Holy shitballs, Batman!
Are you f#*%ing kidding me?!?
A live Batman experience?
Featuring martial arts, aerial acrobatics, stunning special effects and, most importantly, no lame singing?
ARE YOU F#*%ING KIDDING ME?!?
This is amazing. The only thing that would make me happier is if Jay Leno had a cameo in the show as the diabolical “Mr. Chin” and was promptly decapitated by the Joker who then punted Leno’s severed two ton, fat, talk show stealing, skunk-haired head into the crowd.
Apparently Batman Live will focus on the origin of Robin and will feature the Batcave, Batmobile as well as villains The Joker, The Riddler and Catwoman.
The producers chose to put on the show in arenas as it allows them to use a a long runway stage and a giant 130 foot video screen that will provide stunning backdrops and animations to drive the story along.
The man behind the show, Nick Grace, described the show as this:
There is dialogue but the scenes are short, snappy and full of action. We basically wanted to bring the excitement of a comicbook to stage.”
Man, am I excited. This show is going to be like nerd fanboy crack. Better yet, if it’s a success they’ll probably produce a sequel.
Batman.
Live.
My body hasn’t tingled all over like this since my grade 6 substitute teacher Miss Lee leaned over my desk with her heavenly cleavage and used one of her ruby red fingernails to highlight and explain the word “photosynthesis,” even though I damn well knew all there was to know about plants using sunlight to convert CO2 into organic compounds.
