I really liked that they showed Batman doing some actual detective stuff for once, the problem was just that the movie had a really good ending and then it went on for another 30 minutes.

Re Hard Target - the reason this is good is because it's not a JCVD movie, it's a John Woo movie that JCVD somehow stumbled into.

YOU DON'T SAY
but seriously man, the slow-mo spinning kicks make this one tenth of a Van Damme movie!

(Youtube doc on The Evil Within)

i've seen balthazar getty a few times in bars down here with weird people around him. the whole story of that family is pretty incredible

Wait, holy shit - the kidnapped guy was Balthazar's dad? Fucking hell.

i forget how he's related exactly but yeah he's a member of that family. he's very briefly in the video that was posted and it reminded me that i'd seen him around a couple times. i have a hot headed friend who got into an extremely minor and very gay ego-scuffle with him trying to order drinks on top of one another at a crowded spot

The Batman ('22) - 6.5/10 - Pretty conflicted on this flick... I agree with Spacehamster that it was good to see the detective put back in Detective Comics. I like Pattinson in general and think he did a pretty good job, but I didn't need the extended shots of him just staring at people and being melancholic all the time. I really liked the Batmobile that felt like a throwback to the OG show mixed with an early 70s muscle car. Unfortunately, Gordon and Alfred felt miscast - and I like both Wright and Serkis usually. Overall, it felt tonally confused for some reason and I lost interest around 2.5 hours in. I'm going to give it another shot this weekend to see if maybe I wasn't in the right mood - but I might be burnt out on superhero flicks in general.

Spider-Man 3 - 4
The Amazing Spider-Man - 6.5
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 - 4.5

Spider-Man: Homecoming - 7

The batman - 9.5/10. God damn

when it comes to The Batman, I'm more of a hunter than a vern

but not not a james

let's unleash the spoilers, y'all? tiny font has not failed us yet

The ending was fucking idiotic but that's okay

Oh no the guys from the chat room are shooting everyone in the superdome

Batman Does Nothing To Prevent 9/11 Katrina

Seriously he accomplished nothing

Same with Wayne death being mob related... for 5 minutes, immediately clarified with no impact on anything.

Spider-Man: Far From Home - 6

That and the main score took off those .5 points from being a ten

every batman movie ever should use elfman’s score

yeah james batman had almost zero impact on anything was that also true of bond in quantum of solace? I know there are some famous examples of this…

Run Ronnie run - 8/10. haven't seen this since it came out and remember it being pretty weak but I Def enjoyed it this time. I still wish they got to release their cut

The Bride With White Hair - 7.5/10
I think it's the best Wuxia film I've ever seen. Peter Pau delivers great visuals, the costumes are interesting, there's a surprising amount of gore, Brigitte Lin's stare is intoxicating, and Leslie Cheung is wonderful as usual. The story is a variation of Romeo & Juliet and it works pretty well.

Because it’s a thing from The Long Dark Halloween graphic novel and they wanted to shoehorn stuffs from that.

Untold: Crime and Penalties - 7
Lady Snowblood - 7
Bicycle Thieves - 9

The wicker man ('75) - 8.5/10

Really? I remembered the Wayne/mob thing being from TLH but not a Catwoman connection at all. I only read that shit once though, like 17 years ago...

Tim Sale's art is a serious contender for GOAT (Darwyn Cooke beats him out for me)

Black Panther - 8

The Batman - 7/10 (sorry if I rated this twice!)

Ant Man - 6.5/10

Eternals - 5.5/10

Shang Chi - 7/10

Black Widow - 4.5/10

Dr Strange: Multiverse of Madness - 7.5
I can’t believe how Raimi and how horror this was!

I also watched wandavision & loki and I hate myself!

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - 7.5

I was won over when whatshisface exploded the inside of his own head.

The Conjuring - 3.5
