Slim chance it’s a parallel Eart to the mainline Justice League and will be folded into what continuity exists after the upcoming Flash movie (prediction: it will be a debacle despite trying to be more interesting about the multiverse than the really lame attempts to grapple with it in the MCU so far).

That’s my position as well.. that they are going to do all these “separate” universes and then use Flashpoint to add cohesion.. (and either bring in the more “popular” ones into the main timeline/universe or just explain that yes, there are multiple universes and leave it at that with no folding.. so this way they can…

“Eart” - that’s a good typo. I’m going to refer to Earth as Eart from now on.  :)

That's the middle East filter, would be a bit more orangey for South America.

“Heroes don’t kill people!”

Is it just me, or is that colour grading really hideous to anyone else? Like, it’s really ugly, akin to the “píss filter” video-games used to use back in the mid to late 00s...

The saddest thing about this is, there’s no reason for GameStop to exist in 2022. GameStop knows this as well. More and more people are becoming comfortable buying and downloading games through an online store. Nothing good is going to come from any of this for any party.

I’ll be generous: Given this...I say Giant Bomb’s got 18 months before it goes under.

Does anyone else feel like was sort of inevitable after Brad, Vinny, and Alex left?

Yeah, Star Wars is renown for great acting /s.

Fact: Black woman publicly receives racist threats online.

Fact: Disney criticizes those threats.

Insane Theory: This is Disney damage control...something something... Russian bots... something something... I’m sure SOME people... something something... but it’s Disney’s fault because I don’t like TLJ... something…

When a black actress is receiving death threats en masse from racist, misogynistic assholes, I literally could not care less about whether or not it’s a “problem” for Disney.

One thing about The Expanse. Almost everybody in the belt is mixed race and they don’t speak plain old American English.

So say we all.

The fuck are you talking about? This is not some weird false flag. The internet is full of racists but apart from those everyone seems to like Obi Wan Kenobi's show.

TLJ had neither idiotic writers nor incompetent directors - though I suspect its mixed reception was less due to Russian bots than to the actual loudmouth fringe of conservative dipshits in the fandom.

This kind of absolutely bizarre nonsense from a loud tiny piece of the fandom is strong evidence that moderation of communities will help push antisocial members of the fandom out. I look forward to seeing io9 engage in such moderation here and in their Facebook usage.

“I can believe there would be a sasquatch with a laser crossbow, a giant slug who runs a criminal empire, pig-men, and a small blue elephant who plays in a band, but BLACK humans? How would that happen?”

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

As reported here, this doesn't make legal or logical sense. In America, to get damages in a defamation case the defamation needs to be false. Either Johny Depp wasn't an abuser and he gets money, or Heard wasn't lying about the abuse and she gets money. For them to both get damages doesn't make sense unless there's…
