Just got out of a screening!
It's fantastic! I didn't think it would top TDK, but it did!
Feel free to ask me any questions.

How woke is it?
shareThere is a line where Catwoman mentions white privilege
shareomg lol
shareAre you serious?
shareNot joking. Don't get me wrong, the movie is great, but that line was cringe.
shareI'm a little split on that line. I hate all the PC/woke stuff in movies and TV shows, but I can sort of give it a pass this one time because of how it was used. Catwoman/Selina was talking about white people in power or white people in higher-up jobs that are abusing their power. She wasn't talking about ALL white people and not like the white dude working as a janitor at Walmart, or someone flipping burgers at McDonald's, or the person bagging groceries at a grocery store, or someone working the cash register at a gas station, or even neighbors that happen to be white. She was talking about the white people that are politicians or have high-rank jobs (senators, governors, mayors, etc.) in the government or maybe a high-ranked officer (police commissioner and the couple high ranks right below police commissioner or maybe just any corrupt police officer/officers abusing their badge), or maybe someone major in the mob like Carmine Falcone. She was pretty much talking about everyone that The Riddler killed, who were all abusing their power/badge, were corrupt, and had it coming to them what The Riddler did to them. All of the guys The Riddler killed were white. Maybe if there was an Asian or black in there, maybe Catwoman/Selina wouldn't have been so specific and worded things differently. But these jobs/titles that those that were killed have are pretty much a privilege to have (except Carmine Falcone, who probably murdered his way to the top and stuff or was next in line because of family members or something). The jobs/titles had to be earned (mainly through winning an election) and these white people that had their jobs were abusing them and stuff. So I can sort of get the usage of white privilege in this scenario and give it a slight pass.
shareGreat to know, I'll bit torrent it when it's out on Blu-Ray.
shareThey just need to keep saying it. Eventually it will lose all meaning. It pretty much has already.
shareBarf. We have to watch this movie for the next hundred years and keep hearing that.
shareYeah, a review by THR mentioned that exact quote but made it seem that was the only cringe line;that the case?
shareHow horror is it?
shareShirtless Pattinson or no?
shareI saw it too and it's good but no way in hell did it top The Dark Knight.
