Whoa whoa whoa… let's be real, here. NOTHING is worse than Gotham.

Well, I'm still an advocate of origins, just because, for most superheroes, the story of how they BECAME heroes is the most dramatically powerful arc they ever go through. Once a superhero dons a costume, they kind of have to stay locked in character stasis— changing as little as possible from adventure to adventure…

Yeah, I could see that! Especially using Green Arrow as the lead, considering that Ollie is a fun, upbeat hero (usually) whose origin story is basically irrelevant; he's Robin Hood in a domino mask, and that's all you need to know!

Goyer's hit-and-miss as a writer (mostly miss), but what he DOES understand is how to construct the basic framework of a decent superhero narrative. The thing is, he can't flesh out the dramatic bits worth a damn, and his stuff is always crammed full of exposition. So for any of it to work, either the script needs a…

Well, so would I. But unfortunately, they were pitching the Aunt May movie back when she was still played by Sally Field.

Henry Cavill would probably make an AMAZING Superman if Warner Bros. ever bothered to make a real Superman movie for him to star in.

I remember that, too! Back when David Goyer was writing an R-rated version that he was trying to piggyback off the success of Blade. Of course, the villain was gonna be Carnage (because who the hell ELSE was it gonna be?).

Come on. This is a studio that was seriously mulling over the idea of an Aunt May spin-off movie. Honestly, this is probably the least horrible thing we could expect from them.

*Ahem.*

What WAS he doing with his voice?! He's not Barry— he can't do that super-deep voice naturally. He needs a high-tech voice changing gizmo-thingy that I assume cost a fortune! So how did flat-broke flashback Ollie do the same voice without it?

Yeah, but that's typical "ninja superhero" stuff.

To be fair, WE didn't know that until the reveal.

Funny how both Arrow and The Dark Knight Rises basically ended up retconning Talia into existence as a wounded, estranged daughter who resurfaces to seek vengeance on the hero for killing Ra's.

NOTHING on this show or The Flash ever makes sense! This is some of the sloppiest, cheesiest, most insulting time-travel writing I've ever seen in science fiction. (And I'm using that designation loosely— ain't nothing "scientific" about this sh*t!)

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

Oh, he'd BETTER not be Savitar.

Oh, for… they brought in Jay for this episode only to basically SIDELINE HIM INDEFINITELY?!

Well, it's not like I'm saying this is a GOOD thing.

I honestly think Trevorrow gets WAY too much flack for Jurassic World. It seems pretty obvious to me what he was going for with that movie: he remade Jurassic Park as if it were a straight up '80s B-movie.

MATTHEW VAUGHN?! Director of X-Men: First Class? Working on Man of Steel II?
