accidental unmasking

More Batgirl and a glimpse of Catwoman and Batman [Birds of Prey][Hall of Fame]

by

After I upgraded the existing posts last week it’s time to make a post about the exciting scenes I haven’t even posted about …so far.

I’m talking about the “Birds of Prey” TV show.

 

As I mentioned… there are only a few Batgirl scenes in it as Barbara Gordon is actually Oracle in this show… for most of the time.

But there are some interesting flashbacks in the show’s very first episode.

Well, I think the Catwoman costume is ok. I mean it was just meant to be on screen for some seconds so they didn’t put up a really big effort or budget to make a great one.

But it’s so sad that there once was such a Catwoman and such a Batgirl in Gotham and the show actually starts later on without them. 🙁  #scriptcrime

These two (and more) during a full TV show? That would be insanely awesome… maybe one day…

But it’s nice that we get some more Batgirl footage in this one, even the fight in the hallway is cut pretty badly so it’s hard to see much.

The highlight is actually the scene where Batgirl slams into the wall.

If you check that in slow-motion you can actually see how her cowl lifts up quite a lot and she is in danger of getting unmasked! #stuntwoman

Well, as I mentioned in the post where she actually was unmasked…. it is incredibly dangerous to run around with such an unsecured mask.

But I guess it wouldn’t have made much difference in this case as the Joker already knows that Barbara is Batgirl as he shows up at her apartment … #uncool

And it’s a nice bonus to have that self-unmasking in another flashback scene as well!

Well… pretty insane/irresponsible to unmask herself in a public place like that… even at night.

Perhaps she was aware that this was only happening in that mind-control game? Hard to say…

I like how her bat symbol is the only flashing color in that scene… very iconic/symbolic.

The masked, female jewel thief and the hostage

by

I stumpled upon this scene by accident. I watched the whole movie as I knew that there would be a masked woman who takes another woman hostage.
It was said that this movie would be a german version of Thelma and Loise.
But I didn’t expect much of it.
This time I was really happy about the outcome.
A little introduction: A woman enters a guarded jewel store, just “masked” with big sunglasses so they would let her in.
She then robs the store and escapes. A security guard follows her and she puts on a bandana to mask herself.

I know nearly no one here …besides me…. understands the german audio, but there isn’t much dialogue in these 4 minutes (except at the end).
But if you want some parts translated, I can do it.

Some more explanations: The hostage always plays on a smartphone when she gets a panic attack, which she had pretty often in the last time.
That’s why she wants to play. Not exactly a safe thing while driving….  😉

Well, I really enjoy this tussle and the resulting, surprising/accidentally unmasking, even it could have been shown better.
But I love their reactions to the unmasking. And the bandana/sunglasses coverage was a pretty good one!
