The “cultural appropriation” phenomenon is probably the most poisonous idea that we’ve come up with. Culture doesn’t exist in a vacuum, it’s not something you can horde and the only way you could steal it is if you so completely integrate a piece of culture into your own that people forget that the origins lie…

Don’t wear a Halloween costume that doesn’t reflect your culture or heritage.

Still kind of idly making my way through Season 1. Some thoughts:

Particularly since “Elfo is a friend zone creep” got old REAL fast. 

It's bad. Not late Simpsons bad, but definitely bad. 

This!

It’s not the 80s/90s anymore. The modern standard is you hit the ground running or you don’t. Because now there’s more shows than ever before and if you aren’t amazing by episode 1 you don’t stick out.

I know people will say “watch it whole and it will be worthy”. But I couldn’t get past 3 eps. “Lackluster” is an understatement. It was really, really bad, and I don’t care if it gets better at the last episode. A show, any show, shouldn’t be that awful and expect the audience to keep giving it good numbers in…

It looks like Tintin became Darth Vader...

Damn it, Gotham! I ordered S&M luchador Bane not inflatable movie Cobra Commander!

I know it’s been said a million times before but this Joker movie has me completely baffled. Like what’s going on here.

That is indeed the question. I love both Egerton and Jamie Fox but the trailers so far are the worst kind of garbage. Maybe they aren’t capturing the actual tone of the film and the movie itself is very self aware garbage like the Fast and Furious films.

The only question I have about Robin Hood is will it be bad enough to be good?

So, they add a moustache to a Superman rather than CG one out.

Gambit will happen if Tatum has to do it in front of a bathroom mirror and play every single part, filming it on his phone taped to the toilet seat.

“Why is there a Watchmen TV show?”

SECONDED! This is the alt-universes science fiction series we’ve been screaming for. I also can’t wait until December to see how the Howards are gonna kick ass!

This show brings the awesome by the truckload. JK Simmons is as fantastic as ever, but the other actors bring their A-game as well.  Great story.  Can’t wait for December.

Epix has confirmed that British actor Jack Bannon—a relative newcomer best known for roles in Endeavour and Ripper Street—will play the title role in its 10-part series Pennyworth.

As long as they don’t ask him to do an accent he can’t quite pull off...
