Can I just say, I’m very happy to see Meagan Good playing a superhero (yes, I know she was in the first film; I’m still happy).

The new material reads a lot darker than what they used in the first film, especially on Freddy and Pedro’s suits.

There was something very whimsical about the suit designs in the first movie. While Zack Snyder was trying his damnedest to make Superman’s design dark, serious and edgy, David Sandberg and co were doing the opposite. Zachary Levi’s suit was impossibly puffy, intensely bright, and purposely silly... and it worked.

Yeah, Underworld Unleashed but IIRC Killer Croc wasn’t one of the villains that sold his soul. In Hush, Batman observes how animalistic he’s become and it turns out he’s been getting plastic surgeries paid for or performed by Hush (again, IIRC). I remember because in the very next story, Brian Azzarello took over from…

There’s a very Power Rangers vibe to one of the women having a skirt while the other is in the same style suit as the men.

The REAL Problem is that Ron Funches wasn’t there voicing him.

i think it’ll be Weasel.

Shark is great, but my boy Bane is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

King Shark and Clayface are wonderful characters in that series.

The real question is how Sigourney Weaver would have fared on Designing Women.

Tevya?!?!?!?!?! He disowned one of his daughters because he disagreed with her politics!!!!!!!!

Two things can be true:

And huge chunks of America are prudish. America has always been prudish about sex and blasé about violence. The MPAA ratings board has made this explicitly clear. So yes, I fully expect that there are a significant number of people that would hesitate to buy their 6 year old a Batman t-shirt if they know that Batman…

I took it as "unfortunately, there are so few actual homosexual couples in mainstream tv that people try to force close friends into being one just so they have representation"

It sounded like a really clunky way of trying to say, “We need to show strong, platonic male friendships in media to normalize that, but decades of actual queerbaiting has made that difficult to do without being accused of the same,” not like, an attack on LGBTQ+ fans who want to see representation, or even shippers.…

Sorry but this line of logic only works if DC suits believed that an adult watching the very adult Harley Quinn show would be so offended by the mature act in, again, an adult show, that it would color their opinion of all Batman merch, leading them to not buy their kid that Lego Batman set.

I can sorta see multiple angles on this.

On the one hand, any artist forcefully rebutting why LGBTQ folk might see themselves in a TV-depicted relationship like the one between Bucky and Sam is going to reasonably get pushback. ESPECIALLY if you’re going to forcefully rebut an underdepicted minority group. And there’s…

Hmm... I will not even try to untangle that word vomit. But maybe go parallel, cause maybe? Male friendship - close, deep, platonic friendship between two men (sexual orientation of the parties involved not a factor, they don’t want each other) where there’s talking and shared emotions and deep empathy... isn’t…

Because friendship is a thing that exists, and it’s pretty annoying how some people can’t look at friends in fiction and go “lol they must be fucking” like some assholes?

He probably could’ve phrased it better, but I agree with the underlying sentiment 100%. It’s absurd that every male friendship gets distorted into a potential gay relationship, even when there’s no evidence beyond the relationship being just a male friendship. Happens with female friendships, too (see, e.g.,…
