I'm loving how Marvel centric everyone is. There's whole other universes but we've been so inundated with the MCU that's what most of us think of first. I actually did consider the DCU. I still settled on BP. Batman is one of my favorite heroes in comics and movies but no thanks to him being real. 🤷🏻♀️ I totally agree on Batman. Hot mess express there.

That feels shameful to say lol. Meh. I don't think there's any need to shame people's likes and dislikes. That's for the people that need to feel better about themselves. DC isn't for everyone. It's just the other big universe. I was trying to think of another super universe, but I'm not that hip.

Like if I were to do the DC universe, I'd probably go with Wonder Woman, though I'd like to pick the Huntress and the other Birds of Prey because I like an all female team. You just made me flash back to a Birds if Prey show. When was it on? A decade ago? Longer. I was still in high school. I actually really loved that show, though they twisted how everyone got their powers a bit.

I'm amazed no one has said Captain Planet what with all the environmentalism talk. I just imagine real Captain Planet as this, and it totally turns me off of him. Lol.

Ok. I know I'm going off the deep end but I'm trying to think outside the box. What about Aang from ATLAB. He was one of the kindest, thoughtful, and morally right characters and he was only 12. I think the Avatar would be an amazing asset to have. I also like how they are reincarnated so you always have a super hero.

So my answer is What my conscience wants to pick: the Avatar What my nerd heart wants to pick: Darth Vader What my inner child wants to pick: the Ninja Turtles

I'm intrigued by the new movie coming out. I'm not a huge Harley fan, but adding the other ladies in makes me really want to see it.

Everyone counts. There are no rules lol. I didn't even think of Captain planet! I don't know the avatar stuff. You should check out ATLAB. It's won a bunch of awards including best character development in any animated show. It's highly acclaimed as one of the best shows ever made. Not just children's or animated shows. But overall TV shows.

Superman is way overpowered. Nothing can really match him. And his backstory is just so clean cut. He's a very one dimensional character most of the time. Which is why to make him interesting, his greatest villain is himself.

Im also pretty bored by Superman. But I will say I think Tyler Hoechlin is KILLING it in the Arrowverse. Im not even saying that as a TH fan, I just think hes doing a really great job and I am keeping all the things crossed that they give him his own show. Im salivating waiting for the Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover.

I was reading a really interesting thing on Tumblr talking about Margot Robbies outfits and with just the little differences you can tell it was a woman making the costuming choices. It was super interesting but I havent been able to find it again. Even Margot said her outfits are definitely less male gaze-y.

Didn't suicide squad totally flop? I'm surprised they bothered with a sequel.

"We already know that before filming even began, he sent Joker-inspired gifts to his co-stars, including a live rat to Margot Robbie, a set of bullets to Will Smith and a dead pig to the entire cast. And now Leto just told me he also sent everyone...used condoms and anal beads!" Like hes so fucking gross I hate him.

It got a lot of negative reviews and publicity, but overall still was a commercial sucess for them. It was the 10th highest grossing film of the year per Wikipedia. And they won an Oscar for Costumes.

I gave strong consideration to Superman but I decided we don’t need him so much if there are no super villains following behind. He would definitely be my H’s choice though, he’s always been obsessed with him.

But like someone said upthread, he has too many powers. It’s almost silly.

Mh voted for Captain America. He wants to “stay away from one person who has near unlimited power so Superman and Thor are out. Benevolent billionaire Tony Stark is the most fantastical of all of them.”
I’m over here like 😬 I picked Cap because he’s pretty.

Not going to act like that didn’t factor into my decision. That gif was my response to his “Not because he’s a much-needed icon of American morality?” I mean, yes that too. But mostly the eye candy.
