  1. The same way the Venom movies worked. If the first one is successful enough then just keep making more of them.
  2. By the way if it wasn't already mentioned, the character's name is spelled N'neka. She was named after N'neka Garland, a producer on the show who recently passed away in March.
  3. Absolutely nothing in those articles you posted indicates any kind of anti-Semitism. Only one poorly conceived suggestion by an Israeli journalist that alludes to Jewish exclusion from casting. Far from "pure anti-Semitism". Also, it is very destructive and misguided to falsely equate antisemitism with support for Palestinians.
  4. Somehow I doubt this. Who is "they"? Apparently it is to Jada.
  5. Choices and intentional acts can be mistakes. They are not mutually exclusive. Haley made a choice to drive drunk, and that choice was a mistake. All the more reason for Nancy to ask for it, in my view.
  6. Oh, didn't know this. I kinda figured they would be unable to resist. Same. I'm really glad they added her and hope to see more of her organization.
  7. I wish I could say that I'm surprised by this turn of events, but I'm not. From what little I've seen of HP's social media over the years, her personality comes off like she might be the type to have a little trouble. But more than that, it's her last few appearances on GH that gave me pause. She looked like someone that was partying way too hard or worse, especially in the face. I wasn't expecting anything this horrific though. She is very lucky to be alive, and hopefully the other driver pulls through. (As for the situation with the firefighter, I can't say that I blame her for that one, especially when she was clearly under the influence.) I wonder if she and Tajh Bellow are still together? Hopefully she gets some treatment, and hopefully the show will allow her to return someday.
  8. They could definitely do a reunion series with limited episodes or a movie. Their age isn't too big a factor. It's just a matter of finding the right story, but it could be done. They could also go the animation route as well.
  9. That's really what they *should* do, but sad they probably won't... It will be odd seeing a recast Kristina together with a temp Molly.
  10. It was probably a mistake for Pinkett to even include Cleopatra to begin with. She claims that she wants to represent Black women with the series, and yet chooses a Greek ruler from colonized Egypt?
  11. Has there been any word on the reasoning behind the interracial casting? Like why there are Black parents with white children and vice versa? Is this suppose to be like a Bridgerton-type thing or something? (I don't follow that genre).
  12. Children being superheroes and crime-fighters is all a part of comic book fantasy, so it doesn't really bother me personally. I guess this series at least sidesteps the problem by having Robin be college aged.
  13. I enjoy the second opening, especially with the classic Walker theme playing. Yeah it might be less original than the first opening, but it really captures the spirit of Batman well. It's also nice when the show steps out of the Elfman/Burton shadow. I think this series was at its best when they did their own thing and weren't following the Tim Burton films.
  14. I think it aligns well with the Batman comics. Not every criminal is a supervillain like the others. For some it's just a gimmick and not much more. Given the Trio's backstory I think it makes sense for the characters. One thing I appreciate about the Animated Series is that they used stories from all throughout the different eras of Batman comics. You get episodes of silly camp right alongside the serious and dramatic stories. This was especially important for a children's cartoon show.
  15. If Victor is suppose to be Ras al-Ghul in this storyline then I guess that means Spencer is the Batman. I wonder just how much longer this Dex/Michael thing will keep going. November sweeps? Or will they just drop it altogether and have Michael forgive Sonny?
  16. I think that not every Batman villain needed to be given layers. Some characters are just greedy, sick, or love crime. I'm not sure why they even bothered giving Mr. Freeze layers, but I guess someone behind the scenes must have really liked the character.
  17. I never liked how they turned Bullock into a jerk who hates Batman for this version, but it's not a bad character dynamic I admit. I wish they had changed his first name though. Having both him and Harvey Dent in the show was irritating. Some of the "Season Two" episodes aired with the B&R intro and some didn't. And 2x02 aired over a year after 2x01.
  18. Yeah, Killer Croc was originally a criminal genius who attempted to take over all of the mobs in Gotham. It was the post-Crisis reboot where they turned him into dumb muscle in the late 80s/early 90s. The Gerry Conway run on Batman is great and the Croc arc in particular was some of his best work in my view.
  19. I was referring to both continuities actually. I don't think that Batman has an unstable psyche in either, although the comic books have toyed with the idea in recent decades. Certainly at the time Phantasm was made, Bruce in the comic books was still a sane and mentally healthy character, although just beginning to enter into an unstable era.
  20. I don't really think that it's particularly fair to compare this film to any live action attempts. Not only is it animation, it's also rooted within the universe established in the television series. Apples to oranges in my view. I don't think that Bruce is messed up at all. He's determined, and dedicated to the job, but not unstable. I'm not sure if he could ever live a normal life either, but not because of some kind of damaged psyche.
  21. I believe that Kristina is suppose to be bisexual. Maybe you were fortunate enough to miss her relationship with Professor Parker a few years back.

  23. I'm not sure exactly what it is that you're trying to say, but it doesn't help your argument when you start off by making false equivalences.
  24. What's so different about Atlantis versus Talokan? One is borrowed from Greek mythology and the other from Aztec mythology. Just because something works well doesn't mean you cannot or should not change it. And the length of time of something is even less of a reason not to change it. I think the film's story makes it clear why the director chose to make the changes that he did.
  25. Perhaps, but the point is that Supergirl's blonde hair is the result of her being white in the comic books. If you make her non-white elsewhere, then it's logical enough that her hair color should change as well.
