There's a Simpsons tie-in book detailing Comic Book Guy's take on pop culture, and it's got one bit where he gives his advice about buying action figures which recommends buying five of everything: one to open; one to trade; one to customise; one to display; and one to "put away as an investment". Always seemed pretty true to life to me.

It's not in that link, and there's no news about it when I search; all I find is someone's Deviantart mockup from 2009. Or is there a joke that went completely over my head? Oh boy I finally get to do this: FAKE NEWS

What's with the Flash having those tension string things in his suit? Him being in armor looked weird enough already.

I'm guessing they are like ground wires for all the electricity he generates, while the armor is reportedly like a space shuttle type material to protect from the heat off re-entry. I expect narratively that bulky armor serves the same purpose of Piccolo's weighted tunic.

He does it in the tv show, kinda. And he has had Clothes Beam in the comics for decades.

There's one kind of  bit in the book where it does one of those "numbered" pictures (where everything in the image has a corresponding numbered description - I'm not sure what the proper name for them is) outlining everything in Comic Book Guy's tabletop gaming set-up and the last one is "Other people to play with (not pictured)". quote:I always wanted to get the Mr Burns Guide to Management. Yeah, I remember there were loads listed in the "coming soon" section of one of them and it's been 10 years since one was released.

Flashpoint as the Flash introductory film would make sense given the cast they already have. Gives Gal and Momoa another movie to shine (playing even more badass/angry versions of themselves) and an excuse for Jefreey Dean Morgan to be a costumed hero again.

Reasons I'm not excited: 1) loving heroes fighting heroes yet a-loving-gain 2) Flashpoint wasn't good Like we should probably at least get a Flash movie out before blowing a load like this?

Why did WB decide to switch Justice League from a two-part movie to a stand-alone one? Was it a consequence of Snyder's family tragedy or was it separate from that?

This looks vurry good, aside from a couple of stilted "okay team now stand in a line for the camera!" shots. Lol at increased WW presence. Aquaman is cool. Flash is fun. I don't feel.......total monotone ambivalence...towards Cyborg...I guess? I saw a description of the trailer from a couple weeks ago on Reddit that was mostly accurate to what was shown here, aside from the ending shot which they claimed was Superman looking dark and scary. Apparently that final darkness and scariness wasn't received very well, so I suppose they changed it to this moment instead.
