I watched episodes 2 and 3. Yeah, that was an epic fight sequence that
tops the much hyped hallway fight sequence from the first season.

I'll be watching this too.

I watched:
Bate Motel - "Goodnight, Mother" - Already covered. OK episode.
Grim - "Silence of the Slams" - Already covered. OK episode.
Family Guy - "The Heartbreak Dog" - Boring episode from last week.
Batman (blu-ray) - 1989 Tim Burton movie with Michael Keaton as Batman
battling Jack Nicholson's Joker. I remember thinking at the time this
movie had bad special effects and was edited terribly. It's been many
years since I Watched the original Batflicks and watching it again after
all of these years I was again thinking this movie has bad special
effects and was terribly edited. I also noticed just how bad the acting
was too. Nevertheless, I liked it.
Batman Returns (blu-ray) 1992 sequel has Batman fighting Penguin (Danny
DeVito) and Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer). I've always preferred this
one to the first Batman movie and I think it still holds up as the
better movie but I couldn't help but notice on this viewing it is full
of plot holes. But somehow whenever Catwoman came on screen all the
plot holes didn't matter as much.
One thing I noticed in both movies is the number of times Batman
encountered the main villain *could* have taken them out but didn't all
the while killing henchmen left and right. Now that I think about it,
this was sort of the precursor for Arrow.
