More Batman

There's an interesting post about the politics of The Dark Knight at Cogitamus. While DymaxionWorldJohn isn't talking about the gender politics of the film, he makes a good point:

...we really shouldn't be arguing about politics through film. The simple arguments are rooted in bad films, and good films give you arguments whose conclusions might surprise you.

Of course, when it comes to gender it's not like there's some ambiguous message in the film - women just aren't there.
