'Time Bomb'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Well. That's a lot of stuff.
James Gunn’s DCU slate:
That made me go check to see if the Blue Beetle movie is still being released in August. (It is.)
a Batman and Robin (Damien) movie
I'm intrigued.
I'm still in burn-it-all-down mode. None of that is tempting enough to get me to pay to see it.
The GoT in Themyscara show feels really unnecessary.
I'm also skeptical of "We're going to finally make Superman a bright paragon of hope and justice like he's meant to be, so we'll make Supergirl dark and broody instead."
ETA: I hope that them skipping straight to Damien as Robin means they'll still have the rest of the former Robins still be active in their current hero personas.
Tom King really, really, REALLY likes traumatizing his characters.
EDIT: He especially wants to traumatize characters that were previously known for being optimistic, like Wally and Dick and Kara.
a Themyscira Game of Thrones-style series
GOT-style as in complex political intrigue with high production values or GOT-style as in "we're only showing you this much graphic rape because of how much we care about historical accuracy"
How much political intrigue is there supposed to be in a utopian isolated society of immortal women ruled by the same leader for over 3000 years?
That's kind of my thinking, too. While there's occasional stories about dissenters/exiles that Diana encounters/has to deal with I don't recall there ever being opposing factions or anything like that within their society.
Maybe it's post-movie intrigue where they have to figure things out with much of their leadership dead?
