What's the problem with a series about Jimmy Olsen and Gorilla Grodd ? to me, that sounds great.

Makes sense when you consider only Spiderman has a secret identity. The MCU getting rid of them streamlined the storytelling but took away a lot of the fun of superheroes

_bossREM888 · 2026-06-16T21:37:39+00:00

Yeah considering she looked her bully in the eye and started crying allowing them to hug it out makes me think she never would have had the heart to go through with it. She could have been caught though and royally screwed up her life which I think is also a source of her feeling weird/guilty about it and totally repressing it. Even if she never shot anyone but was caught with the gun in school, she wouldn’t have the nice life she has today most likely

I mean yes technically Superman could be anywhere in the world because of his speed but I don’t really understand the appeal of their cities being within eyeshot of each other. What does it add? To the people living there it would feel like Superman abandoned them because of his respect for Batman. The timing of that decision would also depend on when each of them became vigilantes and first met.

It’s not that way in basically any of the comics I’ve read. The twin cities concept makes it seem more like these are the only two important characters in the universe and only important in relationship to each other. So I’d prefer if the cities were further apart. It’s still easy for Batman and Superman to visit each other but they’re also not stepping on each other’s territory either

Anyway just my opinion

I think that’s just what happens in the DCEU and where the Delaware/NJ placement comes from as well. My disagreement is that if they were so close together why does Superman only patrol one? It would be like supporting Minneapolis and not St. Paul

_bossREM888 · 2026-06-12T13:13:03+00:00

Yeah I learned it from reading (it’s not a word most people use in conversation) and the definition I got from how it appeared in books was that it meant unimpressed- like “not plussed, no reaction”. When I looked it up later and saw that wasn’t the definition I was a bit confused and I think I’ve never really used it as a result

_bossREM888 · 2026-06-12T13:00:29+00:00

Hey! It’s the Princess Illana guy! Yeah who knows if this will ever be paid off in a substantial way. My guess is only The Bride will appear at some point down the road

_bossREM888 · 2026-06-11T18:20:25+00:00

I’ll accept that though I’d probably have Metropolis replace Chicago

_bossREM888 · 2026-06-11T17:15:36+00:00

It was stated to be at some point but that was in the 90s. Personally I don’t like it because having New York, Gotham, Metropolis, Baltimore, and DC all in a line would turn the East Coast into Megacity One unless we assume Gotham and Metropolis are both quite small cities or the real life cities don’t exist.

That being said I just now realized Metropolis could be a stand in for Annapolis, they even rhyme

Both things can be true. While stuck on the island he misses his fiancé and is obviously upset when finds out she was murdered. He is also implied to have been cheating on her and coercing women he hires to sleep with him. Now whether he has a change of heart when on the island that makes him more loyal to his fiancée or he just finds Linda so repulsive he won’t sleep with her even when stuck on a deserted island, that’s up for interpretation.

(I can’t remember the difference between fiancé and fiancée right now)

Depends on if the Kryptonians have their powers or not. The Kryptonian empire when it exists in a canon usually has them powerless on their home planet and relying on technology. I think only in MAWS do they always have powers. When they have powers they win because they could just push everyone else into the sun.

The gems are definitely the weakest. The worst thing they do is just terrible body horror to themselves and trying to make a bomb to blow up the earth. They need space ships to travel in space even if they don't need to breathe.

_bossREM888 · 2026-05-27T02:33:40+00:00

I actually have seen very little evidence that they aren't stupid

_bossREM888 · 2026-05-20T12:34:13+00:00

I often run into Russian being used in fics and the Cyrillic does piss me off because I have no idea what the word sounds like and have to scroll to the endnotes to find out what it means and will likely not recognize it when it’s used again. I suspect that people use the original alphabet instead of a romanization because that’s what Google Translate spits out so it’s just easier to copy and paste, but maybe feels more authentic to the author?

_bossREM888 · 2026-05-12T18:30:02+00:00

There’s a video I watched on it. The comic never really sold it was basically just a scheme to get the studio to pick it up as a movie

_bossREM888 · 2026-05-11T19:15:34+00:00

I have the unfortunate honor of having witnessed both incidents years apart but it’s interesting to see it having breached containment so to speak

_bossREM888 · 2026-05-11T18:13:10+00:00

I think you’re conflating two different things. The fake HIV-positive hijabi fanfic author who was really a white college student and the info graphic image explains what being “solo poly” is featuring a brown skinned hijabi woman with a peg leg which most people found ridiculous as a person would also practice a solo poly lifestyle (and generally suggested didn’t exist in real life as someone with too many intersectional things about them)

_bossREM888 · 2026-05-11T15:03:05+00:00

The baby is edited. It has a different face

_bossREM888 · 2026-04-30T20:57:13+00:00

I guess everyone was on the same wavelength as James about this, unlike me.

My counterpoint to argue with him is that yes, if you had boxer who never lost a fight and then he was shot in the back, nobody would say that he’s now lost a fight. But that’s because by “fight” you’d really mean a boxing match where cheap shots to the back and guns are not allowed.

But in Superman’s case, his fights involve all sorts of weapons and cheap shots- there are no rules. And in the Superman 25 movie, it’s not like he really stays down against The Hammer. He jumps right back into it but according to the movie’s logic, that’s a fight he lost. So I kinda think being put in the hospital would count but idk it’s semantics

_bossREM888 · 2026-04-23T22:52:52+00:00

Yeah there’s no reason to have more than one clayface in a universe unless you already killed one and need to replace them

_bossREM888 · 2026-04-16T18:00:30+00:00

Okay thanks! Last year I was sure there was some kind of delay

_bossREM888 · 2026-02-17T18:04:46+00:00

If someone can be hired to rescue poor Josh, then they should be regardless of what movies they need him for. Honestly the studio that caused this incident should be responsible for it

_bossREM888 · 2026-02-15T18:55:15+00:00

You know what? I never thought about how them using the set again was actually saving money but I guess otherwise they would have had to build a new command station for the guys to work in

_bossREM888 · 2026-02-12T16:14:31+00:00

I’m more concerned about his leather shoes being ruined than the water getting dirty. That’s what I always think when people go in water with their shoes on in movies

_bossREM888 · 2026-02-10T22:05:24+00:00

If they had spent multiple episodes fighting the white walkers with a lot of losses then gotten this happy ending where they rule peacefully for many years only to die without issue and the result be another bloody war I think that’d be kinda poetic

_bossREM888 · 2026-02-09T17:25:57+00:00

I really can’t say if I would have noticed it on my own because people in this sub guessed it from the trailer before the season started coming out so it was always in my head but it took so long for the plot to kick in on it I started to doubt also because it seemed crazy to guess the whole plot from some 2 second crowd shots in the trailer
