Behold a Delicious Gotham Parody
Granted, there’s really only one joke to a solid Gotham parody, but the fine folks at The Warp Zone nail it with aplomb. My thoughts on Gotham have dropped off since the first episode. Sometimes it’s good, sometimes it’s dumb. But overall it hasn’t really reached any sort of quality. Gotham so far lacks depth and consistency, and that’s not good. But hey, it’s got a whole season, so maybe it’ll go somewhere…
Some Only Leigh to Brighten Our Days
I’m going to level with you henchies: I’m on vacation, and man, is it easy to be lazy on vacation. I could be talking about the possible casting of Harley Quinn in the Suicide Squad movie, or I could be grousing about the weird new origin for Doctor Doom in the new Fantastic Four movie, but I really don’t care. Those are pop culture concerns for another day! Me? I’m watching new Only Leigh cartoons!
Life is good. Don’t ever forget that.

All Other Sins Pale in Comparison to the Quicksilver Blunder
X-Men: Days of Future Past is a good X-Men flick, but it’s not perfect, as Cinema Sins will tell us. But really, there’s only one real blunder in the film: why the heck did the X-Men ditch Quicksilver after he proved himself to be incredibly useful?
Obviously, Quicksilver couldn’t come with them because he would have solved every single crisis in the movie in the blink of an eye. But why not come up with an explanation? Maybe he didn’t want to help the X-Men anymore, so he demanded that they let him go home? Nope, they just show them all parting ways, and that’s it.
Of course, we know now that Quicksilver was only in the film to stick it to Marvel, who put the character in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Apparently he was originally going to be Juggernaut. And yes, movie studios are that petty. Everybody and every thing is that petty.
And just for kicks, here’s the Honest Trailers version of Days of Future Past.
The 5th of November Was Yesterday, But…
I love V for Vendetta the movie. I haven’t read the comic, and I’m sure it’s fine, but I love the movie! And Cinema Sins gives it a real thrashing!
And for once, I’m actually kind of pleased with their work. They still count sins for really minor things, but they did a great job this time pointing out flaws in logic, plot and story. Good job, team! And now I’m in the mood to watch V for Vendetta again…
Signs Remains My Favorite M. Night Shyamalan Movie
But let’s tear it apart anyway with Cinema Sins!
That was a good video, but honestly, is it really a sin when the movie is doing exactly what it’s meant to do? The whole point of the film is that all of these coincidences come together in the finale for victory, and foreshadowing these coincidences is what makes them work. Is it really a cinema sin to use foreshadowing in your film? Don’t we want things like foreshadowing in our movies?
Once upon a time, Signs was my favorite movie. I saw it in theaters with my brother and loved it! Though I haven’t watched it in probably a decade…
