Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “I’m going to be checking out Justice League vs. Teen Titans.” Blaine says, “You can’t go wrong with Alfred Hitchcock or Cary Grant, either individually or together, so I’m going with Suspicion.”
If anyone is wondering whether Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny is anywhere near as good as the original – it is not. It’s super-nice to see Michelle Yeoh in something again, but I kinda get the impression she’s not doing her own stunts any more ):
Justice League vs Teen Titans has a lot more, uh, adult content than I expected.
Thanks for the warning. I’ll pre-screen it before my kid gets to see it. We recently started in on Young Justice and we’re enjoying it so I thought this might be up our alley.
