So I'm sitting on the Chinatown Bus doing my thing, which this week involved watching The Dark Knight special features. When all of a sudden an older woman in front of me pulled an ear of corn out of her bag, shucked it and started gnawing on the thing. Then when she got all the kernels off, she did it AGAIN with another ear of corn!!
Uh, that really wasn't the point of this story, but it was just too weird to pass up.
So I was watching The Dark Knight special features and I have to say they are quite underwhelming when compared with the cool stuff on Batman Begins. But probably one of the more interesting features is six episodes of Gotham Tonight, a fictional TV news show where the host is convinced Gotham city officials should hunt and arrest Batman.
Like any good fictional TV news show, it had a ticker running at the bottom of the screen that displayed headlines like "Harvey Dent promises to rid Gotham of organized crime" and "The Gotham Times revenue down 18 percent because of declining ad sales and sliding standards."
WHAT! The newspaper in Gotham is having a hard time selling ads and newspapers when a guy dressed like a bat is beating criminals to a pulp every night? Not to mention some creepy terrorist tried to release poisonous gas through the water system recently, all the nutjobs broke out of Arkham Asylum, the monorail crashed and now some guy with paint all over his face is killing people with no motive?
Damn it. I know newspapers are having a hard go of it right now, but this is just ridiculous.
