Unpopular film opinions
Dark Knight Rises was a letdown If you can't tell by my multiple articles about the DC universe I am a huge fan of DC. I actually did love Batman Begins and Dark Knight, however Dark Knight Rises was a huge let down. First off, the sheer amount of time Batman spends mopping about Rachel and now Talia is unbearable. I genuinely skip those parts of the film. All the crying over his failed relationships reinforces the Bruce Wayne is a crybaby stereotype. And even though this was the last film of the trilogy, I always hate when Hollywood tries to have drastic time jumps in their character's arcs. I also know Bruce had taken a step back after the Dent death and his time crime fighting has taken its toll but come on. I just, I don't like it. It feels to clean cut 3 arc story of beginning, middle, end. Lastly, Joseph Gordon Leavitt's "Robin". I have no problems with JGL's performance. But the immense disservice to Robin, wow. What an amazing way to end your trilogy, by not giving the fans what they want.

Fallout with terminators
My love for the Terminator franchise I absolutely LOVE, the terminator franchise. I can honestly watch the first two terminator films over and over again and not get bored. There's just something about the story that not only leaves an endless opportunity for great story telling, but the evolution of terminators is always fun to see. I especially love to see all the creative ways the resistance defeats said terminators.

Some of the worst films I've ever seen
Let me clarify what I mean by bad films. There are films that are bad, but they're watchable because you can appreciate the effort that was put into the film and sense the potential of the film. The very first Terminator 3 film "Terminator Rise of the Machines" comes to mind. That's not what I'm talking about. Also I'm not going to be discussing films like "The room", where it's so bad it's good. Plus I'd never disrespect the legend that is Tommy Wiseau, that absolute lunatic. Lastly I won't be including films whose soul purpose is to be shocking or controversial because they're not even trying, they're just using film as a medium to be controversial. What I'll be talking about are movies that from top to bottom are atrocious despite their best efforts. Script, acting, directing, pacing, if they managed to miss all of these points they'll be somewhere here on this list. I'm also not going to give these films the honor of having their pictures on this article. That is how much I hate these films.

My favorite movie muscle cars
Let me just start off by saying I am in no way shape or form a gearhead. Please don't chew me out for it. However: I do love movies, I do love cars and I'd love to learn more about cars. I don't know too much about the specs of these cars outside of the cylinders and the horsepower. Just a heads up. so sorry in advance. I just know that this cars are beasts and if I ever hit the lottery best believe I'm snatching up every last one of these cars and never letting them go.

Bring back Starkiller!
As elated as I am to have Ahsoka Tano finally making her live action appearance in "The Mandalorian" and she'll be getting her own stand alone show. I got to thinking about another one of Anakin's apprentice, well technically he was Darth Vader's apprentice but same difference. Galen Marek aka Starkiller, let's talk about why he needs to be reintroduced.

Clippers 2020-2021 predictions
The 2019-2020 "bubble season" was probably singlehandedly the most disappointed I've ever been as a Clippers fan. Thank the heavens that season is finally behind us and Doc Rivers is no longer our head coach. The bubble honestly should've been our greatest advantage but it turned out to be our greatest nightmare. I honestly still don't know how we ruined that golden opportunity for our team specifically. However, that's behind us now let's look ahead.

Nightwing
The boy wonder, Robin, Nightwing, agent 37. These are just a few of the Aliases of Richard John Grayson, better known as Dick Grayson. I've always found it funny over the years explaining the backstory of Dick Grayson and people not knowing that Dick was Bruce's son. Everybody knows that Bruce Wayne is Batman, but Robin's real name is... It's as if Robin doesn't have a secret identity, or funnier still when I tell them that the Robin mantle has been held by multiple people it's this huge shocker. I've never understood that. Granted Dick has had only three live action portrayals; those being Burt Ward, Chris O'Donnell, and Brenton Thwaites in that order. Dick has had some his fair share of public exposure, innuendo completely intended. But all jokes aside it's not like he's a very obscure character who hasn't been in circulation for decades. Nightwing is still getting new stories to this day. So why don't more people know the name Dick Grayson. Allow me to explain why you should learn his name.

Save one
I recently re-watched 2017's "Justice League" in preparation for the "Synder Cut" to come. As much as I would love to make this article entirely trashing this film, I won't. I'm about three years late for that. However, I felt like there's one interaction that I feel is incredibly overlooked and showed me that this movie does actually have some potential. That sentence really pains me to say as some who absolutely loves the DC universe.
