I just finished watching the new cut of Justice League that came out yesterday. It’s very long, 4 hours in fact. Movies cut a lot of footage before it becomes what we see in the final release. They shoot a lot of scenes that get tweaked, trimmed or eliminated altogether to make for a more…

I fell behind on my rewatch so I’m going to do a quick round up of a few movies that I am not going to rewatch right now (if at all). In order of release: Suicide Squad: This movie is a train wreck. It really is, I know it was a mess behind the scenes…

I’m writing this having not seen the Snyder Cut just yet as I wanted to refresh my memory to do a comparison between the two after. This one was a bit odd for me to rewatch because I ended up changing my stance a bit. On the previous three recaps I went in and came…

Quick note: theatrical cut, not extended. So it’s time, I know from experience that this will be my most controversial opinion piece I share on probably anything. Please remember it’s just a movie and please, seriously please, don’t quote the Martha scene at me. In my Man of Steel review I mainly just gave my…

With the new cut of the Justice League film being release in a few weeks on the 18th I decided to rewatch some of the DC films leading up to it. I’m going to put these up on my site as it allows me to be a bit more freeform than for example if I…
