 - Was cinematography mispronounced as cinnamonnn-tography by accident or on purpose this week?

 - Which co-host felt a strength was Batman having the right amount of screen time & visibility (he's in the shadows as much as he needs to be, but when you need to see him...you can see him)?

 - Listed as a strength, what was clearly the central theme of this movie and the possible themes of the two sequels?
