While there's an obvious karmic justice in this, I'm mostly happy he's gone because he was really good at turning that network into the juggernaut it became. Without him, hopefully it all begins a slow descent into irrelevance, because there's no question that Fox News has been terrible for politics in the United

This just convinces me that Colbert needs to reintroduce the Colbert character into his new show. That studio audience was beyond happy to see him doing what he did best.

I felt bad for Steph and Shane, because the writing of their bits is so terrible, and they clearly were awkwardly delivering the story bits handed to them. Neither of them is even a consistent character any more - Stephanie slides from heel to kinda-face week to week, and Shane has gone from pro-smarks to

Never? This is the same company that managed to mend fences with freaking Bret Hart, after everything that happened to him and his brother., and everything they said about each other.

Agreed completely - there were a lot of self-professed liberals basically being bullies during the Kim Davis thing, because of how she looked, and it was incredibly unbecoming. And that's regardless of what she was being criticized for.

“Ailes stated to Carlson: ‘I think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you’d be good and better and I’d be good and better,’” <—- Assuming it's accurate, this is still by far the creepiest and sleaziest part of this entire thing.

It's funny how every time I think I know a lot about comic books, someone does this to me, haha.

Holy shit, Dane Cook is still a thing? That guy seemed to be in a run of shitty comedies, then fell off the face of the Earth and got replaced by Kevin Hart.

I've alternatively heard people call the Batman warehouse fight the best part of the film, which I also don't get, because he kills a bunch of dudes and doesn't use stealth, darkness, or fear-based tactics in the slightest. It was a well-shot action scene, but felt like it should be in a Luke Cage movie, or something.

Had nothing to do with the technology, and everything to do with Marvel/DC taking chances on properties that aren't as immediately bankable. Star Wars made people mourn the death of a little green puppet with white hair over 30 years ago.

I thought it was funny that one of her reasons why was because they actually "talked about emotions". Either Gadot has worked with some lousy male directors, or she has only been cast in action movies until now.

Susan Eisenberg will always be her true voice to me. As much as Conroy will be Batman.

I hear a lot of people say this, but I don't really get it. Gadot's performance was a few looks, like five lines (with completely serviceable delivery), then silently staring at YouTube videos, and being part of the action schlock finale (where acting doesn't really enter into the equation, because it's just a mess

Let your TV and movie writers play with all the toys in the sandbox!

I don't think the depiction of the powers is even the stumbling block. If you can make laser eyes work, or a dude with a ring who creates hard light constructs (maybe bad example, since that movie sucked), you can goddamn well do a freaking lasso and not have audiences laugh. Marvel made adults cry over the apparent

I hate it, but I understand it. In the CW's case, it's more silly because they've already "polluted" their film universe by having a Flash TV show, when they have a different guy in the films. The bell has already been rung - you might as well go all the way.

Because I'm sure film executives saw comic book movies as a domain dominated by men, and wondered if they'd be up for a female-led superhero film. Now we are at a critical mass as a society, where clearly both DC and Marvel are willing to take that leap, and we will see what the box office draw is.

The plane? Nothing wrong with it. Wonder Woman (a character who can FLY, let us not forget) visibly sitting in an invisible chair, in an invisible plane? Silly. And why would Themyscira, a place that is usually depicted as basically ancient Greece frozen in time, commission one modern jet that also happens to be

Je suis tired of people killing innocent civilians in tribute to their invisible space daddy.

Charlie Hebdo was the publication that was attacked - it makes sense for them, and the French people, to show defiance by continuing to publish and buy it. That isn't the case here - it's a film that the publisher has asked to have pulled, so it doesn't look like they are exploiting this event.
