And Joel Schumaker quickly regressed.
And Chris Nolan may wind up rescuing the franchise and elevating it to a whole new level.
I have my hopes.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

It's so cute how not-jaded you are, despite living in the belly of the beast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, at the very least, it doesn't look campily homoerotic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The thing about WW having to be white -- is Bullseye not a "known" enough character for it to matter? What about the current Ving Rhames Kojak thing? I'm not saying it's likely, but I don't think it's impossible. Of course, a non-white WW still wouldn't lead to Gina Torres getting the part.

Though I can see the potential for Liam Neeson and Christian Bale to bring a sort of master/student homoerotic pain to it.
I would be okay with that.
Just no Bat Shark Repellant.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Why couldn't they have waited to get rid of the campy homoeroticism until a few movies after Christian Bale joined the franchise?

I'm still in a Liam Neeson/Christian Bale place. Because Liam Neeson/Peter Sarsgaard in Kinsey = HOTTTTT.

Not Bullseye -- Kingpin. And probably not, although I did hear people bitch about the PCness (of casting a black guy as a criminal -- so right).
Matt, do you need it to be campy? Can't it just be fraught?

Not Bullseye -- Kingpin.
Oh yeah, der.
