Anti-Productivity: The Batman Complex

Is it all in Bruce Wayne's head?

I don't know how the heck I missed this video when it went up a couple of weeks ago, but it's a pretty fun, if messy, mashup of The Machinist, The Dark Knight, Inception, and Shutter Island, as well as a few more nerd-friendly movies. Best Michael Keaton cameo ever, or best Michael Keaton cameo ever?

How have I not SEEN this?!

I just say this like minutes ago. It's really good and a vet interesting way of melding the two universes. Top notch.

Fountain OST. Nice.

Michael Keaton is my favorite movie batman.

Top notch work. I'd see the hell out of that movie.

Pretty darn good, but definitely a bit messy.

Why can't this be real!?

Very impressive, I'd pay to see that and get it on Blu-Ray.

Messy is certainly the right word for it.

Wow that's even better than Titanic 2!

I can't wait to watch this movie :).

That was one of the most amazing mashups, would love something like that come to life, but.. would also like more of a Michael Caine. Can't wait until he gets his lead role in a psychological thriller, he got it down to an artform in Tangerine.

Oh wow, this was incredible!
skiddon May 12, 2011 at 2:27 p.m.
Yeah, that was pretty awesome right there.

That was insanely well put together! I agree that it got a bit messy at the end though. But damn son, that was awesome!
MisterMouseon May 12, 2011 at 4:01 p.m.
That is awesome... oh man. Props to the guy who put all of that together. Just change some of the bits and you have an awesome movie...

I think I like the Seinfeld "Serenity Now" fake trailer a tiny bit more, but I give extra props to this for using music from The Fountain - one of my favorite OSTs of all time.

Well made fan trailer is pretty fucking well made.

The Michael Keaton cameo was ruined by you writing about the Michael Keaton Cameo. Awesome mash up though!

    A time travel story with no time travel, Sound of My Voice is intimate science fiction with only one concern: constructing a smart, incredibly acted puzzle for viewers to lose themselves in.

    Review
    Sacha Baron Cohen tries to recapture the glory of his prior foreigner-in-America culture comedy, but a lack of heart and diminishing returns on the successful gimmick turns this into a movie of decent jokes a decade too late.

    When sushi becomes art as much as it is food, the art of presenting it on film becomes transformative not only to the cuisine, but the people who make it.
