I am literally so happy to see even a hint of a movie fight again!!!! Miss all the peeps who are missing, hope the Pandemic stank leaves this channel and things get back to normal!!!! Love you guys!

[@MichaelTerndrup]

Love that you guys are back in studio seems crazy that we have lost so many people from screen junkies since the last time you were in studio

[@ag9496]

What happened? Did people leave?

[@cea6770]

This is just of the top of my head so may be inaccurate. Hal Rudnick (who already had other projects and was more of an associate member even before covid), Dan Murrell (left to do a solo YT channel), Roth Cornet (left for some undisclosed project?), Joe Starr (left for D&D beyond), Ed Greer and Roxy Stryar (like Hal, were associate members and left about a year before covid), and ending Movie Fights has made it seem like much less people are there. These roles were largely filled by Lon and Danielle (who I feel like were ~associate members, then became full members around the start of covid), and Eric and Kim.

When you peeps said MOVIE FIGHTS I almost teared up! I miss those so much. They played such an important part of my life during my film studies a couple of years ago. Just taking the time to say i love you guys and seeing you all together in one room is just too much *sniff sniff*

[@SuperFlik]

I like how half way through the commentary a Movie Fight just breaks out.

[@Chrismayn]

OMG guys!!! The JOY that you are not even trying to hide for being in the studio is the most beautiful hour of KZbin I’ve watched for a long time!!! Welcome back!!!

[@kylemayberry5073]

More Movie Fights please! They were so fun and even this off-the-cuff version was very satisfying, plus I miss seeing y'all bring on different film buffs and industry friends to goof around

[@Demanufactur3r]

Back in the studio, yeeeeesss!! Audio and visuals do need a little extra work, but I'm happy to see you guys in this setting again!

[@laramineville]

Aw man, I never abandoned SJU throughout the pandemic, but I guess I never realised how their in-studio interaction makes it all sooo much better 😍 I just hope this doesn't result in a significantly lower amount of Ms. Kim Taylor-Foster 🥺

[@SnukeMaster20]

When she’s on they should reframe the shot so it’s the three at the table and then Kim in the top right corner in a video window

[@JeremyGBranch]

Kim is a great addition.

[@DasFoyer]

@@SnukeMaster20 Or they could put a monitor into the studio and show her on that.

[@jenanncreates1033]

@@DasFoyer I saw an improv show when one actor couldn’t be there in person. They gave her presence by taping an iPad to the face of a mannequin, and a PA rolled it around the stage. It was great.

[@kellys5949]

I’ve missed this so much! I would love the return of movie fights and hopefully SJU in studio. I’m sure I’m the only one who remembers this but possibly days before lock down I think Joe lost a bet(?) and promised to dance an entire episode? The world shut down and the bit was lost and I’ve been holding on to this memory for two years.

[@booksandtoox2978]

I cannot put into words just how excited I got when I saw you guys were IN AN ACTUAL STUDIO. And it looks so great, you guys! 🤩

[@laramineville]

Ooh, btw, another plus side of the pandemy: Ryan had a mic! Give Ryan a mic!!

[@heatherhavenhall8839]

Happy to see y'all back together! Technical note though as a longggg time viewer, Danielle is super quiet and Lon is pretty loud volume wise. We adjusted our volume the entire time and y'all are worth it, just fyi.

Yeah, I noticed the same!

[@Julian-Yuki]

We're back baby!!!! The fact that I can actually hear everyone with a decent mic and one at the time without weird overlap delays just make my day! Thank you guy.

[@lincolnlu9869]

I love the references still to Dan!

[@fedwyn]

I love that they genuinely parted in good ways. Many you have people leaving saying they are still friends but they never mention them again. Dan and the Screen Junkies guys still shout out to each other almost weekly

[@ellicel]

OMG! So glad you all get to be together again! Loved the theme song, btw!

[@eshna2012]

I didn’t realize how much I missed “being” in a studio until this video started. Congrats on the new digs guys 🥳🥳🥳

[@MoProblems360]

There's no Movie Fights without Owl Nation. Hoot! Hoot!

[@Quasimofo23]

So happy to see the gang reunited! Of course more movie fights!

[@CharlessMovieChannel]

1st) Welcome back to the studio. I'm gonna miss seeing you guys in the little windows on your computer screens but it's nice to see you guys back in the studio. 2nd) Can't wait for Movie Fights to start up again 3rd) I'm glad Lon brought up the "500 Followers" Critique that really drove me up a wall cuz a lot of people were making fun of/ snarking at that. The film even says, "Real Fringe Types." So yes, I have more then 500 followers on KZbin/ Twitter but the difference here is that The Riddler's Followers were ready to buy matching outfits/ get weapons/go assassinate a elected official. That's the scary thing and that's the monumentalness of that 500 Followers, These weren't normal followers. These were mentally disturbed individuals.

[@Rastley85]

Absolutely. And likely mostly local followers too, or willing to travel to Gotham.

[@mojoproductions6799]

Ayyy!!! First time in studio since 2020. Congrats guys! Glad y’all made it

[@doctorpi3340]

Great to see you guys back at the studio. Also, next week is Deep Water. The not erotic, not thrilling, erotic thriller.

[@ryanhau1073]

personally think more Batman Movies should be Crime Thrillers

[@VernoMusic]

NEEDED THIS! Glad to see y’all back and “in person.” Get Ryan the mic, cowards!!!!

[@theMoerster]

HA! You have to commute again! Glad to see you back in the studio.

[@Provigilman]

I still loved the show in Zoom era, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't 1000% hyped to see you back in the studio!

[@ledagocheva1821]

I honestly burst out laughing when Spencer said "Tila Tequila" - what a blast from the past. Love to see you guys back in studio :)

[@malkav81]

I love the studio, but I'm sad we won't have a chance of Taco cameo anymore.

[@ericgrooms3011]

Glad to have the interpersonal connection back with the team together in person! Technical note - I'm not a camera expert, but it seems to me like the 3-shot (the full panel shot, however you title that) needs to be brightened a bit, maybe a bit of contrast? I don't know, the 1-shots of each panelist looked good, but the big shot looked less saturated, or darker, or flatter, or something like that and I figure there may be an adjustment that could make it pop just a little more. I'm gonna stop talking now - I hope this is helpful feedback in some way and not just annoying. Love ya Fandom Entertainment!

[@SatanicHorse]

it's also much too wide which lets them seem weirdly small, almost like a shot in a Wes Anderson movie.

[@KeithGYu]

@@SatanicHorse it is weirdly wide. I'll never unsee it.

[@Demanufactur3r]

You're right! Audio levels are also a bit all over the place. I'm sure there'll figure it out eventually.

[@lauristonbrewster9097]

Maybe the wide shot is trying to emulate the ambiance of The Batman.

Amazing you guys are back in the studio 👍🏻

[@Tzgrey77]

Truly worth the wait! Loved it and love you guys! Thanks for keeping me sane ❤️ !

[@Calzaki]

The Bat-Basement looks like an abandoned subway station and there are a lot of urban myths around those. I think the most famous American one that's real is the station underneath Hilton Astoria in New York I think? Which FDR used to sneak in and out on a train so he could turn up without people seeing him in a wheelchair.

Welcome back (to the studio) Honest Trailers!!! Like that the background has Mask of the Phantasm movie poster vibez!

[@robbies1914]

Seeing an in studio Honest Trailer Commentary is one of the best things to happen in the past couple years!! There's just nothing like the live quick witted Screen Junkies banter when you guys talk about movies. Brings me back to pre 2020 when every week I'd count down the hours until the latest Commentary was live. Can't wait for the future again, hopefully Dan (and Joe and Roxy!) is It Follows marching towards the studio still to guest star in some episodes in the future

[@oneopinion6806]

The thing that surprised me most about the Joker moment at the end was up to that point the movie had given me the impression that Batman hadn't actually gotten anyone "arrested" so far. I was feeling like he was more of a no-kill Punisher. That maybe the Riddler was the first time he was in a more protracted engagement with the criminal world. It would certainly gel with the police response of him being this maniac being let into crime scenes. I do agree with Lon the deleted scene, while fun, would have dragged the film down further and beat us over the head more with the "Riddler is you taken 1 step further!" theme.

[@ashlindavis4144]

Been a fan for years guys thanks

[@Boowl29]

No way you guys are back!! Congratulations! Awesome.

[@jenanncreates1033]

I like the set design (are those “Make It or Break It” plates!?). Though the wide shots feel so far away after Zoom!! It’ll take time to get used to it again.

[@pigmiwarriorentertainment274]

There were at least 3 more graphics including 'Dan's Infinite Sadness' and 'Joe The Comedy Ninja' but in all fairness, despite the amount of work I put into them, they weren't very good. That 'Snark Attack' one only really worked with the Spencer audio that was always too quiet to hear and it made me cringe seeing how bad it looked after all these years. There was a time when I was really into making them but I can't imagine doing one now

[@plenn9888]

You guys are great welcome back!

[@jaebee10]

Wowww its crazy too see you all back in the studio! Its litttt

[@bluesdjben]

[@el-chupanibre]

I literally came to the channel to watch old episodes for nostalgia reasons bc I randomly remembered and missed movie fights the other day and I watch this episode. PLEASE bring back a movie fight every once a while again. They were so great and I miss them so much. This channels commadradery and desire and passion to just discuss movies and shows and light heartedly debate those topics was one of the best pieces of entertainment one can watch. And btw, gotta say out of those 3... uhhh.. shark boy... I guess. Hahah

[@patrickatchley4279]

It’s so great seeing you all together again. Thank you for all the years of great content. 🙏✌️

[@edixon1995]

Great to see you back in studio. Yes, bring back Movie Fights. Also the audio seems low

[@jackcade8790]

Grimdarkest Batman is Batman Beyond Batman. Yes the animated show. He retired because he had a heart attack and had to draw a gun on someone. He has driven everyone he ever knew away. Everyone he ever worked with hates him. Literally his only friend is his dog. I don't think it's confirmed in story, but his dog, Ace is probably also named after a 12 year old girl who's hand he held as she died. And she may or may not have been abused by the Joker.

[@fariseb]

A full-throated welcome back. Congratulations, all!!

[@zomfies]

Pattinson has said that he would only want Robin in this world if it's literally a kid, but I think they've laid the groundwork with the failed Wayne orphanage, Riddler's backstory, etc: Bruce takes Bella's advice and re-engages with the city's problems in his public persona, and one of the big ways is taking care of orphans; he gets to know Dick Grayson as both orphanage patron Bruce Wayne and as the Batman. Dick's seen his parents killed as the result of some underworld bullshit and has become obsessed with uncovering the culprit; Bruce wants to help him get closure, but now after this first movie he also has a real good reason for wanting to guide an obsessive orphan boy away from the kind of path the Riddler took. So maybe by the end of the movie Bruce takes Dick in as his ward, and because he's still such an oddball public figure it's seen as just an eccentric publicity stunt, the way people look at celebrities who adopt children from impoverished foreign nations - or, more positively, people are sympathetic to the idea because they know both saw their parents murdered, etc.

[@zomfies]

I do think that the Robin thing works better when Dick's going to go out and risk his life trying to catch the people who killed his parents whether Batman helps him or not, so Bruce becomes like a crime fighting version of the parents who'd rather you drink or do drugs at home, under supervision . . .
