BrianWilly posted:t's like having R.A. Salvatore write the first book of a series, and then for some reason George RR Martin is allowed to do whatever he wants in the second book, and then handing it back to Salvatore because [train rolls by, drowning out all sound] Salvatore did write the first novel of a Star Wars thing and then not the rest of them. It was called Vector Prime. It sucked.

On Gotham they had him win and he got to be mayor for a while. He ended up doing a thing where he made crime legal (as long as you paid him.) Criminals got crime licenses and the cops weren't allowed to arrest anyone with one.

Gotham stopped trying to be realistic partway through the first season. It was a show where pre-Grundy Cyrus Gold blows up Azrael (who was also mayor of Gotham) with a rocket launcher. Also Hugo Strange had a running gimmick where he was constantly stealing corpses and bringing them back to life.

That show was immensely loyal to actors that didn't quit. Minor characters became major just by sticking around. Jim Gordon's ex had so many different plotlines' and the woman playing Azrael's evil sister stuck around so long after the Azrael Arc it was crazy.

Gotham started getting incredible with the Balloon Man episode, in which Jim Gordon and Bullock stare helplessly, guns drawn, as the Balloon Man very slowly floats away, and never really slows down. I'm a Broadway fan so Michael Cerveris as Professor Pyg was incredible, and Anthony Carrigan's career-defining NoHo Hank on Barry is presaged in the funniest possible way in his recurring role as Zsasz. And yeah, Robin Taylor rules so loving much as the Penguin. Gotham is often this close to being incomprehensible but I always looked forward to it more than any other show.

So, obviously it is on hold for right now but Neil Gaiman has said that production has advanced pretty far on the Netflix Sandman series. Scripts are done, directors are hired and they had started casting.

https://twitter.com/Snoodit/status/1252590410175823874 tbh, I didn't even know these two had overall deals. probably has at least as much to do with the deals predating the Feige takeover as it does with COVID-19

looks like one guy did the punisher, which, its done and gone anyways, and the other was doing helstrom son of satan which i dunno why that was ever a thing in the first place but it sounds like its already wrapped on on-set production so theyre gonna finish that one eventually and poop it out on hulu or whatever

I literally forgot they were doing that and had no idea it had even started shooting, let alone wrapped.

It was one of the two survivors of a Hulu set of four shows that were supposed to do a series merge like the Defenders, right? Everything else was already canceled or nearly cancelled?

I am watching all of the CW shows now. Arrow takes a real nosedive in season 4 and flash season 2 can be rocky. Supergirl is really fun and good. I hate Damian darhk
