Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

The movie looks incredible im just wondering who else has seen the preview or is gettin pumped up for it?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

The trailer does look good. This new movie is not directed by Joel Schumacher. I don't think that this will be as campy as the last two Batman movies.

You can view the trailer here: Batman Begins trailer

This one doesn't look anywhere as campy as the last few movies. It's about Batman's origin. It's dark like the original Batman movie which I think was the best. Really close to the old Detective comic books in which Batman began.

I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night
The whole point of this movie is to erase the memory of the last two. It's directed by Christopher Nolan, who did "Memento," and it should be in that kind of noir-ish vein. I'm beyond excited for this movie and I think it will eclipse every other superhero movie. I'm not exaggerating, either-look at this cast:

Christian Bale
Katie Holmes
Michael Caine
Morgan Freeman
Liam Neeson
Ken Watanabe
Gary Oldman
Cillian Murphy

that's a hell of an ensemble.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

yea, I hated the last Batman movie. This new one is going to be directed by Christopher Nolan, the guy who directed MEMENTO (which I thought was pretty original)(EDIT: which ken already pointed out); so hopefully the new Batman movie will kick ass (he was always my favorite childhood superhero).

Batman kicks ass as the best superhero simply because he had no super powers.

No no, he has the best super power of them all -- money... lots of it. And yeah, he was always my favorite hero when I was a kid.

Guess I'll have to check it out after all.:)

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

I know in pre-filming she was in talks about being Bruce's girlfriend. I haven't read any post production notes to confirm it though.
