George Orwell's 1984 Is Becoming a 5-Part Limited Series with a Twist

They are going to Hollywoodize it for sure.

Subversive twist... Big Brother is benevolent, and Winston Smith is an unreliable narrator, a white supremacist, and a sexist.

George Orwell's 1984 Is Becoming a 5-Part Limited Series with a Twist

Big media, without irony, rewrites the history of Orwell's 1984 to fit their own narratives of the dystopian threat facing society today, and presents it on telescreens to the households of the world. Those who point this irony out are condemned for their individuality and independent thinking. 

From the Batman TV series. 

Listen to the address Batgirl gives out, is this an obscure joke (for the time) or just a made up address?

I don't know, but that rabbit hole led to this video:

And a memory of playing "Batman" with the neighbor kid who was about 4 years older than me when I was maybe 4 or 5, and his sister who was a couple of years older than he was. 

Of course, having just seen this episode, one of them decided we had to be a human knot. 

It was weird - and the most vivid memory I have of it was her leg stubble hurting my face. 

Most people I know have hardly any vivid memories from before they were six or seven... I kinda envy them. :)

Once again zooer, we seem to watch the same things on youtube.

My feed has been chockers with Batman clips lately (mainly because I keep clicking on them).

And in case anyone even thinks of claiming otherwise: Adam West is the ONLY legitimate Batman.  All others are poseurs.

Sounds fun to me.

Essentially correct 

The ONLY Batmobile was the Futurama version from the 1966 TV series.

The original wasn't bad but it had no style

Every time I see this version I think how ugly having the spare tire in the front looks.

This was just silly, laughable

That wasn't the spare tire it was air intake for the turbine.

Yes he's the only batman.  But, only Christian Bale could be the dark night.

They were different characters in the books. So room for both in the movies.  i recently sold my dark night leather edition. Not into comics but i came into a bunch some 30 years ago. Took the box down to a local collector late last year.  I guess that superman #1 was worth a few bucks. ( just kidding. Even i know that is valuable as hell )

I know that, it looks like a spare tire.

Ah ok.  (  i missed humor again didnt i )

I don't remember her being very cute. She was greek... and reminded me a little bit of Olive Oyl. :)

I think the original Batmobile looks far classier - more James Bond, with a lot of European racing styling cues. 

The later one is clearly a Pontiac. American muscle car crap. It LOOKS awesome, and probably made a helluva noise and tore up the pavement - as long as the Penguin didn't make any non-left turns they probably would catch him every time. :) 

Don't get me wrong - it is the most bad-ass Batmobile ever... 

But I'd rather have the Mach 5.

The dark knight isn't Batman.  He's some random bat-like n00b.

I've never seen Christian Bale throw a punch and have it go "ZOWIE!"
