Did anyone else watch the Penguin on HBO? As much as I'm ready for a more light-hearted take on the Dark Knight, Matt Reeves' Batman universe is very compelling. The Penguin had an amazing cast, and they told a great mob story set in Gotham. I'm excited to see how the story continues.
pickReread. It's been a while since I've read Scott Snyder's Batman, but this comic is still amazing. While he would still play in the DC sandbox with Dark Nights, Last Knight is a proper conclusion to Snyder's iconic Batman run. The world has gone to hell, but that's not going to stop Batman from finding the truth, making a plan, and inspiring others to fight one more time.
Maybe, someday, you‘ll come to trust that.
Until then…
Someday…

so-soHated it. Knew I'd hate it. At least we can tick this one off the list.
If you like the idea of a nightmarish, Bat-adjacent dream sequence with some violence thrown in, this could be the high concept horror novella for you.
If, however, you prefer substance and plot to vibes, and don't like migraine-inducing visuals, give this one a miss.
Need some Adam West Batman to recover now.

so-so100/150 I don't know if its caused by the constraints of the video game, but this is a very plodding Batman story. The identity of the Arkham Knight is pretty obvious, and the subplot of Batman fighting against the Joker's blood in his system was a total parallel to the later DC plotline, The Batman Who Laughed. If you love all things Batman, you might want to give it a try, otherwise I'd skip it. 3 ⭐⭐⭐

An oldie movie but I loved it, specially that scene of him inside the cave facing his fears. Great scene. Well, I need to watch it again😃
so-soWhile this Elseworlds has a similar feel to Gotham by Gaslight, it's set about 20 years later in 1907, and isn't related to that earlier story. This one has the huge draw for me of featuring Harry Houdini, and then the huge negative of Chaykin using racial slurs and misogyny in a way that comes across as "naughty boy saying naughty words" rather than as (unnecessary) historical accuracy. It's a disappointment, as is the plot that shoehorns in a ⬇️
@Liatrek @Jacqmac I've been following Milioti since she opened the Broadway show Once. I'm so glad she was cast in this and crushed it! Honestly, everyone on screen crushed it 3d
