BATMAN & Harley!! Review (A few spoilers)



By Corey Floyd

har.jpg

While the DCEU is trying to get their act together their animated movies have always been a hit. They have been dark, violent, gritty film series. Recently they lightened up with an old school Batman & Robin DVD featuring the Adam West. Then I saw a trailer for Batman and Harley.

I got very excited the animation style was a homage to the Batman: Animated series which is also celebrating it’s 25th Anniversary this year. Wasn’t sure if this was gonna be a serious romp or not but I was ready nonetheless. Also, everyone loves Harley we can’t get enough of her. So why not do a feature where she works with the dark knight in her own special way  

The movie Villians Poison Ivy & Floronic Man (Walmart brand Swamp Thing) trying to turn the entire world inhabitants into a plant Hybrid. Batman and Nightwing are on the case and realize they will need Harley’s help since they are longtime friends and a formidable team when they worked together.

This feature had its fair share of meta jokes. Nightwing finds Harley working at a restaurant where the female servers are dressed as scantily clad villains and heroes and

of course she dresses as …………………..herself.

 There was also a great fight scene between her and Nightwing which she won. What followed was what I can only describe as a 50shades of Harley between her and Nightwing.  
Despite some very adult scenes here and there, this was a fun cartoon. It also had a great scene that played back to some Golden and Silver age villains at a bar where Harley graced us with a musical number. There also a message about climate change and taking care of the environment. To be honest I felt like Bernie Sanders was about to show up.   Related image Kevin Conroy returned as the voice of the bat and Loren Lester as Nightwing / Robin. We had a different Harley this time Melissa Rauch played her voice. Which fits perfectly since she is Bernadette on THE BIG BANG THEORY  here’s a sample https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyAkev_nv0A . It was an awkwardly funny movie. It felt more like one of those serious/funny
episodes from their last season.

Was it odd? Yes. Was it funny? Yes. Will I watch it again? Hell YES!! make sure you go out and grab your copy for your collection. I have to give this movie an A. It gave me something new from the material that I already know about. It was also very funny which was unexpected also the after credit scene I was done. Here a clue: WIPEOUT

Defenders!! Will it be good




If you have Netflix you notice that their home screen you notice the countdown to the Defenders. The early reviews are literally 50/50. I have a few expectations and things I think we need to see for this to be a hit. The following will contain spoilers if you have not seen Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist. !!!SPOILER ALERT!!! You have been warned.

What Happened to Ku’n Lun? At the end of Iron Fist, we find him and Colleen returning to Ku’n Lun. When they arrive they see that the gate to the city has been closed and there are several dead bodies along the path which consists of monks and members of THE HAND. If the gate to the city is closed that means that he will be on his own since according to the show it only opens every 15 years. I assume he will be an emotional wreck through half of the defenders because of this. How will he finish his training?

What is Madame Gao? At first, she just seemed like a savage crime boss when I first saw her Daredevil. But then she did this^^. In Iron Fist it’s revealed that she’s hundreds of years old. What her ultimate move, big plans? Since she has been seen in Daredevil too hopefully she plays an interesting part in the Defenders.  

Sigourney Weaver is in the MCU!!! If you don’t know who this woman is. She is the OG (original gangster) when it comes to leading ladies kicking ass. It's pretty awesome to see her in a Marvel production especially as a villain from what I see in the trailers. I did look at the IMDB and her character is name Alexandria. I have no idea who that is. If you do let me know. Doesn’t seem like they are giving away too much about the character. 

How did Luke cage get released? At the end of his first season Mariah and Shades won. There was no way they were giving up that evidence to free him? Maybe Claire and Murdock found a loophole, or maybe the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen got to them. 

Can we get some good fight choreography from Iron Fist please?! Other than the really crappy plot of his first season what made it unbearable to watch was Finn Jones obvious lack of martial arts training and thanks to stuntman Mohamed J Ali interview ( which you can see here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6D77_Sm4eI ) he gave away the fact that they rushed his production. When you have someone with no martial arts background plus no time for teach choreography you get crap. KaijYT from youtube did a comparison video between Daredevil and Iron Fist and from what I see if Iron fist is gonna survive they might have to recast him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Psc-WPMorJ4 . Are you ready for THE DEFENDERS ?!! There will be a review next week in the meantime I’m going to watch Luke Cage again.
