I didn't dislike this movie, it's fun and all, but I did have a really bullshit day at work before watching it and I continue to have dark thoughts about the bromance genre's impact on female characters (it turns out, divorcing female characters from love interests isn't so much creating strong female characters who aren't just there for a love story as creating female characters who have nothing to do). Also, I'm a snarky bitch at the best of times. I'm sure Sherlock would approve.

Also, I saw the Dark Knight Rises trailer.
1. I could understand Bane. It just sounded like he was talking through a gas mask, and I like the gas mask. It has a good design (less luchadore and more Giger) and it gets rid of the stupid "just pull the tubes out" thing with Bane.
2. I like that they're not only keeping Catwoman's poverty status, but making it a major motivation. Catwoman and Black Cat are the same archetype, but I've always distinguished them as Felicia being a rich bitch thrill-of-the-hunt cat burglar who deservedly reformed, while Selina is a social justice-driven cat burglar (with a side of thrill-of-the-hunt) who deservedly doesn't reform.
