Lameazoid Link List for Saturday 2024-05-11

Charlie’s Angels, 2019 – ★★★

I mean, it's goofy and intended to be that way, like the last two movies. And it's generally more ceherent in terms of overall plot than the last two movies, aside from not really explaining why it was a good idea to give Alexa killing powers.

Juliet, Naked, 2018 – ★★★½ (contains spoilers)

This review may contain spoilers.

An alright rom com film.

But the real amusing story here is the underlying plot about obsessive fandoms. Dude does not even recognize the rockstar he has a literal shrine to. And he basically has all the facts wrong about his obsession based on fandom speculation and assuming it's fact.

It feels like the true purpose of this film is criticizing celebrity worship a bit.

The Batman, 2022 – ★★★★

I really enjoy this Batman take a lot. It definitely feels "inspired" by the Nolan Batman, which helps, but also, he is just so much more down to Earth.

Especially after coming off Batfleck, where Batman is literally fighting God Tier Superman. This Batman gets injured and doesn't always have the perfect gadget for every obscure moment handy. He feels very much like he is just a dude in a leather outfit.

Also, the story really gets that Batman, is Batman, Bruce Wayne is essentially the secret identity alter ego. Batman, is Batman first.
