Deadpool and Wolverine
Deadpool and Wolverine has been a highly anticipated film for nerds everywhere for quite some time now. I myself was extremely excited to see this movie. The first two Deadpool movies are hilarious but they are also narratively good stories with strong emotional cores. So imagine my surprise when I finally saw Deadpool and Wolverine and it was not good. Sorry nerds I know this might get me kicked out of the club but the film was underwhelming at best and disappointing at realistic.

Caped Crusader
Okay…so again, as someone who has absolutely no interest in Batman but very much interest in everyone else in Gotham City we are binging our way through Caped Crusader, Prime Video’s newest animated series. So far we have been introduced to many of the major players in Gotham City including; Montoya, The Penguin, and Barbara Gordon. I am hoping that we are going to get some more of the Batfamily as this series goes on. This will be going over episodes 3 and 4. There will be 10 episodes in this first season and I really kind of already want another season.

Caped Crusader
Yet another Batman cartoon has been released. Prime Video dropped Caped Crusader on August 1st. This first season is 10 episodes long and they dropped the entire season at once. Produced by Bruce Timm, J.J. Abrams, Matt Reeves, Daniel Pipskim and Ed Brubaker. Caped Crusader’s animation is very similar to the Animated Series style of animation, and the show starts us right in the middle of the action. We also seem to be getting a Batman costume more reminiscent of Detective Comics Batman and I love that. It’s like the only thing that hasn’t been done in Batman animation, ya know since he has 1000 animated series and Wonder Woman doesn’t have any…but I digress. So as someone who has absolutely no interest in Batman let’s watch the newest animated series.
