Hello! I brought you a piping hot new episode of Movies with Mikey!

This one (obviously) took a little longer than I thought it would. Part of that is just dealing with the consistent hell of renovating our destroyed house. There's not books for "So, Insurance Sure Screwed You Over, Huh?" 

Wait. Maybe I'll write that book!

I remember watching Birds of Prey originally. I immediately was talking with Teara on how we could turn it into an episode. That notecard's been on the board for more than a year! 

Hilariously, what I never thought about is all the ridiculous context that comes with it. I wasn't expecting to close out this video talking about Brick Shithouse Batman (tm). 

This episode talks about 140,000 things! I tried to stay vigilant while we were building this to keep the whole thing breezy and informative. I truly hope this is the episode people have been waiting for. I really felt this one! 

Lemme know what you thought! (it might take a second viewing. There's kind of a lot to unpack)

-m, 

PS. Lots of stuff on the way! We shot TWO Deep Dives and have the next MwM halfway done! AMA

Welcome back, Mikey! So sorry about the house and insurance nightmare! I hope it gets resolved ASAP!

BoP was a deeply weird, absolutely bonkers movie and I love that it just WENT for it. It doesn't make a lot of sense, and I still kinda hate that they used Cass Cain's name for an almost entirely different kind of character, but... it's also amazing the movie got made and released and bless everyone involved for that happening. It was the last thing I saw in a theater, and I'm cool with that.

BoP was one of the last movies the wife and I caught in the before-times, and we loved it.... so fun and energetic.

Great video. Although the big thing that I've taken away from is the huge relief in finding I'm not the only one that eats Dan Olson videos as comfort food.

It breaks my heart how little praise this movie got. It's everything I wanted from a smaller-scale super hero movie. Looking forward to your video on it.

BoP was amazing and funny and had so much heart in it. I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats.

My go-to Dan Olson watch over and over for comfort episode is the Book of Henry, but Suicide Squad is a solid choice for that.

His videos have dragged me out of my feelings of utter detachment more times than I can remember. I also love that Dan is (from what I’ve seen over the years) quite supportive & willing to do all sorts of collaborative stuff w/ other channels, including but not limited to: Maggie Mae Fish, FilmJoy (obviously), Hbomberguy, and more. You love to see it.

Dude, his Book of Henry video (not the reaction vlog post, the other one that’s hilariously savage) NEVER gets old. Every time I re-watch it I’m reminded that Book of Henry was [somehow?] an actual movie made by actual Hollywood studios that thought, “ahh yes, the log-line for this story was perfectly normal and the script was totally sound from a narrative standpoint; looks like we got a high-potential earner on our hands.” Like…just WTF was *everybody involved in that production* thinking the whole time? I don’t take joy in rooting against filmmakers or anything like that. I love almost every actor/actress in that movie but…well, I’m preaching to the choir, I suppose. Cheers.

It's more recent, but his evisceration of Doug Walker has become my comfort viewing. If only because I find it deeply cathartic as a former Nostalgia Critic fan.

This was an extremely cool video, I loved all the context, and I also loved being able to get a sense of what Birds of Prey is, since I can't actually watch it myself. I'm also glad you brought up the good parts of the Zack-verse, but here's my two cents on it that I don't really see people talking about: it is hard for me to watch the new DC movies now, because so many of their films (Birds of Prey, Snyder Cut Justice League, the next Suicide Squad, the next Batman) are now hard-R films that are too brutally violent for me to watch. And that sucks. I wish that I could see these movies, as a big superhero comics fan, and I wish that more kids could see these superhero movies too.

I love Birds of Prey and this was great! Just a brief accessibility note for the future: the flickering film effect looks really cool but for some people (like me) it can cause migraines. I still loved the video, but just a heads up!💙

I love this movie! Stoked you did a video on it!

I hope there's a sequel that sees her and the team start an underground psychiatry racket bringing down the patriarchy. 'Harley Quinn, Medicine Woman' practically writes itself.
