Short-List
I’ve been meaning to link to a few short films I’ve dug up links to while kicking ’round the web so here goes:
First up is Robin’s Big Date, which stars Sam Rockwell (who, it would seem, can make just about any character awesome) as ‘The Bat-Man’ and Justin ‘Mac’ Long as Robin. It’s about The Bat-Man barging in and ruining Robin’s date. It’s pretty much everything the real Batman movies aren’t. Which is to say: hilarious. Watch it here! (Hat tip to Cinematical.)
Next: Consent written and directed by Jason Reitman. He’s not a household name yet but might be soon enough if he continues to put out great films like Thank You for Smoking. Be a responsible adult and get those consent forms signed (meaning watch it). (Hat tip to Kottke.)
