My Thoughts:
Finally got around to watching this one. I really enjoyed it. I admit that I was a little concerned when I saw a new name voicing Batman... where I am so used to Kevin Conroy doing the voice for him. But this guy did a fine job. I also liked that Jason Ackles does the voice for The Red Hood in this one. He of course plays one of he Winchester brothers in Supernatural. If there is one character I didn't care for in this film.... it would have to be the way they did The Joker. I think the main thing I didn't like about him was the voice. It was like it was almost too normal if that makes any sense. The storyline in this film is very good. It easily kept my interest from beginning to the end. I can easily see myself enjoying this one again.My Rating:

The Soloist, a review by Rich
The Soloist
True story, a very interesting and unique story, but unfortunately delivered to probably only half of its potential. What a shame given the acting talent available, although I am not blaming them. Downey Jr has been a revelation in the last few flicks I've seen him in, but here he is wasted.
This disappointment in the film is heightened after watching the extras, which interviews the real life characters, who are wholly more interesting than their celluloid doubles.
This isn't to say the film is awful, it truly isn't. It was enjoyable, enlightening, moving, uplifting and tragic rolled into one. There are scenes that will stay with me, moments of wonder, musical genius, the harsh difference between have and have nots.
This should have been so much more.

My Thoughts:
This morning I have finished the 8th season of the series. This season I enjoyed a lot. I enjoyed how they did Doomsday in it. This season adds the character Tess Mercer. She is one that I can't say I really liked... but I didn't dislike her either. Pretty much a feeling of indifference. Since I just watched Season 9 of this show the first week of this month (what prompted me to watch the series from the start again)... I really don't feel the need to watch it again now. But I have officially watched 9 seasons of Smallville in only one month!
