Batman VS Superman
Non-spoiler review in brief. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate Batman V Superman, either. There were pieces of a good movie that never seemed to come together to become anything more. It also felt like it should have been a couple of films. There are too many plot threads to form a consistent theme, or point to the story. I liked Ben Affleck as Batman. I think his performance as Batman was actually better than Christian Bale. It is just Christian Bale was paired with a better film maker. This Batman is much more Frank Miller inspired, but back when he was still good Frank Miller, and hadn’t…

More Comics Shows Round Up
So, Gotham….This was the episode I was waiting for since the beginning of this series. Seriously, this was why you set a show in Gotham. Not for Batman, or the Joker, or all the freaks. You set a story in Gotham because it is a crucible that makes those kind of people.

She is amazing in this. In the bar scene and the music playing, they played scenes of Jerome on the wall…

Comic Book show weekly round up.
Lucifer was a solid episode. The story around the divine elements were the focus and the murder mystery was the background mystery this time. I sort of saw through the overall plot in last episode, but the execution was well done, so I don’t mind the telegraphing. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D are back. It was a solid if not a really inspired episode. I would like it to shake things up and make interesting choices. Instead, it seems to be drifting on the formula it has. Not a bad formula, but I am not as excited by it. Gotham was okay. Didn’t blow me away, and it had some nice bits,…
