Michael Keaton doesn't kidnap babies. I'm almost positive.

This is possibly the most random dream I've had in a while.  I don't remember seeing anything relating to Michael Keaton prior to having this nightmare. 

A couple of weeks ago I had this bizarre dream and it took place at this fancy, swanky party with hot, pink silk-like wall drapes and cocktail tables.  There were a lot of people.  It was crowded and smoky.  I remember having this trying-to-catch-my-breath moment and was running through the crowd of people in slow motion trying to find Austin.  Somehow, Austin was lost and I was trying to find him.  Completely random though because what would Austin be doing at a swanky, alcohol-filled, smoky party?  (Hitting o
n the ladies - that's what!)

I find Michael Keaton gripping Austin at his side and was not able to hear what Michael Keaton was saying.  Not sure if he was trying to negotiate Austin's release or trying to sell me on why Batman Returns was a good movie.  All I remember is grabbing Austin and taking off. 

Then, last week Batman Returns was on cable and I had a mini panic attack.  I find it weird how dreams can have that affect on people even after having them because, for me, the worst thing ever would be losing Austin to anyone or anything.

The lesson here:  Try to not watch much cable TV right before bed because it's almost inevitable that bad movies will invade them.

I've had recurring dreams about being chased (hunted down) by Robert Wagner :) lol
I don't know why my subconscious chose him to chase me but it freaked me out everytime I heard about him or watched a program with him in it :) lol

Michael Keaton is a creepy looking bastard, so, somehow, I am not surprised that he showed up in a dream as something of an antagonizing figure.

Wasn't Michael Keaton Mr. Mom? Wait, I'm not sure if that makes the dream more or less creepy.

You are the second person I've heard of having a nightmare about Michael Keaton kidnapping babies.

I'm trying to figure out what that means, but the best I can come up with is that there is a limit to the number of nightmare topics, so reruns had to show up sometime...
