    Birds of Prey wasn’t a bad comic book movie, especially if we’re comparing it to movies like Morbius in which case Birds of Prey is top tier fantastic.

    Why Birds of Prey and not Suicide Squad (2016)? Could also include Madame Web.

      I think this is for movies that were released alongside sonic movies. Suicide Squad would only make sense if the first sonic movie came out in 2016

      I don’t know if I had too low of an expectation, but Madame Web was better than I thought. Doesn’t make it a good movie by any stretch, but I really enjoyed the middle section of it. The opening and ending is really terrible, though.

        Yes, Forever is the good Schumacher Batman movie. Thank you for proving my point. :)

        No, I’m not trolling you. How different is Carrey’s performance as The Riddler to his performance as Robotnik?

          Carrey was great. He carried that movie though. Rest of it was eh.

            What?! Are we thinking of the same movie where batman kills a dude via coins? It’s great. Terrible Batman movie but great.

            I’ve had it suggested that the Schumacher films should be treated as in universe films where Batman already existed for real, everyone knows about him and are stylizing it further. And it does help make it fun again.

        Strangely enough this movie goes so incredibly far into ridiculous it’s actually fun to watch.
