I guess I'm just flashing back to when they launched the current site design and feedback was overwhelmingly negative. Everyone hated it. It was supposed to be unreadable and structured terribly and the worst thing ever. The AV Club survived that (although the content here certainly isn't what it was five years ago,…

So maybe I'm on the payroll of Big AV Club, but I'm going to wait and see how the transition goes before I mourn the death of the site. Kinja certainly isn't the best, but people seem to hate Disqus as much or more, so it seems like a lateral move. The loss of nested comments is annoying but it hardly seems like the…

That's what I figure. I mean, I get all the gloom and doom, but the AV Club has provided me with so much great content over the years that I'd be foolish to just walk away and never come back. People said the current design was terrible and would tank the site, and it's still here. The content might not be what it…

The AV Club is burning down around us and MANlMAL is still sticking to his talking points. I think I speak for everyone when I say I hope you survive the transition.

These are all obviously just my opinions. There are no facts here.

Sure.

Clark goes after Batman because he's taking the law into his own hands and using excessive force. The first Superman scene shows him taking the law into his own hands and using excessive force. And if you want to show how they're different, maybe don't make your whole movie about how the public doesn't know if they…

I think he ends up in prison because he throws a Pulitzer Price winning journalist off a building and genetically engineers a monster that rampages through the city.

Right click the image and select Inspect. Add the style display: none to the css for that element and bingo. But yeah, you really shouldn't have to do that. I assume it's showing up fine in some browsers, but it's weird that Chrome would be one with issues.

That's fair. I guess after two or more seasons where the show was boring most of the time I'm just happy to be really enjoying it again.

Liked for the second paragraph, not the first. The show might be playing fast and loose this season but it's far more entertaining than the last two seasons at least.

I was specifically talking about the race change. You can certainly hate any casting decision for any reason.

Ah, OK. I had forgotten that detail.

Painting, actually. Tom Jane is in the process of painting a very cool Dark Tower piece when we first see him, if memory serves.

Time for a re-read! I'm working my way through the series for what is probably the third time, but it's been years since the last time so a lot of the little details are fuzzy.

I don't think she'd be any less menacing a threat if you cut out the weird racist dialect. The worst part is, it sticks around. Susannah falls back into it when she does things that channel the Detta side of her personality, and it never stops feeling weird and unnecessary.

You know what? You're right. I apologize. That was completely uncalled for.

It's fascinating what some people decide to be pedantic about.

All the comments about the edits being terrible are crazily hyperbolic. Don't worry about tracking down the original.

Fandom's a helluva thing.
