That doesn’t strike me as the case here with Nolan. I get the feeling he was somewhat baffled by the reaction.

Then he's way, way detached from reality. A lot of artistic types are so maybe that's the case here.

And even if he is, I don't believe he could have had a meeting with more than 3 people and someone didn't bring up the fact that casting a 90lb tranny as a Greek warrior or a solid 5 black woman as Helen might generate some negative buzz. Even if Nolan's in his own world, the money people are not. They knew this would generate controversy and that's what they wanted.

They always are.

Eh, you might want to pump the brakes there. Like them or not Trump's crew can make money without government graft (which they are certainly doing) and are generally competent. Biden's crew couldn't run a 7/11.

Ok mensa, give us your interpretation of this:

"When you read the Iliad and the Odyssey, very little time is spent from the perspective of the women. It's told from a very masculine side of things. The Odyssey takes a lot of time to really consider things from the female perspective.

That's why I got the Backflip, I already have a 5' bed and want to be able to take the whole thing out if I need to so I didn't want a toolbox or retractable. I don't know if "leaks" is the right word, because even if you got a perfect seal most pickup beds will leak through the tailgate seam or other holes, but there can typically be wet spots (not puddles) around the front and rear after a hard rain. I didn't fool with the drain tubes it came with so some of that is probably on me. I just got it for the cover part, as I carry stuff back there in a pvc duffle bag that's waterproof anyway.

I have seen people on forums get the flip style very nearly leak proof by adding foam, etc, I just never bothered with it. It rained pretty hard here last night, and I just went and looked and if there was any water that leaked in it's already evaporated.

Anyone with a functioning brain and semi-interest in movies could have told you any iteration of Supergirl would bomb at the box office. The movie was DOA.

I don't know if Supergirl is that marketable but I thought the first Wonder Woman did ok financially. I remember it being good enough to keep my interest, which is more than I can say for Aquaman or Cedric's Batman.

I think you can have a successful female superhero movie but you've still got to aim it at men, or at a bare minimum don't make it hostile towards them. If you want to make fun of men and pull in Gen Z females make another Barbie.

which shows that the target audience for a “Supergirl” movie — Gen Z women — didn’t show up.

These people are insane. You're not keeping a super hero movie afloat with Gen Z females, I don't care how good it is.
