🦇🦇IT'S BATMAN DAY!!! 🦇🦇
The Dark Knight is my favorite superhero, so it would be remiss of me to let the day pass without honoring him! To represent, here are some pictures of my favorite animated versions of the Caped Crusader!🦇❤️ (Mostly animation designs by Bruce Timm)
These animated Bats were chosen also, because they're voiced by 3 of my favorite voice actors who gave life to Batman! It should come as no surprise that I would choose to mostly represent those voiced by Kevin Conroy, as he is THE VOICE I associate most with the World's Greatest Detective!
Jason O'Mara & Bruce Greenwood and their respective Batmans, are very different, but in all the best ways! Through them, we get to see how they interpreted Batman and how they chose to bring him to life in new ways! They're fantastic editions to not only the DCU, but also to the wide range of men who have 'been' Batman before them and to those who have and will come after!

Hypnotic Movie Review
Feeling stuck both personally and professionally, Jenn turns to a mysterious hypnotherapist for help, only to find herself caught in a deadly mind game.
I love a good thriller. In my opinion, a good thriller is much more terrifying than a horror movie, most of which I just find amusing. Hypnotic has a pretty straightforward plot, and a small cast of characters, but is able to create an engaging storyline with this. Whilst it is obvious from the beginning that Jenn’s therapist is the villain of the story, there is still plenty of suspense to keep the audience entertained.
We know from the beginning that Dr Meade will be responsible for Jenn’s issues, much as we can all guess how this film will end. The thrills come from the journey to get to that point, and the horrors that are revealed about Dr Meade and his methods – but most importantly, his past. As the narrative progresses, the focus narrows even more so on individual characters and what they are fighting for.
Kate Siegel perfectly embodies the terror that Jenn feels for much of the narrative, and the lengths that she will go to for the truth; Jason O’Mara is the archetypal creep and plays his role brilliantly. What I also love is that Jenn is almost immediately believed by everyone in the narrative, rather than the usual dismissing of a mental health crisis. Yet at the same time, Hypnotic plays with the assumptions and judgements that she would receive. Whilst the detective believes her, having investigated Dr Meade before in a similar situation, he knows that the burden of proof in this case is much larger. This causes complications as they investigate behind the scenes.
Everything culminates in a final act that plays with perspective and expectations, providing an interesting sequence of events. You’ll definitely be finding yourself wondering, like Jenn, what is and isn’t real.
Unfortunately, a few of the twists towards the end were probably meant to be surprises, although I found them to be pretty obvious.

Justice League Dark (2017)
When I popped Justice League Dark into my Blu-ray player, I was greeted by the MPAA's "R" rating. It gives the wrong impression. This enjoyable story showcases a number of lesser-known heroes from the DC Universe and isn’t going to raise controversy. It could’ve easily been trimmed down to a PG-13 rating with a few creative edits. One can't help but feel like it was pushed into "adult" territory solely as a marketing ploy.
A series of bizarre incidents around the world brings Batman (voiced by Jason O’Mara) to recruit magical heroes (or would-be heroes) together. Hopefully, the Dark Knight, along with occultist John Constantine (Matt Ryan), magician Zatanna (Camilla Luddington), ghostly Deadman (Nicholas Turturro), and demon-possessed Jason Blood/Etrigan (Ray Chase) can track down the sinister entity behind it all.
I should begin by mentioning that while DC Comics favorite Swamp Thing (voiced by Roger Cross) is in the film, it’s more of a cameo. The Blu-ray cover is misleading. The character’s inclusion is somewhat puzzling, but I could see him taking on a bigger role in the next chapter, or perhaps his own DC Animated Original film (let’s hope) so I'll let it slide for now.
Justice League Dark features the same level of animation as the other recent direct-to-home video films from Warners Bros. Animation/DC Entertainment. It’s not movie quality, but it's good for a direct-to-video feature - though not as good as when this series began. That’s perfectly fine. What it does with its budget is quite impressive. There’s a big battle between the team of heroes and a familiar villain (I won’t say who) that showcases what you can do with both magical characters and a medium that is free from the limitations of stunt people and living actors. Another pro is the cast. While some characters are more developed than others, the film keeps up the excitement and tension by featuring a crew of B-listers. Since we’re not guaranteed a Justice League Dark 2 and few would call Deadman or Jason Blood a favorite, you’re never quite sure where the action scenes are headed. Sure, Batman is safe, but the other ones? They could die!
Less effective is the film’s climax and central mystery. It’s not bad, it’s just that 75 minutes isn't long enough to bury the obvious suspect beneath red herrings and other distractions. We could’ve also used more explanations/clarifications for some of the game-changing actions that take place during the last act. As has been the trend for several of these past films, Justice League Dark would've greatly benefitted from even just a few minutes more.
It’s pretty clear Batman has been included on this team solely to sell the film to the people who are not already familiar with the likes of Zatanna, Swamp Thing, and Constantine. It certainly isn’t because the story or other characters aren’t interesting enough on their own. While some behind-the-scenes aspects of Justice League Dark are puzzling and the story could be expanded further, I’d be enthusiastic to see a sequel. This one is worth checking out if you’re a fan of DC's ongoing series of animated films. (On Blu-ray, June 28, 2017)

!!! Thank you for the reblog on my fic !!! Your tags are literally like the nicest I’ve ever gotten and I’m 🥰🥰🥰
Really glad you could tell you’d find where he was from in the end. It’s embarrassing how long it took me to figure out that was the story 🙈 (it occurred also that I never said where either of the ladies were from but considering it’s a third person limited + they know where they’re from that didn’t seem insane. That, and I also don’t know which side of the Carolina border Nettie’s from tbh). And particularly thank you for the comment on the boys — I’ve always wanted to write Babe (was semi successful /once/) but have always been stuck waffling on him.
Also Mark’s accent!!! It’s so good!! And he’s very entertaining. Suspect this is a common trait amongst actors in general but. He was a d e l i g h t.
it was an absolute joy to read!!! and shoutout to the carolinas! my favorite southern accents. you definitely didn't waffle on babe--he's very clear here and you included that he was a dancer! such a great babe fun fact.

Band of Brothers Ages: IRL vs. Actors
Did you know that according to a 1947 study, almost half the men who served in WWII were still under age 26 by the end of the war?
What this is : A (very long) post comparing the ages of the actors in Band of Brothers vs. the IRL figures they are portraying.
Background: Did I need to do this? No. Did anyone ask for this? Also no. Did I do it anyway? Yes.
Disclaimers: This is SUPER approximate for the most part. I based IRL ages off of D-Day unless otherwise noted, and actor ages off of January 1, 2000, the year filming took place (the latter is where the most variation will be because I didn't try to figure out what month filming started). I also didn't fact-check birthdays beyond googling. Most are sourced from the Band of Brothers and Military Wikis on fandom.com, Wikipedia, and IMDb.
I broke them up into rough categories, which are, again, approximate. I know I often forget how young the real life people were here, and this was a good reminder of that. I also found it interesting to see which actors were actually younger than their roles!
