I know the feeling. Still pissed we never got a conclusion. Even if they had just greenlit a movie to wrap things up like they did with Stargate.

Every single time I see a Dark Matter listing my heart leaps for just a second before my head catches up and I remember the right Dark Matter is long gone and canceled.

Basically, RTD needed to pick two out of the three main ideas he had for this story, and then run with that, sacrificing the scene that doesn’t fit the narrative.

ive read a lot of green lantern in my life. mainly the late 80s run thru geoff johns first run in the aughts. my favorite is kyle rayner, especially the circle of fire storyline which i found more compelling and creative than a lot of what came afterward with the generic police metaphors and dialogue that johns…

Ledger as Joker and Evans as Captain America are the two casting choices from my formative college movie buff period that taught me casting agent is a job for a reason, and that they take decisions based on way more info than we have as audiences.

Not only was 12 Monkeys better than it had any right to be, and Emily Hampshire needs to be in more things, but it stuck that series finales way better than like 99.44% of all other television shows.

Definitely, loved 12 Monkeys

I’m glad that they are bringing in actual showrunners and Matalas is a good choice. He didn’t just do seasons two and three of Star Trek: Picard, he also did 12 Monkeys, the very underrated time travel show.

I can think of two reasons why it’ll work

Ahem...

Really draggin it out huh. Truly the slideshow of final seasons.

Yeah, as much as I think “superhero fatigue” is overblown ballooey, blaming “collective ADHD” of kids these days is even worse nonsense. Kids today are perfectly able to sit through a movie. So are people with ADHD, by the way, if the movie is good enough.

Is a mage we know helping Deadpool and Logan zip around? Is it Strange himself, or Wong helping them, or perhaps a variant of either of them?

The only thing people need to overcome this so-called “superhero fatigue” is a good superhero movie. We know this because that’s what has happened before. If you go back to 2007, every critic under the sun swore that superhero movies were over. Superman Returns had flopped the year before, and both Spider-Man and…

They should pull a Deadwood and give it a Made-for-Max movie. I liked that Deadwood movie.

Oh god, stop whining about everything being woke. The Silver Surfer is a naked silver alien who zips around the galaxy on a surfboard and is never drawn hanging dong. Swapping-out Norrin Radd for a female character of his species is not the end of the world. The majority of people complaining about this casting don’t…

Isn’t it funny how when a movie cast skews towards women or POC, it’s “political” or “pushing a message,” but if it’s all white dudes, there’s never a problem?

“Just about” is saving you from a “what about Wong and Madisynn” dogpile here.

“what fallout is supposd to be”

There’s another piece of this that seems to be glossed over, regarding “only 8" episodes, vs 20ish of the original:
The original episodes averaged about 20 minutes long. The new live-action is at least double that, and averages closer to 50 minutes each. Pretty simple math will tell you that’s close to the same runtime…
