  1. Wonder Woman just became the Highest Grossing Superhero Origin Film ever domestically, passing the first Spider-man!
  2. Wonder Woman 2 being released on December 13, 2019! http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/wonder-woman-2-release-date-set-1022782?utm_source=twitter
  3. I don't know why there HAS to be a love interest. The Wonder Woman show had her working with Steve Trevor's son who looked exactly like his father, and they were just friends. It worked better that way.
  4. ‘Wonder Woman’: Female and Older Moviegoers Powered Box Office, New Study Shows http://variety.com/2017/film/news/wonder-woman-study-box-office-1202488262/ Wonder Woman having a large female audience was expected, but it has also been getting older audiences and more of those people that usually don't go see movies in theaters to see it. Pretty cool!
  5. My problem with Henry Cavill making more money is that I find Cavill's Superman to be one of the worst superheroes in the modern era. The guy is bland as white bread, not much of a personality, needed to be told to be hero by his space dad, and is mopey as hell. Call him Mopeyman instead of Superman. I don't know how much of this is his acting or the writing, but even good actors can elevate badly written material. The colorless world that Zack keeps using REALLY doesn't help. Batman isn't much better, being a huge dickweed that brands criminals. Ben Affleck also gives off a "I don't give a shit" vibe, just look at all the SAD Affleck memes that have exploded online. Wonder Woman is the first DCEU hero that I actually like. I WANT to rewatch her movie, I WANT to see her sequel.
  6. Best part about finishing the series finale? I NEVER have to watch any more scenes with that creepy Diana actress. What an AWFUL child actress. Another reason why I consider the first three seasons of Grimm to be the golden years, and the ones that I will rewatch in the future.
  7. I will never understood why they didn't go the route of Juliette turning Wesen but basically stay the same person, no trailer burning or helping kill mom involved. I think everyone was expecting Juliette to have trouble getting through the change, but basically find a way to stay good instead of what we go. A' Grimm being engaged to a Hexenbiest would have been an interesting twist (Juliette NOT Adalind). I get that showrunners wanted to do something new with the human girlfriend thing, but they practically character assassinated her. You can't have a character do horrible stuff like that and expect the audience to want her to stick around.
  8. I was really expecting the writers to kill Adalind and leave her dead, not because I hate her but because she was the most expendable out of the cast. Nick would be a single parent dad which would satisfy all the Nadaline haters, and Renard could raise creepy Diana. In my head, I can still pretend Adalind was run over by a car and killed when buying groceries one month after Skull man was beaten. The "mom" referred to at the end would be a completely new unseen woman that Nick married. I never expected them to kill Eve, Bistie being engaged to the lead actor and all that. It's a shame the writers could never figure out any interesting storylines for her. In my head, Eve left Portland one week after Skully was beaten and was never heard from again. Since the main characters keep forgetting her crimes, they might as well completely forget about her too.
  9. I will never understand the hate Trubel gets. She was barely on the show outside of season 5, and Nick was always the main Grimm that did everything important. Besides, Nick was never the Chosen One, there have always been other Grimms so he wasn't suppose to be like the Slayer or anything and even Buffy introduced a second slayer in the season 3. Now Juliette and Adalind were the ones that really felt unnecessary, the writers didn't know that to do with those characters after season one and their storylines suffered badly. Claire Coffee at least never disappointed in the acting the department, while Bitsie's acting was never good enough for what the writers gave her and she never rose above wooden. I was hoping Nick would fall for a normal woman with zero baggage after Juliette's death. Nick didn't have to "settle" for Adalind or Juliette, he was way better than either of them.
  10. Grimm Showrunners Explain Series Finale "The End" and Answer Lingering Questions http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/04/01/grimm-showrunners-explain-series-finale-the-end-and-answer-lingering-questions
  11. Anyone else feel really uncomfortable watching Nick in that extended fight scene with Trubel? It was nicely choreographed, but watching him just wail on her was hard to endure, especially now that we know she is his cousin. I guess Trubel haters are happy to know that Nick is better? Poor Trubel for trying to save the world by trying to prevent that idiot Nick from giving the Stick to old Skully. I'm really glad Trubel has no memory of that happening now.
  12. But I'm glad we had the flash forward instead of the writers using that time to explain in detail what the heck just happened. It would have been nice if those TWO MINUTES used to promote another upcoming NBC show was given to Grimm instead to make it a longer episode. Thanks, NBC. Not.
  13. So the bad reality was erased, and Nick just went back to a reality where Skull man never came to the real world. Thanks for the clarification, Kouf. http://www.ign.com/articles/2017/04/01/grimm-showrunners-explain-series-finale-the-end-and-answer-lingering-questions
  14. The place Nick arrived at after going through the portal looked like a different reality/dimension. The hint is that Adalind isn't wearing the ring, if Nick had time traveled to the past she would still be wearing it. Monroe talked about the Schroedinger cat experiment and different dimensions in "Where the Wild Things Were". Schrodinger's Cat. Wait a minute, are you talking about that thought experiment with the cat in the box with the poison? - What are you talking about? - Exactly. Cat in a closed box with poison. 50% chance the cat will be killed by the poison or will survive. Right But because the box is closed, two dimensions exist simultaneously. One where the cat is alive, one where it's dead. And as long as the box stays closed, both realities exist. It's only when we open the box that we close off one of the dimensions. So if Nick and Eve went through this other dimension It'd be like opening the box. That would not be a good thing. So if we're alive in this world, does that mean that in the other place, they're not? I saw a Reddit post by MrCheapskate_toyou that tried to explain it better "It comes back to Schroedinger's cat. The portal transported Nick (and maybe Diana) to a different universe, exactly like his own, except that his friends are all alive. They're still dead in the "real" universe. They exist in both universes simultaneously, alive and dead."
  15. I enjoyed the finale. I was really glad that the last time we saw Mama Kelly and Aunt Marie was of them being tough and kicking ass, instead their actual sad fates. All those scenes with all those Grimm together (3 and later 4 with Trubel aka Nick's cousin confirmed) was worth this shaky season. The skull man was introduced way too late, should have brought him in at the start of the season and built him up more. I will never get aboard the Nadalind ship, so I'll remember Nick got baby Kelly out of the deal. I'll be happy for Nick and move on. Those final scenes could be seen as Nick jumping into another "Good" alternate reality with everyone he cares about alive which makes a hell of more sense than time travel. Monroe talked about the Schrodinger cat experiment a few episodes back, in the real reality everyone is gone, but in another reality Nick gets his happy ending. I was happy to see the new trailer with weapons in the flash forward. The casting department did a good job getting an actor that resembled Nick so much, and Diana finally FINALLY outgrew her creepy horror movie child phase! Very relieved to see them not ruin the scene by showing the main characters older, old age makeup tends to be terrible. Grimm started with three great seasons, and the last three were watchable mainly because of the actors. But the most impressive thing about it was surviving the Friday Night Death Slot for 6 seasons.
  16. I've always disliked Diana's actress. She gives off a creepy child horror movie vibe and her entire storyline is one of the worst things about the series. It doesn't help that she looks like mini Adalind, who I also never liked.
  17. Hank and Wu better not be dead. Such a stupid way to die. They knew Skull man couldn't be harmed by bullets already since Nick already tried that, yet they go after him with guns! They should have used a rocket launcher! Nice that the writers just hurriedly swept the Black Claw storyline under the carpet, the writers never cared about that storyline or Mayor Renard so should the audience? Also Juliette getting a Get Out of Jail Free card by instantly becoming human with zero effort.
  18. I'm ready to declare this season a complete failure next week.
  19. Something big should be happening to Nick or Nick is doing something huge since he is the main character and all that, but instead Nick is reacting to the mess Juliette has gotten herself in. Why has he become a cleaner? All the other characters should be serving his story not the other way around!
  20. So why are the writers choosing to focus on Juliette in what looks to be the final episodes? Shouldn't the final episodes be ENTIRELY about Nick since it is his show and all that?
  21. I can't believe how badly the show is spinning its wheels right now in its last season. I couldn't care less about the symbols, CGI skull, Diana, or NotJuliette right now, so I guess this year's arc is also tanking. Damn.
  22. Adalind's death incoming in 3... 2.... 1.... to make way for the NickJuliette ship. Diana will grow up super quickly into stupid sexy teen and be taken out of the storyline, so Juliette can raise the baby Kelly with Nick. Nick's mom will also be revealed to be alive if they want to complete the Juliette redemption.
  23. So I guess the digging Wesen bite off more than he could chew?
  24. That ending for the Wesen of the week was great. Funny and badass. Is this the first time the victim on the show saved herself/himself on this show? Why couldn't we have spent more time with the hippo Wesen instead of boring Eve dragging herself around? The rest of the episode was forgettable. I'm starting to really hate the stick and the symbols, talk about dragged out plot lines! They just keep repeating the same thing over and over and over again. The stick is weird, the symbols are weird. Blah. Renard being shirtless again to distract everyone into not realizing the ghost plot is going no where fast. Writers we are on to you now! The big arcs this season aren't working. This season should have been all Wesen of the week episodes and a 2 hour series finale, instead of being so dragged out.
  25. Was anyone else expecting the family of bear Wesen from season one (they could change fully into animals, talk about Early Installment Weirdness) to burst through the wall and go "OH! YEAH!" when the bear thing was mentioned? Just me? Okay...
