Boobs are natural. They always used to be PG (or PG-13). And people have hotter sex on daytime TV these days.
The 80s were so different from today. People weren't apologetic about being attracted to attractive people of the opposite sex.
Apparently it was canceled because people are appalled at the choices made by a fictional character. But some people do make poor choices. And it creates drama. Which is the point of watching a drama.
It's "based on a true story." And obviously adapted for modern audiences.
And the concubines and nudity were true to history. Don't expect 13th century Mongolia to meet 21st century standards of decorum.
The final season plot wasn't that bad, really. I heard that Martin approved the broad outlines.
They just didn't do a good job of connecting the dots, filling in the motivations and the changes of heart with plausible explanatory scenes. Mainly because it was too rushed. What was the hurry?
It will, if you add up all the multiverse totals.
I like tonally confused movies, like the 2014 Lone Ranger, for instance. Most people want to see a comedy or an action movie or a drama or a dark character study. A good movie can include all of that.
But Black Adam wasn't tonally confused, it was dark and dusty and pointless and grim throughout.
It screen tested well, so people who saw it in test audiences liked it. People love Keaton. The trailers were great.
A lot of people simply didn't go because they don't like Ezra Miller.
Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate appeared much older than that (actually only 36 in real life).
The guy is supposed to be 19 in this movie, so they would both be consenting adults, and no big deal.
Except his parents hired her basically as a prostitute, so they could be arrested and charged with human trafficking.
That would make for a shocking and funny ending.
The story was great though.
This movie was great. Like a fairy tale. A simple story, but shown with great skill in acting, costumes, and special effects.
Better movies have been made, but this one will be timeless.
Bigfoot shows up but it wasn't even real.
Black Adam was a dreary mess though. The Flash at least looks like it could be fun. And has Keaton.
Pants could work, but don't make them look like overalls. Maybe more form-fitting, like the Commie Kara Clone version.
It's still very funny, you just knew what was coming.
This movie was great.
Only 10,000? That used to be considered an army. It's one cop for every 400 people. I grew up in some small towns, and we had a lot fewer cops than that per resident.
Toussaint Louverture would be a good historical subject as well. Born a slave, he was freed and became educated, then became a revolutionary general and is known as "the Father of Haiti".
Batman v Superman was epic. Much better than the similar Marvel Civil War snooze fest.
And the Snyder Cut Justice League put Whedon's milquetoast version to shame.
They hate Ezra Miller for being Ezra Miller. And most people don't buy it when someone says they are non-binary, but continue to present as a man or a woman, just like they did before.
