Nice job, lesbian police, nobody can even joke "Trump!" and make sense now. -- nm - Max Aug 11, 18:33
While she has the look of Batwoman, having just seen her in The Meg, she has zero on-screen charisma . -- nm - Flavorize Aug 11, 13:23 2
- She totally stole an episode of Dark Matter and was terrific in John Wick 2. -- nm - David Aug 11, 13:25 1
  - She made me kind of like The Return of Xander Cage. - Max Aug 11, 18:37
What fucking morons could have a problem with her as Batwoman? - Reagen Aug 11, 13:04 12
- How can they cast a woman as Batwoman. Wait, it's not Batman? Bat*Woman*? That sucks, Batman is a MAN! MAN!! (NM) - Stupid rando stupid Aug 11, 14:45
- she, apparently isn't gay enough. -- nm - Remlik Aug 11, 13:11 9

  - the mind reels. She's basically an icon, I thought. -- nm - Reagen Aug 11, 13:35
  - Is there someone on this planet MORE lesbian than Ruby Rose? They know that Sappho is dead, right? -- nm - David Aug 11, 13:18 6
    - What I don't get is, some places descrive her as lesbian and gender-fluid.. - Marlowe Aug 11, 14:58 2
      - how is she not a woman? -- nm - mud Aug 11, 16:03 1
        
        She herself posted something suggesting her hard time answering a Male/Female gender question. (NM) - Marlowe Aug 11, 16:09
    - "So the show is just her going down on women and attending Indigo Girls concerts..." "NOT GAY ENOUGH!" -- nm - Reagen Aug 11, 14:50 1
      - The Batmobile is going to be a Subaru Outback -- nm - Dano Aug 11, 15:04
    - right? She called that out. -- nm - Remlik Aug 11, 13:20
- Fucking Morons -- nm - amoxy Aug 11, 13:06
I'd hate to think of how Michael Keaton would have felt if the internet was around when he was cast as Batman. -- nm - peglegpete Aug 11, 12:57 13
- He caught a ton of crap when that happened. -- nm - Remlik Aug 11, 13:14 5
  - more. no comic fan I knew agreed with the casting. it was very close to all fandom feeling screwed. -- nm - peglegpete Aug 11, 13:17 1
    - it was a source of many arguments for sure until Clean and Sober came out and people saw he could do serious. -- nm - Remlik Aug 11, 13:21
  - Who did they want? Swayze? Russell? Scott Baio? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 13:15 2
    - Mel Gibson. -- nm - Reagen Aug 11, 14:54 1
      - But is he crazy enough to fly around Gotham in a bat costume fighting crime? -- nm - Roger Murtaugh si Aug 11, 16:06
- Well, it wouldn't be as harsh (because he's a straight white dude), but definitely the result beat expectations by a LOT, so there would've been some -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 13:03 6
  - so what will they call the Idris ELba James Bond movie? (London Burning) ?? -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 11, 13:05 5
    - there is no Elba Bond film.... -- (link) - Remlik Aug 11, 13:14
    - Further proof that SJW's ruin everything, would be my guess. -- nm - TWuG Aug 11, 13:08
    - Scorpius, I hope. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 13:07 2
      - Although if they went all-in and did an actual Hank Scorpio movie, I wouldn't complain. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 11, 13:08 1
        
        Say bery, would you mind shooting a few guys on your way out, k? thanks... -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 11, 15:28
