the third one was pretty dumb. towards the end, while trying to save gotham from anarchy, mr. batman found time all by himself to set up a giant pyrotechnic bat signal display on the side of a skyscraper

this was less insane to me than him getting out of the prison and back to Gotham with no money or ID only to find all his gear completely unmolested. like, why wouldn't Bane or Talia go wreck up his poo poo, or better yet use it for their own purposes

he probably used some secret waynetech pocket flamethrower meant for signaling CIA agents in south vietnam. it was left in applied sciences because it has a tendency to burn whole villages down

My favorite part of batman begins is the scene where Alfred explains to Bruce that his great grandfather was part of the underground railroad and rescued slaves. Like a rich person wouldn't own slaves, and be the first person to turn them in.

“It is a drawing of the letter S,” said the deep, solemn voice from over her shoulder, and she realized she had stopped midstride. “The letter in question is constructed from six short marks stacked vertically three by three. There are two triangles on the top and bottom, which, along with some diagonal strokes, form a calligraphic S.”

Moore, Ennis, Gaiman, and co were the best and worst thing to happen to comics in the 90s.

The Sandman is the only comic I've managed to read more than a couple of pages of. I actually enjoyed the art and the weird comic book dialogue wasn't quite as off-putting as normal

I haven't watched many MCU movies (Howard The Duck and the Dr. Magic one plus the one where Spiderman is a jerk and dances and the 1 or 2 Spidersman before that) but goddamn is the CGI sterile.

Like, watch Clockwork Orange: when Alex is kicking the bum you loving feel the ribs cracking. But none of the action feels real in any of the movies BVMW watches because it's not only obviously false but that this falseness is actively used by the director transparently.

Like it's some sort of horrible twisting of the verfremdungseffekt where it's instead being used to exculpate the viewer from the moral responsibility of the violence they watch?

yeah maybe pg is the wrong description for the US. In the UK pg is basically anything under the age of 12 if the parent is happy with it. Like I think you can say poo poo once and imply sex or something. James bond was always a pg I think.

I think the fifth element was a pg on release as well which was a bit lol because that had boobs in it
