It was another gloomy day at Gotham, in Wayne mansion, dick was still trying to cope with loneness, but how can he when everyday he goes home in a empty house with no one to talk to, he missed it was just him Bruce and Barbara. Before she was chosen and now he has to spend the rest of his days home alone.
Bruce: DICK

He goes downstairs to see Bruce siting reading the newspaper, he gets up to greet dick.
Bruce: hey dick
Dick: whats up bruce
Bruce: I have noticed how lonely you been and sometimes I forget how big this place can be
Dick: really (he crosses his arms)
Bruce: so me and Oliver that it would be a great time for you to meet his son
Dick(surprised): what?
Ding,dong
Bruce: that must be them already
They went to answer the door
Dick: I don't want to be friends with another billionaire kid, last time you got to be friends with another kid like that, he tried to kill me.
Bruce: (bends down to him) well try to get along with him ok, (he gets up) also later your going to meet green arrow's sidekick
Dick: oh great, another kid you want robin to be friends with
Bruce: in sure you and him, will get along fine
He opens the door to see Oliver
Bruce: hey Oliver
Oliver: evening Bruce
He looks down to see dick
Oliver: kid
He waves at him
Oliver: this is my son Roy
He moves to reveal, a orange hair kid, that looks like dick's age, he had a orange t-shirt, orange sneakers, a orange baseball cap, and glasses.
He was playing on a video game console, when he looked up at dick.
Oliver: Roy (he pushes him gently inside) this is dick
All he did was stare at dick no saying anything, both boys just stared at each other. Bruce bend down to dick.
Bruce: don't be shy say hi
Dick: hey
Roy: hi
Bruce: ok so why do you and Roy come inside
Oliver: ok as they walked inside
Bruce grabbed dick's should
Bruce: I want you to talk to him
Oliver did the same thing with his kid
Dick: what? But
Roy: I barely know him
Oliver: just
Bruce: try to be friendly with him
Both sat on the couch separated from each other, Bruce and Oliver went down in the bat cave to discuss some business.
Oliver: so while the boys try to get to know each other, why don't you tell me what's the big emergency.
Bruce: (going through the bat computer) last night there was robbery, He pulls out a video of the robbery, it showed a the thief was Donning a costume resembling of a Musketeer, he has a sword and stole a bag of jewels, but Oliver got a closer look and recognized him.
Oliver: cavalier
Bruce: who
Oliver: Mortimer Drake a.k.a the cavalier he's a Theft, Swordsmanship, and Marksmanship in star city.
Bruce: if he's from star city what's he doing in Gotham
Oliver: I don't know, but I do know that he's going back to Iron Heights prison
Bruce: well I tracked his next move and I think I know where he's heading next
Oliver: how'd you did you
Bruce: I'm the Batman, anyway his next target is the bank, we can go right now and catch him
Oliver: alright, but what about the boys
Bruce: let them, try to bond with each other
They walk upstairs
Oliver: why are you doing this again
Bruce: case i don't want dick to grow up having no friends
Oliver: well I guess Roy could use a buddy of his own
When they came up, they still saw the boys still away from each other, they had an idea, they walked up behind the boys, placing their hand on their shoulder and push them closer to each other.
Oliver: so hows things with your company
Bruce: great
Still pushing them together, the boys hesitate until they were final, next to each other, as their shoulders touch, they looked at each other and quickly looked away.
Bruce/Oliver: chuckles
Bruce: well, I guess we should be going now
Roy/dick: huh?
Oliver: yeah
Bruce: Alfred, keep an eye on the boys we'll be right back
Alfred: yes sir (he nods)
Dick begins to panic and rushes to him, Oliver's kid grabs his arm
Roy/dick: you can't leave me here with him
Oliver: you will be fine
Bruce: just try to get him to... show your video game
Dick/Roy: (sighs) ok fine
Bruce(whispers): and remember later you going to meet green arrow's sidekick
Dick: we're still not gonna like each other
Bruce: at least try to get along with him
As they left, dick was stuck with Oliver's son
As the dark knight and archer were on patrol looking for cavalier, in arrow's ship, they final arrived at the bank, they got inside only to get ambush.
Meanwhile back at Wayne manor, dick was trying to avoid making eye contact with Oliver's son, then Alfred came in
Alfred: you know master Richard, master Bruce had a hard time making friends too,
He looked at him then back at Roy
Alfred: why don't talk to him about something
Just then the alarm ranged in his phone, he took it out and it was the bat signal
Batman is in trouble
Dick: sorry Alfred but the Batman needs me, I'm just going to have to make friends another day
He runs a different direction
Dick: keep our guest busy
Alfred: (sigh) very well master dick
But at the same time, their guest disappeared
Back with Batman and green arrow, they woke up tied to each other, then they heard someone laughing.
Cavalier: (evil chuckles) well,well if isn't my old chum green arrow and his accomplice Batman
At of the shadow, cavalier walk in on them.
Green arrow: cavalier, what do you want
Cavalier: to rob every store in this city
Green arrow: you won't get away with this
Cavalier: oh contrary I already have archer
Batman: our sidekicks will stop you
Cavalier: (chuckles) oh we'll see about that
Robin was swinging from rooftop to building, he pulls out his phone
Robin: Batman, hang on I'm on my wa-
Thuds
Just then like a quick flash, he bumps into someone
Robin: Ah ow, watch were your going
As robin and the mysterious stranger fall down on the ground as he gets up he sees a kid his age in a Robin Hood costume but it was red suit, yellow gloves and boots, and has a yellow hat instead of a hood, with a red bow.
Speedy: sorry I-
Both boys looked at each other
Robin: how are you
Speedy: I'm speedy
He looks at robin
Speedy: who are you, a circus performer
Robin: I'm robin
Speedy: robin? The boy wonder
Robin: yeah!
Speedy: my mentor, told me I was going to meet you
Robin: mines too
Just then they heard an alarm go on.
Rrrriiiinnnngggg
it was cavalier, he just robbed another jewelry store, both heroes, looked at each other then at him, then they raced after him, when speedy pulled out his arrow, tripped over on his feet and fell on robin as he pulled out his robinrangs. They both fell into a lake. They got up and saw cavalier got away.
Robin: ugh, thanks a lot he got away
Speedy: sorry
They both ran after him, robin threw his robinrangs on his arm, as he gets ready to cuff him, speedy throws his arrow at him, it cuts him loosefrom the robinrangs.
As he escapes, robin stares upset at speedy as he smiles shyly
And they both ran again only to get knocked out by one of count vertigo's men. They were sent flying into a dumpster
Back with Batman and green arrow, caviar had them tied up in a warehouse, he puts a bomb in front of them.
Cavalier: sorry I cannot stay and enjoy the fireworks,
He turns the bomb on
Cavalier: but I have a boat to catch
He carries a bag of jewels and money over his back and heads to the boat, at the port where count vertigo awaits for him. He throws the bags on the boat.
Vertigo: did you did the job
Cavalier: (he does a curtsy And takes his hat off) yes my good sir, it wasn't easy but I did have a few obstacles
Vertigo: obstacles?
Cavalier: speedy and his new friend
Vertigo: new friend? Describe him
Cavalier: black hair, looked like he was in a circus, wore red and green and he threw some kind of range at me.
Vertigo: you fool! That was Batman's sidekick robin
Cavalier: oh relax, he's just a sidekick, he's no worse then his partner
Vertigo: that's the same thing you said about speedy
Cavalier: (he pulls out his sword) just get the boat ready ok, the bomb is about ready to go off
Robin and speedy looked down at them, he looks through the binoculars and puts them down.
Robin: cavalier and count vertigo have our mentors in that warehouse, and their about to be blown to pieces.
Speedy: huh
Robin: (sigh) look I know you don't like me and I probably won't like you
Speedy: I never said that
Robin: but if we're going to say our partners, we're going to have work together
He puts his hand out to him
Robin: truce
Speedy: (he shakes it) truce
He shoots a line out for them with his robinrang, they slide on it, but then count vertigo's henchmen cut the wire and they both fell down, speedy shot his arrow and grabbed robin's arm, he swung themselves to safety.
Robin: thanks
Speedy: no problem (he tips his hat)
They looked around to see, they were surrounded by count vertigo's men, robin pulls out his staff and attacks the men on the right as speedy hits the one on the left with his bow.
Back at the warehouse, Batman pulls out a knife from his utility belt and cuts the rope, they escape and throw the bomb in the ocean, and head to the boat.
Batman: I'll get count vertigo, you take cavalier
Green arrow: aw, but I wanted to take down count vertigo
Batman jumps on count vertigo, as green arrow hits cavalier with his arrows
Back with robin and speedy, both of their weapons with taken away, their was too many of them, as they were being surrounded they were back against each other, as their backs touch each other, they looked at each other they soon got the same idea, they locked each other's arms and robin gets speedy a lift, and he starts kicking the henchmen down as he spins them around, then they switch, then speedy throws robin in air and punches more henchmen as robin lands on henchmen, he twist and kicks two more that we're charging his way, one by one as a team, they took down each henchmen. Then when lands on the ground he didn't see the henchmen man that was coming towards him, speedy hits him down with his punching arrow. Robin saw
Robin: thanks
Speedy smiled at him, but ducked when he saw robin punching him, but only to see that another henchmen was going to attack him behind his back.
They looked gladly at each other as speedy hands him his staff
Robin: thanks now let's go
Back with Batman, he punches count vertigo down as green arrow shoots his netting arrow at cavalier, but neither one of their strategies work, so they tried for a new tactic, when speedy and robin came in work together, speedy bend down for robin, as he ran and step on his back and jumped and kicked count vertigo, speedy shoots arrow at cavalier's sword causing it to fall In the ocean, he rans off, green arrow tries to go after him. Speedy stops him, robin goes after him.
Speedy: we take care of cavalier, you and Batman deal with count vertigo
Green arrow gives him a nod as he runs to count vertigo, speedy goes help robin.
Green arrow and Batman, punch him but he ducks, and they each punch each other, arrow tres kicking him, but he jumps then Batman steps on his cape, as the struggles to pull it away from him, he lets it go and he stumbles backwards almost falling off, he runs to receive a punch from Batman and green arrow at the same time, he falls in the water.
With robin and speedy as they see cavalier getting away, they stop and looked at each other, getting another idea, speedy pulls out his bow and robin grabs on it, he swings him around and around and throws him in the air. And robin kicks him down.
Cavalier: aww oh
Speedy walks over to robin, and they both smiled at each other
After they arrested cavalier and count vertigo and sent them back to star city, they headed back to the bat cave where robin and speedy were already bonding.
Speedy/robin: (chuckles)
Speedy: ok now I know why you're called robin, did you see how you flew in the air and knocked out cavalier
Robin: that was nothing, I mean you and that bow, (chuckles) now that was something
He pulls the bow out
Speedy: oh this old thing yeah it was nothing
Robin: it was more then nothing, you saved me with that thing
Speedy: well you kinda saved me too
Robin: I see why they called you speedy
Robin/speedy: (laughing)
Green arrow: well it looks like they got along fine
Robin/speedy: yeah
Batman: you too, would make great friends
They stared at each other
Batman: maybe you two, could see your identities, since you will be working together
They smiled in agreement
Robin/speedy: yeah (excitement)
They both removed their masked at the same time and speedy took off his hat, and were shocked to see who they were.
Dick/Roy: (gasp)
Dick: Oliver's kid is speedy
Roy: Robin is mr. Wayne's son
They look at their mentors then back at each other
They begin to laugh
Roy/dick: (chuckles)
Dick: well at least we got to know each other
Roy: yeah
Dick: we make a pretty great team
Roy: yep
They high-five each other
Roy: you know dick you make a great hero
Dick: I could say the same to you
Roy: I guess this mean we'll be seeing each other a lot
Dick: you know Roy (he grabs him by the shoulder) I think this is a start of a beautiful friendship
He smiles at him
Green arrow: I think we just created a terrible friendship
Batman: at least they got along
The very next day, Oliver and speedy were getting ready to leave, the boys were disappointed
Dick: do you guys really have to go
Roy: I don't wanna leave either dick but Oliver wants us to go home
Dick: well maybe you don't have to go you could spend the night
Roy: (gasp) please can I
Oliver: sorry Roy maybe another time

As the car drives off, they still talked
Dick: and your welcome to Wayne manor anytime
Roy: your welcome to too, at our mansion, I PROMISE I'll VISIT

Roy: PALS FOREVER
He watches as the car leaves Wayne manor gates, For the first time ever, dick made a new friend and he won't have to cope with loneliness.

Back with robin and speedy, both of their weapons with taken away, their was too many of them, as they were being surrounded they were back against each other, as their backs touch each other, they looked at each other they soon got the same idea, they locked each other's arms and robin gets speedy a lift, and he starts kicking the henchmen down as he spins them around, then they switch, then speedy throws robin in air and punches more henchmen as robin lands on henchmen, he twist and kicks two more that we're charging his way, one by one as a team, they took down each henchmen. Then when lands on the ground he didn't see the henchmen man that was coming towards him, speedy hits him down with his punching arrow. Robin saw
Robin: thanks
Speedy smiled at him, but ducked when he saw robin punching him, but only to see that another henchmen was going to attack him behind his back.
They looked gladly at each other as speedy hands him his staff
Robin: thanks now let's go
Back with Batman, he punches count vertigo down as green arrow shoots his netting arrow at cavalier, but neither one of their strategies work, so they tried for a new tactic, when speedy and robin came in work together, speedy bend down for robin, as he ran and step on his back and jumped and kicked count vertigo, speedy shoots arrow at cavalier's sword causing it to fall In the ocean, he rans off, green arrow tries to go after him. Speedy stops him, robin goes after him.
Speedy: we take care of cavalier, you and Batman deal with count vertigo
Green arrow gives him a nod as he runs to count vertigo, speedy goes help robin.
Green arrow and Batman, punch him but he ducks, and they each punch each other, arrow tres kicking him, but he jumps then Batman steps on his cape, as the struggles to pull it away from him, he lets it go and he stumbles backwards almost falling off, he runs to receive a punch from Batman and green arrow at the same time, he falls in the water.
With robin and speedy as they see cavalier getting away, they stop and looked at each other, getting another idea, speedy pulls out his bow and robin grabs on it, he swings him around and around and throws him in the air. And robin kicks him down.
Cavalier: aww oh
Speedy walks over to robin, and they both smiled at each other
After they arrested cavalier and count vertigo and sent them back to star city, they headed back to the bat cave where robin and speedy were already bonding.
Speedy/robin: (chuckles)
Speedy: ok now I know why you're called robin, did you see how you flew in the air and knocked out cavalier
Robin: that was nothing, I mean you and that bow, (chuckles) now that was something
He pulls the bow out
Speedy: oh this old thing yeah it was nothing
Robin: it was more then nothing, you saved me with that thing
Speedy: well you kinda saved me too
Robin: I see why they called you speedy
Robin/speedy: (laughing)
Green arrow: well it looks like they got along fine
Robin/speedy: yeah
Batman: you too, would make great friends
They stared at each other
Batman: maybe you two, could see your identities, since you will be working together
They smiled in agreement
Robin/speedy: yeah (excitement)
They both removed their masked at the same time and speedy took off his hat, and were shocked to see who they were.
Dick/Roy: (gasp)
Dick: Oliver's kid is speedy
Roy: Robin is mr. Wayne's son
They look at their mentors then back at each other
They begin to laugh
Roy/dick: (chuckles)
Dick: well at least we got to know each other

He smiles at him
Green arrow: I think we just created a terrible friendship
Batman: at least they got along
The very next day, Oliver and speedy were getting ready to leave, the boys were disappointed

IT (2017): For a movie with a clown, it was pretty funny.
Tumblr media
Hello everyone! I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted a movie review (about 4 months, it seems), but I’ve been a little busy with trying to balance everything that the adult life brings. Speaking of which, let’s discuss a little movie that tackles the issue of growing up and facing your fears. 
IT, a movie that I hate the title of, is a horror movie directed by Andres Muschietti that is based on a book by Corgi-owner Stephen King. If you don’t know who Andres Muschietti is, then you’re a-okay because this is literally one of two films that he has ever directed. If you don’t know who Stephen King is, chances are you’re living under a rock or forgot his name. Why am I pointing these out? Because these are two of the only things of significance for this film. This movie really brings absolutely nothing new to the horror genre, nor does it bring anything significant to film-making in general. The only impressive part about it is the fact that they apparently strapped a GoPro to Pennywise’s head and had him run forward to make it seem like he’s “popping out” at you. 
Tumblr media
It’s just not scary. Anytime it tries to be, it falls flat. The dead jump-scare horse is beaten further by this movie. Now I’ve seen some people ranting online about their experience at their local theater watching this film. I was specifically surprised at a post on Reddit. I don’t think it’s wrong to find this movie laughable. For the most part there was only about two parts that caused me to recoil back into my seat. That’s two parts out of a 2.5 hour long movie. That’s not good for a film that’s trying to be scary. Plus, anytime it does try to be scary, most of those parts come off as funny. Clowns are funny. There’s a scene I’m sure most people have seen through trailers online where Pennywise pops out of a projector screen. It was supposed to be scary. They really tried to make it freaky. However, it falls flat on it’s face and just becomes really hilarious. Wouldn’t you laugh if you saw a clown crawling on all fours running towards you with little bells ringing? 
But I’m not trying to seem hard-as-nails here. I honestly think this movie doesn’t do well spook-wise. It constantly builds this fake tension only to either cut away from the scene, or to actually have a predictable jump-scare. I think one of the main reasons that this doesn’t work is the movie fails to have the proper music or stings needed to really make these jump-scares pack a punch. Usually a horror film will have the typical silent-moment with a loud sound occurring when something spooky is supposed to happen. IT doesn’t really do that. In fact, it almost always does the opposite. It always has weird music playing in the background of the scary scenes, and constantly relies on “scary clown music”. 
Tumblr media
Moving on from that, before I start ranting about my disdain for jump-scares more, I’d like to talk about the acting. This movie’s cast is comprised mostly of child actors. Needless to say they all give pretty good performances, especially considering the script they were handed. I mean, how many kids do you know that would say they’d like to star in a movie about a scary clown trying to murder them and kill all their friends? They put on a good show. The only part I didn’t like is Richie. Finn Wolfhard is a good actor, especially in Stranger Things. But it seems like he was just given this part because he could say “Fuck” better than everyone else. The jokes from him also fall flat. It’s constant “your mom” jokes, and dick jokes. Something that a kid his age would find funny, but something I just find annoying. That makes me sound like a cynical old man, I know, but you go back and watch the movie a second time and tell me you don’t just want to tell him to shut up. Every scene with him is interrupted by some sort of quip. Even the end fight has him making jokes. It’s like they put a 15 year-old Deadpool in the movie. It’s just annoying. 
The movie also just goes on for far too long. At times where you think there’s going to be some sort of conclusion to the path the film has had you travelling on, it quickly makes a sharp turn into something else. It’s non-stop. The “scary parts” are even padded out. It goes back and forth between some sort of character-building or a scene of relevance, only to have to the clown show up and be his doofy psycho self for a few minutes. It’s endless. On my first viewing I kept turning to one of my good friends and saying “When will this end?!”. 2.5 hours is just too long for a movie like this. Even if it’s been adapted from a terribly long book. I just don’t care. No movie should be this long unless it’s Star Wars. 
Lastly I’d like to discuss why I think this movie is getting all the praise it has. This information is mainly coming from other reviews I’ve read, and from what my friends and coworkers have told me. I feel like this movie is only receiving favorable reviews because it’s better than the original. The 1990 version is pretty terrible. Most people can agree on that. Pennywise just comes off as a doofy clown trying to troll the kids, not a freaky demon that is trying to murder them (like in this version). It’s bad, real bad. But this film makes up for it. It improves on almost every aspect of the original, and even sticks close to the book (from what I’ve been told). But does that make it a good movie? Should we judge something based on something by the fact that it is indeed just a rehash of material from a book, or an older movie? That’s always how these types of films are looked at. No one has ever looked at Hunger Games face-value. They’ve only ever really compared them to the books. Same with Harry Potter. I feel like if people took off their fandom glasses, they’d see a flawed film. Not just something that’s “not as good as the book”, but something that is purely just not that good. 
Tumblr media
Most people I’ve talked about this movie with have done nothing but mention the book, or the original movie. I went in for a second viewing with none of that in mind, just to try and get some sort of point for this review. As my readers may know, I try to have a point to these. My Pirates 5 review was nothing but a big complaint about sequels and reboots in modern Hollywood. However, I can’t really think of a main point for this review. IT has left me at a loss for words. All I can say is it’s simply not good. It beats the 90s version, and is apparently close enough to the book that it makes it bearable for King fans. But if you’re looking for a good movie, you won’t find it here. If you’re looking for a proper terrifying flick, try watching something else. If you’re afraid of clowns and looking to overcome your fear, I’d suggest speaking to your psychologist before seeing this. But on top of it all, I don’t believe IT is a good movie. 
I give IT (2017) a 6/10. +5 points for good acting, +1 point for making me laugh. The rest is all taken off due to the fact that I’m a cynical old man who needs to go get eaten by a clown. Screw me amirite?
