I always thought Batman was the best superhero...he didn't need no powers!

jrthebassguy said:Hate to stray this to a batman topic...but I'd love to see another real batman movie (not catwoman). Preferably Johnny Depp as the caped crusader. That would kick copious amounts of booty.
Wrong Robot said:Yeah, I know what you mean, like Return of the King, there were like 4 different ending set up scenes, but then it just kept going!

Brendan said:This is a myth. Batman does indeed have superpowers.
He has the super power of winning. Seriously, think about it for a minute. Green Lantern went insane, there have been many Flashes, Superman has died, and Swamp Thing regularly died. Spider-man has had to have other people do his work for him, and has had a few major, non-winning setbacks (both pre and post Crisis)
Batman has what, had his back broken by Bane in the Knightfall arc? But he healed from that. All the baddies, all the alien (Predator and Alien brands, among others), all the other superheroes, and he manages to come out on top, to fight the next night's battle. Fight it if you want, go ahead and tell me it's his kung-fu, his burning intellect, his "luck," or determination, but when you get down to it, Batman has won more times than he aught. Heck, in many different arcs (Dark Knight Returns, Kingdom Come), he's still Batmanning at 60+. These are not the feats of normal humans.
Batman is a superhuman, like it or not. He has the ability to win. I will stand by this, thick and thin. Batman DOES have superpowers. Not that it's infallible, of course (say, if he had to fight Dr. Doom), but it's his power.
Edit - and don't give me that "Robin Dying" crap. 1- THat's his sidekick losing. 2- Even Batman's moved on and got himself Tim Drake. So, ixnay that.

freshmeat1989 said:I saw Spiderman 2 today. It was awesome! There are definately awesome special effects. The train scene is wicked! I'm debating whether or not there will be a 3rd one. Hmmm, I hope. I hope theres a 3rd one. I dont want Harry to turn bad, I dont think he will.
Brendan said:And Hobgobin is something esle entirely. He's a being from another dimension with an entirely different agenda than the Green Goblin(s). Pure demon, no human about him; definitely not Harry.
I couldn't remember...I quit watching spiderman on TV when I realized that the movie was better...and I've never read the comics so I didn't know...I just figured it might be Harry...I'm wrong...okay...
