This is depressing. At some point in the past two decades, the world’s music producers decided we listeners just couldn’t handle the unaided human voice, and between the scrubbing and pre-taping of live performances and the reflexive use of pitch “correction” — even for perfectly competent singers — there’s a whole…

I wish people were all as passionate as you are about it

People outside of big cities rarely really attend live performances of music these days that aren’t being put on by people already mega-stars, and this “live” music people go see is predominantly over produced in the way that you describe, even at what is…

I can think of so many resources I found on the internet even six years ago: stuff that was well-sourced, in-depth and had integrity.... gone.

Man, remember when people pretended to be mad about M.I.A.’s middle finger? Oh, the Twenty-teens. Such an innocent time.

I watch them for the single female lawyer, fighting for her client, wearing sexy miniskirts and being self reliant.

The entire reason this article exists is because people were excited for this movie. There was a public outcry over the film which is why WB tried to start a bidding war over it instead of cancelling it quietly. So yes, a lot of people wanted this.

Hollywood’s “interesting edges” have always been sanded down. Social media briefly sharpened those edges, when it looked like celebrities could be “authentic” with their fans, but everyone quickly figured out how social media presences for A-list celebrities are just as phony (and kind of need to be) as any morning…

Jesus, there’s a SpongeBob Musical?

i highly doubt we see a second season of peacemaker. gunn has already said he won’t touch it until after superman, which will almost certainly be delayed and - oh yeah - zazlov is still in control of both.

He looks like an elderly version of the Mutant gang leader from The Dark Knight Returns.

I’m not a fan of Wile E. Coyote either, but I love all the other characters. My family could not afford Disney World, so we went to the Six Flags parks. I always found the Looney Tunes to be funnier than Disney. If Zaslav had any interest in trying to tap into the nostalgia of an older generation there could be money.…

That's what I'm hoping for at this point tbh 

Here's hoping someone in production leaks the movie at least. And that Zaslav's career in Hollywood and in film ends. 

Has anyone tried dropping a large cartoon anvil on Mr Zavlav or lacing his lunch with earthquake pills?

Thanks for confirming that you know nothing about what the movie was actually going to be like. Or for some weird but convincing satire. Not sure which is going on here, to be honest; it’s getting harder and harder to tell.

THAT’S your headline, AVClub???  I mean, “Lift ‘The Veil’.” was RIGHT THERE. 

Remember when there were rumors about Chris Nolan coming back into the WB family? Yeah, that ain’t happening now. And all creatives should take his lead. Don’t work with a studio that will let you spend years of your life working on something that may never see the light of day. 

Spoiler alert for a movie released last summer! This is reminding me of how the High Evolutionary destroyed an entire planet full of living beings in Guardians of the Galaxy 3 because it wasn’t perfect. Given how Zaslav knows nothing about taking creative risks, James Gunn should jump ship now.

Zaslav is clearly enjoying this. He passed “making tough decisions that hurt creatives and audiences to benefit shareholders” to being a genuine mustache-twirling villain trying to make people cry.

Gotta be a disgruntled employee with access out there somewhere that will leak this.
