ABC Family's Batman Begins Promo Is Awful

ABC Family's Batman Begins Promo Is Awful

"He fights for family and lives for love." ABC Family is going to be showing Batman Begins, but its promo makes it sound less like a kick-butt superhero movie and more like a cheesy romantic comedy.

Batman Begins ranks as one of the best comic book movies created to date, but you'd never know it from this ABC promo. While it completely misses the point, tone, and message of the movie, it is at least good for a laugh. There is no parody like self-parody.
