If you want to see Leslie naked, go see the Deadpool movie.

It's hard to feel sorry for Kringle dying. I mean she ignored a whole bunch of warning signs about Nygma. On a side note, I'm fairly certain it takes longer to lethally choke someone. On a sidenote, I was surprised to see Silver St Cloud.

Huh. They went through the whole origin story in just a few episodes. Figured they could drag it out a bit longer than that.

So the "female Joker" made an appearance, although it's less a "joker" and more of punk rock singer with similar make-up. Me thinks someone was negative hyping for ratings.
Anyway, they actually picked the right actor to play the role: Lori Petty. She is more Harley than Joker, but really is neither, and comes off as more of a balanced rebel who dislikes authority rather than being an actual criminal (not yet, anyway). Feels more like Catwoman. Like a person who was once frustrated with the world, but is now too tired to care, and just helps inconvenience "the man" when she can.
If she is meant to be the new Fish, then f*ck ya! She is a gajillion times more likeable.
But it's still early, so we'll see how it goes. Leslie started out great too. Now she's pretty blah. Seems like her only purpose now is to nag Gordan.

The cancer that nearly killed me was more likeable then Fish. That's how much I hated her. I think the problem I have with the show is otherwise intelligent character being hit with the idiot ball for plot purposes.

Penguin has been released from Arkham, so hopefully he'll stir things back up.
Huh. Didn't realize Hugo Strange was such a major player in the Batman universe. He only appears in one episode of the animated series.

He basically did the thing he was most famous for in that episode, uncover Batman's secret identity and try to sell it. I could be wrong, but I think Silver also appeared during his arc. She's actually good in comics.

Yeah, when you mentioned that you were surprised to see her, I looked her up. Night and day difference between the two. The original one is just an innocent.

It's good twist for her though I can't help but feel Bruce's first girlfriend (who's name eludes me, though I think it's a Julie) who was an actress would have been a better choice. Speaking Bruce, he's been given a bit more to do this season, and his actor is doing well.

You still on season two, or did season 3 get going?

I just got a Harly Quinn #1 comic in my Loot Crate this month (not my idea; it was my sister's). Turns out some of this Loot Crate stuff is worth something. I had no idea. Apparently this particular issue is exclusive to Loot Crate so I have no idea how valuable it is. Stupid me, I took it out of its packaging, but it's not like it was heavily handled or anything.

By season 3, do you mean Wrath of The Villains? It was my understanding that it was second half of season 2.

I hate this half-season thing. Feels like a new season.
Yes, did the second half get going yet?

Yes it's started. We're on the Freeze mini-arc so far.

No. With no way to record shows I couldn't risk missing any. There are no later versions and they don't show reruns of major shows anymore unless it's on a smaller network (like Walking Dead).

Turns out Warner Bros. is concerned about B vs. S major drop-off in sales and now they're reshooting some scenes in Suicide Squad to be more light hearted. They're also replanning their entire approach to all future DC movies. They don't want to copycat Marvel, but they have also acknowledged that audiences prefer the more fun tone of Marvel movies.
Of course, this just sounds like excuses to me. Dark movies can be very good and highly successful.

I don't want to say anything about the movie until you've seen it. It's sad if that's the case. The reason I prefer DC is the darker tone.

The second season of Daredevil was as dark as they can get, yet it was definitely enjoyable. The movie probably just sucks.

Apparently the film did well enough to warrant Ben Affleck's Batman getting his own film. I really hope they do their own version of the Red Hood arc, though the animated film version of that was fairly decent.

Post by TG Barighm on Apr 18, 2016 11:36:10 GMT -5
Actually, no. A part of Affleck's contract REQUIRES that he gets his own film in the future and has little to do with the success of this movie.

Then that's either lazy/incompetant reporting, or delibrately misleading reporting that I've suffered. I won't say anymore as I'll likely lapse into spoilers.

Well, yeesh, I don't know for sure. That's just what I read. The contract thing could be wrong.

Well whatever the truth is, we're getting another Batman movie.
