All right, the Batman, directed by Matt Reeves. Have you seen it? What do you think? You know, for me, this movie fell kind of flat. You know, the cinematography, the script, the acting, all pretty good. But, uh, not a lot of jokes. You know, I thought I was watching a comic book movie, and last I checked every comic book I've ever read is funny. Calvin and Hobbes, Garfield, the Farside, Fox Trott, Titanic, directed by James Cameron, I can sum up my thoughts on this movie with one word, Boring. One of the biggest blockbusters of all time, and there's not a single car chase in this movie. Can you believe that? And yeah, I'm aware that 98% of the movie takes place on a boat on water, but there were cars on that boat. I feel like the MCU is getting too joky. You know, everything's funny, everything's tongue-in-cheek, and nothing has stakes because of it. You know what would be cool is a comic book movie that's really, like, grounded and gritty. Has anyone ever done that

before?

There you go. Well, welcome, everybody here to the Classic Factory. Monday's show, it's winners and losers of the NBA weekend. Let's get right into it because I feel like there's so much to sort of dissect here. So, Trey, you've got to start it here. What's your big winner of the NBA weekend?

Kind of feels to me like all of the Eastern Conference contenders have had their moment in the sun this season. And to me, it felt like the Bucks had that turn over the weekend. A couple of it ain't over till it's over Bucks victories. Friday night against the Bulls, I was watching this one in a tent. Bucks down seven heading into the fourth quarter. And it was Janus who took over for the first half of this quarter. Eight points, two assists, a couple of rebounds in the first seven minutes of the quarter. I'm just telling the girls, look at this guy. He's just too big for anybody out there. And that's exactly what it was. It erased Chicago's lead right away. Help the bucks withstand a flagrant foul on Grace and Allen from Derek Jones, Jr. But the last five minutes, it was. It erased Chicago's lead right away. Help the Bucks withstand a flagrant foul on Grayson Allen from Derek Jones Jr. But the last five minutes, it was Drew Holiday in takeover mode.

He had 10 points in the last 444. He finished with 16 overall in the fourth quarter, added an
