Batman Unmasked: The Psychology of the Dark Knight
9 pm/ET HISTORY New
As filmgoers prepare to see the latest Batman film, this documentary offers some insight into the psychological dynamics of The Dark Knight. The character has always fascinated fans because he's as human and vulnerable as we are. He's not a superhero with extraordinary powers who accepts his role; he's an angry and outraged man who chooses to be an avenger, and that makes him a compelling subject for contemplation. This hour explores the root of his obsession, the mythology of the character and the phenomenon of the vigilante. — Bill Ecklund

Hey, something new on TV.  Sounds good.  I was watching THS last night - a show about magnets.  Very cool.

Batman documentary, eh?  Sounds very cool.  I can really feel the fever building for the new film.  The advanced reviews I've heard make it sound like it will be the greatest thing since sliced bread.  Looking forward to seeing it!
