Si es real la filtración, me parece GENIAL. Eso es tener huevos. Acéptenlo: Jhon Stewart ES EL GREEN LANTERN PRINCIPAL DEL DCU. Mientras la serie sea buena y se arriesgue, para mí siempre es mejor.



‘Superman’ was released one year ago today.















This is everything wrong with James Gunn's Superman all within 30 seconds. James Gunn's Superman is justifying himself to Lex Luthor of all people and therefore Lex Luthor actually wins in Superman 25. Gunn just doesn't know that's what he wrote. The real Superman doesn't ever need to do this. His confidence is quiet and built on an unshakable moral compass. By having Gunn's Superman stand there yelling, pleading, and begging Lex like a bitch to understand he "gets scared" and "screws up all the time", the character loses his status as the aspirational ideal. Instead of being an anchor for humanity to look up to, Superman is reduced to a defensive, relatable modern archetype desperate for validation, even if it's from the worst person imaginable. Modern screenwriting has this trend where every hero (no matter how mythic) MUST be broken down, filled with self-doubt, and constantly vocalize their anxieties. James Gunn is treating this moment (the very last scene Superman has a chance to truly be Superman) as a therapy session for himself. Lastly with this little monologue, Lex Luthor wins. The moment Superman loses his composure and starts shouting his insecurities like he overdosed on estrogen that morning, Lex wins the philosophical argument. In this movie, Lex's whole thing is to establish that Superman is a false god. An alien fraud. An unstable that needs to be stabilized or rid of. By showing that Superman is emotionally rattled, venting out his flaws, the narrative unknowingly validated Lex's suspicions. This alien is too emotionally fragile to hold the power of a god. Gunn thought he was writing a relatable Superman but really he just inserted himself. It would of been cheaper for all of us if his mom tied a red towel around his shoulders with a clothes pin and told him to go play outside for a little bit.

An anonymous NBA executive and scout believe Jaylen Brown has a "disease" where he thinks he’s the smartest person in the room, per @colincowherd “I had two NBA sources … two people in the league, one an executive, one a scout, say that Jaylen Brown has — it’s a disease. He suddenly thinks he’s the smartest guy in every room he’s in ... You make a lot of money, suddenly you’re absolutely sure, you don’t wanna listen to your bosses, you don’t wanna listen to consultants, you don’t wanna listen to teammates.” (Via @volumebball)

The Trail Blazers’ analytics department reportedly viewed Jaylen Brown as a negative player 😳, per @TheAthletic “Another team with widely reported interest, the Trail Blazers, similarly did not join the chase. A Blazers team source said the Blazers were never enamored with Brown, even before Boston made it known he was available on the trade market. Two factors went into the Blazers’ disinterest: Their analytics viewed him as a negative player and the Celtics’ asking price was too high.” (Via nytimes.com/athletic/74183…)
