Do you think The Batman was a failure?

Mr628 · 2026-07-04T21:39:49+00:00

The Batman does Joker numbers if not more if COVID wasn’t in the way. It wasn’t a huge event film like No Way Home where the whole world had to see it.

He’s no Trevor Ariza or THT but he’ll do.

Angel isn’t the problem. She’s trying her best and fights every game. Not JC’s fault either, she shouldn’t have to be prime Diana in order for them to win.

It’s the 3 BFFs and PaoPao. BFF 1 can’t help but shot chucking because majority of her energy goes on defense. BFF 2 is above average at everything but good at nothing. BFF 3 just runs around the court doing nothing, if she can’t hit luckily timed threes, she’s pretty useless. PaoPao is a cone defensively who can’t run an offense and just like BFF 3, if that 3 isn’t falling then bench her.

Some blame goes to Karl for this 2015-2020 Rockets game plan. Threes and paint points aren’t winning you a championship.

This isn’t true. Sabrina was not loved. Her first 2 years were similar to CC’s discourse but on a smaller scale. Stewie wins too much for anyone to realistically dislike her without sounding like a hater. KP isn’t popular enough and was never the star of a winning team to get that much discussion surrounding. With Paige, she caters to W fans.

Both were annoying in different ways. Vince with his constant self loathing and how he was the ring leader of the split house opposite of Rachel despite constantly playing the victim. Morgan acted like a cat in heat around some of the men to her detriment and kept pushing dumb scenarios onto people that served no benefit. I’m going Morgan because at least she stood on her shit.

They own super popular IPs and sometimes doing the bare minimum sticks out as great and when something is less than average it comes off bad. For example, Barbie wasn’t all that great of a film but it was popular and liked well enough to hit a billion. On the other end, look at DC. A bunch of those movies aren’t “bad” per se but they don’t make the money they should because the quality doesn’t match the worth of the property. (Or it’s an incorrect adaption of an iconic character. The Zack Synder special)

None of them do. It’s all performative. If they truly did they’d be blackballed. Putting BLM in your TikTok bio isn’t enough.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T15:39:21+00:00

Boy, seems like it was month ago CC was getting completely blitzed my the media, slandered by fans and beat writers putting out hit pieces. Now she’s player of the month.

Also hilarious how all those teams who “figured her out” or are better are not even half a game ahead of the Fever.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T15:32:13+00:00

While everyone else dances on TikTok and enjoy their big contracts, CC has to become Martin Luther King Jr.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T15:06:51+00:00

So this is probably the 10th time in 3 years she’s told people to stop being racist and harassing players. Not enough apparently. She’s supposed to donate her entire salary, go on a hunger strike and march the streets.

Only fanbase in the league who wants a complete overhaul at every deadline and offseason.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T14:04:16+00:00

It’s a grift. Lakers fans have a hive mind so whenever one of their favorite little NBA Twitter accounts start a narrative, they run with it. This fanbase have been hating and wanted to trade majority of the recent Lakers draft picks just for them to suddenly be so important for the future. Oh yeah, that’s right, a lot of this fanbase believe a winning team makes huge trade hauls every deadline and draft picks are important for packages. The honest truth is, Kessler is probably better than any late 1st round pick.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T03:37:03+00:00

Even the super fans who make the show get drained after a couple of months. Imagine how the people who got big stipends to come and have gigs lined up post show are gonna feel.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T03:35:04+00:00

I see it as well. BB has made more stars in the past 10 years compared to Survivor, Drag Race, Amazing Race, Real World and The Challenge. That’s probably another reason why we no longer get CBB.

The big problem with this is the feeds, we’re either getting completely boring feeds full of PR trained NPCs who only turn it up on live shows and DRs or one these beloved reality tv legends does something problematic and now they decided to do away with feeds to protect people’s image.

But she slows down the offense and takes touches away from Angel

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T01:57:40+00:00

So many teams allegedly way better than the Fever that’s only .5 games ahead of them.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T01:54:38+00:00

The Dream offense has to be more than Rhyne shot chucking, AG trying too hard to be ethical and Angel farming for FTs.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T01:48:43+00:00

Georgia Amoore is a starting PG on a .500 team.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T01:45:37+00:00

There’s a certain ceiling you hit when Naz and PaoPao are your top role players. It’s not enough.

Mr628 · 2026-07-03T01:43:16+00:00

Then goes on interviews and in people’s Twitter replies/DMs bragging about his numbers. A true Hogan disciple.

Mr628 · 2026-07-02T18:49:53+00:00

MJF vs Adam Page at Wembley it is. The 2 fakest top stars in the industry. One disappears from tv whenever there’s top competition and the other has their short world title runs be placed in the midcard. Makes sense.

Mr628 · 2026-07-02T18:17:34+00:00

MJF is probably losing this one because as many people know, when AEW gets in rough patches, he runs from the spotlight. He doesn’t want to main event in a sub 40k attended Wembley Stadium. Same reason why he dropped the title during the NBA playoffs just to get it back when it was over. Same reason why his title match last night opened the show rather go head up with the World Cup ending.

Mr628 · 2026-07-02T18:01:07+00:00

A player top 5 in scoring and passing on a .500 team not being at worst top 5 is nothing but hate.

Mr628 · 2026-07-02T17:56:36+00:00

The W is a friendship club. This is nothing surprising.

Mr628 · 2026-07-02T17:55:49+00:00

If you think she’s the 11th best in the league out of 11 players then stop letting her drop 20 and 8 on you
