OT: Movies/TV Shows

I mean there are a shittonne of bad shows, but when you get three shows as good as Saul and Andor and Dragons in the same year things are actually good.

We're just spoiled.
 
Yeah there have always been way more shit shows than good ones. Same goes for music. The ratio hasn't really changed, we just don't remember the bad ones.

If I'm wrong because I didn't enjoy Friends as much as Arrested Development, then I don't want to be right.

I enjoyed Arrested Development more as well but I give props to the producers of Friends. I mean when cast members are paid a million an episode you’ve arrived as a show.

Spoiled? No.

Over the top? Mmm. Yea.
 
Holy crap DC Films are in such a mess.

Cavill and Gadot are now out. Man of Steel 2, Wonder Women 3 cancelled. Black Adam 2 shelved.

What a clusterfuck. I truly wish Warner Brothers would sell DC because they keep fucking it up.
 
They deserve it with how they treated Snyder after his daughter died.

Snyder was willing to stay on and finish the movie, but WB was fighting him every inch of the way on his vision (which turned out well superior to what they wanted) and he said fuck it and walked.

They could have had a viable DCU but they couldn't get out of their own way.

Completely agree.
And yes the Snyderverse was viable if the WB just got out of the way.

They fucked Superman up in the 80’s when they got rid of Donner. They fucked Batman up in the 90’s when they dumped Burton. And now they have destroyed the DCEU/Snyderverse.

Patti Jenkins just tweeted all about this. She did not walk off WW3, she wanted to make it work but it was essentially James Gunn and his partner that said no.

Sounds like Memoa is out as Aquaman after this next one.
 
I do not understand what they are doing. They already have Shazam coming out, The Flash and Aquaman.

Cavill and Gadot have already filmed cameos for The Flash. Afleck is supposed to be in Flash and Aquaman.

Black Adam just debuted a couple of months ago to much hype (it was meh) and Cavill does a surprise cameo. Plus follows it up with an announcement that he is back.

Black Adam vs Superman is what they appeared to be building. Plus Adam vs Shazam.

Gal Gadot announces a couple of weeks ago that things are moving forward with WW3.

the only movies that will not be touched are The Batman and The Joker since they are stand alone. Everything else appears halted.
 
I just came across it on Hulu. It’s like original thought is dead.

As for DC, it’s criminal what they’ve done. I was always DC > Marvel but in the movies they’re getting their asses kicked.

I agree, I have always been DC over Marvel as well. I did always like X-Men and Spiderman but give me DC everyday.

What the WB has done to these characters and the actors playing them is just criminal.

Weird how the DC animated universe seems to get significantly more right than the DCU.

That's been crap for years too. They were amazing for a while and then completely dropped off when they couldn't pay someone for an original script and just started making bad imitations of classic stories from the comics instead.

I respect and appreciate how well Friends hit the sweet spot of shared risk between the viewer and the characters. The characters appealed to the lowest common denominator in a major way that was rare even for the time. It was mindless, unfunny, atrocious television, but they still managed to hook millions and millions of viewers to tune in every single week. I appreciate that about any form of entertainment. It's almost even more respectable when the product is objectively horrible.

How many full episodes did you watch to determine that it was shit?
