Radioactive Spiders, Cosmic Radiation, Gamma Radiation etc. That's why Batman Sucks, his only special powers are an Innate Capitalism (to make the money required for his toys), and Low Self Esteem (hence the need to dress up).
------------------------------------ I will never again mention that I was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel. Dalek Dave
What are you talking about?! Batman has a super power. He got it from an obscure radioactive metal known as "neverbeatentwiceinium" First time he meets a super, he is handily defeated. Super strength, speed, or laser eyes, all are able to defeat the ninja/knight/capitalism powers. Second time is different. Sometimes it doesn't even take 2 meetings, it can kick in half way through a trouncing if the super gets cocky. My favorite demonstration of this was in a Batman/Superman cartoon where Batman shows in Metropolis and Superman gets in his face about it. Then this stuff kicked in. We see the super get all uppity and says something like "come on, you can't beat me, Bruce Wayne, I'm Superman." He responds by taking something out of his utility belt using his super power. "You peeked. Oh by the way Superman, this green stuff is called Kryptonite. Yea, I had to lead line the pocket it was in. Neat stuff huh? Here, let me point out I could hand you your ass, sissy. I'm going to go now, next time I leave this burning a hole in your chest." Superman goes home, confident that Batman will behave because he knows his secret identity. In bed he hears something looks and sees a little bat on his cape. At that point he zooms out to a skyscraper across the street and we see Batman. "Hi Kent." No one can one-up Batman.
If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.

not as cool as Tony Stark. An alcoholic who drives his own custom built vehicle. Plus he's got a heart condition.
Yeah, who knew Robert Downey Jr. could play a narcissistic alcoholic? I mean, that's like asking Snoop Dogg to play a pothead, or Paris Hilton to play a-- You get the idea. Kidding aside, though... He's an amazing actor... Looking forward to Netflix'ing Iron Man 2 when it shows up on DVD.

I remember originally being skeptical when he was cast. And then he blindsided me with awesome.
Same... The guy has serious talent, though. Lot of bad actors out there, that just play themselves and answer to a different name (Steven Segal, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt)... But RD really gets into the role. Not as much so as Johnny Depp or Gary Oldman, but still... He's good.

Oh my the classic who would beat who argument. 99.9% of the time, it's always bet on Bats. We never could work out Dr Doom vs Batman though.

That's easy. Batman would always win after the first confrontation. However, the defeat would still benefit Doom, and it'd just be a dead Doombot in front of Batman. Over the course of 30 to 40 defeats Doom would be able to then make a machine to bring back his mom but doing so would destroy the world after Batman hits some switch so Doom doesn't do it. Doom then talks about how awesome his mom was, how he misses her every day, and Batman, feeling sorry, goes out for drinks with him. Doom short circuits from drinking some brandy because that, too, was a Doombot.

Well comparing anyone to Gary Oldman is unfair. He's a chameleon. He actually scared Harrison Ford during Air Force One.
There's a reason he's my all-time favorite actor. Oldman is just a bloody genius... The big joke is that since he only does supporting roles, a lot of people never even recognize him. He's an entirely different person in every role... Not just a different name, but a different person.

I knew a girl from Georgia (the country not US state) who saw it with friends. Afterward the conversation went like this. "I am amazed they got someone from Southern Georgia to do the part. Normally you have some actor doing a bad Russian accent trying to sound Russian and screwing up everything. "He's a US actor." "No he isn't! I could probably tell you the town he's from. I am pretty sure it is (insert name I could not pronounce let alone spell here)." "When we get to the dorms you can look him up on IMDB." They then showed her 5th Element, Lost in Space, and the Professional. I think they broke her.

That's exactly the joke in Tropic Thunder... I really enjoyed that movie, and BTW, the dance of Tom Cruise really made me laugh :P
Haha... Yeah, actually I think that movie was completely stupid... I think RD was the only one keeping Ben Stiller from ruining it. The back-and-forth between RD and whoever that was playing the rapper... Hilarious. Actually though... I think that's the only movie I've ever seen where Tom Cruise didn't just play himself. Possibly his best role yet. Oh, and Matt Maconahoweveryouspellhisname was funny too.

Aha see? Circular argument. Batman would win but it's a Doombot. Ergo he never beats Doom. Doom beats Batman but Batman had already planned for this and thus turn the tables on what would, eventually, turn out to be a Doombot. :)

I think I found out how they came up with Recursion...

I just did a quick wiki. Holy crap he was married to Uma Thurman? Also did not know he was the main antagonist in Hannibal. And I'm remembering the spitting scene in friends and trying not to chortle at work.

#(%*&@##!!! I had no idea! See? That's why he's so bloody amazing... I must have seen that movie three or four times, and I never realized that was him.

I think Tom Cruise was acting like Ludacris (the big hands, the song at the end, etc). Matthew McGonnadas was funny too, but RDjr was really awesome (the part where he have a existential crisis, and takes off all the make-up, is GREAT)
