Joker
(15) – what’s it about?
The origin story of Batman’s most well-known enemy – the Joker.
A film based on the DC
comic book universe, this one focuses on the villain the Joker and how he came
to be the baddie we all know so well. It is a really dark film so don’t expect
this at all to be happy and amusing, it is filled with negativity and bad shit
that leads to insanity. It really does hash out the Jokers story and changed my
perspective on the character, he used to just be a bad guy but now I see him as
a poor guy that suffered so much shit and I can understand why he turned out
the way he did, I feel sorry for him now. Yeah if you want to watch something
with an intense story that really throws you deep into the DC universe then
definitely look this one up.

Ghostbusters
(1984) (DVD – PG) –
what’s it about? A team of supernatural investigators set up a firm to tackle
New York’s ghost problem.
They were doing a special
screening at the cinema for the 35th anniversary of this so I
thought I’d go and re-watch it as I hadn’t seen it for a couple of years and
its always way better seeing something on the big screen rather than the tv. I
forgot how funny this film was, it was really amusing, the graphics have aged a
bit now but then again it is getting on a bit as a film, but it still holds its
own as the story is good and the characters are just great characters. Yeah if
you haven’t seen this for a while it’s definitely worth a re-watch just for the
lol factor.

Batman
Forever (DVD – PG) –
what’s it about? Batman must take down the Riddler and Two-Face who are
terrorising Gotham.
I decided to give this a
re-watch as I haven’t seen it in a while, its amazing how films have changed
over the years, its like bam chuck in two villains in one film and add Robin
too, yeah its quite full up this one. I sadly remembered there being more to it
though, I could have sworn that it gave more backstory for the villains but I’m
probably remembering that from the other countless Bat stuff I’ve seen/read
over the years. Again as above if you haven’t seen this for a while then its
worth looking at for a bit of light hearted comic book action, you just have to
keep in mind it is getting on a little bit now.
