Hate Watching: And Why I Don't Do it

So The CW has begun production on a live-action "Powerpuff Girls" TV show, after promptly checking to make sure it wasn't April 1st and Ashton Kutcher or Gaten Mazaratto weren't lurking about, I decided to accept this as the reality I live in and figured that I'd get a blog post out of it. However, not the kind of blogpost you'd expect but a different one, which one? I'll tell ya, after the break;

Race Problems

So I have a problem, a problem that I addressed in a Strange Log but now I'm dedicating a full-on article to it because I've had time to gather my thoughts on the topic and come up with a coherent argument about my problem and the full scope of the issue. The writing industry has a Race problem, but not the problem you might think, so what is the problem? I'll address that after the break;

...and What The DCEU ALMOST Did Right Part Two

So in my previous article, I discussed what Marvel did wrong and what they did right, and if you haven't read that article you can read it HERE or just below this article. Anyway as mentioned hitherto writing this article has caused me to have to do a bit of homework myself and that homework was completing my DCEU, which you can read HERE. I suggest you read all the articles before reading this one as it'll solidify my position here. But here is what The DCEU ALMOST did right.

What Marvel Did Wrong and Then Right... Part One

This is going to be a 2 part article but it's something I've been thinking about ever since I watched "The Snyder Cut", Marvel's Netflix shows and their latest offering of TV shows on Disney+ now this is topic is coming to the forefront of my mind, but I have to do a lot of legwork because like I said this is a 2 part article but for you dear reader, you're gonna have to do some homework (and we all know how much you all LOVE homework). The 2nd Part of this series will be titled "...And What The DCEU ALMOST Did Right", but for now we're focusing on Marvel, but I will have to address DC (or more specifically "Man Of Steel"). Anyway I'm gonna go ahead and assume you're a geek like me and have seen all of The Marvel stuff on Netflix and Disney+ or at the very least you're knowledgeable about it, so let's dive into "What Marvel Did Wrong and The Right..."

What If...?: Justice League II

So here we are, Justice League II, as stated before the main villain for this one is Brainiac. Let's dive in. This is going to be a tricky one and this will set the stage for Darkseid but we can't draw attention away from the main villain Brainiac. So here we go!

What If...?: DC Extended Universe Pt. 2

We're back at it! Now that we've gone through Part One of The DC Extended Universe and The Justice League, we're gonna jump into Part Two! So if you haven't read those, you can, or if not, Hey, welcome! Anyways, so by now, you should know that we're building towards Darkseid. You should know by now (if you read Part One & The Justice League) that The Justice League decided to go their separate ways after Wonder Woman killed Maxwell Lord. As I mentioned previously, one of the things that confused me about the Marvel movies is how come none of the Avengers aided each other in their solo movies? Well with this, I at least give an answer, they're not a team anymore, and because they're not a team all of the conflict for these characters will essentially take place primarily in their corner of the world and these stories will be much more personal and backstory driven. So let's dive in and see if I can do this better than Warner Bros./DC. So here's the line up for The DC Extended Universe
