About Lee: Former students' union president and intermitent blogger since the turn of the century, who's aim is to promote objective thinking and a break from partisan politics when discussing the issues of the day. Wed 30th Jul 2008
It has to be done, I'm a big Batman fan and to overlook the chance to review this film would be...well...I wouldn't feel right, so here it is, like it or not. If you don't want to read someone else's opinion I would recommend Millennium Elephant's account, though be warned, there are spoilers. But then, there will also be spoilers in my review, so if you haven't seen it then perhaps you should check out some Politalks stuff that will be coming back soon.

I haven't got much to say about this, but when I saw the news last night it really knocked me unexpectedly. This guy was a talent that got on with the job and didn't really subscribe to the celebrity culture, I guess that got him more respect than I realised. Sad news.

Latest Politalks:
So what the hell is going on, Labour are slumping in the polls and yet those most naturally in their shadow able to take their place (the Lib Dems) are failing to capitalise in the polls. And even though the Tories are enjoying high times so much they must think it's the 80's all over again (in more ways than one) they have failed to deliver one serious or credible attack against the government that would show them to be the true heir's to the throne. So to speak. Anyway, on with this weeks Politalks. NSFW as usual, transcript can be found if you go through to read more!
