Meanwhile... Mr. Fixit, Illegal Machine, & Diabolu Frank ask, "...and where is The Batman?" While we couldn't omit all references to Nolan or Snyder, we more or less stick to the movie at hand, and keep the talk down to about a third of the, let's be honest, unreasonably long running time of the film. How do Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Jeffrey Wright, Colin Farrell, and Paul Dano stack up in these iconic roles? Somehow, Andy Serkis' Michael Caine impression doesn't come up. Not much in the way of hot takes, with a disproportionate focus on director Matt Reeves, grunge appropriation and... tattoos?

Cards on the table, we all liked both versions of Justice League, but that won't stop the shade or temper the sizzling hot takes. Equal opportunity offense is our stock-in-trade, and business is good. Both sides can eat a big fat di--rector's (un)cut. #Justice4SilasStone
