Picking and choosing different elements of legends to incorporate is fine, just as long as they leave the really bad parts of legends were they are, like the fact that the EU introduced about 100 new human Jedis and every last one of them was white.

Agreed. Also, leaving out the force sensitive droids.

Finally, something Arrowverse related to look forward to. Although this poster does highlight the issue with the female representation of the TV DCU,all the female characters are second rate versions of better heroes, they could have at least brought in an Arrowverse Wonder Woman.
 
My Hero Academia's 4th season is off to a great start, the storyline this season is much darker and more serious than the previous seasons, and by the way, the most recent episode S04E06 introduced the first black hero of the show His name is Rock Lock, I'm not a huge fan of the way his character is portrayed (blunt, arrogant, and rude), but it is per usual of how black characters come across in anime, I guess Japanese people think we all act like rappers.

Yeah, just check that off as being anime. After all the majority of anime characters are all suppose to be Japanese yet they all more often than not are designed to look European. If it weren't for the fact that they gave the characters Japanese names you would assume they were European. (See some of the earliest anime series from the 70's and how they were Americanized ala Battle of the Planets aka Gatchaman).

Marvel Entertainment has reached a deal with Tsuburaya Productions for Marvel to produce new comics and graphic novels based on Ultraman, a powerhouse Japanese property since the 1960s. The announcement was made at Tokyo Comic Con.

The new Marvel stories will be based on the first generation of Ultraman TV shows from the 1960s. TV series have continued until the present day, with 100s of episodes. There are also dozens of feature films and video games based on the property.

Marvel Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski described the property. “As one of the world’s most popular franchises, Ultraman has brought together some of the most passionate fandoms in pop culture today, and we can’t wait to bring his story to even more fans around the globe,” he said. “Like Marvel, Ultraman captivated generations by telling spectacular stories grounded in the real world, and it continues to be a beloved classic through its television shows, movies, toys, games, comics, and more.”

Green Lantern Corps Film Still 'a Priority' for Warner Bros. - Report


The Geoff Johns-written Green Lantern Corps movie "remains a priority" for Warner Bros., according to Variety. Johns is expected to finish a new script by the end of 2019.

Green Lantern Corps appears separate from the recently announced Green Lantern-centric HBO Max series, however Johns is reportedly working with Arrow-verse head Greg Berlanti on that show as well.

Shortly after Johns' GLC movie was announced in June 2018, his company website named Hal Jordan and John Stewart as the leads of the film.

Variety goes on to say that Berlanti - or possibly J.J. Abrams (and his Bad Robot shingle) could be enlisted by Warner Bros. on Johns' GLC film.

Warner Bros. once announced a July 24, 2020 release date for Green Lantern Corps, but their planned slate and schedule has gone through significant changes since then.

I'm finally caught up on American Gods, and I'm looking forward to the next season. Season 2 was much better than the first one. Sometimes the pace is still a bit too slow, but at least it's gotten to the point where it's not every scene that takes forever to get to the point. They did better than expected on a couple of my favorite scenes from the book, so I was pretty happy about that. It's also been fun watching Mad Sweeny's run of bad luck; dude plays that part well. Orlando Jones fits the part better than I expected, but sometimes he sounds like he's imitating the voice of a 70s movie pimp instead of an Americanized version of Anansi. lol I wish I had access to the comic book series, but I hope to eventually get my hands on volumes 1 and 2 of the graphic novels in hardcover.

A live-action version of Val-Zod's story would be much better.

I've been ignoring this story because I don't think it means anything. Has MBJ been pitching to play Val-Zod or Clark Kent?

Fuck that! I want everything they have. I gots no problem taking from white men and making it our own. I'll I'm all for pulling a "Julia Roberts as Harriet Tubman" move on any premiere white character.

LOL. Say you get your wish & they do make MBJ Clark Kent, who do you think will be playing Lana Lang and/or Lois Lane?
