Seconded. Still love Guerrero, but a lot has been asked of April Bowlby in these first few episodes of the season, and she is really stepping up. There is something extra endearing about Rita Farr. It’s like Caulder actually saved her from becoming a Joan Crawford type monster by making her into an actual monster.

I think it’s immediately clear that that role is not being played by an actual child. Shapiro is doing a good job, but it’s obviously a grown-up playing a lethally annoying child. Of course, Dorothy should be about, what, 60 by now? 80?

It seems hard to imagine that Ben Affleck, Jeremy Irons, Amy Adams, JK Simmons and Diane Lane would put up with abusive behavior and unprofessional behavior any more than the Avengers cast would —who weren’t quite such huge stars yet when the initial Avengers movie was made. Affleck in particular is an accomplished

You don’t piss off teamsters

A lot of it is a money thing. Falcon & The Winter Soldier is reported to have a budget that is comparable to an MCU theatrical movie, and since it a completely finished product before the first episode airs, they don’t have quite the breakneck schedule of a traditional network TV show that shoots while it airs week to

Any show with Gina Torres and Goran Višnjić at the top of the call sheet (or anywhere on it, really) must live!

They have nothing else to do. Like everyone else, they can’t work, and aren’t likely to for a while. They are bored, and believe it or not, some of them actually enjoy these incessant reunions. We are being fed a barrage of reunions, but they only actually participate in one or two of them.

Well, that might be OK, but I think that this version of Ralph gets his elasticity from exposure to Dark Matter, not a Gingold serum. Unfortunately, Sawyer did a great job playing the part, so a casual recasting seems less likely, although a face change could be explained storywise knowing Dibny’s shady past.

Well, they do have to find a way to explain Ralph Dibny’s disappearance since Hartley Sawyer is now radioactive in real life. Too bad, because I was actually enjoying Sue Dearbon, and now what do they need her for?

I’d be really surprised if Craig Robinson, Demi Moore, or Peter Stormare were hurting for cash so badly right now

Actors like need to work. So do crew members, and production designers, etc.

Is it really that confusing? Is it that essential that we know who is streaming which DC movie at every given moment. I actually feel OK knowing that If HBOMAX doesn’t have the DC movie that I want to watch at the moment, they probably will again eventually, and maybe I will find it on DC Universe, or Netflix or

Well, it was JL Dark after all, but I thought it was just a bit much to end the continuity with Wonder Woman and other heroes mutilated into creepy, Apokoliptan cyborg forms. That was a bit much. I mean, you don’t do that to Wonder Woman unless you are going to undo it pretty quickly. It was unsettling to just end it

It would be unfair to judge Schumacher solely on Batman and Robin. Even he has admitted that he lost control over that movie, and the toy companies had an inordinate amount of influence over the final product. Ultimately, he was not an auteur but a solid commercial movie director with strong visual flair. It’s not

Well, you figured it out. Why couldn’t she?

I mean, this is intriguing, but WHAT IS HAPPENING with this DC Movie continuity?!?!?!?

First things first: Spell-check your headline: Michael Keaton, not Micheal.

Star Wars did a lot for his finances, which he acknowledges, but nothing for his career which was essentially put in a holding pattern. They took and up and coming actor who was making the kind of movies he had aspired to make with people like The Coen Brothers, and relegated him to a depth-free 3rd banana role. He is

That seems to be the general consensus.

Well, it’s not a coincidence that the first Captain America movie was directed by the guy who made The Rocketeer (1991).
