We reviewed The Batman as sequel to Twilight, a fun joke refereeing to one of the stars that was born from the vampire love story. But to be fair there was two starts born out of that blood sucking union. Kristin Stewarts career simmered down for a moment but then came back in full force. Some would say Spencer is the film that defines her greatness as a performer. We are all about greatness here, and what better way then to look a...

Riddle me this!
