Oh yeah definitely, I really did Elfman's score. The theme for Batman '89 is my favorite theme for any Batman related project.

I did too. I think she is quite good in that movie.

That line reading is the greatest thing.

It's absolutely bonkers but I kind of love how shamelessly its ripped from "Hizzoner the Penguin". That being said, aside from the production design and Keaton's performance I don't find much to love in either of the Burton Batman movies.

Yeah, I think its definitely an example of everyone taking the wrong lessons from what Nolan did. Like Miller's work on the character in the 80s, the films are brilliant in their own right but have lead to a lot more bad Batman stories than good ones.

I like Returns a lot more than I like '89 personally. I don't like either of them very much but I do kind of love how Returns just feels like Tim Burton directed an episode of the Adam West TV Series.

I really do not get why anyone liked Kevin Smith movies

It is impressive in its own way.

That series was so emotionally draining, and I say that as a neutral observer.

Originally if I remember correctly he simply created some of the personalities when his powers first manifested and then it was ret-conned that he is capable of absorbing powers and personalities. I'm not quite sure of the mechanics of how that worked.

And it's annoying because the only thing you can really do to get better at them is..more logic puzzles.

Yeah that is the most realistic thing about this situation tbh.

Class-ism is an easier explanation. Ridley has a very practiced RP accent, essentially like how hollywood wants us to think everyone in England talks, Boyega talks like a kid from Peckham.

All of us Bostonians look a like, huh? Fack you! You think you're bettah than me?

Yeah i hope it gets renewed. The story goes to really interesting places and it would be a shame if they didn't get to it.

They leaked online apparently. Probably damage control on SyFy's end

Same reason that Micronauts, the marvel Transformers books, Larry Hama's GI Joe run, and that awesome Godzilla comic where Godzilla gets shrunk to human size and wears a trench coat - Marvel is too cheep to pay for licensing

That might be the case. I honestly haven't read much of his work on the house marvel characters so I can't say but I feel like ROM and Micronauts are good enough to put him on the list. Its a shame that they are both impossible to reprint

Him and Hama worked magic with properties that should have been shit. Mantlo has to be one of the most underrated comic creators in history.

ROM is really only notable for the 70ish issue run it had at Marvel which is so much better than it has any right to be. It's one of the great lost treasures in Marvel's backlog that most people never get to read because it can never be reprinted. I only was able to read it because my dad still had the whole run in
