I wonder if Facebook will innovate a way for me to use one app for both Facebook and Facebook Messenger.

If Snyder wanted to make a movie about Batman of murder and dour sun god, why didn’t he do Authority?

The only theme that Zack Snyder took from TDKR seemed to be “You’re not a real man unless you do X”. Which is essentially the theme of every Zack Snyder movie. The insecure penis-measuring between Supes and Bats in this film had me laughing out loud in the theater.

Marry me.

Which of these DC-titles am I excited by, that will almost certainly not exist 5 years from now, and will be said to never have counted in the first place? Yet again?

The hesitation at DC to capitalize on unexpected success like the new Batgirl really contrast with Marvel these days. Marvel is like “Oh, so you guys really like that Spider-Gwen. Okay, it wasn’t planned, but sure, give us a few months and you’ll have an ongoing series. And we’ll put her in team-up books too.” or “Oh…

Would love it if they had the robber pop out of the shadows, and all three of the Wayne’s complain “Really? Again?” and there’s already chalk outlines for them to flop into.

Yeah, the killer (Joe Ice?) starts grabbing Bruce’s mom’s pearls but can’t get them because, well, they’re painted on.

I’m always perplexed by people who hate Snyder/Man of Steel but somehow also want Grant and company to exist in the same shared universe. Like what sorta crazy dissonance is going on. I say its a bloody good thing they are separated and stay separated.

“What is this... ‘joy’ of which they speak, Grandfather?”

Ah sure. Tony’s ability to demean and belittle his colleagues is never a surprise; I just literally didn’t realize that’s what he was saying.

Last year they had a free month promotion when Avengers 2 came out. I would not be surprised if they did it again for Civil War, if you wanted to try it out.

It's worth noting that it's only about $6 a month if you buy a year at a time.

3) Bruce Wayne is basically Lex Luthor.

It doesn’t instill me with much confidence in Gadot’s performance that they’ve been trying really hard not to show her talking.

The same reason you don’t make a movie about a man who lives only in the city and call it “Tarzan” and the same reason you make a movie about a guy who’s not brilliant and call it “Sherlock Holmes.” If you don’t want a guy who lives in the jungle then you don’t want Tarzan. If you don’t want a guy who’s brilliant,…

CW is Silver Age while the movieverse is Jim Lee’s grimdark, Image-infused, overdesigned, Nu-52.

I have a friend who used to be a blackout drunk. One day when he came to, he realized he had been in a fight. His friends told him he had started it and that the other guy was hurt, too. You know what he did? He stopped drinking. In all the years subsequent to that — and they’ve been hard — he never picked up a drink.

Should definitely have Stiletto, by Daniel O’Malley, on that list. It’s the sequel to The Rook, which is one of the best pieces of fantasy I’ve read in years.
