I'm a DC fan, and they need a complete reboot. If they can find a way to preserve Wonder Woman and maybe Harley Quinn and flip everyone else, maybe they'll have a shot. That sounds sexist, but for the life of me I can't think of another good actor/character match. Even Ezra Miller was miscast. One thing they need to do, though, is reestablish all the heroes before even considering the Justice League again. And remember, Batman doesn't work well with others.
It is on the whole probable that we continually dream, but that consciousness makes such a noise that we do not hear it. Carl Jung.
They've done TV pretty well, but the Arrowverse wisely isn't built around Batman and Superman. They're even doing Crisis on Infinite Earths next year. I don't know the DC canon that well, but maybe focus on strong characters rather than plots. I've always maintained they dropped the ball by not rolling heavy with Wildfire (who seemed to be their Wolverine in waiting back in the day).
I'm not a system player. I am a system.

Went to see They Shall Never Grow Old today, very good and I highly recommend it.
When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.
No one told me The Killing of a Sacred Goat takes place in Cincy! There’s GABP in the first 10 minutes.
Watched it on Amazon Prime and it really held my interest. An original surreal movie.
Went to see The Favourite last night. That was NOT exactly the direction I expected that one to go, but definitely an interesting (if not often odd) movie. It's one of those that the critics love and audiences aren't so sure about, but I think it's worth seeing.
Bublebee was very good and not over done or bloated like many of the Transformers movies of the past.
If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.

Who votes on Golden Globes? Fans loved Bohemian Rhapsody. Critics didn't (or pretended not to). The rest of that discussion probably on the Politics and Religion Board...
Golden Globes results has less politics and is usually a better assessment of the actual performances than the Oscar results.
