You're probably just either a literal child or someone with a severely warped and binary world view. So unless you're actually like 10 years old or something that's a pretty loving sad point of view to hold. Yeah but that said Affleck is sad because he made another crappy Boston movie and his wife didn't think cheating was cool.

All I said was that it's really weird to be concerned for a multi millionaire, and that's because someone with that much money has a better chance at solving pretty much any problem short of mortality itself than like 99% of the world's population. Is this like a weird concept to you? Is "I'm sure that people will be fine due to their immense wealth" some weird thing you've never heard someone say before? site posted:I can't speak for everyone but I was making fun of that dumbass post you made cuz I'm not a sociopath It might surprise you to learn that I too, am not a sociopath.

No what you literally said is that if you have empathy for someone past a certain point of wealth it's a reflection of your own problems. Your exact words. And then you further expounded on that point by implying, if not outright stating, that rich people's problems with depression aren't real problems. Maybe you're just a dummy and didn't mean to type that, but it's what you typed.

The fact that Donald Trump is President and Warner Brothers thinks that, of all the DC properties, Shazaam needs to be a two-part movie are legitimately the most surprising things in my life up to this point.

Lurdiak posted:Is "I'm sure that people will be fine due to their immense wealth" some weird thing you've never heard someone say before? I've heard people say this before many a times, and I bring up the same argument to go to bat for people who, despite being wealthy, could be very well likely be going through some heavy poo poo you are unaware of. It's more weird to me that someone would immediately hand waive someone's personal issues because they have money. It clearly shows a lack of empathy, and is more telling of that person's character, perceiving money as the solution to everything. Lurdiak posted:Jesus Christ, you people. Imo, you should look in the mirror and rephrase this to, "Jesus Christ, what the hell is wrong with me?"

OK, I think everyone has had their say now. Lurdiak said something dumb, admitted as much and it's time to move on. Are we taking bets on when Zack Snyder's Justice League vs Watchmen: Rebirth is going to be announced to start the DCEU over from scratch?

Got it. I'll agree with you on that one. X-O posted:Are we taking bets on when Zack Snyder's Justice League vs Watchmen: Rebirth is going to be announced to start the DCEU over from scratch? The Underworld and Resident Evil series made it to 5 to 6 films, respectively. I give Snyder's DCEU at least that many movies. The wheels are going to fall off after Justice League, from there, who knows how long WB will grind it out. I'm betting the Shazam two parter with the Rock is going to fall through, and The Flash will never find its director.

Normally I'd say that the cinematic universe will just keep shifting gears in an attempt to find its footing or maybe peter out instead of a line-wide reboot, but this is DC.

I think it all depends on Wonder Woman right now. Which sucks because it already had so many eyes and expectations on it for being the first major modern female superhero movie and for being the first Wonder Woman movie. Now it has even more weighing on it. To the point where being a simply pretty good film won't even be enough. Now it pretty much has to be a clear hit in every respect or the future of the DCEU is in serious condition.

The only person Armie Hammer is qualified to replace is the fry cook at Steak & Shake.

[edit] ^He's alright. I liked him in The Social Network and The Man from UNCLE. I will be so loving happy if Patty Jenkins and Gal Gadot knock it out of the park and Wonder Woman ends up being really good. But with all the turmoil surrounding the DCEU and WB's handle on its talent coming to light, my hopes for it being a critical and commercial darling are fading fast. My expectations have definitely been lowered.

I have nothing against Gal Gadot but my expectations for Wonder Woman have been so low they're right next to dinosaur bones ever since they took the talking tiger out.

Armie Hammer is actually pretty cool. Try watching J. Edgar or Birth of a Nation or Man From UNCLE or Nocturnal Animals. Skip Lone Ranger, not because of Armie Hammer though because once again it's a lovely Johnny Depp film.

Not necessarily because of the portrayal of Native Americans (though there are issues aplenty there, of course) so much as that's around the time I started to find the relentless "quirkiness" of his roles tedious.

Dude either does not care about the quality of the stuff he's in or has been extremely unlucky, but I wonder why more good directors don't try to get him in their movies considering how big of a draw and fun of an actor he is.

Depp has been dipping for over a decade at this point. I mean Black Mass is really the only thing I can think of that was good mostly on his back since maybe Finding Neverland. I can't think of another good movie he's been in since then.
