The problem is that the tone set by the Snyder trilogy pretty much poisoned whatever goodwill the DCEU could have generated. Three, or more accurately, two-and-a-half movies full of tedious Randian bullshit, deeply unsympathetic heroes, and the gloomy worldview of a nihilistic middle-schooler. The DCEU failed utterly…

That Cyclops needs the jacket.

You can never trust a man who is afraid of taking a gamble. 

Now that I can get into.

There’s just so much here. Part of the reason this situation feels so odd and unprecedented is because, as the letter alludes to, this is an extremely nuanced situation that is being handled in the court of public opinion- a court that is famously bad at handling nuance.

Oh for fucks sake people! They’re looking for classy and dignified suggestions. Not that silly claptrap!

That’s just a silly silly name. Everyone knows it has to be Rovey McMarsFace OR Mars McRoverFace.  I’m partial to the first one.

Fight Club proves your point: the movie gives you Brad Pitt, the book is a couple hundred pages of Ed Norton voiceover.  “I am Jack’s blood pressure rising at another goddamn paragraph about Ikea furniture”

Of course it is! It was something fresh and new. Something that hasn’t been done before in that genre let alone movies in general. And most importantly, it gave a wider audience a chance to see what us geeks were raving about so long ago.

Either way he choose to do something that made this reporter (and his mom) feel amazing. Seems like a pretty great act to take when you are considered the greatest player.

I guess Mexico and Korea could be considered “Seoul Brothers” now.

Those German’s just don’t do well anywhere on the Volga river. 

Nice of El Tri to loan green(ish) jerseys to Germany so that they could shit the bed worse.

‘May the Schwartz be with you!”

Not to go full whataboutism, but I think DC also does (or did) its most exciting work in alternate universes.

Don’t blame the phone. You’re not holding it right.
