Speckled Band was fine, Red Headed League was some bullshit.

I legit never knew that ACD was a gullible idiot. You'd think a celebrated, successful, good writer would have better perception or critical thinking skills.

Excellence in one area does not imply competency in general. One of the most important lessons one can learn in life.

It's frustrating because Nolan has the drive and means to make incredible set pieces. But his misguided auteurism constantly kneecaps his newer work. Tenet could've been an amazing bond alike if someone had had the ability to rein him in. Instead it's a barely audible mess of a movie. It all doesn't bother me so much except when he fucks with actual cinema, he had a self edited cut of 2001 that Leo Vitali basically had to apologize for allowing to be screened; Nolan's absolute hubris at assuming he is even worthy of so much as touching a frame of Kubrick's work is revolting.

His cameo at the end of The Batman was actually rear end though.

Is that the movie where Scarlet Johansson learns to use more than 10% of her mind, which enables her to like control gravity and poo poo?

Because that movie was fuckin duuuuuuumb

That's Lucy. Atomic Blonde is a mid spy action movie with a HEALTH cover of Blue Monday in the trailer.

In the Dark Knight Lucius refers to the batman tech as spying on 30 million people. So Gotham is 3 1/2 times bigger than New York City? They should have way more cops

I just googled New York Metro population and got 23.5 million. So not much a stretch.

ASM2 has a lot of problems but Foxx's character being a dork is not one of them. It's the closest we've come to that classic Burton style comic movie in awhile and the movie is better for it.
