I saw Lego Batman when it first came out and, man, I had a great time. This, to me, is what a comic book movie should be. Just a fun ride from beginning to end. Great dialogue, nice music, and a pretty weighty consideration of the relationship between good and evil all accompany the film. If you haven't seen it yet, please do. You won't be disappointed. Next on my agenda is to see the Lego Movie itself.
I was also able to see Batman: Mask of the Phantasm on Netflix. I actually saw it for the first time with my mom when it debuted in 1993. It didn't really wow me then, but man, was I wrong! Folks, this might be the best movie ever made. I think the Batman from Batman: The Animated Series is the best version we've gotten, and this is one heck of a story. I love Bruce's relationship with Andrea, and how that ties in to the mystery of the Batman. And the whole underworld of Gotham (complete with the Joker) is expertly crafted. Such a great film! I'm glad I thought to see it twice. Check it out, if you can!
