And Supper Club, don't forget that.

I kinda just figured that he handed the cowardly, easily paniced guy he just met an empty gun so that a.) if he WAS a terrorist, he couldn't immediately double cross him, or b.) if he WASN'T a terrorist, he would have something to bolster his confidence and keep him from freaking out any more, without risking the guy a

Saw the movie tonight.

BvS made money on the gimmick of Batman meeting Superman alone. If it had been good, it would have made a LOT more money than it ended up making.

Hey— I know how to pronounce his name! It's not hard— it's pronounced just like it's spelled: "Dr. Julian Bashir".

Extremely partisan news outlets? Slanting actual news stories in a positive or negative light to cater to their audience's political leanings? And all of it to make MONEY?!

I lived in San Diego for 8 years, and I can definitely tell you that the California burrito is friggin' AWESOME.

The Spaihts draft (Alien: Engineers) was a LOT clearer and more straightforward than the movie we got, so I pretty much blame Damon Lindelof alone for how stupid and unnecessarily elliptical Prometheus was.

So, it's just Prometheus all over again, but with actual Xenomorphs this time?

So the movie everyone guessed that the Academy would fawn over won a ton of awards tonight, EXCEPT the one award everyone thought it would win, which went to a dark-horse candidate?

It's pretty much the exact opposite of Heath Ledger's design. Ledger was literally dressed as a clown, but looked like a serial killer; Leto dressed as a glam-rock gangster, but just looked like a clown.

Welllllllllllllllll… I'd disagree, but I can see where you're coming from. Personally, I don't LIKE how the characters look, but I can't deny that a lot of really hard work went into making them look like that, and I appreciate what they were going for.

Well, at least it's for a design category. The DCEU movies have had plenty of visual style and conceptual creativity going for them so far (with the exception of Ben Affleck's Batman costume, which is just the most boringly literal translation of the comic image into live action that they could manage). It's just the

Honestly, I'm just stoked that we got as much of Stewart's Xavier as we did, considering they killed him off in the third movie, nearly killed the whole franchise with the shitty Wolverine spin-off, and cast a younger actor for the part in the reboot/prequel.

"… the weirdness of setting up a romance between two kids who will now essentially live as siblings."

Black Lightning is one of the very, very few DC characters I know next to nothing about. I know his name is Jefferson Pierce, I know he was an advisor to President Lex Luthor at one point, and, uh… I know that he has lightning powers. (Oh, and he rocked a disco collar in the '70s.)

This movie looks genuinely unnerving. Even setting aside the social context of the thing (which is a pretty horrifying component in and of itself), some of the shot compositions in the trailer are just so well done… It looks like Peele is a hell of a visual stylist, and he knows how to use a camera to creep you the

Was anyone else here surprised and more than a little disappointed that Mxyzptlk wasn't pulling some kind of con on Supergirl in this episode? I mean, he busts down the door, professes his love, and IMMEDIATELY wants to get married… he seems desperate to, in fact. Doesn't that suggest that he has ulterior motives?

Oh, yeah— The Rocketeer was great! Though at the time it came out, I wasn't familiar with the comic it was based on, so I always kind of filed it away in my mind with those other movies.

Oh, I came around to liking The Shadow… Ironically, I had to grow up to really appreciate its pulpy charms (and its fantastic cast). But I would still call it, at best, a guilty pleasure.
