@restoreZSJL @LopzMoya My guy, you started with the outlandish take that Gunn is anti DC. I said that if you’re hating on Gunn for taking creative liberties with these characters what about the creative liberties Snyder has taken most of which are more over the top than anything Gunn has attempted.

@spooky_nigga Not gonna lie i agree with you somewhat here, i loved the bonding of the two but for a penultimate episode the only reveal we got was sinestro is on this planet. I would have loved an extra 15 minutes of action setting up the mayhem that looks to be in store for next ep.

@LopzMoya @restoreZSJL In modern mainline continuities Batman has never used lethal force, the one departure from that was in final crisis where he shoots Darkseid with the Radion bullet. Morrison then made sure we understood how much of a once in a lifetime event that was. So it is very much new.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@SirBylHolte So your thesis is that creatives would rather piss us off than make money. Lanterns is great for most. Supergirl was an ok movie with flaws that was unrightfully crucified. Superman was probably the greatest characterization of Superman since the Donner movies.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@LopzMoya @restoreZSJL By the way i missed a comma batman kills was one point. Jimmy Olsen working for the CIA is another. The first of those two being the most egregious deviation because Batman’s no killing rule goes back to the most iconic origin story in the history of comics.

@LopzMoya @restoreZSJL And he’s also on record saying that Lois’ kid whether Superman or Bruce’s would have been powerless and Bruce’s replacement. Where’s the reverence for the lore my guy.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@MightyMike616 If this is your take i hope you also hate Man of Steel, because Snyder asks the same question even goes to show Clark going to trial.

@bekoumovies Also wan rushed!?!? Aquaman came out in 2018, sequel came out 5 years later how tf is that rushed it was just an ok movie about a character no one cared about because we all knew the reboot was incoming.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@bekoumovies Your claims about Patty Jenkins is false she was fully in charge of a sequel that did poorly then while in talks to do a third James Gunn was hired making a 3rd movie convaluted and ultimately Gunn decided to prioritize the dcu’s version of the character.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@bekoumovies WB was trying to figure out a way to get us the consumer movies while there was a global pandemic limiting us from going to the movie theaters obvi film makers bucked but it wasn’t some long feaud Nolan himself has said it’s water under the bridge.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@CalistusOb46441 The show sets them both up as flawed characters. Hal even calls John out on it that’s why he reacts in the dinner. Hal’s isn’t unlikable they took his character from the comics and allowed you to see how it would effect a character who ages. Hal loves being a GL over everything.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@spooky_nigga And the idea that she has no feats isn’t really the point of her character she has extreme PTSD from her assault, the point of her character is that for her just getting out of bed requires immense will. She has other feats but i can’t fit it here.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@spooky_nigga @Arthur65381575 Jade isn’t a green lantern she’s the daughter of a green lantern, a green lantern who doesn’t share the same mythos as our modern day GL. She can manipulate hard light but isn’t a lantern. Jessica Cruz is the first official lantern to receive the ring in its traditional sense

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@omurusamuel22 Hal told him not to tell anyone, which includes Kerri where he was there’s clearly a larger issue in rushville that Hal came back to figure out and he knew he would be pursued that night and he wanted to keep John safe. He then left a message only John would understand.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@Manny4p You know you’re referencing multiple modern retcons as your “source material”, right? It’s almost as if when you let writers and creators express them selves, we get new, fun, and exciting stories. Also Atrocitus is not the embodiment of rage he becomes the leader of the reds.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@Lobonunpurosu Probably a 7 i love the stuff he has put out but he needs to do a better job of balancing being a studio head and a filmmaker the film maker is winning and it’s hurting the DCU brand we need to see more urgency in getting the heavy hitters out.

[Arlington H. @arlygar79]

@Itssan17 My point about Carol aside, i love your take it’s more nuanced than most of the takes of seen on line where ppl either hate the show but refuse to articulate why or just blatantly can’t tell the difference between rejecting the source and purposely deviating.
