StumblyWumbly posted:Nobody wants to touch a failure. That's a pretty good general rule, but it gets iron clad in dysfunctional places like DC. Oh I know they couldn't continue off it, I just meant that Marvel is doing pretty well even though only a couple of the movies in the whole thing were well received. I guess they did start off with one that was, though.

e X posted:Bullshit, if a guy says that he doesn't much like season 1 and feels that he got the important stuff from the recap, there is no reason to say he has to watch it. That is bad advice, because you basically say he has to watch something he clearly doesn't enjoy. You can the second season just fine without knowing the ins and outs of the first. He can't possibly know if he got all the important stuff from the recap. Someone who did see season 1 would have to watch it to know for sure.

ToastyPotato posted:Warner Bros general stance is that you cannot have a character be on both a TV show and a movie because it might confuse audiences, and Batman is going to be in the Superman movie. They know this is scientific fact because this has happened before with Green Lantern, actually. "What the gently caress Hollywood? Why did they make him white?!" Granted JLU was cancelled by then, but it was running on plenty of channels.

twistedmentat posted:Ugh. its crazy because the outfit she wears is pretty basic; bodysuit, fishnets, combat boots and a black leather jacket. She sounds like an extra from a Frankie Goes to Hollywood video, but its not as out there as pretty much everyone else is. I'm curious how Arrow will go, especially when they already have one Canary.

Universal has the Namor rights explicitly. Namor apparently has some other weird rights stuff too, because the devs of Marvel Heroes said they don't have access to him.

ToastyPotato posted:How is Universal allowed to squat on the rights to Namor? Everyone else has to release X number of films or whatever within a period of time or forfeit the rights. They just got them in 2006.

ToastyPotato posted:Seeing as Flash's recent TV cartoon appearances have had him eating a lot (as Wally West at least) I would imagine that they do end up going with that for the show, even if it isn't comic accurate, mostly because it is a visual gag they are going to want to pull and gives him a "quirk" they can play with. Poor Grant Gustin. Eating on film is one of the worst things to do.

Klungar posted:Gotcha, thanks. What about Wells and Dr. Light? Megaman? Wells is another character on the show. He's the guy in charge of the particle accelerator project (and therefore creating The Flash.) Dr. Light probably won't be in the show. He's a terrible character. He was a Justice League villain, then got demoted to kind of a joke villain. Years later they retconned that as his having been magically lobotomized for being a serial rapist. Using him will just make people think of that whole mess so he's probably sticking to a name drop.
