TV/Movies Megathread

[Ed Anger]

I'm the goddamn Batman

[CountDeMoney]

The one with nipples.

Never rub another man's rhubarb.

Run all Night- Liam Neeson being a bad ass again.

[The Brain]

I really liked the part where Bruce Wayne has a ten billion dollar constellation of spy satellites run by an AI that he invented, and which he launched in secret with no help and without anyone knowing.

You know he has superpowers, right?

Celery, have you ever seen Hoosiers?

Just watched it again for the 20th time and it still makes me blubber from start to finish.

Yes, I have. I grew up in a basketball-crazy town and when this came out it became an instant local hit. They used to play it in bits during breaks of basketball practice. The film is the quintessential underdog sports story, but it has character, mainly Hackman's.

Amazon just delivered "Imitation Game". So gonna watch tonight or tomorrow.

[Martinus]

Cant wait.

Now that I think about Hoosiers a little, isn't it subtly racist? I mean, they are an all-white school from an all-white midwestern town that defeats a more athletic integrated team in the finals.

No, it isn't subtly racist.

[Martinus]

Is it non-subtly racist?

Just finished, Justice League: Throne of Atlantis

The spotlight is on Aquaman here. The art remains great, as does the fight scenes which are absolutely brutal. The action to dialogue ratio here is much more even than in Justice League War. This should make this a much better movie than the last one, however all the extra dialogue just highlights the fact that the League really is mostly made up of super jerks. Aquaman is a drunk trying to work through his grief by beating up bar patrons while Hal continues to be the reckless douche we all love to hate. Thankfully Batman and the Big Bad of this story are hard at work acting as audience surrogates and smacking him down. The magic trident that Aquaman's half brother wields is ridiculously OP.

[Eddie Teach]

In the Loop. Very amusing.
