For that matter, where the hell is Martha Wayne in the comics themselves? Thomas gets all the love and focus in his flashbacks, it seems.
I dare say it's worth seeing if you at all care about being in on something which shall undoubtedly influence nerd-culture for awhile. The AV Club already reported, as if it were actual pop culture news, that the Urban Dictionary has the word "ineption" for anybody who doesn't appreciate INCEPTION. So there you go.
Huh! Sounds intriguing, I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
Eh, I noticed that even the most ignorant writers seems to at least dedicate a panel for the character but sadly not many writers (including Paul Dini sadly) are interested in developing the character. However, there have been some good Martha Wayne stuff, there's that one DCAU tie in issue with wittle Bruce and Martha, the Batman:Family mini series involving a villain named Celia whose origin is tied to Martha, Batman: Death and Maiden (written by Greg Rucka) and I even heard about an interesting Martha Wayne-centric book which deals with child slavery in Turkey, not sure wth happened to that. I think the problem is, that unlike Thomas, no one has really taken the bait and started developing what other writers have set-up. :(
I guess I should, the last thing I want is to fall back on today's pop culture nerdiness.
It was released in 2008 and very popular, so I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to find it. Plus, I don't think I would have had the heart to recommend it were it not for the fact that Aamir Khan was starring in it. Whatever he has done this decade since Fanaa is worth watching. Also, I listed another potentially interesting movie that was released last week.
