‘BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN PART ONE’ …IT’S GOOD

DC ANIMATION’S The Long Halloween Part 1 is a stylish tale that looks like an homage to ‘The Godfather’.  And it’s good!  I never read the comic book it is based on, so I can’t speak to how closely they followed the source material.  But the movie looks great, and the voice talent is spot on.

The only two negatives I have are: 1) The film’s pacing is a little slow for a superhero movie.  Though does fit the detective noir genre they’re emulating. And 2) It’s part one of a two part story, so there’s no real resolution, which is frustrating.

MY 1st Impression:  Batman: The Long Halloween Part One is well-worth the cost of the Blu-Ray, or the digital download.   And stay tuned in until until the bitter end, Because there is an End-Credit scene.

‘During the holidays, a brutal series of murders strike fear into the city of Gotham. Batman sets out to pursue the serial killer with the support of police officer James Gordon and district attorney Harvey Dent.’

 

SHAZAM 2! – THE NEW SHAZAM FAMILY REVEALED

Unlike the director of The Flash Film, director David F. Sandberg has taken destiny into his own hands. Instead of having his superheroes debut in bad paparazzi shots, like the new Supergirl did. Sandberg shows us the ‘official’  first look at the suits from ‘Shazam! Fury Of The Gods‘ the right way.

 

THE FLASH FILM: WHO IS THE ‘NEW’ SUPERGIRL?

SPOILER IMAGE BELOW…

 

DCU: Who is the New Supergirl?  The new Flash film doesn’t seem to be using the blonde Kara Zor-el, from the CW series.  So is the film using the comic book character Cir-el? And if so, who is that?

Introduced in DC Comics over a decade ago, Cir-el is from the future, and she’s the daughter of Superman/Clark Kent & Lois. Her secret identity name is Lara Lane Kent.   But comics are fickle things.  Because currently, in the comics, Superman & Lois have a son named Jonathan and no daughter.  And in the CW Series, ‘Superman & Lois’, the couple have twin sons, and no daughter.

So, who is this new Supergirl?  Well we probably won’t know for sure until they decide to tell us. But a behind-the-scenes image of the actress, Sasha Calle, makes me think Cir-el.  But if that’s true, then will we see Superman in the film as well? After all, in the Snyder cut of Justice League, Zack Snyder confirmed that Lois is pregnant.

 

HBO MAX: ‘TITANS’ SEASON 3 TEASER… FINALLY!

HBO MAX: After about a year with nothing, thanks to the pandemic, we finally get a peek at the 3rd season of Titans.  AND, they give us a glimpse of the Red Hood storyline! It’s only a teaser, so it’s very short.  But I’m pretty excited to see the show now that it’s on HBO MAX.  A bigger budget perhaps?
