2) If batman was from the future the whole time how did he breathe air? I have confidence that the movie make some degree of sense, but like....how was anyone secretly from the future when they weren't moving backwards with respirators?

They need respirators while they're moving backwards, but once they're as far back in the past as they want to be, they can turn around and start moving forwards again, respirator-free. Assuming they have access to a temporal direction swapping machine.

Tenet is a terrible movie and Nolan should reflect on some of his choices.

Started watching Mare of Easttown. Two episodes in and I'm sold. A bit too many characters and it's not easy to figure out relations between them so far, but I guess that's kinda one of the points of the series and it will get easier later on.

I finished the first season of Justified and just started episode 1 of season 2. I am certain I have seen all of the first season and I am now wondering whether I got even further than that. Don't understand why I quit then, because so far I'm really enjoying it.

I love westerns and this is a damn good one. I didn't even mind Raylan shooting someone in every episode  I think what really sells it is the excellent cast. It's the first American show I can think of that reminds me of some of those British shows where every episode even most of the one-bit guest stars are played by recognizable actors you know and love from other things.

I hope it keeps on going like this.

Not really sure why but I watched Ocean's 8 yesterday. It works fine. Nothing amazing. Just fine.

Yep.  It's as terrible as all the other Oceans movies.  I just don't like the whole genre of heist that goes exactly to plan.  When he remade it as Logan Lucky that seemed better... but was it?

We don't actually know if Neil is from the future, but either him or the Protagonist himself if Neil is from the past must have had some incredible supply of reversed oxygen to travel for years into the past.

I like the first one, but the whole genre has been ruined by Rick and Morty now anyway

Whoa, you're fast. Didn't you just finished BB few days ago? Justified has its ups and downs, but season one is definitely not the best, apart from a very tense finale.

Watched Aguirre, The Wrath of God since Fitzcarraldo put me in the mood, and again I'll refer to Veltigar's post from December about that one. Very good film, less meandering than the later film, with this wonderful symbol of a raft of men aimlessly sailing down the Amazon, their expedition progressively falling apart due to the madness of Aguirre and his desire for fame and power. The real life Lope de Aguirre is generally agreed by historians to have been a homidical maniac, and Kinski captures it -- though he and Herzog had wild arguments over just how "loud" to play him. Herzog mostly won, and I think all for the better. The quiet madness was very engaging.
