It was on after something the other night so I kept it on in the background while playing xbox.

Are all the CW shows that stupid?
I've heard some people rave about The Flash.

I tried watching Arrow when it first came out and was prepared to give it a go, but gave up after half a season or so. Can't really speak for any of the other DC shows, but I get that tacky vibe from just about anything on the CW (though I do watch Penn & Teller's Fool Us.)

Saw it yesterday, thought it was really well done. I know I’m in the minority but I reckon his portrayal was better than Ledgers.....

Did anyone watch Batwoman?

I got about 20 minutes and switched off because I was bored.
After hearing Ruby Rose’s terrible American accent on the preview I haven’t been tempted to give it a shot.
I hear it’s getting the Captain Marvel treatment on review sites

So man babies who haven't seen it having hissy fits then.

I'm not going to watch it, as you note the CW shows are actually fairly watchable but they're too much effort to put in these days with their broadcast season number of episodes.

Yep. It has a 10% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and 3.1/10 on IMDB.

I'm sure it's not that bad.
I guess one episode has aired so theoretically we can say that it's been seen this time round. Are there multiple click bait Youtube videos about it? I haven't looked (due to the fact I didn't realise this show was coming) but found the Captain Marvel stuff entertaining in it's stupidity (but annoyed with myself for contributing to the click bait revenue by watching them).

Joker was highly disappointing save your money and watch Fight Club or American Psycho again both far superior films exploring the same ideas.

I think that everything which happened in the Joker film, excluding the ending Asylum scene, was a deluded fabrication that he was bullshitting to the psychiatrist for shits and giggles.

Gives a unique perspective

A rich guy in a shitty city like that won’t always be Mr. Nice Guy

But the point of his character is usually he is the one rich guy that is a good guy. Making him just another dickhead rich guy is cynical and boring imo. They did the same thing with the Batman Telltale games.

It is that bad. Nothing about it is entertaining and that's before you get into the feminist/man-hating arguments. Lazy, cliche-ridden dialogue, a nothing story, cardboard characters and stiff acting to go with it, poor production values and of course it shits all over Batman lore cause why wouldn't it.
