Ben Affleck Reveals The Title For The Upcoming Batman Solo Film

Ben Affleck has given us a critical detail about his upcoming standalone Batman movie: the title. "The movie I think is going to be called ‘ The Batman ,’" Affleck told the Associated Press during the press junket for "The Accountant" (opening October 13). "At least that’s what we’re going with right now. I might change it… That’s about all I got right now. We’re working on the script, the script is going well, I’m really excited about it.” Not much is known about "The Batman" project, for which Affleck will return as The Dark Knight after playing the character in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" (and providing a cameo for "Suicide Squad").

Movie Review: #AMERICANHONEY

Rama is back with another review for us. Startling Much of Andrea Arnold’s AMERICAN HONEY reminds me of Larry Clark’s 1995 film, “ Kids ,” struggling adolescent years, but AMERICAN HONEY is much more nuanced in that on one hand you have this somewhat social commentary about how we are the richest nation in the world and yet so many of our teens live in poverty and they have to hustle and do certain demeaning things just to get by, just to survive, just to feed themselves. On the other hand, you could see AMERICAN HONEY from the perspective of the characters and the impressive way in which they organize, you can see their selling and marketing skills, despite it being a scam and rough around the edges. They’re doing what wall street does basically but on a smaller, smaller, way smaller scale.
