I’m with Matt, losing yalls minds at the start of the show was good stuff.
How could you not hate David Goyer?
I loathe him… he’s a Hack (a very succesful one).
I started to hate him with Blade Trinity, but when I saw Flash Foward I concluded he was all noise and no substance.
You should watch the unborn, and you’ll hate him too.
I hate him to death.
I agree with CS2-6 some of the more enjoyable parts of the show are when it gets “punchy”.
Jesus, Chris. Just because some comic fans call you a hipster-elitist, doesn’t mean that you have to really apply yourself and come up with something that you’d need to be half brain-dead and have no cultural exposure beyond super-heroes to believe and then say it just to prove them wrong. Congratulations though, “I hate Marlon Brando because I didn’t like him in the Superman movies” definitely does it.
In fairness, I think there’s abundant evidence that Marlon Brando was always a prima-donna asshole, at least as far back as before the Godfather movies (Francis Ford Coppolla got in giant fights with producers on Godfather and Apocalypse Now over casting him, because they were convinced that he was such a brat that dealing with him would waste enough time and money to affect the bottom line). He was basically proof that the “bunny-ears lawyer” trope actually can happen in reality. But, yeah, there are hundreds of guys in the world that are just as big assholes as Marlon Brando was, none of them made ‘On the Waterfront’, though.
I’m not sure if I love Brando or hate him for refusing to wear pants in the island o doctor moruea
