Verity was a really long Drive | The Brad Files

I went into Verity knowing almost nothing about the book, the story, or where this movie was taking me.And after taking the trip…I think my GPS was right. 😂There were some interesting stops, a whole lot of road in between, and thankfully Josh Hartnett was along for the ride.No spoilers—just my immediate reaction to Verity, why it didn’t quite work for me, and one question for everyone who’s seen it:Did she or didn’t she?If you know, you know.🎙️ The Brad Files: VerityChase what you love. Ha-bye-bye.#TheBradFiles #Verity #MovieReview #JoshHartnett #BatSignalsFromTheMultiverse

Every comic in my collection has an end of life.Some end up on the wall. Some stay in the box. And some get traded away so something better can take their place.So it feels strangely appropriate that today’s comic is literally called END OF LIFE.I bought this Vertigo comic because I loved the cover…and then never actually read it.Today, it finally gets One Last Read.Does it earn a place in MY collection, or has End of Life reached the end of its life in my Collection of Chaos?Then it’s time for THE CHASE! I’ve made some serious progress on Batman: Knightfall, including Sword of Azrael, Shadow of the Bat, Detective Comics and an incoming Vengeance of Bane.What about your collection? Do you keep everything—or would you trade books you don’t care about anymore to build the collection you really want?One Last Read.One Final Decision.Chase what you love.Keep the Bat-Signal lit.

My brain is full of nerd shit… and you get to be the toilet paper.Welcome to The Brad Files!Brian and I entered DC's create-a-villain contest with our villain, Dark Web. We didn't win.Well… I finally read the introduction of the winning villain, Rhetoric, in Detective Comics — and let's just say I'm a little butthurt. 😂Then it's New Comic Book Day, which means it's time to figure out what's actually on my pull list… and what I'm inevitably going to buy that ISN'T on my pull list.Gambit. Knightfall. DNX. Amazing Spider-Man. My Worth the Space chases are starting to take over the way I buy comics.Bat-Question: Be honest — when was the last time you walked into your comic shop and ONLY bought what was on your pull list?Chase what you love.Ha-bye-bye!

I was NOT emotionally prepared for Heart of the Beast.Welcome to The Brad Files, where my brain is full of nerd shit and apparently you're the toilet paper!This time, I'm talking about the new Brad Pitt movie, Heart of the Beast, directed by David Ayer.I took my wife and daughter to see it, and what followed was an emotional roller coaster I genuinely wasn't expecting.We're talking incredible performances, beautiful cinematography, the importance of the theatrical experience, and a dog that deserves some serious award consideration.And yes, there was ocular perspiration. Lots of it.Today's Bat-Question: Did Heart of the Beast make you cry? Be honest. Was there ocular perspiration in your theater?The Brad Files is part of Bat-Signals from the Multiverse. No script.

My brain is full of nerd shit… and you get to be the toilet paper. Welcome to The Brad Files.Today we're talking about two of the greatest things ever created: Scotcheroos and chocolate milk.I'm an Iowa guy. I grew up on Scotcheroos, my grandma perfected them, and AE Dairy already makes some of the best dairy products around.But now they've done something ridiculous.SCOTCHAROO. CHOCOLATE. MILK.I had an unopened bottle, I'd never tried it, and there was only one reasonable thing to do: turn on the camera and experience it together.Does it actually taste like a Scotcharoo?Yes. Yes it freaking does.Welcome to The Brad Files — no script, no plan, just whatever happens to be bouncing around my brain.Chase what you love.Ha-bye-bye.
