I concur.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And the theater you see it at, Steph, is going to erupt when they show the Hall of Justice on the screen.

That's been in the news the past few days, since the movie opened this week. And it is pretty damn cool!

Also, and this is not a spoiler because it was in the trailers, GG's hair is comics perfection.

The only thing missing was that we didn’t get to see Guy being punched in this movie. Ideally by Lois. and you know that Mr. Terrific already has punched him, many times.

I'm almost as excited about Nathan Fillion as a comics-perfect Guy Gardner as I am about Nicholas Hoult as Lex. (I don't expect the movie to be as gay as Smallville, but a couple of stills had a pretty gay Smallville vibe, and even a little gay will make me happy.)

That was DELIGHTFUL. Corenswet was really damn good. And Nicholas Hoult was a great Lex Luthor. Better than most. (Though it also remains true that no live-action Lex Luthor lives up to Clancy Brown's animated Lex in the Justice League cartoon. He set a high bar.)
Perfect Guy Gardner A+ 10/10 no notes.
The entire scene at the Hall of Justice really was shot inside Union Terminal. I think I missed 75% of the dialogue in that scene because my brain just kept going "It's so gorgeous and now everybody gets to see how gorgeous it is!!!"
In conclusion, I'm not wrong when I say that Jimmy Olsen's dick saved the world. Or at least stopped Lex Luthor. I did not see that one coming.

Also: I totally cried at the end of the movie when the video of Clark's parents was of the Kents. I am a big sap.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Now that was a Superman movie. Why did they ever let Zack Snyder get his hands on Superman?

Brooding Dudebros love his shit.
