Exactly, someone who has a personal and financial stake in the success of the movie thought she did well!

Yeah, yeah, you can’t comprehend the fact that people other than pasty white are a default. Piss off

Her name is MOTOKO KUSANAGI. That’s Japanese. Her prosthetic body is Japanese-made. She works in Japan. She’s fucking Japanese. Enough.

That new statement reads like she just learned what cisgender means.  

From the Variety article : “Menken wrote the film’s original music, including the songs “Under the Sea,” “Part of Your World” and “Kiss the Girl.”” . No disrespect to the Maestro but he co-wrote those songs with the late great Howard Ashman. 

One of the best things about this DC universe streaming service is that they know full well only crazy comic book fans will pay for it. So they can freely make a show like Doom Patrol as completely bark raving insane as the comics because they don’t have to worry about a standard casual audience.

Another stand-out moment for me comes right before Ned climbs those steps. The battle between his party and Arthur Dayne and Gerold Hightower was a short but sweet surprise for me with one of the best single line deliveries in the series:

So THAT’S how One Direction got their name, I was always curious!

I hated it. I found the story both disappointing and annoying. What it all came down to, basically, is that Louis is a putz who can’t bear to let his children be sad, so rather than sack up and be the dad, he avoids the responsibility of bearing bad news to his daughter, in turn causing an escalating series of events…

That’s the drawback they don’t tell you about in those fancy guides to dating Natalie Dormer.

Ugh.  Nobody likes atheists, man.  Not even other atheists.  

I genuinely believed that Methuselah was only that old because they counted years differently back then.  There are other characters in the Bible that live several hundred years.  I just assumed those were dog years or something. 

“‘My heroes didn’t fucking lie to America. My heroes didn’t embezzle money from their corporations. My heroes didn’t commit any atrocities.’ That’s cool. But you’re living in a fucking dream world.”

Aside from Snyder exhibiting a certain amount of contempt for the vision of superheroes that, uh, lots of fans of superheroes have, what strikes me about it is how much seems like bad storytelling from the standpoint that it only works by trading on that same prior relationship the part of his audience he’s smug about…

Zack Snyder on people “whining” about how Batman/Superman shouldn’t murder people:

Maybe the writer is just a good friend of his.

Dude’s surname is Wong, not “Kar-Wai.”

I wonder if it’s easier to write f0r male-leads in these action blockbusters, because there’s a such a well developed repository of short-hand for establishing male action hero characters. For example, we just need to see one hint of a strained relationship with a girlfriend, and it calls to mind dozens of action…

No one. That’s the difference between Marvel and DC - Marvel has Kevin Feige, DC simply throws money at the last white guy* who pitches something to them. That’s how we got Chris Nolan’s trilogy, Zack Snyder (until he screwed the pooch with BvS), David Goyer writing everything he can get his hands on, David Ayer on Sui…

A lot has been written about how Superman’s character was completely mishandled in this movie. Not NEARLY enough has been said about how Pa Kent was completely mishandled.

Superman got his greatness from Krypton. He got his goodness from his homespun human parents from the middle of nowhere. I have no idea how “let…
