Sneider is destroying the littel credibility he has, just because he is personally angry at Gunn.
Gunn does the right thing i always said, when he openly calls out fake leaks etc.

I forgot “Den of Nerds” even existed.

Is he still angry at Gunn? Still going on this personal vendetta? What a pathetic man.

Gunn has done a great job knocking some of these scoopers down.
Unfortunately there are still enough left...currently people try to lift up Grace Randolph because according to them, the teaser trailer showed that her "There is a middle east plot" "reporting" wasnt wrong and gunn lied about it when he called her a liar.

Den of Turds. The guy with the stinky opinions on DC...

I use to enjoy his channel, but got away after the Gunn feud. I checked out some of his live streams probably 9 or 10 months after their, um, "feud" and bro brings it up any time he talks about DC. It's actually kinda sad. He brought it all upon himself, Gunn just buried him with a good basement joke.

I'm pretty sure Gunn probably doesn't even remember their interaction, while he's been boiling over it for over a year or two now.

To be fair to Durance, I thought she acquitted herself very well, especially in the later seasons of the show and was one of its highlights. Her acting was very much CW teen show level, but for me it worked really well in the context.

I do remember enjoying her performance, but I have to say, my memory of Smallville is always the first 2 seasons, which I loved so much. After that, it starts to become blurry for me, but I guess a rewatch is in order. I do remember falling off of it for a bit and then hopping back in for the final seasons.

Easily one of the most nostalgic shows ever for me.

I'm very nostalgic for Smallville. The "Superman" I grew up with. It definitely had it's chessy/terrible episodes, but anytime it explored Clark's origins/powers and Krypton mythology, I was hooked. I do like that Tom & Michael have a podcast going over all the eps, and rightfully bash the terrible episodes lol.

I also think Erica Durance was a great Lois. Loved her energetic/sarcastic/snarky Lois!

A kid raising a flag with Superman’s symbol on it is proof the Middle East Plot was true? It’s amazing how theories become facts around here. Grace is still pissed that Logan Lerman didn’t get the part and still swears that he was on the Superman shortlist.

 

[DCDAVE]

See his reaction to the trailer to see how that grudge is going.

Well at least he had a reaction. Grace claims she is on vacation so she couldn’t do it live. She is so butt hurt. Her minions are killing her on X

 

[Lily Adler]

I still say Gunn being so active on Twitter is a problem.

 

[Sverdlovski]

I still say Gunn being so active on Twitter is a problem.

Yeah, he should switch to BlueSky.

 

[Lily Adler]

Yeah, he should switch to BlueSky.

He's already on there, but he's not actively debunking on there.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Anybody being active on Twitter is a problem.

 

[DKDetective]

That's because Twitter is where most of the clickbait trolls are.

So, do you think there might be a new suit for Superman at the end of the film?

Batgirl, duh!

My response is offensive? Maybe think about your original post.

It's one thing to say you think an actor or portrayal is sexy. It's another to say someone is "the sexiest BY FAR". That sort of comment goes beyond personal preference or opinion and instead suggests a competitive ranking of people's physical beauty and an implied insult against the other actors who others have said they found incredibly attractive.

Then there is the issue of how the two actors you were comparing were shot and portrayed by the respective productions. Lois&Clark had a female showrunner and both Lois and Clark were depicted as equally sexy. Lois' attractiveness was often implied or reinforced in mature means with provocative outfits that still leave a lot to the imagination.

In contrast, Smallville depicted Durance's attractiveness through very juvenile means with a very strong element of the male gaze. Her sexiness is established with very obvious scantily clad moments like her coming out of the lake in slow motion in a skimpy bikini or going undercover as a stripper and performing pole and lap dancing, once again in very revealing lingerie. All of which puts considerable focus on Durance's augmented breasts.

As a teen, I found Durance's Lois very attractive, but as an adult who is more aware of issues involving the media's depiction and objectification of women, it is very clear that the way that character's attractiveness was depicted is problematic.

I am deeply offended by your post that insinuated the only reason I find Durance sexier than other Lois actresses is because of silicone implants. That’s disgusting and wrong. People can have different tastes without it coming down to something so superficial as artificial breast implants. So much wrong with that post. Yikes.

Nope. I kinda wondered when the collared suit was first revealed in that first set photos looking so heavily battle damaged. With the collar and the KC/WW emblem giving a very Kryptonian appearance and the stated theme of the film being Clark confronting his two heritages, I thought the battle damage might see Clark replace this original suit with something more Earthly and humanistic by the end of the film.

However, the further set photos and more interviews comments about David pushing for the trunks as a deliberately friendly/unthreatening choice by this Clark makes it clear this suit already has those Earthly elements already. The collar here seems to be a practical necessity just given David's body structure. His longer neck and sloping shoulders probably made the classical open neckline a little unflattering.
