Dude I live here and Calgary is, at best, a third-rate institution.

Canadians are not polite. We're just the jedi masters of passive aggression.

That will never, ever happen because there's no real credible opposition. Mulcaire might be tougher and better on the issues than his predecessor, but he lacks Uncle Jack's charm. As for the Dauphin? Don't make me fucking laugh.

To be fair, Calgary is a pretty terrible city that's fooled itself into thinking it's cool just cos it's got a cool mayor.

Honestly it wasn't the best. It leaned a lot more on combat than the other Gold Box style games, and that combat was often a crapshoot because your magic users would be hamstrung by the phases of the moon, which were themselves largely up to how much time you spent dicking around.

My strongest memory of Dragonlance is booting up Dark Queen of Krynn and purging the party of pre-made characters other than the dude who came with a dragonlance.

Yeah. His mom and dad had a monopoly on official Paddington Bear dolls. They paid for him to launch his career as an obnoxious, bigoted media tit, and apparently they own certain weird parts of the image rights associated with wellington boots. Paddington never wore them in the original books, but they were added to…

But the whole point is that this is the onion of buzzfeeds.

Paddington Bear is directly to blame for Jeremy Clarkson's media success, and I'm pretty sure Clarkson and his family still own certain weird, particular chunks of the rights.

I dunno how accurate my source is, but I've been told that the treatment they're using for Sandman is a tighter version of Preludes and Nocturnes that doesn't feature the horrific diner scene, cuts down on the detail for Dream's imprisonment, and it doesn't feature Martian Manhunter or Constantine.

I meant for shooting. One of those is probably gonna move and if Finke's right (She usually is) they're probably only up against each other because Batman v. Superman was delayed.

According to Finke the Metal Men were supposed to debut alongside the Suicide Squad, which would have been cool.

We have heard about it. WB announced that it was in development back in April during a round of Batman v. Superman marketing.

Nikki Finke is an incredibly bitter woman. She also comes from an era where you had to be proficient in Variety-speak to read half the trades and gossip blogs. It's not really that unusual.

Oh they'll be dumb as fuck, but they're definitely in the pipeline and these are pretty realistic windows.

He's not going to be headlining. That's part of DC's strategy. They're basically doing all teamups all the time.

Marvel's schedule's built around solo films where the team-ups are big events. So they're naturally gonna be way more cautious.

WB presumably loves the Suicide Squad because it's an excellent opportunity to have an ensemble of highly recognizable villains and characters that tend towards the darker end of the spectrum (since they want to dip their toes in Vertigo).

Several of them have already been announced duder.

WB is very interested in exploring odder and more offbeat corners of DC. They actually announced Shazam, Metal Men, and 100 Bullets in April, although Finke says Metal Men fell off their schedule.
