Ok, let’s open this up: who is the worst manager right now? I think it’s a dead heat between Fredi and Mike Matheny, but I’m willing to listen to other people’s cases.

Yeah, Syndergaard totally has the Royals number and I HATE him for it

Someone who loves Syndergaard has GOT to introduce him to the concept of “using conditioner”

Yeah, see the fact that you think that the dour, violent masturbatory garbage that Zack Snyder makes is remotely on the same level as the MCU movies or the Nolan movies, and that Kevin Smith’s dialogue is commendable on any level or that he’s capable of writing with wit is evidence that you and I have very different

You and I clearly have very different definitions of what constitutes “fun” and “good acting”

You cannot compare clickbait articles on io9 to the actual films themselves. Nothing in the MCU movies is just tossed off window dressing in the way that the overstuffed garbage Snyder makes are, except for things that are clearly just there as Easter eggs - the post-credits scene in GotG isn’t going to lead to a

The casting would be the least of the horrors. The man has never made a movie that actually works on any level if you’re not already on board with what he does. Mallrats and Clerks and Clerks 2 and Dogma are all movies that require you to have already bought into the whole Kevin Smith thing and not ever outgrown them

It’s not even a reference to a wider narrative, because Snyder isn’t capable of that. It’s just a reference. It’s just there for easily impressed, superficial fanboys to go “WHOA ROBIN COSTUME DEATH IN THE FAMILY OMG”. It’s literally just window dressing, it did nothing to ground the character or make Battfleck’s

A Death In The Family was a story ABOUT the death of Jason Todd. It wasn’t shitty window dressing that the writers threw in because they have no concept of how to construct a story. Saying that he was drawing on A Death In The Family because they both include a dead Robin is like saying that The Revenant is drawing on

God I hope Gerry Dugan puts a joke in an upcoming issue of Deadpool about this

Oh Christ, the only thing that would be more insufferable than Snyder doing DC movies is Kevin Smith.

Counterpoint: There is zero evidence that Suicide Squad has the right tone and focus. Exhibit A: Juggalo Joker.

What source material was he drawing from when he made the murders of Robin and Jimmy Olsen into “fun little Easter eggs” that weren’t explained on screen?

I still can’t believe I thought a promotion that was headlined by fucking Shane Douglas was cool
