OT: The Batman
Meh. Had some expectations and it was very mediocre to unsatisfactory. Watched it on HBO Max....glad I didn't go the movie theater. Well-acted but the story was thin.
In my que now...Thats what I suspected unfortunately.
We started Tokyo Vice, like it a lot so far.

Just watched a new doc on Three Mile Island on Netflix....very good.
The DC movies just don't translate unfortunately. The writing and acting usually suck. I did love the Christopher Nolan series. I am going to watch this but I was never going to the theater for it. It sucks because DC has so many great characters.
I saw it in theaters, really liked it! It’s definitely dark in a way that makes me kind of sad. Like my kid is running around in Batman pajamas but I won’t be showing him this movie anytime in the next decade plus. But for adult dorks like me I thought it was good.
For context, I only see the biggest Marvel movies (Avengers, Spider-Mans) and mostly ignore the rest. I’ve either ignored or disliked most of thr DC movies post-Nolan Batmans too.
But this one was cool!
I didn't have a problem with it. Watched it on HBO so its not like we paid theater bucks to see it.
I loved it. Thought the pacing and story were excellent, and the acting was pretty good too. I saw it at the theater and at home, and with it being 3 hours long watching at home is a much better choice.
Much better than the garbage DC movies usually turn out to be.

Personally Im tired of the “superhero” movies.
Dr. Strange?
Ant Man?
Underdog?
Whats next?
The Ambiguously Gay Duo from SNL?
Just stop already
@"VikingOracle" said:Yep. I thought it MIGHT be good because they went to Batman's detective roots. He's named the world's greatest detective, some people don't realize that. Batman is best at his darkest. I also looked at the clock several times....not good.@"StickyBun" said: Meh. Had some expectations and it was very mediocre to unsatisfactory.

Loved that. A lot of stuff I wasn't aware of. The A&F doc is also good.

Also just watched 'The Girl in the Box'. Disturbing.
