Meet the Mayor: Bat Cave

Welcome to "Meet the Mayor," a segment in which we interview local Foursquare Mayors in their natural habitats.

Bat Cave
James Christopher Knoerl

Why name your Berklee dorm room the "Bat Cave"?
I asked my roommate what we should name it, and that's what he said. I didn't give him any argument.

Supposedly, Robin won't be in The Dark Knight Rises. The fuck?
I guess Christopher Nolan doesn't like sweet sidekicks. Robin's pretty badass. I'd pick Robin over any other sidekick.

Are there other badass sidekicks? Aqualad?
Barnacle Boy is a legit sidekick.

Does Bane's marble mouth concern you?
It's going to be a sweet movie. It can't be bad.

They always manage to fuck up the third movie in these trilogies.
The Return of the King was good. Revenge of the Sith was good. The third Matrix movie was all right.

Lots of people would argue with that last part.
That's why I said "all right." There are good third movies ... just not all.

If Batman started a band, what would they sound like?
Batman would be in a sludge-metal band. Bane would play drums. Joker would play keyboards. Robin would be backup vocals. Catwoman would be the singer, and she would be inhale-screaming. They would play drop-A guitars with nine strings. They would be awful.
