Leonid Brezhnev was a big fan of American Westerns.

So... I hear that China is sympathetic to Russia. I have also observed that China appears to pretty much call the shots regarding corporations in America. China says jump... corps ask how high.

I wonder what is going on here? Why all the wokesters putting the hammer down?

Sounds like Russia got a damned good deal, How can we get Hollywood to do the same here?

How many Batman movies have there been? Will this really punish Putin at the thought of his people not seeing Batman on schedule?

Or is this one really special, because it is called “The Batman”, instead of just “Batman”?

Never saw any of them, but I did watch the TV show in the 60’s and early 70’s

"The Rifleman" was a big hit in Russia. Chuck Conners, Steven Segal...what is it with Russians that they seem to like manly men?

***How many Batman movies have there been?***

If you will remember back in 1966, the Batman show was so popular they made a movie of it.

Before that movie could be released, those who had made the old Batman 1943 serials, pulled out their old films, recut them for movie release. So the original Batman film was the old Black and White BATMAN.

The west’s most powerful weapons against culture and morality unilaterally paused. Only removal of all nukes from Europe could equal it.
