I AM THAT HERO!

Dialogue at the snowed-in house tonight:

Scene: My 7-year-old son, C., is getting ready for bed. I'm watching a movie on TV and he comes over to see what's on.

Me: Hey, come here. See if you can guess what movie this is...

Shows scene of Michael Keaton sitting at a table in a mansion, while older gentleman next to him is discussing the relative merits of a character named "Vicky Vale". Keaton calls the character "Alfred", who in turn calls him "Master Bruce".

C: I don't know...

Me (knowing C likes superheroes and we watch Justice League together faithfully): Well, he's a superhero, and he has a butler named Alfred....

C (after careful thought): Um.....Larry-Boy??


Priceless....
