I watched it last night. It’s better in the sense that it actually gives the characters motivation for doing what they do. Especially Steppenwolf, Cyborg, and Flash. A lot of overindulgence though. A lot. If I had film editing software and a tool to reverse slow motion scenes, I could probably cut at least an hour out…

I think this is a great rule. In law school, they gave us a word limit on papers - usually 10,000 words. Every professor made it clear that they would stop reading at word 10,001. Writing 10,000 words is easy when you just vomit up everything you know. Saying in 6,000 words what you just said in 10,000 is much more…

The original Justice League, like Batman v. Superman that came before it, were shit. This remake was ok - definitely not worth the extra effort. Here, WB’s bad habit of getting in its own way was eclipsed only by Zach Snyder’s terrible habits of overusing slow motion shots, including overly long lingering shots on…

You clearly don’t live in Texas, where spring break is this week for almost every educational institution. Oh yeah, and the mask mandate ended here last week.

Jason Isaacs. Thrawn is basically him from The Patriot but in space and blue.

Yea - this take seems like the most sensible take. If anything, him taking off is a reaction to how easy it was for him to try and kill the woman he loved.

Hmm. I don’t often disagree with showrunners. It’s their thing, after all. But White Vision very much is the Vision she said goodbye to in Wakanda. Wanda’s Vision in the show is just Wanda’s manifestation of the memory of the Vision who died in Wakanda. I agree that White Vision doesn’t have the emotional core that he…

This is what I thought would happen too, and it technically did. If Vision was actually just Wanda’s projection of Vision and he’s the one who restored White Vision’s memories, then Wanda, by way of Vision and the Mind Stone inside of her, actually did merge with and restore Vision’s memories.

Jesus Christ, is this really what we’re complaining about?? That people who make more than $80,000 per year won’t be eligible for a $1,400 check? We went from rightfully complaining about a racist, traitorous president who ignores a pandemic but gets his family vaccinated on the way out the door to bitching that the…

Not really. As someone who has had to wear bulky and not-quite-bulletproof body armor, mobility and fatigue are huge considerations in a conflict. Not getting shot has as much to do with wearing bullet resistant armor as it does with being able to maneuver effectively. Having a lightweight shield (15 lbs or less) that…

I have a better idea. Leave the tired Superman retreads (now featuring a Black Superman!) in the trash, and designate that same budget to a good story about an Actual Black DC superhero. John Stewart! Martian Manhunter! (not really Black, but that is his human form)

I’m on board with this theory. Since Bettany is 49, that puts most of the cast of any of the Marvel movies out of range for someone he “wanted to work with his entire life.”

My biggest issue with a lot of the black superheroes is that they’re derivative takes on existing heroes. If they’re not, they’re B-level heroes at best. Miles Morales, Black Captain America (The Falcon), John Stewart and War Machine are all thought exercises in “what if X hero were black instead?” On the other hand,…

I’m all for limited government, but helping citizens in a life-threatening situation is the bare-minimum, original social contract for which government was developed. I pay the king taxes and agree to his rules, he protects me from harm so I can grow my crops in peace. In more modern terms, I agree to stop siphoning…

Not populist, but there were definitely a lot more average joes buying into this before it became mainstream than other Wall St plays.

When we learned about the Great Depression in school, my teacher started out with “it pretty much happened because everyone realized at once that money is imaginary.” It sounds like the SEC and Wall Street spent this whole week trying to keep us from coming to that realization.

I think you should ask yourself what story regarding WSB has been huge this week. Have you seen any mention at all, besides the stories quoting Discord’s cancellation of their channel, which have mentioned hateful speech?

This is complete bullshit. Anyone who believes that the “hateful speech” that has gone on on WSB for the past nine years with no issue is suddenly banned TODAY because mods have “noticed the issue” are smoking crack or one of the actual Wall Street Bros who called up their friends at Discord to have the channel taken…

C’mon, we don’t need this family BS that they unsuccessfully tried to shoehorn into the FnF movies to make them less ridiculous and hollow. Give me some Netflix Daredevil fight scenes and some impressive tracking shots and I’ll be happy.
