You know what, I'm currently isolating/dealing with Covid and have been watching Japanese and Korean movies all week. I'll knock this out tonight.

Appreciate it my man.
Super fatigued, I slept for a good 13 hours last night and woke up still super tired. Been taking long naps after being up for a couple hours. Head/bodyaches, dizziness and cloudy headed, I'll be thinking of something and it'll just disappear and I won't be able to recall it. Sore throat/cough and fever. My equilibrium has felt off, it's not often but I'll get shortness of breath too.
I'm vaxed+boosted but I think my pops got it from work then exposed me to it when I saw him last. It's not fun
I'll be straight though

Haha I think youre talking about Akira Kurosawa. Kiyoshi Kurosawa is a more recent director although he has a couple of his films up on Criterion too.I think it is. Surprisingly Kurosawa has like ALL his films on there. I booked marked a few last night.
Feel better
Cure is a mystery/horror movie. Comparable in vibe to Seven

Oh **** I thought that was the OG
Even better then. I'll see if its available and add it to the front of the list. Been needing a good new horror lately.

Without Batman Begins, I don't think we have IRONMAN

i disagree
in these types of convos couple movies before begins don’t get enough credit
like ‘89 batman and returns.. blade 1 and 2.. but the market realized comicbook movies were a thing by ironman and ironman was a combo of a few films that proceeded it

I think we would’ve got more of those Ben Affleck type DAREDEVILS.

I don't hate it. I don't think its a poor film in the least especially among superhero flicks.
I just don't think it did anything groundbreaking or impactful. Like I watched it, it was cool, things I liked, things I didn't care for. Its almost exactly how I felt about Captain America: First Avenger.
I probably shouldnt have even spent more than one sentence comparing it to TDK cuz it is unfair.
I just know when I was done watching it, I wasn't super hyped for the sequel.

you missing a key point
fox did daredevil and we saw how the butchered multiple great comic characters
ironman was actually done by marvel plus have jon favreau who is a huge ironman fan plus having someone extremely talented as RDJ who’s life mimics the characters on several points

I see your point, though.
I'm scrolling through so many more MARVELS right now, trying to make sure I've seen what I think I have.

I feel like when ppl say that its like they're trying to convince themselves it was better than TDK
A going against the grain take indeed.Cuz when it comes to Batman/Bruce Wayne Begins barely scratched the emotional surface of the character but that's an issue with Nolan in all 3 Batman movies. Got more character work from Alfred than Bruce.
This is 100% false.
But it kinda takes knowing what it took to create Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige's vision along with Jon Favreau's approach when they decided to make Iron Man the first movie in the MCU. The tone, the approach, character work, the upgrading and adding to the character, and the improv were all things running counter to what came before it.
That aside the two movies ain't even in the same vein. I'm not sure what they have in common; story wise, character wise, pacing, cinematography, etc.

Tonights viewing 
I was. That ending.
“Now take this guy. Armed robbery, double homicide, has a taste for the theatrical, like you. Leaves a calling card.”

After what they did with Scarecrow and Ra's I was unsure what Nolan would or could do with Joker given this style and tone.

Batman Begins is really what got me into Sci-Fi, Fiction and The likes.
Before that film I wouldn’t even watch films for like that unless it was a chance to stunt to the Theatre with a broad and show off my Outfit/Kicks etc.
It put some things into perspective for me.
I was already a Big Fan of Bale because of his American Pyscho.
Even Blade, I was out on that **** outside of a chance to stunt, and when I saw it I did like it, but Begins changed my thoughts.

I wanted my FILMS to be something that I could relate to and for sure experience, “real life” stuff.
Not after Batman Begins.
I Was a changed Man.

Damn, you cheated yourself out of decades of great sci-fi and fiction. Now I get it though. You got a lot to catch up on.
