In my dreamland where I am king ...

You know what I want? I want Batman to have a worthy female antagonist where it isn't all about teh sex (yes I know, everything is about sex, but anyway). I realize this is too much to ask for Nolan and his studio money but I can dream, right? Ooh, reboot Oracle as a villain, then you could take some of what TDK seemed to be trying to say about technology and play with it.

(Now stop right there. No, I sure as hell am not saying Oracle is a neuter because she's a paraplegic. I've read some damned hot paraplegic Barb fic - and wouldn't mind seeing more. I am certainly referring to the fact that she largely doesn't operate in the physical world.)

Mostly though I want to see a woman kick his ass without feeling the need to hump his leg in the process.

You know what else? Is there any chance we could backtrack a bit to the part where Batman is the Dark Knight Detective? The part where he uses his mind as well as his neato fighting skills and expensive gadgets?

(Obviously I need to watch BB and TDK again to remember that I really like them. It's just that the whole Catwoman vs. Talia debate that's going on in regards to the next movie makes me a little cranky.)
