Hump Day & Chill

Homicidal Tendencies 
Paul Dano 
as
The Riddler

Like many of you out there I am still reeling over The Batman. What an amazing piece of filmmaking! Unlike many of you I have not seen the film twice or even five times. Honestly Minions it's three hours long how you have found the time to do that is well beyond my comprehension. This being stated I definitely do want another go at it as I am 100% certain it will get even better on a second viewing.

While there are many things about it that rent space in my head daily, today we are going to Hump Day & Chill to Paul Dano as The Riddler. Never has there ever been a more terrifying depiction of this villain in a Batman movie. In fact his first appearance on screen in the film is straight outta a horror movie.

Did you know Matt Reeves modeled his Riddler after the infamous Zodiac Killer who terrorized CA in the 1960's? Well now you do, and it shows in how genuinely creepy Dano is in the role.

So a big Hump Day & Chill salute to Paul Dano, who haunts our collective nightmares. OK, time for me to get to that second go of The Batman...Ciao!

Hump Day & Chill

The Batman
Robert Pattinson

I have a tale to tell, March 6th 2022. The Place: Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, CA The time: 10:20 ayem. What happened: I saw The Batman.

So this means I am gonna Hump Day & Chill myself to Robert Pattinson as The Batman.

Honestly I never really paid Pattinson much mind. Especially with those Twilight movies (cough, cough) 

But then something truly miraculous happened, Bobby as those of us familiar with him refer to him as. Grew into who he was as a grown ass man. Well now Pattison, why don't you come up and see me sometime...

The Batman blew my mind and in no small part due to my newest man crush Robert Pattinson. "Yes" little Robert is now big Robert and it's real, not to mention spectacular!

Wanna join me in a Hump Day & Chill to Bobby? I think I know THAT answer...

I am vengeance, or riddle me this, that and something else!

Something In The Way...

Grauman's Chinese Theater

Yesterday I went and saw The Batman at the historic Chinese Theater in Hollywood, IMAX style. 

Batman is my jam and IMO this was the best Batman movie ever! Robert Pattinson is the best movie Batman ever! 

There I said it. Now on to the important stuff. While I have been to movies in a theater last year etc. I really wasn't prepared for how emotional I got being in the iconic Chinese again. 

From the hand prints in the cement, to the amazing architecture inside. You can feel the history of this shrine to movie going leap into your soul.

A little bit dramatic? Not really, accurate to my feelings, it is. 

I mean I even took this photo of Marilyn Monroe's hand and foot prints (yes I had seen them before) I was feeling so nostalgic. 

Sally Forth and smile like you mean it, it's Monday!!!

Hump Day & Chill

Meow
Zoe Kravitz

I have a Hump Day & Chill confession to make. While I do not see many comic book based movies (I've never seen an Avengers film and don't plan to either) I do see certain ones. Of those "certain ones" I will see anything Batman.

"Yes" Batman was my jam in my formative years. Thus I consume all movies featuring him, there you have that!

Needless, or needful to say, depending on your POV I am looking forward (never back) to The Batman. Other than the obvious draw of Robert Pattinson playing the title character there is Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman.

Today we Hump Day & Chill to Zoe as the Cat. I love Ms. Kravitz, not only is she strikingly beautiful she is a quite talented actress. If you didn't see Big Little Lies (1 & 2) then I suggest you do. 

So F#ck the Bat and bring on the Cat! All hail the queen of Hump Day & Chill Zoe Kravitz!

Purrrrrrfect! Zoe Kravitz

Bring on the Cat!
Zoe Kravitz
Batman was my jam when I was a kid. From the campy TV Series to the darkest of the Dark Knight comic books. Then came the movies from the first two Tim Burton ones to the silly, campy Joel Schumacher affairs. While I didn't like them all I soldiered on like a trooper and went, for the love of Batman.

Then came the best, the Christopher Nolan trilogy. Well here comes a new incarnation The Batman slated for a 2021 release Directed by Matt Reeves. It will star Robert Pattinson as Batman, which I am sure will work. However there is a bit of casting news I am more excited about. Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman!

Zoe is an amazingly beautiful (Hello? Here parents are Lisa Bonet & Lenny Kravitz) not to mention talented young woman. She most notably has starred in the HBO series Big Little Lies where she held her own against the likes of Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Laura Dern, Reese Witherspoon and Shailene Woodley.

Michelle Pfeiffer has been my favorite Catwoman in the movies thus far. That being stated I have a feeling Ms. Kravitz is going to bring her own magic to the role, and make it something uniquely hers. Can you tell I am a Zoe fan? "Yes" you can!
