so small besides Wilt Chamberlain, lol.

Thanks, I'll keep posting more pics.

Ooooh yeah!! Spurs up 2-0!!!

Keep up the good work with the photos TFP lol

💃

LOL that Mr.Freeze one rocks the planet.

lol, that pic cracked me up the first time I saw it too, and it still does everytime I look at it.

All they need now is two more wins and the championship is in their hands.

Thanks, I'll keep looking for more rare and funny Arnie pics, lol.

Detroit came back against Miami, you never know what might happen in the next two games.

LOL this is turning into an NBA thread!

Fact:
Only 2 teams in NBA history have ever made it back from a 2-0 deficit in the NBA Finals.

But i do hope they come back and win 1 or 2 games, otherwise it'll be too easy for SA. Btw, Manu for MVP! 😛

Detroit claw back a game !

Somehow... "I told you so" doesn't quite cut it.....

Say, have any of you seen Batman Begins?

I shall be going to watch it at the imax megascreen right after my last exam on Monday! (YAY!!)

I've heard some really good things about it. TV3 news had a review on it and the only complaint the reviewer had was that the progress at the start is kinda slow.

My mate went to watch it last night, said it was awesome as well.

Can't wait to see it! Batman is the Man lol

Have you seen Batman Begins, TFP? If so, how was it? 🙂

Yes I have, once during the midnight showing and then again later on Wednesday.

The review you said you have seen in which the reviewer claims the progress at the start of the film is slow may have been said by this person because of the following reason: Some people who view this film in theatres may not fully understand or care for the necessary backstory on Bruce Wayne's character which may cause this viewer to say something like "The beginning was too boring". Fact is though, if you are anyone who is even slightly interested in how Batman came to be then this film will undoubtedly satisfy your needs for a well-developed and in-depth story on the caped crusader.

The film perfectly balances all the elements required for a film of this nature and yet it gives you more than you could have ever dreamed of or expected. Nearly each gadget and object used by Batman is given meaning and reason unlike any film before it. Also, for the first EVER Batman is actually scary and dark, he genuinely seems like a character that would really send fear into a criminal, thug, or any person in general. The story, plot, setting, characters, etc. are all done in a believable and realistic manner that immediately makes the audience forget that they are watching something entirely fictional. I can go on for ages about this movie, but I'll leave it up to you now to go watch it and see for yourself.

I am absolutely CRAZY about Batman (and Superman). They've been my fictional idols ever since i can remember!!!

Cheers for that TFP! I look forward to watching it on Monday! 😄

Cheers!

I still want to see it in the IMAX although I have to drive about 90 miles in order to go watch it, lol. Originally I wanted to go see Spider-Man 2 at the IMAX when it was released, but this time I'm going to make sure and not miss BB.

Damn I wanna watch it badly myself.

Was a huge fan of the first two, before the latter two got completely botched.
From TFP's review, this seems to be a timely return to form !

"Batman" and "Batman Returns" were C.L.A.S.S.I.C.! I love both of them! Esp. Michelle Pfeiffer in the cat suit 😛

"Batman Forever" and "Batman and Robin" however, is a completely different story... 🙁

Just goes to show you what happens when you take a perfectly good franchise and change the directors... The 1st two Batman movies were directed by Tim Burton, and both were awesome (Michael Keaton as Batman 😄), the latter two were directed by some other director I refuse to find the name of... (with Val Kilmer 😱 and George Clooney 😱 as Batman!)

Same story goes with the Terminator franchise.

But yeah, from TFP's nice summarisation of his wonderful Batman Begins experience (skilfully written without leaking any spoilers! Cheers TFP! 🙂), i think it's safe to say the franchise is finally back to it's old glory, if not even more glory! I can't wait!

Argh, you get to see it on monday...

My last exam isn't till Friday !!!
ARGH

Thanks for the compliments and if you would like you can also read my full review of Batman Begins by clicking the link under my sig, then you can tell me what you think.

Excellent review, TFP! 👆

I dunno how you do it! You can somehow grab all the good points (and very few bad points) from the movie and compile them all into one review, which again, does not leak out any spoilers!

Schumacher gone and along with him the rubber nipples, George Clooney, and defaming movies that ruined Batman 'forever'

LOL, the rubber nipples hahahahahahahahahahaha!

The more reviews i read from you, the more eager i wait for Monday lol!

TFP's Final Review Grade: A++

I might check out some of those reviews myself, even consider posting a few in the near future.
