Now if only we can get a Superman movie by someone who loves Superman BUT recognizes that there's more than one way to tell a Superman story and realizes there's more than one kind of Superman.

Yeah but you're also kinda not the audience for that particular kind of show. Or at least you don't seem like it anyway. And by that I don't mean "You're not black". I mean I can't honestly see you two warming up to self-serious Blaxploitation. Parodies, humorous homages & pastiche and comedies maybe, but not like the…
I guess it's just okay to me. Like it was addictive, but the Flash is also addictive. The addiction means nothing.
I'm not surprised by this. But I was hoping it would at least be watchable. I'll still give it a chance.
StarHammer is the story of Evelyn Li, an aimless teen who's forced to take on the mantle of an infamous superheroine after inadvertently coming into possession of a powerful artifact.
Legion is my jam. It's not just what I want out of a superhero show, it's exactly what I want from any sort of show. I'm glad a project I had planned at the beginning of the decade never got off the ground. It would've just looked like pure garbage next to Legion.
I'm going to have to see if it's in the Minnesota library system. If not I'll hit up the used bookstores. Thanks for the rec.
The show's subtle but still noticeable shift from grounded superhero show to goofy sci-fi Blaxploitation is something I feel could've worked if you drop a few eps and give the whole series a couple more passes at the script level. And it would've still reached the sort of goals the show was going for.
I actually dig the performance for Diamondback. I don't like a lot of the individual character choices that they made. But the scenery chewing and sheer ridiculous nature of the guy feels like it could've easily fit with maybe a few more drafts and 2 fewer episodes.
That makes sense. I'm always hearing about how he pretty much walks away with the entire show. And I feel like I may have watched a slightly different show than everyone else where he and the others are shouldering the load as best they can, with often exceptional results.
I might need to read this Slash Maraud.
I'm one of the few people who wasn't overly wowed by Cottonmouth so I'm always wondering why people make such a big deal about him and his sudden exit. It's not that I don't think Ali's a great actor, I just didn't find his performance all that more compelling than anyone else's when he was still on the show.
I did love Lego Batman. I loved it for the fan service and also the production design, art direction, cinematography and lighting. But I also just loved it for the exploration of the mythos and our own relationship to it.
Oh! I did a Lego Batman and Logan double feature. And it's way more emotionally and thematically compatible than I thought it'd be. I can't think of a more appropriate choice for double feature among any of the current or even upcoming mainstream wide releases. Still need to see John Wick 2 though.
I've loved what I've read of New Super-Man. I haven't read much of it past issue #4 though. So I'm not sure what's going on anymore. Also I wonder if people from China feel like more recent issues are a better reflection of their culture. I remember reading that lots of Chinese nationals thought that the first few…
Heyo!
I'm apparently one of the few Millennials who genuinely loves the linear TV experience. As much as I dislike Comcast, I don't really care for the lineups of most of the skinny bundle cable-cutting services. So I guess I'll keep paying for Comcast.
"Love Accessory" from Clarence is underrated. In fact that entire show is filled to the brim with top-shelf pastiches that the whole world continues to sleep on.
It's not quite my bag. Too frenetic and goofy. Also a lot of the imagery kinda gets under my skin. I appreciate its existence though.
I was introduced to Bone through those old Disney Adventures magazines from the 90s. I also consider Bone a point of pride as an Ohioan given Smith being from Ohio himself and his dedication to making his hometown integral to the furthering of education and promotion of the medium.
