Yet another remake of the Batman-Joker origin stories? That’s all it appears Hollywood is interested in filming.

I was meaning more along the lines of what the LA Times writer said, “movies like “The Dark Knight” — with its themes of a destruction-bent enemy that can’t be bargained with, and the question of what constitutes an acceptable ethical compromise in fighting that enemy — have captured our imagination.”

Not specifically a Batman-Joker origin story, although I don’t think The Dark Knight qualifies as an origin story for either, but movies with a little more going on than white hats vs black hats.
