I’m terrified of the people this show could inspire. I miss the days when that idea seemed outlandish.

“Squirrel Girl, for instance, traditionally has no hope of taking someone like Thanos or the Hulk on in a fight”
I believe the saddest part about this is various companies find methods to capitalize off of sexual assault. Women shouldn’t have to pay a large fee every year to have access to a service that stops something happening which shouldn’t even be happening in the first place.
Here’s an anti-rape gadget that I think would work pretty well: robust educational curricula regarding consent and sexual autonomy.
Sorry, the formula worked back then because people weren’t concerned about PC.
I just came to say: this picture is at the Batman lego movie premiere... so, in the summer? And he wore a knit cap and a scarf with a t shirt?
If I believed it (I don’t), this might actually be a good thing for the WB to consider, given the success they’ve had with auteurs in the past (Burton, Nolan). But if this is the case, then why on earth would you continue to have a cinematic universe? Silo the characters into their own franchises the way you’ve done…
Seriously. The selective memory is astounding. And, while I enjoyed WW, there’s still Suicide Squad, BvS, MoS, not to mention all the nonsense around WB’s DC film slate announcements and de-announcements. Nope, I’m not convinced by this guy’s perspective, and I’ll wait til I see his mind-blowing cinematic exploration…
Probably Warner playing the long game.
Sure, Disney/Marvel is about the universe first and the director second, but that doesn’t mean that the director has no input on anything. The Guardians of the Galaxy films are clearly from James Gunn’s vision. Thor: Ragnarok appears to take a lot of inspiration from Taika Waititi. Heck, even the Russo Brothers have…
WB severely messed with David Ayer’s Suicide Squad, has hired and fired several Flash directors, fought with Patty Jenkins to not include the No Man’s Land scene, seems to have driven Ben Affleck away from directing a Batman movie, and appears to be significantly reworking Zack Snyder’s Justice League. But the latest…
By “Director Driven” do they mean how they like to drive directors out with there bad decisions?
Seems to me that Disney is proving that not focusing on the director is the better way to go. A bad director will drag down an entire franchise. Disney is putting the film ahead of the director and will pull a director off a picture when it looks like they are doing a bad job, like we are seeing with Star Wars movies.…
Takeaway: There are some dumb MFers at ESPN. Seriously, one person can’t see the difference between the Lin incident (which involved an unwarranted racial slur
- that might have been an accident, sure) and a label (supremacist) ostensibly based on a person’s actual past activities?

These are the same people who consistently conflate “calling out racism” with “being racist against white people.”
Our country has moved so far to the right that people who openly call themselves “conservatives” are basically authoritarians. It isn’t about consistency in the law, it’s about using your power to silence people you don’t like.
So it doesn’t matter how professional you, how educated you may be, if you’re conservative (the “stick to sports” crowd) you still misunderstood the first amendment? (which is ironic)
It’s not “not politically correct” to like the Punisher, but like you said, he’s not a nice dude who feels justified in killing those he deems dangerous, so when your local police force uses his skull symbol...things get awkward.
Just needed a little tweaking, there.
