    First off, are you incapable of having a discussion without insulting people? Second, I’m not making conspiracies. Depp supporters are the ones making conspiracies, like when they claimed that the U.K. judge who ruled against Depp (cope) was somehow in Rupert Murdoch/Amber Heard’s pocket. 
     

    Seriously, if you want to argue that Depp is innocent because a non-sequestered jury that was too dumb to properly fill out their forms said so, then I don’t know what to tell you. Again, the unsealed documents have painted a very u flattering picture of Depp and his legal team, and your only response to that was a single word that was meant to insult me. 

    Ah yes the legal team and jury were out to get Amber Heard and her legal team saying they were is all it takes for that to be true.  Anyways don't reply to me anymore

    Yes, actually, the jury was pretty insane, as was the jury that acquitted O.J. Simpson, and the recent unsealing of the court documents have not painted a flattering picture for Depp, as many mainstream publications have reported. 

    Cope

    Can we please not lump Amber Heard in the same boat as Ezra Miller? No, seriously, just don’t. It’s not her fault that Johnny Depp and his fans are insane.

    The Jury was also insane I guess huh, and anyways she's a PR nightmare as is, whether you believe her or not is moot and hurting the sequel to your biggest film ever to protect some B-Lister is just plain dumb, actors have been let go of for less

    My friend issues D+ almost exclusively because when her grandfather with dementia comes over, the nature docs and animal shows are like the only thing he watches that keeps him calm. 
     

    My grandmother only watches hallmark movies and she 93 and can’t really do anything anymore but Watch TV and go for car rides.

     

    Again, Does sound like a broken record, this is why you need diversity in your programming. And this is why what discovery is doing is whack. Because they had it. They had everything they needed to take the ball in one past everyone! But instead they are just angering everyone. 
     

    And I think the big difference between what’s happening now, and say all of the other scandals that have happened over the past several years with creatives versus executives is Zaslav is Truly fucking with peoples livelihoods. Canceling developmental deals, canceling shows where the crew are not going to find replacement jobs anytime soon. The effects of what he’s doing are going to be felt throughout the entire industry. So I suspect people are gonna think twice about wanting to work with WBD if this is the direction they’re going with.

    How is Zaslav firing people because he needs to cut losses due to their massive debt any different than Netflix firing hundreds and cancelling shows/movies in the works cause their stock prices tanked? 

    I'm not gonna defend him completely getting rid of Batgirl, that is a bad look and will hurt their chances with other top talent but if all he ends up doing is cutting underperforming shows and movies that were greenlit before he came on then i don't think its an issue

    The idea of it being pumped out at the expense of actual worthwhile content is where the main problem lies. 

    Who determines "worthwhile"? Why does some online nerds affinity for comic book show 102 hold any more weight than some housewives love for some show about socialites especially when one is objectively more successful than another?

    I like how you ignore the awful movie and then say "This argument is not good" before hearing out the argument.

     

    The truth is that the 1-2 punch of BvS and SS hurt the franchise as a whole. Anything else is cope from the Snydercult and Ayer wannabes.

    Wonder Woman came after BvS and Aquaman after JL, if they can succeed then Guns SS should have done better. Miss me with those weak ass excuses, Taika Waititi's Raganarok wasn't hurt by Dark World.

    The first SS did well largely because of all the pre-release hype it managed to generate. It had the biggest August OW of all time, but its legs were subpar, and it quickly became a laughing stock on the Internet. 

    It had better multiplier than Civil War and BvS and the internet talking point is a useless argument, most moviegoers aren't film nerds posting their opinions online, they watch, talk for 5 minutes, tell someone it was good or not and move on with their lives

     

    Gunns suicide squad barely made more than Space Jam 2 a family movie, that audience wasn't even coming out last summer, and also had to deal with day and date, that alone should tell you that his movie didn't connect with audiences like people would like to believe

    Ya except the first version ruined the IP, who cares if your movie makes over 700m when it destroyed the brand. Gunn had to work off the first ones awful wom and go day and date with hbomax. Not that it would of done a ton either way but let’s not pretend one movie isn’t way better then the other. 

     


     

     

    Miss me with this cope ass argument, outside of critics and hardcore dc nerds nobody though gunns suicide squad was anything special and the idea that it absolutely bombed cause of a movie from 6 years ago is laughable, even batman begins did half decent despite following up after batman and robin or MOS after superman returns. Also if ayers suicide squad was so awful how did it do so well at the BO without china? Clearly general audiences didn't hate it as much as people online do

     

    Not that ayers movie was good but lets not act like it was morbius or dark phoenix. Internet nerds just overblow a movies reputation when they don't like like say Avatar

    but how much money did SS make? That’s kind of my point. 
     

    Batgirl, no matter how good or bad it is, wasn’t going to make a dime really. 
     

    We don’t know how bad the projections look over at WB for the investment they’ve put in for streaming.  

    Way more than Gunns version which DC nerds hold up as some holy grail even though it lost them 9 figures
