It should be noted, perhaps, that Snyder is not a defendant in the suit, it's Netflix and 10 other people that are currently unknown to the plaintiff (folk within Netflix to be named later, one would assume). Unless I've read it all wrong; I am not a, um, law... talkin'... guy.

It should definitely be noted, however, that the thread feeling that charging ahead and developing a wealth of extended media for a wholly-unproven IP cringe is generally a Bad Fuckin' Idea was prescient. I had heard about the vibeo gaem, and now there's this tabletop thing too? :yikes:

Yep

""Alien races and planets were not named or described, royal characters and their lineages were missing, and there was no clear storyline for how the Rebel Moon universe originated," states the lawsuit. "Netflix did not even deliver Plaintiff any official Rebel Moon trademarks or logos."

The gamemaker subsequently supplied "all the missing pieces and created a cohesive backstory" for the franchise in a "World Bible," which it handed over to Netflix. Where the script introduced a character as "Alien 1," for example, the company created its name, age and origin, among other things.

Snyder and multiple Netflix executives were "so enamored with the 228-page World Bible" that they indicated "substantial elements of it" would be incorporated into the franchise, including the film. The game was finished in May."

In case you don’t want to give some rage bait bigot the clicks, here’s the info on the creatives behind the rebel moon comic

quote:

In a press release, Titan Comics revealed the prequel series will be a “four-part comic series … written by Eisner-nominated Mags Visaggio with art by Clark Bint and colors from Francesco Segala.”

Googling it turns up a bunch of news sites I don't wanna click but maybe someone here already did and can say: What is even the big announcement here? I guess it's fun that assholes on TwiXer get mad and that apparently cool people get to work on a probably cool project, but is Snyder even involved? Like, did he pick out those murderous trans people because Netflix told him he got to have a prequel comic? That would be cool, but so far the only thing I'm getting is that people who are often mad for lovely reasons are mad now.

The big news is that it's a spinoff comic book of Rebel Moon featuring the Blood axe twins, and it's written by a trans woman. Said transwoman was picked by Zack, and by her own accounts, they hit it off pretty well. I guess some people are Big mad Zacks gone full woke, which isn't really news anymore because when aren't they mad about someone going woke

Apparently she has been working on it since March which is when she first met Zack. I looked up Vagrant Queen, which is a SyFy show she wrote that was apparently cancelled pretty early on and it looks alright.

I vaguely remember Vagrant Queen (though also realized I was blending it with Killjoys). That's about the extent of my memories. Though from what I recall it has an aesthetic and rough plot that seems like it could fit in with what's been shown of Rebel Moon.

Yeah, Snyder has been inclusive for a long time; he's just really casual about it instead of making it about himself.

There's a gay couple on the ferry in Batman Vs Superman that, of course, WB cut out for the theatrical release. Disney would then go on to have their 'first gay character' five different times.

The leftist contingent of snyder-heads are mad about it but it's such a nothing statement of a letter I have a hard time getting worked up over it. It blames Hamas, wants peace between Israel and Palestine and the focus is on the hostages. It's written to be as uncontroversial and neutral as possible.

Like, yeah, it would have been way better to just not sign the drat thing, but like Majkol said, he's ultimately a hollywood lib

Having a bad take on Israel/Palestine (or not realising that being 'neutral' is itself a pretty bad take) is kind of understandable given a) how hard a particular narrative has been pushed for a really long time and b) that it does seem to be an issue that can ruin ones career.
