Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

Standard

Here’s the short version, from the mouth of my daughter as we were walking out of the theater, “some dude tried to get everyone to clap after the movie, but I just wanted to say the C-word.” After I stopped laughing, curiosity got the better of me, and I gave her permission to say it.

“I just kept watching the movie, and thinking, this movie is,” looks over both of her shoulders, making sure no one would hear her, and whispers, “crap.”

I was pleased to find out she has a different definition of the C-word than me. And she was right about the movie.

Wonder Woman hits SDCC

Standard

So this is the official image of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman in the upcoming Superman v Batman movie, Gritty ‘Splosion Farts or whatever the hell is called (Dawn Of Justice, Donna Justice?) She looks pretty good, I get that some people say she isn’t buff enough. I get people questioning heels on her boots, what I don’t get is scrolling through comments, and one of the very first things I see is shit like, “Ugh, she’s ugly,” seriously people? FUCK. OFF. I don’t have any real desire to see this movie, aside from supporting Wonder Woman and showing DC\WB that people want a WW movie. But seriously, that’s what people have to say? Fuckers. Shit like that bugs me, I have 2 little girls that dig comics and superhero movies, but do I even want to bring them into this fan world? There are a lot of indefensible creeps in comics, and they are loud… But there are more great fans and wonderful people out there. Still, some people should be kicked in the balls.
