Shame on you. Frank Gorshin’s Riddler should be in the top 5. Everyone remembers Cesar Romero’s Joker (and he was great), but Gorshin’s Riddler was such over the top fun. Every scene he just went for it. He must have to take a nap between shooting scenes.

I liked it a lot and I thought there were some smart things in the film. I liked how Reeves used the red lighting to indicate Batman’s “vengeance” mindset and there was a good payoff towards the end with that device when you see the red light toggle back and forth signifying that Batman’s raison d’etre goes from

And sad Farrell is a glorified cameo, he’s always great and looked like he’d be having more fun than Dano.

I saw it this evening - very early in the movie, someone says “fuck” and I thought, wait is this actually R rated? Or did they just randomly throw in their one use of “fuck” right out of the gate?

I’m here for the Bat-puns and was not disappointed 

The comic is written in a way that is perfect for adaption. I never understand why they change beloved storylines like this. Locke and Key, DMZ, Preacher (though they bumped it up after the first season to make it worthy), Y The Last Man, etc.

Hmm. I read the entire series and I’m trying to figure out which character Rosario Dawson is playing. I guess they chose to stay away from the reporter character Matty(?)

The actor playing Jet nailed it so hard though! Amazing.

Same. I have no interest in anime but that show really scratched that Firefly itch of quirky weirdos scraping by in a grungy future setting.

This news reminds me we don’t have Darwyn Cooke around any more to make more comic adaptations of the Parker books and it makes me a little sad.

“Gluten for punishment” makes me laugh. Suck it up, toasty!

I’ve seen every Batman movie in the theaters because - god help me I’m a Batman fan and a gluten for punishment. I was on the fence to going to see this one in the theater because my go to movie theater was the ArcLight and is no longer in business. That means in my area, AMC is just about the only game in town.

Thanks, I look for you at those other sites!

so...where is the next AV Club type of review site going to be? I’m an old not on social media, so I’m always the last to know.

I’m in.

I hope the new Killing Joke is good. I’ll probably pick up the new Sonic Youth too - sucks they broke up.

I’m a bit blown away with how good this album is compared to how bad or simply mediocre it could have been, just given the common turnout for these types of latter-career works.

Speaking of wings, this article put hot wings in the front of my mind and I finally found chicken wings in the supermarket this weekend (seems like there are long periods of time now that the market does not have them) and made a plate full of crispy oven baked wings. Both drumettes and flats were delicious. The

Awww, you found the right one! Like they say, “there’s a lid for every pot”. :)

My god, how old are those people now? Or maybe its like the Harlem Globetrotters and they constantly get new people.
