Can't eliminate him as a villain there when his best episode is still to come.
Yep but did they show how he recovered from the "What's is Reality" episode? My memory is foggy.
The Riddler's Reform episode is a fun one to bring up because if Riddler really was trying to reform (yeah yeah, he wasn't....I know) but if he was, then Batman is just stalking him at that point and being one of those "you're always be a felon to me" type of folk with authority. Which I guess is what some of you are gleefully talking about in here in regards to Batman.

That Riddler episode on B:TAS with the maze was one of the best.
Although it should have basically eliminated him as a villain on the show.

Yeah, youtube can say something is in 4k or 1080p and it can look like ass. I know Netflix through Chrome looks like shit even with the HD settings on but much better in the windows app.
The quality thing for using Vimeo was something I thought might be a reason too. I was trying to "follow the money" by doing half-hearted Googling to see if Warner Bros/AT&T had some type of partnership with Vimeo's parent company (IAC) and/or if Warner Bros/AT&T had beef with Google (Youtube's parent company) recently. Nothing stuck out but I wasn't trying hard on this holy day.

Matt Reeves released a 4K version of the trailer. Enjoy everyone.
Pattinson's Batman > Everything.
Wait, that's Matt Reeve's verified Vimeo account?
I now need to know why Matt Reeves used Vimeo to host the teaser of all places.

Luka getting legitimately hurt this time (this man can ball but he is on the ground at least once per game after contact) probably bails the Clippers out from having a tougher series now. Sigh. Oh well. Hope Luka isn't done but we'll see.
Also, I'll admit I haven't watched ever second of this series but has Maxi Kleber ever made a three? This is reaching Rockets missing 27 straight threes status (sorry Lawful Metal).

Not at all confident in this "3rd Seeded" Nuggets squad even if they rally in this series, which I think is still possible.

I dunno man. You're probably right but these teams are not playing well. Dallas is soft so I'm waiting for the choke job.
Mavericks offense is usually good, but they blow too many big leads for me to have any real faith in them. That said, they have played the Clippers tough both games, one of which Porzingis got thrown out, so I hope they keep proving me wrong. Their bench showed up today. Boban had some damn moments and a fun interview with Inside the NBA crew. Good win.

The Jazz or Nuggets are food to the Clippers next round, imo. Maybe even to Mavericks if they somehow pulled off an upset

What are you guys talking about? No home court advantage? Are YOUR Orlando Magic not in the playoff bubble? They earned this moment as the lowest 8 seed. The championship goes through Orlando. Bucks beware.

Home ice in hockey means you get last change, which means you get to line match your best against their worst, or your checking line against their best, etc. It's pretty huge.
Outside of my hockey knowledge, so I appreciate this fact.

But, having said that, home ice matters more in playoff hockey than home court in basketball, and both Toronto and Edmonton went out in the qualifying round- so that's not a guarantee either.
In all seriousness now, I disagree. I think home court matters more in the NBA than the other four major US leagues. I think it's one of the reasons why the NBA playoffs generally have the least amount of playoff upsets out of the four leagues too.

What happens if these movies like Tenet bomb, or maybe worse: what happens if they do well? I wonder.
The narrative pushed will be interesting either way.

Not only should those theaters require masks if they're going to reopen, it wouldn't be a crazy idea if they actually provided masks too at these theater locations (like 3D glasses)for attendees for their employees'/ attendees' safety....but it's America. I'm sure that sounds like a wild, impossible mission.

Apparently same for Regal and Cinemark
Nothing good will come from this.
AMC at least backtracked due to the backlash. We'll see about the others.

Variety (@Variety) Tweeted:
AMC Theater CEO Adam Aron says their cinemas won't require masks upon reopening because they didn't "want to be drawn into a political controversy" https://t.co/zNjy9wzGMKAdmittedly, I'm not going to any movie theater any time soon anyway, but this AMC statement on masks is just spectacularly bad.

Certain states are starting to reopen theaters now, with no movies scheduled for two and a half more months. I can't imagine how that's gonna work for those places.
Plus, even with them reopen, there's still going to be a decent amount people not wanting to go to the movie theater. Add that with what you said above with no big mainstream movie coming out soon and that's probably not going to lead to great results. I guess it's better than being closed, but I feel you gotta have a movie draw or at least plan to draw.

So about that Houston Rockets small ball strategy...

The Nets and Kenny Atkinson have agreed to "mutually part ways"
Surprising move during the season which must mean there is some hot gossip behind it.
They better have someone solid in mind for next year.

Maybe because I didn't like this movie very much, but this movie came and went so fast. A summer breeze in December. Disney was milking the Avengers Endgame for all its worth even after the release, but this one...

Drop a 100 mill on Pikachu and Super Mario Bros heads, and yall still out here doubting Sonic the Hedgehog. Haters.
Seriously, Paramount needed a hit and Sonic might bail them out for a bit. Strange world. Definitely getting a terrible sequel.

It's strange because on the paper, the song's lyrics are helluva corny. Yet, if I'm honest with myself, I'm still into Edge's theme music and welcomed its return on this day. Sigh.

2020 NBA PLAYOFFS: OCTOFINALS
in BASKETBALL
Posted
Kawhi was playing amazing defense on Luka late in the fourth. He wasn't giving him an inch. Even Morris was giving Luka problems near the end. Yet, the Clippers switches led to Reggie Jackson(maybe Lu Williams once too) on Luka in a couple of key moments. Obviously not the matchup the Clippers want in those situations...
Lu Williams is just an offensive machine and nearly cover for Paul George's terrible shooting night. Kawhi knows how to get to his spots(also knows how to use push offs to lose defenders) and just hit shots.
I believe after tonight's game Maxi Kleber is shooting 1-17 in this series. That's a 5 percent 3 point shooting percentage. Dallas does not have a lot wing options but I see your pain Dallas fans.
