And then there was that guy who stuck his head out the window and Bat-Man swooped in and snapped his neck with a swift kick.

I'm sorta impressed. Like I feel like this is the first time in ages that the full Hollywood apparatus, marketting at all, has produced a genuine, universally acknowledged, animated turd (pun intended) and pushed it to theatres with the full force of mass market machinery. Even crap like Angry Birds bottom out at about 40%.

Okay I went and watched Batman: Mask of the Phantasm for the first time because of the recent discussion in this thread and ehhhh it was okay I guess? Watching a long episode of the classic animated series with an actual film score behind it was probably the best part about it. The Godzilla fight with the Joker in the scale model of Gotham was also great but sadly quite short. The plot was way too predictable, they gave themselves away when they showed that Andrea could kick Bruce's rear end with judo right at the start. Edit: spoilered in case anyone else hadn't seen it and was thinking of watching it.

It's my understanding that MotP is by far the most popular animated Batman film, but I liked Under the Red Hood way more.

Das Boo posted:"Oh, a new character. There's your villain." I think they tried to work around that by introducing another new main character right at the start of the film as well. Also I noticed in the credits that the actor who played her father also did the modulated voice for the Phantasm which was a nice touch.

As average as the Batwoman movie was, I did appreciate the resolution to who she was. They introduced three women who could potentially be Batwoman. Which woman was she? All of them.

Patrick Stewart is amazing on American Dad. Say what you will about Seth MacFarlane's shows, but he is good about reviving careers of old TV dudes.

Still probably a better career decision than what I just learned today was Sean Connery's final film (not League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as I'd been led to believe):

The only amusing thing about it is the fact that Alan Cumming playing a gay goat who wears a black Game of Death tracksuit for some reason.

The only reason Sean Connery came out of retirement to do that movie was because it was like the first CG animated movie entirely produced in Scotland and dude's mad patriotic.

Fittingly enough, his last line in the film is an exasperated "oh the things I do for Scotland."

The great thing about Connery retiring is that I still see the "Sean Connery doesn't age" meme in the wild every now and then when most people last saw him in a movie almost 15 years ago and if you see what he looks like now he's a tiny shriveled grandpa who definitely looks his age.

What's the joke supposed to be? Like beyond the fact that it's in completely poor taste, what loving joke were they even going for. What kind of parallel could you even draw between those two works. It's not even a pun... I... why...
