Yeah— you'd think that a combination of Vartox and a character called "the Lumberjack" would be nothing BUT chest hair, and yet…

Ummm… Vartox is actually the villain in the pilot episode of the show.
It's General Lane; I read this story on a comic book movie website before I saw it here. The author also left off that LiveWire is gonna appear on the show, too (from the Superman animated series).
Odd— this article left out the coolest character confirmation from the panel: LiveWire! With that nugget of information alone, my excitement for the show just tripled…
Well, personally I liked the approach they were taking with the material.
"People in the business would have seen F4 as him paying his dues…"
Yeah— kinda like how Ike Perlmutter sent out an e-mail citing Supergirl, Catwoman, and Elektra as justifications for not producing a Black Widow movie.
"Kids love Batman. Love him."
In all seriousness, though, I'm all for Ben Affleck playing Batman, and I'm sure he did a great job. But giving Batman ANOTHER goddamn trilogy so close to the LAST one is freaking ridiculous.
Idk… these are the same Warner Bros. executives who walked out of Man of Steel thinking that Snyder had hit a home run, and that they had a billion-dollar movie on their hands…
It's funny, because I'm pretty sure that the movie Josh Trank started to make actually WOULD have been good— 'cause he seemed to be eschewing the whole formulaic superhero part of the story and turning it into a straight sci-fi flick with body horror elements. That is a cool take on the material.
Funny thing, actually— Berlanti and Guggenheim had already written out a script for a Flash film to follow Green Lantern before that film bombed at the box office. It was going to introduce the Reverse-Flash and Captain Cold, and featured time-travel and the Speed Force prominently; then Green Lantern was going to…
Green Lantern is probably the biggest missed opportunity in the whole sad history of DC's cinematic failures.
Alright— I dig it!
Yep— that's absolutely my point.
You KNOW that this fight is going to end on the same maddeningly inconclusive note as ALL the "___ vs. ___" movies do, where the two are probably going to have their fight broken up by some city-destroying threat just as things are getting intense but before an actual winner can be called. That way, neither set of…
Or— here's a crazy idea— the two characters who basically fight for the same cause and are presumably rational, good-hearted people could just, y'know, NOT FIGHT.
So since everybody on here already pointed out that these commenters are being top-tier asshats, I'll go ahead and be the pedantic one:
I know— I live in San Diego, actually! There are armies of the guy roaming the streets when the Con is in town. It's kinda terrifying.
Well, having no sense of the subtle nuances of Louisiana's cultural foundations and history, I just assumed that "creole" and "cajun" indicated basically the same thing. A quick Wikipedia search indicates I may be wrong about that; if so, I readily blame my complete ignorance on that particular subsection of American…
