I actually liked Luhrman’s Gatsby. He was overly obvious here and there for sure, but the party sequences called for exactly his brand of spectacle (check out the 1970s version, you’ve never seen such a dull shindig in your life), Toby McGuire was a great choice to play the naif (I love Sam Waterson, but the dude’s…
“I’ve seen kids drawings that looked more photorealistic than this...”

Left out Nora Fries, Regular Superman, Supergirl, Lois Lane, and the Kent Farm set from Smallville. It makes sense now why they left the Legends out this time around.

Anyone who wants to lie on the floor, curled up in the fetal position, sobbing their fucking brains out for a good hour after the end credits roll. So basically anyone who's seen the original, even tho we all KNOW we damn well don't have the emotional fortitude to withstand this live action, emotional punch to the gut…
To the other commenters, where did they act like they cured inequality? They proved a point and people, like local news, took notice. That’s like step #1 of deconstructing white supremacy - using your privilege to not only acknowledge it exists but also right the wrongs it produced.
I see this divergence around what’s…
They’ve now begun pre-production on Season 12, and if all goes well, it should be ready to air by fall 2019.
We intend to file an amicus brief with the U.S. District Court.
Tough shit, chuckles!
