Earlier in the summer, the showrunner said they would resolve the ongoing storyline, then take Ralph off the canvas for a bit and maybe bring him back with a different actor in the role. It was implied that Ralph would be in disguise (to explain the recast). It sounded like Sue might stick around even while Ralph was out of the picture. I still don't get the Sawyer tweets. The tweets I saw were so bizarre, it's hard to take it seriously. I kind felt like the dude is either very weird or disturbed, tweets while high/drunk, or is about 3000% percent less funny than he thinks he is. It was the sort of stuff racists/misogynists tweet in a dumb comedy film, not the way a misogynist would tweet in real life. Not that that excuses him, in the least. The best case scenario is that Hartley is a very strange guy with no filter. That's not a good look either.

To be fair I didn't get a bs feel from his apology so he seemingly was a different person who has since tried to improve himself since. 2 hours ago, The Natural said: Still think recasting Katherine Kane/Batwoman was the way to go.

One of the very few live action cowls with no black eyepaint. They killed my interest by not just recasting the Kate role. I liked Rose in it well enough, but not enough that I couldn't have accepted someone new. I would wish the new girl well, but I kind of hope the show falls flat on its ass. There is just something arrogant in the showrunners about the refusal to listen to fans who pretty much all said to just recast the Kate roll. All that said, that costume does not look good to me. I wish the went ahead and altered more since they are straight up doing a new character. Its not like they can convince people she is the original Batwoman.

The showrunners have an uphill battle as you have those wanting Katherine Kane/Batwoman instead and trying to get them behind a new character in Ryan Wilder who doesn't have a fanbase. Recasting Katherine Kane was the way to go. Edited September 27, 2020 by The Natural Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) He’s a stereotype in the first episode I watched with him in it, but not so different from something like Seinfeld, or any other Jewish comedian that performs self deprecating Jewish humor. Though he’s played by Wayne Knight(Seinfeld’s Newman) who isn’t actually Jewish, but still tends to do that Yiddish voice over the years like he is. They’ve really just turned everybody into a different stereotype outside of Joker, and Bane(Who has the voice of Hardy’s version of the character). Also Kite Man is in this, and he’s essentially based on that wacky set of comic panels that make him come off as Robot Chicken’s Boba Fett. Edit: whoops, Wayne Knight is actually a Jewish descendent. Don’t know if actually practices it. Edited October 3, 2020 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) Okay, I’m seven eps into this show. It’s officially good. It’s reminding more, and more of all the 90’s adult cartoon shows from rival networks looking for their own Simpsons. The Critic is the best comparison.

Curt McGirt Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Just saw a commercial for the new Swamp Thing show on the CW. Lots of CGI, but looks horror themed and pretty gnarly. How come we can't get a damn Man-Thing show, movie, or even appearance in a Marvel property though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) Wait, is the Swamp Thing CW show the DC Universe Show, or a new original series? Edit: Okay I see this is the same thing. It’s being advertised as a “mini-series”. Well at least they I trying to give this a chance to find an audience. Maybe even try to get another season. Edit: Oh this may not be a way to get it another season. It’s only being used to fill gaps in the CW’s lineup due to COVID delays in TV production.

Matt D Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 They’re not using the ones they might want to use in bigger venues. It’s why we got Arrow and not CW’s Batman. But Hal’s a terrible character so it’s probably for the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonzombie Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) Years ago I read that Warner/DC/Johns will use both Hal and John characters for the GL Corps movie.

The Natural Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) First official look at Javicia Leslie as Ryan Wlder/Batwoman. First official look at Ruby Rose's Kate Kane/Batwoman. Still believe its fucking stupid replacing Kate Kane/Batwoman, just do a recast of the part. Leslie, this new series of Batwoman and people behind it have an uphill battle.

NikoBaltimore Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I've been a bit behind when it comes to talks about the upcoming season. But did they say if the new Batwoman is somebody that's not Kate Kane? Are they going to write her out and a different character is taking on the role of Batwoman? I'm just trying to think of how they're going to spin this so it isn't so jarring when it comes back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
