Zeus 09/12/18 6:18:39 PM #176:	The Wave Master posted... Henry Cavill just quit as Superman. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/henry-cavill-as-superman-warner-bros-dc-universe-shake-up-1142306 I have no feelings good or bad on this move. I do not blame him for his 3 appearances being trash, as he is a great actor, and the scripts to those films let him and us down. I think it's for the best if we all just move on fron this chapter of the DCU anyway. He seemed okay for the role, other than the fact he didn't seem like the kind of guy who really loved the role and would be there for it. Kind of the same problem I have with Affleck playing Batman. When you're building a franchise, you really need people who you can completely count on. The Wave Master posted... Warner Brothers priority right now is a Supergirl movie. I'mnot sure that's the right play, but I do not run a multi billion dollar movie studio either. Once they get a Superfirl movie off the ground the plan next is to probably cast Michael B. Jordan as Clark Kent/Superman. I am 100% sure the Internet won't break in half over that potential casting choice. People will say, "He's not the right choice for the character." But what they really mean is that he is not the right color for the character. A part of me hopesthat they do vast him just so I can see the racist chaos that would follow. Not sure why you'd complain about the DC films doing poorly then suggest a move that would completely tank them. And even if MPJ was white, he'd STILL be a lousy choice because he's not the kind of guy who you could expect to get a long-term commitment from. Then we'd wind up needing another reboot and the DC films start to look more and more like DC comics. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:908620591] in Mobile Sui...
