I would like to have a regular feature within my rants in which I take lines from movies and extract a life lesson from them. Alternatively I might pick about 5 or 10 different movies and extract all the life lessons from them that I can. But that may not work out. Nevertheless on the chance that it does this will be the first in the series. Let�s talk Batman. Original Batman. No I don't mean that crazy Adam West thing. I may be at a total loss to find a life lesson in that one. I�m talking 1989 I�m talking about the essence of Batman-ness in a movie. Keaton, Nicholson, Basinger. Those names don�t really ring do they? I don�t care. Let�s do this stupid Rick project (drumroll please)
�Hubba Hubba Hubba. Money Money Money. Who do you trust? Me? I�m giving away free money. And where (echoed in that song...the shit that I remember) is the Batman? He�s at home. Washing his tights.�
Let me explain for those who don�t have my movie brain. Who says this? Joker. When? Right before he tries to kill off most of Gotham with poison gas.
This is irony. Or something like it. Because they obviously couldn�t trust Joker. Stupid people. Yes, very ironic Rick. What was the big fat lesson thing where you make with your smartyness? Look the larger lesson here is not actually that large. I am the Master of the Obvious. This revelation should not be news for anyone. When someone starts giving you free money whatver else you do DON�T TRUST THEM. Can you buy love? probably not. happiness? I dunno. But if your trust is for sale. BAM. That�s it. Pack it in. Game over. You lose. Please somebody tell me that is so obvious they are going to have to smack me. Fucking Gotham morons. Free money. My advice when someone starts giving you free money? Kick them, take their wallet, and run because they are after your ass and they are SO up to something. In fact you better hope that you are not screwed already. Free money. Come on.
