I guess I should have clarified. When I said I wanted versions of all the characters as Jesus, I was joking. It was a joke. A joke. 

Did a young Zack Snyder have a traumatic experience with a bright primary colour once and is now unable to ever use one in his films?

It’s going to turn into ‘Synecdoche, New York’, where Snyder eventually turns a whole city into his production space for a never ending cut of ‘Justice League’.

Don’t forget, Whedon being exposed as an asshole proves that Snyder’s vision of the DCEU is awesome!

It makes a twisted kind of sense, because now it doesn’t matter whether the Snyder Cut is satisfying or disappointing, the “Release the Snyder Cut” weirdos can just immediately move on to a “Make the Snyder Sequel” hashtag.

Haven’t been this anxious to hate watch a movie since “Cats”. 

Zack Snyder’s constipation is almost cured and soon AV Club will move on from what I can only assume will be an epic turd. I look forward to that day.

JL2: Sny Harder

Of all the things that define who Superman is and what he stands for, I personally think you can get rid of 99% of his backstory. At the end of the day the key is simple. He is an alien orphan raised by good people who has power that make him a god among men, yet his upbringing makes him a good morale person who’s

They didn’t get fired, they resigned. They’re not even leaving Gimlet - just moving to other projects in the same company. Sruthi was already leaving the show before this even blew up, and PJ decided to take a leave of absence which turned into his full resignation.

Welp that headline was a rollercoaster of emotions

It’s gonna be weird to see Cavill in blackface but hey, whatever gets him back in the role

Strangely, I don’t hear much kvetching about parading the confe-DUH-rate rag around the capitol building being disrespectful to the American flag.

I haven’t seen anyone but internet trolls call them racist, I don’t think even Eric called them that. I think a better word is “unsupportive of POC”. It’s still slimy but not as shitty.

On a side note, we need better language when talking about issues like these. I am not going to justify or dismiss what Vogt and Pinnamenani did or didn’t do, but I don’t think it’s fair to call them racist. I say this as a black woman with many important white people in my life who have been dismissive of my

Xena at least had a transwoman that guest-starred though too which I’m sure those kind of guys would have found confusing. The fact that they had Willow be gay (well she should have been bi, queer or pan but it was the 90s....) but Lorne languished in that weird area where he *acted* flamboyant and flirted with Angel

“Anti-American?” Pretty sure that adequately describes the people supporting those who literally declared war on America 160 years ago.

I thought it was pretty straightforward as well. Doesn’t make up for the other issues with that movie and certainly not his shitty behavior, but at no point did I think “Natasha’s a monster because she’s childless.”

The thing that gets me about that storyline in AoU is that it’s an easy fix: Natasha can be a ‘monster’ for all the things she did prior to joining SHIELD, as Whedon had already pointed out in the previous movie.
