Here’s one way they could have done it:

Right? When they ask you to do the 50th, if you’re not a total diva, you say thank you and yes. Then you work with them and try to have fun. Just smile, give them what they want, and cash your check.

Yeah, I’m calling bullshit on this. If he had actually liked the character, if he really felt any sense of reverence for the fifty f’n years that Doctor Who has blazed trails and shaped science fiction as a whole, he’d have swallowed his differences with whatever elements of the old regime he’s currently blaming for…

Age of Ultron was bloated, yes, but Civil War was (IMO) nearly flawless. So to date, Marvel has mostly passed the big tests.

I have a better idea, pretend BvS and MoS never happened. Because at this point there’s no way I’m willing to invest myself in the DC Murderverse considering that its “Batman” is an alcoholic, homicidal maniac who jumps to illogical conclusions and a “Superman” who once destroyed a man’s truck and ruined his…

Nobody actually liked Avatar. It was more like “Oh wow this is stunning” during the movie, and then “Holy crap that was the most one-dimensional storyline ever to be deemed Oscar bait”.

Can’t be much worse than early-era-Janeway’s Little House on the Prairie schoolhouse marm hairdo.

It’s certainly not robbing the character Janeway of her dignity any worse than getting space salamander pregnant.

How to fix the DC Cinematic Universe:

Yeah, they’ve done this before and in the second version Superman just yelling shut it down, so it it’s ridiculous to think both and Wonder Woman would be down for the count. What you’re seeing up there are the people currently making the most money for DC/WB.

No, context is not everything.

How weird it must be for the TV wing of the DC/WB:

Still a better Transformers film than all of Michael Bay’s.

It could be done, if the costumes were practical like Isabella Rosselini’s “Green Porno” series (look it up on youtube). Make it as weird in presentation as in story.

Anyone who thinks that Torchwood grew into a mature way of handling adult content did not watch Miracle Day.

“Oh grandma, what big lips you have.”
“The better to eat you with, my dear.”

It wasn’t that complicated. Zemo wanted the Avengers to destroy themselves, so he spent years coming through the SHIELD data that Black Widow dumped to find anything useful. He learned that Bucky murdered the Starks and knew that if that info could be proven, it would destroy them.

random contrived coincidence

I sat down to marathon this series with zero expectations (beyond the vague idea that io9 liked it having seen various headlines).
