So two points, neither of them remotely important
Im at this weird space where IP name recognition means nothing to me anymore, so many shows about shit I like suck and all the most amazing shows are new ips or things I dont care about so honestly the only reason Im keeping an open mind is because Pedro Pascal is always pretty good. Im hoping hes as good as he was in Prospect

Writers tend to hate the adaptations that come to the screen but I think King thought this one was an improvement. The ending is original and quite mind blowing.
15 years ago, a Stephen King sci-fi classic became his most infamous movie
A single change to the story sparked controversy... and praise. Here's how 'The Mist' redefined one of Stephen King's best stories.www.inverse.com
This quote will probably stick with me forever -
“AS A SPECIES, we're fundamentally insane,” Ollie Weeks (Toby Jones) says. “Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion?”
Gotta rewatch this soon, as an adult.
I'm gonna be one of the only people on planet Earth who is disappointed by this, but by fucking Christ, WB have got the almost literal First Lady of Comic Book Superheroines, closer than not to one hundred years worth of material to draw on - and as much of the Greek mythology free ideas bucket as they want - and there's been a grand total of one decent tv show and two good movies.

You are never alone. I know my parents are not going to be happy when they find out this news. I'll give them a minute and let them find out on their own.
I will say that it is pretty suspicious that Batgirl and Wonder Woman get the boot while apparently awful Ezra Miller gets to prance about as their awful version of Barry Allen, as well as the other upcoming male-led DC films.
People already noticed this, it's just a matter of how much of a high tolerance the audience is going to have. That includes both the male and female audiences, the ladies are going to be more than upset the most. WB is clearly closing off one market/demographic, out of sexism and racism, and not wanting to put effort into their product. People of color and women do not appreciate it, and will be going somewhere else or back to Marvel. Assuming they never left Marvel in the first place, and still watch their movies or TV shows. The new president of WB Discovery is literally shooting himself in a foot with a rocket launcher. Sure, you'll have your male white audience, but they don't make up everything and you're bleeding cash either way. In addition saying those that are non-white or women don't belong. All they've done was give Marvel and disney, and other streaming services more ammunition. All those people they fired probably went to a difference that's more than willing to accept them or go straight to Disney. So congratulations WB-Discovery I hope it was worth it.
I still cannot fathom the logic that cancelling a near complete movie that had a sub hundred million price tag is a more enticing write off than Flash, who's budget must be hitting two hundred million by now, along with whatever the actual fuck is going on with Ezra Miller.
I'd direct you back to Kevin's story on working for WB in the 90s, but the short of it is that they are a bunch of out of touch ego-driven lunatics.
