Life Lessons for Earthlings and Others: Lessons From Gotham

January 31, 2011 by SarahI Leave a Comment

By Sarah Ingerson
Over the summer, my geeky coworkers kept saying how much they loved Batman: Under the Red Hood. Since I happened to see it while browsing the Sci-fi section of Netflix, I thought I’d give it a try, especially when I realized Jensen Ackles voiced the Red Hood. And I love me some Jensen Ackles even though Supernatural isn’t very good this year…Sadness. But, I have to say the sarcastic one liners were pretty awesome. As was Robin’s really awkward speedo. He wasn’t even wearing tights with it! Although I’m not sure why I think tights would have made it manlier. But anyways, before I get into a debate over the manliness of tights, I’d better start talking about the life lessons I gathered.

Life Lessons from Batman: Under the Red Hood:

  1. 1. Make a wire-tapping bug as noticeable as possible.Put a Batman symbol on it. Give it a blinking red light. Anything you want because apparently, crime bosses won’t notice.
  2. 2. Modern criminals aren’t very fashionable.According to the Joker, they’re more motorcycle fetish than flashy maitre d’ now.
  3. 3. Train stations can explode and still be functional.Apparently, tracks aren’t necessary.
  4. 4. Superheroes like short shorts.And heavy duty jock straps. Either that or they’re built like Ken dolls.
  5. 5. A villain’s makeup determines his evilness.If he only has eyeliner, he is a reformed villain. If he has full face makeup, he is hardcore evil. But either way, if he’s wearing makeup, he’s some sort of evil.
