Pictures and DC Comics managed to deliver an enjoyable entry into their much-maligned canon. To be fair, they have already pulled off a relative miracle in keeping their titular lead actor, Ezra Miller, from earning yet more bad press in recent months. So they already had run through most of [...]

[Review] https://nerdbot.com/2022/12/13/avatar-the-way-of-water-who-do-you-think-you-are-james-cameron-review/ Tue, 13 Dec 2022 16:59:44 +0000 https://nerdbot.com/?p=139295 The short version: It’s a must-see, and in a theater with the best screen and sound you can find. It IS 3 hours and 10 minutes long, with no good spots to run for the restroom, so go before the movie starts. There are no mid or post-credits scenes, so once the credits roll, you [...]
