    I'll have to do that on the second watch.

    I also had a few minor complaints with Catwoman; I felt the character could've been fleshed out a little more, similar to how we got a nice backstory with Bane and Natalyia (Miranda). Outside of her pulling a few burglaries, we don't know much about Selena Kyle. How'd she get so good at hand-to-hand combat?

    JGL was great as Blake and Oldman was his usual awesomeness as Gordon. The Matthew Modine spotting (Vision Quest, ftw!) was pretty cool, too, as I had no idea he was in the film.

    Visually, this was outstanding, especially on Blu-Ray. Everything seemed to just pop off of the screen and I thought the Bane-Batman scenes were a high point.

    I also want to give a nod to the music. I thought this film was scored very well and created the right amount of drama, tension and fear throughout. Just very well done and easy to listen to.

      Trouble With The Curve

      I liked it, thought Amy Adams and Clint Eastwood were pretty good in this one.

        Pitch Perfect. Didn't know what to expect going in but it was pretty entertaining. Reminded me of Mean Girls a little bit.

          That's My Boy

          I liked it, but I will say that I like anything with Adam Sandler in it. I thought it was pretty funny.

            I usually enjoy anything Adam Sandler does but this movie was garbage.

            The Amazing Spiderman
            Was not impressed with this reboot. Always like looking at Emma Stone but Andrew Garfield who played Spiderman was just silly when in the suit I thought.

            Prometheus
            There were some points in this one that I didn't quite understand but for the most part I enjoyed this movie from beginning to end.

              Do you mean physically?

              This version of Spider-Man/Peter Parker is only in high school, so it's not like he's supposed to be all muscular.

                I'm pretty sure Maguire's Spider-Man was in High School as well, to start.

                  Sure, for like the first half hour of that movie. And they made a point of the spider bite completely altering his body type and the ability to shoot webbing out of his body, which this version of the story didn't do (and correctly so in regards to the web shooting).

                  Plus, more often than not in the comics Spider-Man has more of a slim, athletic build.

                    No I'm referring to his cocky attitude when in the suit. Like the scene where the guy pulls the knife on him, I just thought it was silly.
                    The only scene I really enjoyed was when he was down in the sewers and did the huge web and just waited on The Lizard, thought that was cool.

                      Really? I thought that was one of the biggest/best improvements of this one...they made Spider-Man as cocky and *******-ish as he actually is.

                        You're correct but Garfield just didn't pull it off in my opinion.

                          Lawless - Pretty good. Tom Hardy is becoming one of my favorite actors.

                            I didn't expect much from it, so at least it exceeded my expectations. I would be lying if I said my only intrigue from this film was the PNC Park, my major turn-off from it was Taylor Lautner. I'd say that it passed time well, but it was a B-rated story and pretty poor acting all around.

                            At least Netflix came through, in that it was better than paying for it I suppose.

                              Priest 3D. It got bad reviews, but I enjoyed it for what is was: mindless vampire hunting. Thought the 3D was good during the daytime scenes.
