No, it's more important now than ever. It's also a cute pun.

Nah Mark Millar probably won't say that Kick-rear end as a franchise (and also Superior and Nemesis but mostly Kick-rear end) is about him working through his issues with comic book fans and the industry and what people expect from him but gently caress you that's absolutely what's going on

In what it can only be the start of an endless amount of rumors, now is being said that Reeves is eyeing Jake Gyllenhaal to replace Affleck, with the idea of The Batman being moved to the Elseworld line of films or making it a prequel to BvS

In a couple months they'll announce their bringing Bale back and go through with the Affleck as Deathstroke rumors.

If they decide to replace Affleck already, they should just end the current Justice League universe with WW2, and start over.

The rule is, you're not allowed to talk smack about post-structuralism unless you're going to put up a sterling defence of structuralism. I demand you ascertain the science of Snyder so that we may project forwards a 'Justice League' from first principles, and find the existing film lacking in its wake.

A good justice league film exists entirely on it's own and doesn't spend half the movie introducing the team it just drops you into the time they all got possessed by Starro and Tommy Monaghan had to shoot astronauts

A good JL film would also at least pay lip service to Green Lantern. DC really hosed this thing up and rushed it. They didn't even have to follow Marvel's world building template but having their two most famous properties face off then killing one and resurrecting him over the course of two just films and wantonly diving into an ensemble and then announcing stand alone unconnected films just seems chaotic and aimless. Like, you could start with the entire team and then work backwards but the way the universe comes off feels like they're just randomly throwing darts and hoping for breakout moment. It has no cohesion, tonal consistency or any long term vision whatsoever. It shows in the product too. It's no accident that WW is their best film, I'd argue largely for this reason. Two out of their first four movies were ensembles and a third was a fight to the death showdown that shoehorned WW and Flash in. None of it's earned and one could argue not really shown. It's more to with pacing than anything really. DC seems to want to adapt all their best stories all at once and the product suffers for it.

Two Lanterns are part of the army that repelled Stepenwolf's first invasion Anyways, the WSJ is reporting that Comcast has also approached Fox, interested on buying similar assets to those discussed by Disney. https://www.newsarama.com/37409-fox-has-announcer-suitor-in-acquisition-buyout-report.html https://www.wsj.com/articles/comcast-approached-21st-century-fox-over-acquisition-interest-1510869129

Gyllenhaal would also be much better served as a Bat-villain of some sort though. Like, that dude as Riddler? Dope as hell.

Like it's okay to trust any loving critics. Judge it for yourself. E: If you don't like it based on the trailers though - thats fine.

In a world where the abysmally-reviewed The Orville is regarded as being the best Star Trek series since DS9, I wonder if people still read reviews anymore.

Its also okay if you completely lost interest when you saw that Joss Whedon was attached to it.

Food/drink/candy is optional, but still. You're looking at a 20-30$ night just to see something you may not like for 2 hours. Plus lovely audience members around you talking and being entitled pieces of poo poo. If seeing films isn't your passion, that could seem like a real chore to do. And hey, you can always catch it later at your house on Redbox, and maybe you'll enjoy it! Who knows!

The primary purpose of criticism is apparently to help you get your money's worth by avoiding bad cinema visits. You need to listen to critics so that you won't be annoyed by other audience members. That seems rather paranoid.

Kinda funny James Franco is being tapped for Multiple Man. There was a controversy where Madrox was apparently dating an underaged character, except the character was actually an adult when they were dating but everyone thought she's a child because she was when first introduced but Madrox's comic had time move forward faster than the other Marvel comics at the time. James Franco, on the hand, was accused of dating a high school girl but it turned out to be one of his weird ways of promoting his movie or something. Also I heard Jason Momoa is going to be The Crow.

I mean there's pretty much nothing they could do about that do to contracts. Well, I supposed they could have just kept the original version of the film instead of pointlessly changing it. Like, I guess audiences need a scene of Superman talking to teens so you know he's cool?
