searching our hearts for so long

Four things make a post:

1. I have been enjoying the terrible reviews of Batman vs. Superman so much. SO MUCH. I know that this movie is going to make bank regardless but if terrible reviews and poor word of mouth means it fails to meet internal box office projections and has a severe dropoff after its opening weekend, I will be pleased, because

What makes me sad is that Henry is still a weak spot in his own movie. God, that face and body! If only he could emote lol

And yes, even before I heard of Captain America or Iron Man when I was a kid back in the Cretaceous period, I knew of Superman & Batman. I lived off the reruns of George Reeves' Superman and Adam West & Burt Ward, until Christopher Reeves flew counter clockwise to rewind time (writing that just makes me cackle). Iconic. But not as iconic as Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman -- so I hope they don't fuck that up. I'm still unsure about Gal as Diana/WW but I'm excited about the news that Connie Nielsen is WonderMommy and Robin Wright is one of her aunts.

p.s. I'm also here for Jason Momoa as Aquaman though I don't care for Ezra Miller as Flash.

Yeah, I haven't seen him in anything else (I don't think?) so I don't know if he can actually act, but it's a sad thing when the franchise star is listed as one of the film's major liabilities. (Though it could also be the writing. It sounds like a lot of it is the writing.)

I really hope that Wonder Woman and Aquaman are decent! I am not interested in a non-Grant Gustin Flash though.

The Man From UNCLE was fun, and my mom says it's probably his audition reel for James Bond.

Wonder Woman: Someone invent a time machine and get a younger Gina Torres to play her.

I'm actually curious about Aquaman but as much as I don't like Grant Gustin, I dislike Ezra Miller even more. Is he playing Barry too?

[musesfool]

Yeah, it's Barry in the films too, which I don't understand, but whatever. Almost nothing DC has done with these movies makes sense to me.

I read another review that doesn't make me happy that I'm accompanying my mom to yet another disaster. And yes, we watched MoS too. Anyway, Bats is a psycho and Supes is a sociopath. Yay.

I wish Civil War was happening first.
