For whatever reason these people just don’t want to believe in absolute evil existing.

People really wasting a WHOLE HOUR for these? I can already guess it's about racism, xenophobia, relating to demons, etc. Saved you an hour. Actually if it was me, title would be "Saved Frieren"

They changed it from “China” to “Smile”because China isn’t exactly popular in 2025 Japan anymore.

The network actually wanted it to be revealed that Turpin was still alive, having been teleported to Apokalips. However, the series being canceled and the DCAU continuing with JL instead allowed the team to keep him dead and have his death mean something to Supes.

They made the villains “The Huns” instead of The Mongols specifically because they didn’t want to tie the story down to any specific era of Chinese history. Since there are versions of Mulans story going all the way back to the time of Christ.

That was literally the plot of No Country For Old Men. A man steals the drug money from a bust gone bad, and spends the rest of the movie being chased by a Hitman.

Glad to see they remembered to give them dot eyes like an eagle and not slit eyes like a cat. That's always been a big issue with Jurassic Park Raptors.

There's also this concept art which looks great, and makes me think the models are just shown in particularly bad angles/lighting for a first impression

Missed opportunity for a Jurassic World story to explore. If the Dinosaurs are literally an invasive species that will destroy the ecosystem. We would be deputizing poachers to exterminate them.

You know why. Someone else named Diddy destroyed the brand name.

It's appropriate considering Maine was the closest thing David had to a proper masculine role model and father figure. Maine was already pushing some of his bad habits (Immunoblocker abuse) onto the kid.

My personal favorite one? "First Lady Hillary Clinton's plane had to make an emergency landing due to a frayed wire in the engine." "President Clinton then called to ask. What went wrong with Operation Frayed Wire?"

The objective fact is you'll see a hundred stories where a Superhero brutally beats down and/or kills a right wing/conservative extremist before you'll see one where the hero does the same for a leftist/progressive one. There will NEVER be a "Superman Smashes Antifa"

The whole point of johnny is that he's a bit of a dick and needs to learn to be a better more responsible person. It's the same reason Netflix Last Airbender taking away Sokka's sexism robs him of his character arc. God forbid a character have a mortal flaw to overcome.

Joseph Quinn addresses how his portrayal of Human Torch will differ from Chris Evans' version: "He was branded as this womanizing, devil-may-care guy, but is that sexy these days? I don't think so. This version of Johnny is less callous with other people's feelings." (via EW)
