Prometheus belongs on one list and only one: Movies featuring such idiot characters that if even half of them had the IQ of a normal teenager, it would shift the story 180 degrees. Seriously, every character is an idiot, every character is either unlikable or contemptible and the premise basically removes all the fun…

Yeah I like Timm’s work a lot, but he was not the singular visionary behind TAS like a lot of people give him credit for. He has some weird things about the Batman mythos he is focused on, has a huge obsession with very specific female body types, and really likes to sex up stuff even if it seems out of place. He…

Your comment got me thinking about MCU stuff that hasn’t been dealt with at all in the post-Endgame era:

They can’t hang on to just Fassbender, McAvoy and Jackman if they’re going that route — it’s either the entire cast of Dark Phoenix, or a full recast.

I’m sorry, how is it fucking “lazy” to expect the audience to engage in narratives outside the one you’re presenting but NOT “lazy” to rely on those narratives for your story to work? Who is actually being “lazy” here?

Please let it be Daniel Radcliffe.

Who cares about if the available names are big? One of the better casting decisions that the MCU has had in the last ten years was Tom Holland as Spider-Man and he was a complete unknown to most people before he got cast. They don’t need established actors in every role. Maybe Professor X and Magneto need to be…

I suspect they’re just going to use the Singer cast through Secret Wars and then multiversal shit will let them reboot whatever they want about the world of the MCU. Then I think we’ll start seeing a new X-Men cast.

It sounds like both this and the Gunn Superman are going to be more Golden-Age-y. Which sounds fine but not sure it is a path forward for the MCU.

I seriously question if there are enough available big name stars who have not already been in the MCU and fit the parts to play the MCU versions of the X-Men...they might…

“the Waynes being murdered in an alley”

Hell, the car got its own show!

“Damn you, egerz!!!”

OMG, how could I forget Pennyworth? And that wasn’t the original title of the show, they added that later when, I guess, people weren’t watching it because the Batman connection was too subtle.  Which I find endlessly hilarious. 

Well this went from 0 to 90 quickly

I know they want to keep Batman in the realm of the movies, but I’ve never seen a property so strip-mined by adjacent spinoff properties.  Off the top of my head, we have Gothman, Batwoman, Birds of Prey, and now Penguin, to say nothing of the Joker films and Harley Quinn movies.  (You could toss in the Harley Quinn…

I think the suits are concerned that if fans ever got a TV show called Batman where the main character is Bruce Wayne / Batman, it would be too much of a good thing and the fans would spontaneously combust

Like fights about sports, I think it’s a mistake for transgender/gender nonconforming people to be choosing this fight. It means that, when many people are still very uncertain where they stand on gender issues, public battles are being fought on ground that is not especially favorable.

People should be able to choose their gender identity and pronouns and be respected for that, but the vast majority of humans, and not just cishet people, are completely comfortable with identifying as entirely one gender, so the insistence that “gender is a spectrum,” while not outright false, sure seems like an…

Especially when there are dozens of other reasons to shit on Timberlake.

It’s been a decade-plus of him ruining America and he still won’t shut up and go away.
