I mean, is Black Adam high on my list of superhero movies that I am excited about anyway? it’s all relative, I guess. Am I upset about having Hawkman without Hawkgirl? Eh? That story can be so convoluted that wedging it in as a side-plot in a Black Adam movie seems unwise. Probably they probably made the right choice.…

That’s true, but they are still dancing to a song that didn’t exist before 1975, and I’m not really complaining because, you know, magic.

It’s probably just a nice card.

They have only shot about 25% of the movie, so their options were a bit limited. It’s Batman. Obviously it’s going to be dark.

Exactly. I don’t know the story form the book, but . . .

Nobody’s going to remake a big name flop. That is not how Hollywood works.

Do they not want ratings?

The general rule is always: If you didn’t see them die, they didn’t die, although on this show they might not have died even if you did see them die. Not to be a huge spoiler, but Abbey Lee (who plays Christina) is listed on IMDB as appearing on all 8 episodes, and I’m pretty sure that the trailer features her in…

How about that amazing and yet totally anachronistic “Movin’ On Up” opening sequence to the theme song from The Jeffersons? I mean, it’s about 15 years too early, and makes no sense because Leti and George should be traumatized, but what a delight to see Courtney B Vance strutting and Jurnee Smollett playing dress-up…

No, you are not.
I think it might be a Glory/Ben situation where neither one knows that they are also the other one, although in this case, they do know that the other exists.

There were definitely things in the preview that we have not seen in the episode yet. Ruby as a housemaid serving guests at a party is one, and there are several images of Leti in a dress we haven’t seen her wearing much an episode yet, although it is seen as one of the dresses in the closet at the mansion full of…

I wasn’t aware that Black Adam was aligned with the JSA, but that would be why Maxine Hunkle would be there.

Ugh! This.
I mean, it is the most overplayed song in the world. I interpreted it as him congratulating himself for his own triumphant return. So gross.

You should keep it that way.

Well, in fairness, it was probably DC & Warner Bros who stipulated that Cyborg be included in the League. I don’t think Snyder had the option to pick whichever characters he wanted. WB has been trying to get Cyborg into the Justice League since a version of Super Friends in the mid-80s.

I mean. . . . . . I’m interested in seeing this version of the movie. Snyder legitimately has a lot of talent in certain ways, but I gave up on him having any sense of good judgement whatsoever after seeing Sucker Punch. What was that crap? It was offensive, and I’m not a squeamish prude at all. I just like movies to…

I was beginning to think TDK was a guy who could turn himself into a K-Pop boy band, but this makes more sense.

Some people are just less vigilant about their own pronouns than others. Miller is kind of a weird person, but not unintelligent. I think it is clear to them that some, possibly most, people will never get the pronouns right, especially when the current status quo remains so grammatically problematic.

Alongside? I’m going to say slim to none, but with Keanu, you never really know. I wouldn’t have predicted more Matrix movies, but here we are.

I won’t accept him without pointy ears, and I saw no pointy ears.
