I know y’all give Travis Knight credit for Bumblebee being good, but we wouldn’t have had such a great story if not for this woman here:

Give this awesome woman credit too!

«Oh, I fell hard. Like out of a plane without a parachute, right in your dumb fucking face kind of hard. I lost all sense of who I was. I only had eyes for Pudding. We all know the saying, "Behind every successful man there's a badass broad." Well, that was me. I was the brains behind some of Mr. J's greatest stunts. Not that he let anyone know it.»

Bumblebee (2018)
My rating: 8/10
Honestly it's remarkable how many story beats this has in common with Bay's Transformers, given how that is a horrendous piece of garbage and this is actually really good.

If you’re going to a comic book movie, chances are you have to expect a certain amount of absurd. And one thing The Flash does is lean all the way into that. So shout out to Christina Hodson for standin’ 10 toes down in the silliness.

Bumblebee (2018)
Tumblr media
Calling Bumblebee the best of the live-action Transformers movies is faint praise. Even if you consider the 2007 film's action sequences and special effects/character designs, the bar wasn’t high. It's a shame. This is what a movie translation of the series should’ve been from the beginning. It focuses on just a few characters (including a charismatic lead) and builds their relationship using methods that have worked before but are no less effective.
On the robotic planet Cybertron, the Autobot rebels are on the verge of defeat at the hands of the cruel Decepticons. Young Autobot scout B-127 lands on Earth to establish a new base, only to be ambushed and critically injured. Disguising himself as a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle, the amnesiac "Bumblebee" is discovered and repaired by Charlie Watson (Hailee Steinfeld), an 18-year-old music lover and car enthusiast.
The obvious comparison is to both E.T. the Extra-terrestrial and The Iron Giant. A lonely child befriends an alien who must be kept hidden from the authorities. Shenanigans ensue when it’s left unsupervised because it acts more like a child than a member of an advanced species. There are a few times when entire scenes in Bumblebee feel like they’ve been copied and pasted from those other stories with only the names swapped out. This means the best it can get is a bronze medal while Spielberg and Brad Byrd’s movies duke it out for a combined gold. That’s ok. This movie is miles ahead of the next contestant and the Autobots/Decepticons bring some new ingredients to the mix.
It’s a prequel, which means the plot’s set in the ‘80s. Rather than feeling like a cheap bid to exploit nostalgia, it really works here. The Transformers is an ‘80s franchise and setting things in the past allows us to get back to its roots in multiple ways. Aside from Bumblebee and the Autobot leader, Optimus Prime (voiced by Peter Cullen), all the characters are new. We’re not trying to tie up the innumerable loose ends created by the "previous" movies. We’re just telling one effective story centered around friendship and personal growth. The big threats are Bumblebee being discovered by U.S. Army Colonel Jack Burns (John Cena, a great choice for this role) and a pair of villainous Decepticons (voiced by Angela Bassett and Justin Theroux). Charlie’s summer job at the carnival - though crappy - also makes you recall simpler times. Gone are the bathroom jokes, the dubious roles for women and visual minorities and the cacophony of shredded metal while entire cities are laid to ruin.
Then there’s the music. Throughout, we hear great tunes - and not simply the usual “best ofs”. This soundtrack feels like it belongs to Charlie. They help flesh out her character and her relationship with the alien robot. It helps that Hailee Steinfeld is a gem. You just want to walk up to her and give her a big hug, particularly when she’s lamenting the death of her father (a subplot that’s nicely handled by the director and the actress alike).
The action scenes we do get are clearly shot and remain tense because we care about the characters. You want Charlie to survive. You also want her to overcome her grief, make friends, maybe even fall in love with her shy neighbor, Memo (Jorge Lendeborg). You like Bumblebee because the amnesic robot is funny and because he's kind of cuddly in a "child-like giant metal man that can inexplicably understand English" sort of way. Yes, the bulk of the times we saw the yellow 'bot he was in some bad stories but you still have a bond with him, one not unlike Charlie’s.
Upon initial release, Bumblebee was merely billed as a prequel to the franchise. I say ditch those other stories and keep going with this route. While it may be slightly derivative of other projects and the mechanical villains could’ve been developed further, this is solid ground on which you could start a franchise… for real this time. (On Blu-ray, September 18, 2020)

'The Flash' Movie and 4K Review
The following review was written by Ultimate Rabbit correspondent, Tony Farinella. In order to be direct with the readers, I must admit two things before reviewing “The Flash” – I’m not at all familiar with the drama surrounding Ezra Miller and his off-screen antics.  I’m also not at familiar with “The Flash.”  Because of these reasons, I was able to go into the film fairly fresh, which is how I…

So I went to a pre screening of The Flash last night because my husband got tickets and the things we do for love, but it was actually quite good for a superhero movie. It was more focused on the character of Barry Allen which was really nice to see. I also adore Michael Keaton as Batman. I say we bring back pre 9/11 super hero movies. Also Danny Elfman themes. Also female writers. Sole writing credit went to Christina Hodson, which slaps.

The Flash Trailer
“Worlds collide in “The Flash” when Barry uses his superpowers to travel back in time in order to change the events of the past. But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to turn to. That is, unless Barry can coax a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian… albeit not the one he’s looking for. Ultimately, to save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows, Barry’s only hope is to race for his life. But will making the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?” (Warner Bros Pictures)
The Flash is directed by Andy Muschietti from a screenplay by Christina Hodson. The screen story is by John Francis Daley, Jonathan Goldstein, and Joby Harold. The film stars Ezra Miller (Barry Allen / The Flash), Sasha Calle, Michael Shannon, Ron Livingston, Maribel Verdú, Kiersey Clemons, Antje Traue, and Michael Keaton.
The Flash hits theaters on June 16, 2023.

I just want to congratulate everyone who worked on Batgirl, especially Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, for their self control, because if I found out my ability to access the movie I spent two years working on was being blocked by studio executives I would be in a fucking jail cell.

The Failure of THE FLASH
Written by Christina Hodson Directed by Andy Muschietti Warner Bros. Pictures I finally got to see this movie for myself. I had planned to see it in the theaters when it was released in June, but just didn’t get the chance, so I’ve been waiting for it to be released on streaming, which it just was on Friday. And I’m just going to come right out and say that I can’t remember the last time I was…
