I think that Gunn wanted to do the Relevance of GL/GA, and I get the impulse. But going dark seems like a throwback to, um, the Snyderverse. Maybe it's a lot better than it looks, but oooff.
I...don't really get what they're doing with Green Lantern. I'm pretty sure an R-rated Green Lantern show is not really aimed at its largest potential audience. I *broadly* like that they're sort of doing '70s GL/GA. But it seems like a missed opportunity.
It's kind of funny how, like, I always understood robots/AI in stories as a metaphor for labor/bigotry, but thought if it was real I would be on the bad guys' side bc a toaster can't think, and now I live in the real world I have to explain to real people that a toaster can't think.
Man, didn't I just say this was a Ra's al Ghul situation? I knew it!!
I'm honestly baffled; you want these guys schmoozing Hollywood people and trying to help facilitate TV/movie shit, but you also expect that person to share an apartment with two people or live in their parents' attic?
Jeez, I just saw a major comics job for $75k **in LA?** Does it come with a time tunnel back to 1990
If Paramount *does* flame out, is there anything that stops Disney from just buying the whole kit and caboodle?
Just did an interview for a media channel in Dubai. They asked me about our war strategy. It was painful for me to explain that we had none. That the President of the United States had no idea of what he was going to do tomorrow. That the Secretary of State couldn’t remember what he said yesterday.
My research is on working class women and AI and the ONE consistency among all of the interviews we’ve done so far is concerns about data centers and environmental impact. We do not bring it up - they do. Every single one.
I hope that it matters if Paramount goes broke on paper, but I feel as tho this is an Elon style situation where these people have so much money they don't actually need to make money.
I think Netflix is planning on buying both WB *and* Paramount at the fire sale in three years.
What a fucking idiot
"Hail Hydra!"
She's like an old samurai whose great battles are behind her but every once in a while she kills a man with piece of paper just to prove a point
Once you start doing this, is it as hard to stop as I imagine
it's perfectly normal for a president's skin to start coming off like the glowing skeleton bad guy's from Batman Beyond. it's actually to be expected
this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to bomb this elementary school full of kids because he thinks it makes him look cool. also his scheming viziers will be betting money on it for fun. good luck soldier
Yes, well, today on my travels I walked into a years-dead shopping mall and I now its fucking mayor, thank you very much
people love to say "you should read conservative opinion pieces too" and every conservative opinion piece is like "corporations should have the right to vote but minorities shouldn't. source: I made it up"
Aaaand I wrote about it:

I don't remember when I discovered El's work, but I've been reading it for a decade plus and it's been both consciously and unconsciously a huge influence on my political development, my aesthetic tastes, and my writing style.
anyway you'll never read anything better on this on Neil Gaiman.
So basically Epstein would have been significantly defanged by universal healthcare and basic income.
They are all failed celebrities who think the job is being a celebrity, exemplified by kash patel who thinks his job is having government jets fly him and his girlfriend from one event to another bsky.app/profile/jkar...
When your tale of woe reads like it should end with this dude busting a gut, it may be time to reconsider your life choices

I mean for 40 years I've yearned to play guitar in Van Halen and have Kathy Ireland sit in my lap, but I guess we all have dreams
