It’s funny how you both argue that one thing can’t be inferred from a movie because it never actually says that, but also infer something else (no one in the movie ever mentioned Darkseid or any n0n-Superman threat).

Characters in a movie being stupid or naive aren’t plot holes, they’re stupid or naive characters. Amanda Waller isn’t stupid, but she probably thinks whatever suits were in that room were. She doesn’t want to stop Superman, she wants her own black ops kill squad with superpowers and neck bombs, and she got it.

That’s a dangerous mistake!

If there’s one thing you learn watching all the Hulk Hogan vehicles it’s that huge hulking muscle men are really hard to convincingly shoot in any sort of love scene.

Pretty sure this is happening because of a Constantine project at HBO that he won’t be playing, so he isn’t getting every call.

My secret belief here is that they’re just recasting him because this isn’t the first time Ryan’s had the role pulled away from him, and they’re probably betting on the HBO show tanking and…

How quickly we forget the one time it was about a trans hot tub streamer so the picture was a hyper tight closeup on her face for some reason.

Flintstones did it!

My favorite thing about these is how they always try to cover the spread between “I want to blast zombies or do puzzles” “I like guns” and “I need to think this game will have tits in it to buy it” except amazingly there’s a gay version on Grindr where your character is still a boring normal guy but the babe that…

No, you’re talking “formulaic.” I never said that because in large part I don’t agree with it. I think the genre is going in interesting directions right now, and am eager to see where it goes. Gunn, meanwhile, is prepping his parachute.

Weirdly, joke racism is still racism.

As a kid my grandparents threw me on a plane home to my parents by myself.  It was a cross country flight and I was 7, which I think was the sort of shit you could still do in the 80s.  The person sitting next to me got this treatment, and I wasn’t even attached to him.

And I’m saying if you pressed him he wouldn’t back that up. If you said “Okay James, which comic book movies are not different” he’d cough up some obvious stinkers from the 90s and stop there, because very few superhero movies nowadays are just “Line up the good guys and the bad guys and they shoot beams at each…

He’s also on the hook for a Guardians Holiday Special on D+.

I dunno. I don’t disagree with you, my issue is that no one out here is saying The Suicide Squad isn’t a comic book movie or a superhero movie. He’s trying to brand it as something different. It’s not. It’s a war movie in the same way that Ant-Man is a heist movie. Which is to say it is that, and it is also a comic…

Disney’s gotta love this statement what with him on contract for two more Guardians things. But I guess those aren’t comic book movies, they’re comedy space epics or something.

Seriously isn’t a comic book movie just a movie about characters that appeared in a comic book?  Fucking Ghost World and Weird Science are…

We can’t keep giving these people to Ben Carson, we don’t even know what he’s doing with them.

Did the original Space Jam have a “canceled” joke in it? No? Then it was a better movie.

Actually now that I’m really thinking about it, we could be seeing a Namor support character here, if that rumor is true. She could be Namora, Namorita, Dorma, or even a villain like Llyra.

I guess it’s super lucky that there’s a history of other Panthers, so it’ll be an easier transition, but yeah. My money is on Nakia becoming the new Panther, even though in the comics it’s usually Shuri. Shuri already has a pretty defined role in the MCU , while Nakia was in a personal shift at the end of the first…

She didn’t just go quiet, she put out an apology, almost definitely an attempt to buy back Disney’s good graces.  Carano put out an apology and then immediately shit on the apology, too.
