Grandmothers are famously the target demographic for superhero slop.

[-] Zier@fedia.io 10 points 1 hour ago

So we get movies about 'superheroes' who are pedophiles now?? No thanks, I'll pass.

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 1 points 12 minutes ago

Stupid endlessly deepening rock bottom pit for DC lol

[-] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 1 points 13 minutes ago

The 1960's CCA would cream their pants if they saw this.

no cause the veggie tales creator supports LGBT+ rights.

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 hours ago

Nah, absolutely this instead:

Jokes aside, I've heard the original actor for the series was absolutely not a nice person off screen. Cannot find much about that, though. So take it with a grain of salt.

Coincidentally, I remember watching a video of people reacting to Bibleman and one person was commenting about how they stayed home to play Mega Man when given the option of that or being an extra for a Bibleman episode.

Regardless, definitely gives those exact vibes turned up.

Lean and mean, green machine

[-] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 hours ago

I mean I would watch it though

[-] mefisdo_dot_info@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 hour ago

Weird how the first thing the new Christian DC Outlook does is getting rid of the guy who made Nazis the bad guys at DC isn't it?

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Nazis the bad guys at DC? Which movie had Nazis or analogs?

Robot just calls everybody a Nazis

I forgot about peacemaker season 2, but in my defense everybody has forgotten too.

[-] MrNobody@quokk.au 9 points 1 hour ago

They were literal fucking Nazis

Robot just calls everybody a Nazi

Enlightened centrist alert.

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

That was the joke of the character. They would point at anybody they wanted dead and say "hey those are Nazis"

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 5 points 49 minutes ago

And everyone he wanted dead turned out to be nazis.

[-] mofongo@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

It only happened once. And incels are Nazi adjacent.

[-] dou9m@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 hours ago

Pretty typical of religious people, they love being subjugated by anyone they perceive as higher on the hierarchal spectrum

[-] neuracnu@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 3 hours ago

Hey, hey, I've seen this one! I've seen this one! This is a classic!

[-] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 hours ago

Wasn't James Gunn the DCU Head prior to this? He did the superman reboot that was pretty good, what happened?...Or is this unrelated?

[-] MrNobody@quokk.au 14 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

SkyDance, who were allowed to merge with Paramount via the Trump run FCC now owns DC through its purchase of Warner Bros. David Ellison the owner is an ally of Trumps.

The far right are taking control of nearly all media and digital services to ensure they can push their propaganda and shape future generations.

James Gunn bought a sort of “Kill Nazis” vibe to the company that fascists don’t really like.

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago

They made a movie which wasn't a success, so better burn everything and start all over again.

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 7 points 1 hour ago

Which is unequivocally why the movies continue to suck

[-] riskable@programming.dev 9 points 3 hours ago

In short, he wants to make super boring movies.

[-] lath@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago

More John Constantine movies then.

[-] Yucky_Dimension@lemmy.world 2 points 40 minutes ago

Is there a term for reverse monkey's paw?

[-] deadbeef79000 13 points 3 hours ago

No, not like that!

Christians, probably.

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Oh that sounds like fun and totally box office potential.

Idiots

[-] deadbeef79000 9 points 3 hours ago

They'll rename it JC Comics.

[-] dracc@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 hours ago

Funny that the article quoted by Wikipedia as supporting this stance says the polar opposite, is (co-)written by an AI and was last updated about 27 hours after it first launched.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

Excited for a new line of "Calvin & Hobbes Prayer Bumper Sticker" ass content from a publisher that hasn't had a good new idea in 20 years.

[-] bashibazouk@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

He does. The question is does he want to do it through DC studios or through Wonder Project, which he helped create and was specifically designed for christian faith and family movies...

[-] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

Praise the Lord! Batman is here to save us from Beelzebub!

Man, just can't figure out their recipe

[-] Herbie@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Neither can they!
