He's been an antivaxxer and supported RFK Jr. And since RFK Jr isnt running, he said to vote for Trump.

Henry Cavill singlehandedly holding up the "not a piece of shit" banner for the cinematic Justice League...

I, for one, an happy to let the DCEU die. Burn it down and start fresh. Don't know if James Gunn's DC universe will be better, but... it would be hard pressed to be worse. At minimum it will rid itself of a lot of baggage.

[–] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 months ago

Not everything James Gunn makes is great but it's almost always entertaining.

I don't disagree, but there has been some decent stuff. In particular, I just started Doom Patrol for the first time and I'm really enjoying it

[–] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Doom Patrol is pretty cool. I never finished it, but I appreciate that they embrace the weirdness. But it is separate from the DCEU. They are not connected at all. Thats why Cyborg in Doom Patrol is nothing like the Cyborg in the Justice League. Doom Patrol was spun off from the Titans tv show.

[–] NielsBohron@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Ah, got it. I never even saw most of the DC movies or shows post Nolan-era Batman, so I was unaware of the distinction.

No clue who Zachary Levi is, but at first I thought he was Zachary Quinto and was really surprised.

[–] assembly@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I had no idea either. Looks like he played the red guy in that Shazam movie.

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Two Shazam movies. Both sucked.

[–] assembly@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Damn I didn’t even know there was more than one.

[–] Lyre@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago

Bro same, i was like no what did mr spock do??

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I loved him. He starred in Chuck which was an incredibly fun show with Adam Baldwin (that may not have aged very well-every female character had to be super sexualized).

[–] TwinTusks@bitforged.space 4 points 2 months ago

He starred in Chuck

He's CHUCK??? Oh man.

[–] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Same here. I started to get skeptical when he passive aggressively gave Dwayne Johnson some flak for not agreeing to always in Shazam (2?).

Then I saw his appearance on Pete Holmes' You Made It Weird and got worse vibes.

And now this. Damn. Chuck would despise today's Zachary Levi.

[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

So glad I'm not the only one that confused the two lol. I was about to lose my mind if Quinto went log cabin.

[–] hellothere@sh.itjust.works 29 points 2 months ago

Dammit Chuck.

Context?

He later announced his endorsement for Donald Trump, telling the crowd, "For a long time, I was like 'Man, I really want to find a politician that represents all of the things I want and I want to see in a Presidential candidate, and this year I found Bobby Kennedy and I thought, 'Man, this guy.

[–] wildcardology@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Thanks, I liked him as an actor. Didn't know his political affiliation.

[–] Norin@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Arcade Gannon would be so disappointed in his voice actor.

[–] silly_crotch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

I liked Chuck but Zach Levi always seemed like a guy who believes he is the shit. So this checks out.

[–] geekwithsoul@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

I never really liked him in anything. Kinda makes sense now.

[–] Soup@lemmy.cafe 1 points 2 months ago

Never heard of him, but now I know he’s a huge douche.
