I was thinking that having a fair few characters connected to Batman (the DC character who they definitely know works on film) probably also drove the choice of Suicide Squad as a followup to BvS.

About the irrational part, anyway.

Daenerys isn't a very good player, she's only caught three and they're all the same type.

Mark Hamill's very first scene as the Joker had him singing that while making an escape….

The girl he's been introduced to is kind of the problem here….

Robin, by a few months. He's pretty much the prototype.

Well, this is a load of old RFUGFJHEFHJEJA SHDNWJFFHESH HELP ME

Well, it was only English 101, you don't get *good* use of English until more advanced classes.

Seems to be a rule that Piper's love interests are the worst (most of Alex's best moments are out of that role).

They're just good friends, okay?

And you're every bit as involved with parallel-universe shenanigans either way.

It's as in-place as anything else in Willaim Moulton Marston's throw-everything-against-the-wall concept, just not in the more recent versions that run with the Greek Mythology angle.

Possible compromise: invisible biplane.

Just keep walking, just keep walking….

It came just after an era when Disney were massively dominant in animated films, so it was a timely parody (though I thought it had cheap tendencies even then). Nowadays, Shrek's own style has been copied and improved on by lots of different studios, and CGI films are much less of a novelty, too.

Other-dimensional beings that totally aren't demons, you mean.

The problems for me were Apocalypse being an undercooked villain, and too many characters who've been in the films before (including the recasts) just doing the things they do without enough of a twist. It's not bad otherwise.

And it's only a first teaser, so saying "Hey, lookit this scenery!" is okay for now.

He began the manga before making the film, and finished it long after — which might explain why the film's worldbuilding is so good, being part of such an immersive project, and Jean-Luc's rough-draft reaction to the characters, since their roles are simplified a bit even compared to the part of the manga the film…

Yeah, I think relatively low-key, small-cast stories are definitely his strong suit in superhero comics. So of course he's spent years on the big teams and cosmic books.
