I am not into the trans SHIP villain stuff, but I would love to see Riley Gaines as a superheroine in peril. I find her quite beautiful.

Is anyone watching Supes & Lois Season 3? I'm afraid they might not be, because even the first episode only got 750K viewers. Which would be a shame, because not only is this the best superhero show - it's one of the best shows on TV today, period. There's no political bias. When social issues ...

I binged The Wire about 10 years ago and I thought Reddick was great. Many of his characters had a quiet dignity about them. I also remember Reddick as Agent Broyles on Fringe. Great actor. RIP

I remember back in the day I was so geeked out to get that Superheroine's Demise membership. Folks growing up today can't possibly know how important that website was to our fledgling little community back then. You simply didn't have the genre's resources back then that you have today, and many of ...

I loved the story. The part of the story I appreciated the most was how you wrote Principal Morse grabbing Wonder Woman's arm in mid transformation leaving her without critical pieces of her uniform. I thought that was ingenious and inspired, a cool and unique way to depower the superheroine. It is ...

Give them a chance. They can always do worse. :) Shatner might get to direct another one. As bad as Star Trek V was, it was stillbetter than Discovery or the Abrams films. But Star Trek is really better suited to tv rather than movies You raise an interesting point in regard to Star Trek being bett...

Now I don't want to start a full scale riot here, I acknowledge this movie changed the way movies were made, it has spawned many sequels and prequels and has entertained billions of people world wide, but I did not like the original Star Wars film. It did nothing for me. Sorry guys. I agree with you...

At this point, it seems silly not to simply withhold judgement until the movie comes out and see if the actress is good in her role or not. She's an alternate reality Supergirl. Let's just see how they handle it and hope for the best. I suspect where a lot of folks are right now with the execs at D...

I suspect Gene Roddenberry up in heaven is having a good laugh about this thread, LOL! I wonder, when Roddenberry was struggling to get the show on the air every week and worried about the survival of his show, I wonder how much time and consideration he really gave the issue of currency in the futu...

I always love these theoretical questions about the Star Trek universe and how it relates to our contemporary times. Interesting topic of discussion.

I remember Raquel Welch played a villainess in an episode of ABC's Lois & Clark in the 90's. I think she somehow discovered Superman's secret identity and threatened to expose him to the world. There are many beautiful women in the world, but there are fewer and far between who ooze her particul...

I finally got around to seeing Avatar 2 last week. I enjoyed it, I had a good time, although I think any film at three hours plus is going to drag a bit. Thumbs up for me. Seeing Cameron's visually cinematic masterpiece was a treat, this is one of those films that I don't think translates to a big s...

There was this actress in Rye's original Enthusiastic Participation, Alexis Adams. She was so good. She starred in an earlier Rye film as well.

bushwackerbob

As far as I am aware of, no one is being forced at gunpoint to go out and see this film. I hope everybody is enjoying their Christmas and focusing on the positive aspects in their lives. Merry Christmas everyone!

bushwackerbob

I can't wait to see the film. If I know going in that a particular film or show has a POV or political message or agenda, I can still go into the theatre and enjoy the film. One of my favorite shows of the aughts was NBC's The West Wing, and lord knows that show was tilted in a certain ideological d...

Probably will get the John Kent Superman and young Batman. Not sure why Cavil is out given he's not old and has the role established and he did the appearance in Black Adam. Maybe these producers are tired of throwing mud at the wall to see what sticks. Another theory is these studios see the tides...

I look at it as DC Comics getting their house in order and releasing their films in a coordinated fashion, much in the way Marvel does with their various superhero properties. Now that there is a new guy at the helm, and new corporate ownership, it makes sense that he wants a reset of DC Comics and ...

bushwackerbob

Lynda Carter will always be the quintessential Wonder Woman to me, same with Yvonne Craig as Batgirl. I suspect part of the reason old bastards like myself have those particularly indelible memories and images in our minds was in the 60's and 70's, superheroines were in short supply on TV, Lynda and...

bushwackerbob

Would anyone even be remotely interested in seeing 'Miss Wonder : Pleasure Pet' ?? Promise there will not be an Eiffel tower position - all new writing that will include nudity and sexual peril. :ww1: Yes, a SHIP film like that would intrigue me. There is room for a lot of creativity with a film li...

bushwackerbob

I am probably in the minority, but I loved Rye's first "Enthusiastic Participation" film. His last film in that series, "Enthusiastic Participation: Reigns of Terror with the awesome Alina Lopez is one of my favorite SHIP films of the last 5 years or so.

bushwackerbob

I think it’s in poor taste to be pitting these two actresses against one another in an opinion thread. We should have gratitude and respect for the women who placate our fantasies and approach our genre with enthusiasm. Asking them to star in content that is a harder days work than a typical adult ...

bushwackerbob

My only slight critique of Ashley Lane, and I don't know if this is a director thing or an actress thing, but in almost every Ashley Lane SHIP film I have ever seen with her, she is crying almost all the way through her films. Incessant crying nearly all the way through a SHIP film is a turnoff for ...

Somebody ought to write a screwball comedy about a superhero film that was shot and filmed, but the studio decided not to release the film; Then you cut to four superhero fanboys devastated that a film starring their favorite superhero will not be released, and these losers decide to travel cross co...

Happy Birthday, Dr. D! I hope you have an enjoyable and relaxing day.

Supergirl Se one ep one made it clear Superman & Lois were a huge part of the CW universe. It is laziness to not keep it going. as to supergirl, Benoist from what I heard did not want intense peril due to her life experiences. They shoud've found an actress who'd be willing to have thoase scene...

The whole fucking thread is politics. The only difference with sneakly's post is that it mentions actual real-world politics instead of the bullshit conspiracy theories that otherwise get a free pass here. You may be right in that the topic may be too close to the sun here, but I will point out pos...

Ron DeSantis may be the worst thing to ever happen to gay people in the last twenty years (I put in the qualifier because some really horrific shit has happened to gays), but he has pumped more money into the Magic Kingdom than any tax loop-hole ever could…. The Little Mermaid will be another smash...

From what I seem to remember from a previous thread on the topic of Larson and Captain Marvel was she made some controversial comments and those comments were attributed to her Captain Marvel film, but the reality of the situation was her comments were not attributed to Captain Marvel, but to a prev...

the setup of the British constitutional monarchy is carefully designed and calibrated. Not happenstance as some here appear to presume. no it's not rich land owners in the 1600s got pissy about taxes and lopped off the kings head. being the only republic in europe however was not a winning strategy...

bushwackerbob

There does seem to be a whole heap of republican sentiment in this thread - alongside the classic misunderstanding of the soft power a constitutional monarchy provides, and the huge benefits of having the egos of politicans separated from the head of state. Said soft power exemplified by Vladmir Pu...

It is a simple thing really, you make a film and then suddenly shelve it, it piques folks curiosity, it makes folks want to see the film all the more, even if it does suck. Folks were clamoring for Snyder's cut Justice League as well, curiosity over these behind-the-scenes shenanigans makes folks wa...

When I first found this SHIP genre online, I began buying SHIP clips at a fairly frequent rate, I would see a flicker of something that particularly caught my fancy, and my hopes for the film overrode any doubts I had about what studio it came from, whether it was hardcore or softcore, whether this ...

I think what DC Comics really needs is a visionary leader like Marvel has with Kevin Feige. I don't think DC Comics has a Feige equivalent, or at least anybody with Feige's level of excellence or expertise. I read a Vanity Fair piece on Feige a couple years ago, he has his influence on everything Ma...

Well who IS watching TV now a days? Do young people watch or do they engage in networking, tik tok, instagram, twitter, dating apps and playing games. Also wondering what he demographic of conventions and fan bases are. Probably in the older ranges. Same with gambling, young people really aren't en...

bushwackerbob

All of the broadcast networks I suspect are trending older demographics these days. The president of CBS said last month that the average age of the television viewer watching the show Survivor on CBS is 60, while the average age of someone watching Survivor on CBS's streaming platform Paramount+ is...

I am currently rewatching the Supergirl TV series, (still just on Season 1, lots to go) and since I've never posted in this thread, I wanted to throw in my two cents. I have to say that I believe Melissa Benoist embodied the character of Supergirl easily as much as Helen Slater did. They gave sligh...

She has an appeal that I consider more genuine than Benoist, as a singer, and I believe would have been better than Benoist. Having appeal is one ...

This looks good. I love a good unmasking scene, especially when it is played up. The phrase that makes me excited to purchase this film is better pacing. In some of the films I see today, the films seem to be in a rush to get from point A to point B, they rush from one immediately from one scene to ...

I will try again Friday. I think part of the issue with some folks losing all of that money is having too much free time on their hands, too much time to think about or spend their loot. I would probably quit my job, but I would probably try to find some meaningful purpose in my retirement rather th...

I didn't like Kyle Maclachlan as Paul in the original, I thought Chalamet was more age appropriate. The special effects in the 80's edition seemed atrocious and cartoonish, even by 1980's standards. Rarely, if ever does one see film adaptations of books be 100% faithful to the source material for a...

I seem to remember there was one version of the opening theme of this series where Jonathan and Jennifer suddenly wake up out of bed with Stefanie Powers naked, furiously grabbing for the blanket to cover her nice front porch. Nice shot.

I've started this discussion in its own thread, as requested. I feel there is still plenty of life in the genre but it takes good writing, acting and production value to hit a homerun these days. A billion dollar mega-hit isn't nearly as easy as it was four years ago, pre-Covid. What do people thin...

I saw the Godfather for the first time about 10 years ago and I loved Caan's reckless and impulsive Sonny Corleone. Caan's turn as Paul in Misery was awesome as well.

As a fan of Westerns, I mourn the fact that so very few of them are made these days. In the 50s and 60s they were everywhere. I wonder if super films will go the same route. Genres go in cycles. When in the 80s they made "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr." the western movie stuntmen we...

I suppose I answered my own question. I went digging in an Arrowverse Wiki page and found this little nugget. "Superman & Lois exist in their own alternate universe, separate from Earth Prime in the new multiverse". I wish I had known that before, that fact ought to have been addressed...

I don't think it's lazy, I think it's a conscious decision to retcon the whole series like they do in the world of comics every so often. And maybe they had an inkling that the CW was crumbling around them and figured it would be easier to save themselves. Do we really care if there are no more cro...

Well I think everyone understands these characters are just isolated. No one helps Batwoman and no one comes in and helps Flash. Heck Superman could just clean up Gotham City in a week. I actually like its a world with only Supes. The only thing that bugs me is that this all occurs in Smallville an...
