I got into a discussion last night about the filming downtown and who's playing whom. Apparently the movie's filming is being disguised as a movie called "Rory's first kiss" or some shit like that. Shenanigans, we all know the truth. So anyway, the conversation led to my good friend thinking "Begins" was a prequel to the 89 movie. I'm sure most of the general movie going public thought the same. I quickly told her it wasn't and the Joker is in "The Dark Knight". She got upset! I tried explaining to her, for the next half an hour, that "Begins" is a revamp of the franchise after it tanked under Schumaker's direction. Anyone else here have a tough time getting it through to someone what the difference was between a prequel, sequel, and reinvisioning?
