Batman Begins Watched Superman 2 and noticed....

[NolGoyHater]

I was watching the Richard Donner Superman 2 and realized that the guy in Houston Control is the same useless old man in the water tower office in Batman Begins. You know the flabby old man who utters the obvious outcome if the water vaporizer reaches the water tower. That was probably the worst part in the whole movie for me. Not the whole ending, just him talking. It irks me. They need a recut of BB badly.

Thought I would share. If this has been noticed before, my bad.

Anyways, carry on.

Good find... anyways... get over it.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

who, Shane Rimmer

oh ya, that was him (i think he was also was in superman III)

why didn't they get John Ratzenberger lol

 

[OBSERVER]

Nolan used him because he has been in a couple of Bond movies.

 

[zer00]

They ripped off BB

I guess the BB boards have really run out of things to debate.

 

[thedarks0ldier]

If SHH threads were Universes, The Batman thread would be the equivelent to Marvel Universe Earth-2149, the Marvel Zombies... I call dibs on being Colonel American...

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

The Batman thread? Marvel Universe? Earth 2149? Zombies?

What the hell?

 

[zer00]

I say

we wreck um

we stab um

we bash um

**** wrong thread

 

[dude stannis]

I guess the BB boards have really run out of things to debate.

They should get Richard Donner, to recut every superhero movie. Just for the sake of providing discussions for places like this.

Edit

 

[I Am The Knight]

I do hate that old man's dialogue too. Oh what the hell, nitpicking is here to stay ....Thanks NolGoyBasher.

 

[BatFitz]

I'm sure Nolan wouldn't have included that dialogue had the prime audience of a Batman movie not been kids and a general audience lacking some brain cells.

 

[Lazlo Panaflex]

who, Shane Rimmer

oh ya, that was him (i think he was also was in superman III)

In Superman 3 he was the cop who orders the bus to stop at the chemical plant.

He was also in SW:A New Hope as he's telling Luke about getting another R2 unit for his X-Wing.

 

[CConn]

The dude's a legend.

 

[zer00]

He was born of silver and blood

 

[Miranda Fox]

What a superb thread. I feel I should give this the utmost respect it deserves.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

lol.....I find it funny as **** that a thread created to bash Batman Begins, Chris Nolan and one scene in the film......has become a Shane Rimmer Appreciation Thread. The dude's resume is pretty cool, actually.
