“No. The businesses didn’t force a strike. The workers voted to strike.”

“No, the Japanese didn’t force a war. The United States Congress voted to declare war.”

Germaine Lussier seems like a nice man.

The strikes are against the AMPTP and productions with SAG and/or WGA contracts. Critical Role the company isn’t a member of AMPTP, and the actual play show isn’t produced under SAG contract because the primary cast are all co-owners and equity partners of the company (and not under WGA contract because it’s not,…

How is fighting against AI dumb? It’s been obvious from the start that Big Tech and Hollywood wants to replace all human labor with AI, which very much gives the strike an incentive. The problem is that these sociopaths and psychopaths in power are trying to steal from everyone through any means necessary. It doesn’t…

The impression I got was that after a certain amount of time being inside the Palace, the memories will eventually come back. Though I would agree the logistics of all that weren’t entirely clear.

I want full flashbacks to Ortegas, M’Benga, and Chapel in the Klingon War.

Not who she is or what she stands for, but what her job is, the job that in part was frustrating her earlier in the episode when it restricted her from being part of the away team.

Genuine question - is everything OK? It’s just that this seems a disproportionate reaction to seeing an article on the casting for a comic film on a site that specialises in nerdy news of exactly this type.

I’ve really liked Hoechlin. I wish they’d make more of an effort to physically distinguish Clark and Superman, but that’s a common complaint of mine for live-action versions of the character (barring Reeve, obviously). He really does play them differently at least. He might not be my favourite Superman, but I think…

A writer needs to be careful about that line of thought. Taken to that extreme we could end up with a Superman who instead of standing for truth and justice, and being such a beacon of hope that he makes everyone around him want to be the best versions of themselves because he believes it of them, we could get a dour,…

James Gunn’s Superman Movie Has Found Its Clark Kent and Lois Lane

A childish rant telling other people to grow up. Classic internet. 

Yttrium has taken the true facts that fictional characters are purely arbitrary constructs and thus very flexible, and ran with it to the point of absurdity. As far as he’s concerned, an author can write any character as anything — as long as a writer decide that this mundane travel agent that spend the entire movie…

Midge Maisel is practically Lois Lane but with a different job.

Lois Lane has always been played by an actress who’s older than the Clark Kent/Superman actor.

YES! Rooted for Brosnahan from the beginning, she'll be perfect

Yeah, canonically Lois is always a couple years older than Clark.  It’s part of why she doesn’t take him seriously. 

Are you talking about the actors ages or the characters’ ages? If it’s the first, several actresses that have played Lois were older than their respective Clark Kents. Margot Kidder was four years older than Christopher Reeve.  Teri Hatcher is two years older than Dean Cain. Amy Adams is almost ten years older than…

Rachel Brosnahan as Lois is...yes, thank you, James Gunn. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I cannot imagine anyone better. 

I think it was a sarcastic remark.
