It's true! We're so lame!

I'll always love the wonderfully bizarre and disturbing arc on Studio 60 when Bradley Whitmore decided to relentlessly pressure and stalk Amanda Peet into being his wife and lover. When she was pregnant. With another man's child. And she was also his boss. And then after a couple of episodes of creepy stalking, she…
Spider-man needs some Mads Mikkelsen to class up the place!
Amazing Spider-man's dad is currently hanging out in the negative zone with all the other dead superhero movie plot points. He gets to hang out with Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern and the recent Fantastic Four. They get a little depressed sometimes, since no one gives a crap about them in our world, but on the whole…
I'm still holding out for a character to get hit in the face and then another character cringes "that's…gotta hurt!"
Maybe everyone already had a logo and Lex just assigned them because he's been watching them all 24/7? I mean, Cyborg's logo could easily be connected to the lab that made him, Aquaman's might be a Atlantis symbol, Wonder Woman's is just a couple of Ws and the flash…well the dude has lightning flying off him all the…
I agree that the email scene was incredibly dumb but I don't really get all the hate for it. It's a fairly brief scene and happens immediately at the start of the third act (not in the middle of some huge fight scene). Plus the email exchange shows a critical part of Batman's character development. Namely that he…
I think/hope that they'll trust the audience and not devote too much time to rehashing Barry Allen's origin. I mean, tons of people are hopefully familar with his concept through the tv show. Cyborg is tied into the central plot so he can get as much origin as is needed. Batman and wonder woman will be covered and…
My guess is that Thrawn will eventually get demoted to whatever the star wars equivalent of Siberia is. You know, so then we can go "Oh that's why he's wasn't in the original trilogy!" And then Disney still has Thrawn in the back pocket for whenever they inevitably start doing media set in the huge gap between Jedi…
So we've had Tom Baker in Rebels and we had David Tennant in Clone wars. Can season 4 of Rebels have a grouchy man voiced by Peter Capaldi? He could ridicule the other characters and at one point he'd start screaming "LEGO! THEY'RE ALL MADE OUT OF LEGO!!!"
It's a lovely surprise how relaxed aquaman is (especially considering that damn "I'm such a serious bad ass" picture that's been circulating for the last year).
I feel like I'd care more about this movie if we didn't have the new Alien movie coming out in a couple of months. I mean, I COULD just see both but…cinemas are expensive and none of the trailers for Life looked that appealing. Alien Covenant could very well suck, but Ridley Scott is more than capable of entertaining…
I assumed you meant Maclolm as one of the two misses. I really hate Malcolm mostly because Barrowman never really makes him seem more than an annoyance and for some reason people keep trusting Malcolm, even though his entire MO is just to betray everyone. Darhk was ridiculous (and in that way, he does work much…
I'm sure Rosenbaum would be down to reprise his role. Casting him in The Flash would be double geek points considering his Justice League voice role.
Clancy Brown as a live action Lex Luthor! (Yes clancy brown has appeared on the flash already but come on! Alternate universes!)
I still see giant ads for Rogue one on buses and honestly struggle to remember anything of substance. TFA had me literally chomping at the bit to see it a second, third and forth time.
I think a lot of the issue with Rogue one was you either had to infer each character's backstory and personality or you had the character bluntly tell you that.
I must admit, I did think the sheer balls to kill everyone was pretty amazing. I loved the visuals of the finale (like Mendelson trapped on the planet while CGI Tarkin coldly orders the death star to fire) but the only death I truly felt was the wonderful robot. An Alan Tudyk robot deserves so much more.
TFA's story definitely had a repetitive vibe to it, but I still think Rey and Kylo were pretty well defined (although Kylo is just, a terrible human being). Even Finn and Poe were pretty vividly defined, although there it was mainly due to great casting and chemistry.
I'm also insanely psyched at what kind of unique insanity Rian Johnson can bring to the table. JJ Abrams was a fine choice for the first entry (especially given that Disney had to kind of win back Star Wars fans) but hopefully Johnson really radically shakes things up.
