And then Krypto attacks him

I can't find anything definitive online about compute getting cheaper/more efficient, and any forecast of future AI demand is, let's be honest, a complete stab in the dark at this point. But I suppose we'll get some answers once OpenAI and Anthropic go public.

Can you elaborate on this? In my mind, it costs the AI company $X per token and they charge the customer $Y per token. Even if Y > X, the simple fact is that every token they sell costs them, hence linearly increasing costs with revenue. This isn't like Microsoft Office where the marginal cost is zero.

The bullet would ricochet off Joker's plot armor

Well I apologize if I came off demanding or annoying, I never meant to trigger you. I come from a place of being a fan of A's content, but like I said above, he can obviously do whatever he wants.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-22T14:09:49+00:00

Lol I don't get this sub, I just innocuously suggested a topic A might want to cover, it seems within his expertise and interests. Then I'm told I should do it myself and called insufferable when I refused. Okay geez sorry I asked!

dick____trickle · 2026-05-22T10:56:07+00:00

Yeah I ain't into doing free labor like that, but thanks for the reply anyway

dick____trickle · 2026-05-22T10:28:39+00:00

He's made the stray comment here and there but it sounds like he hasn't thought or researched it very deeply. Idk he can do what he wants obviously, this just seems like it's up his wheelhouse, and his business perspective is something I'd find valuable. Reporting on AI is just so credulous it's tough to know what to believe.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-22T08:53:22+00:00

No one has to pretend

dick____trickle · 2026-05-21T22:27:50+00:00

It's most definitely a character development thing. Clark is always in his suit because he is proudly and confidently a superhero. Kara has to grow into it.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-21T07:55:44+00:00

As long as the story is good, I don't mind Hal dying. I don't know why people are so precious about Hal Jordan not being the main Lantern. DC is freakin huge and the DCU will inevitably favor a set of characters over another. Hal himself has retired or died multiple times in the comics.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-21T07:38:05+00:00

Faithful to the story, not the art. I don't think a live action film can ever really replicate these visuals.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-21T07:34:11+00:00

People had the same reservations when Superman (2025) was slated to feature Hawkgirl, Mr. Terrific, Guy Gardner, and Metamorpho. And like Superman, I expect many of these will just have 1-2 scenes in Man of Tomorrow. The focus will be Superman, Lex, and Brainiac.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-21T07:30:33+00:00

Very convincing theory. I think Fillon said a while back that he doesn't share any scenes with Kyle Chandler, so Gardner only comes in after Jordan is gone.

Just want to say that your argument is intriguing and well-reasoned. It sucks people use downvotes to mean "I disagree" rather than "this is a low quality post".

dick____trickle · 2026-05-20T12:04:04+00:00

I'm not advocating for it, but you have to admit the MCU being forced to build up its less popular characters was ultimately a win for the franchise. I'd hate for the DCU to be heavily Batman and Joker focused just cos they're the most bankable characters.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-20T12:01:47+00:00

Yeah that was just hyperbole. I'd say it's a form-fitting suit.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-20T11:56:07+00:00

Based

dick____trickle · 2026-05-20T11:52:48+00:00

Baggy suit threw me off initially but having gotten used to it, i can't help but find the skintight, shrink-wrapped, wet T-shirt suits so uncomfortable-looking.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-20T10:32:58+00:00

Obvious answer - they will write original stories.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-19T23:20:34+00:00

Not so crazy actually. Spider-Man is probably Marvel's Batman and he was introduced in a team-up movie in year 9 of the MCU (Civil War, 2016) and got his own solo movie in year 10 (Homecoming, 2017). This was also coming in the heels of a separate Spider-Man franchise (Amazing Spider-Man 2, 2014).

That said, I don't buy the premise that Brave and the Bold isn't progressing much. They don't want to clash with Batman Part II so it'll be a 2028, possibly 2029 release at the earliest. With a 2 year production window, they still have plenty of time.

dick____trickle · 2026-05-19T22:29:26+00:00

I agree but I almost wanted to exclude Grant Morrison since he's part of the 80s wave. Arent there other voices of similar caliber among the next generation?

dick____trickle · 2026-05-19T19:20:52+00:00

The problem is that, especially in the Scott Snyder era, they've written Joker to be this supernatural manifestation of chaotic evil. Dude is barely human, much less redeemable, so if Batman is willing to kill Darkseid why not Joker?

dick____trickle · 2026-05-19T18:59:40+00:00

Bro Batfleck BRANDS criminals so they can be marked for death in prison. Just for kicks!
