I know him and spoke to him here in Hellywood multiple times. He’s an effing far left moron. He’s got more fags in his company than I can count..
Heinlein’s great — still love Starship Troopers! Too bad Hollyweird messed that up as well, worse than Jackson messed up The Hobbit. (He also monkeyed too much with the LotR, but not as bad as The Hobbit.)
Nerdrotic has a great YouTube channel and does a weekly “Friday Night Tights” live stream where he and other “non-woke” YouTubers rail on the current trends of pulp culture (live stream usually starts around 5:30PM EST

Thanks.
American movies are crap.
I consider the movie of Starship Troopers a completely separate entity.
It’s so far off, it really isn’t it.
Black Panther was interesting. Luke Cage was interesting. This won’t be.
I watched a Korean movie last night called Villaness, I see where a lot of the ideas for John Wick 3 came from.
“Truth, Justice and the Wakanda Way!”
they have really messed up superman for such a long time
well no one wants to see “white shaft” or “white black panther”
although that might be a really funny movie to make
“white black panther”
if someone made that to ridicule the woke snowflakes safespacers, i might actually consider seeing it
A lot of the Rock movie, “San Andreas Fault,” was stolen from a prior Korean movie, “Haeundae,” about a mega-tsunami that hits the city of Busan.
no
he’s a tranny Jim
Super(wo)man
Have to check it out. Thanks.
The Man from Nowhere, A company Man and No Tears for the dead are pretty good one also.
It’s already been done. Will Smith played Hancock, a drunk, homeless superhero

Later, we both learned that it has been used in Military Classes for many years.
My favorite Korean movies are
“Little Forest” (actually a remake of a prior Japanese movie by the same name)
“Be With You” (wonderful movie, although it has a really sad ending)
“Along with the Gods: the Last 49 Days.” Sequel to the first movie, “Along with the Gods: the Two Worlds.” I like it better than the first because it explains a lot of the back story to the movie, how the characters were related in their prior existences (something Korean fantasies get into a lot, e.g., “Goblin”).
Race-focused essayist and Marvel Comics writer Ta-Nehisi Coates has been hired to pen the script for a feature reboot of Superman that will be produced by J.J. Abrams.
“To be invited into the DC Extended Universe by Warner Bros., DC Films and Bad Robot is an honor,” said Coates. “I look forward to meaningfully adding to the legacy of America’s most iconic mythic hero.”
“There is a new, powerful and moving Superman story yet to be told. We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working with the brilliant Mr. Coates to help bring that story to the big screen, and we’re beyond thankful to the team at Warner Bros. for the opportunity,” said J.J. Abrams.
Given how large race hatred looms in the world of Coates, and how he has all but gutted and shamed Marvel’s Captain America comic series, this was a surprising move by Warner Bros., particularly with the popularity of Henry Cavill in the role of the last son of Krypton, and Zack Snyder’s upcoming re-cut of Justice League for HBO Max. But then we learned that the project is being set up as a ‘black Superman story’. Then it all made sense.
Ta-Nehisi Coates has a long history of thoughtful writing about race, but his gruesome passages regarding the terror attacks on 9/11 in his book “Between the World and Me“, were very troublesome for those that support firefighters, first responders, and… well, America in general. In it, he writes of the police and firefighters who died running into the burning buildings in a forlorn effort to save all the people whose bodies were about to be obliterated into dust, “They were not human to me. Black, white, or whatever, they were menaces of nature; they were the fire, the comet, the storm, which could — with no justification — shatter my body.”
Coates has detached himself from his fellow countrymen saying “[L]ooking out upon the ruins of America, my heart was cold. I had disasters all my own . . . . I would never consider any American citizen pure. I was out of sync with the city.” Throughout this book, and many of his writings, Coates talked about the evils of white people and their tool of racial oppression, the police. He also insisted that America was still a country of racial supremacy, even while, as he wrote the book, America had a black president and black attorney general.
In spite of being known for writings like this which are divisive, hateful and incredibly pretentious, Marvel Comics gleefully handed him the keys to Captain America and Black Panther, and both titles soon began to suffer in sales and content quality, just like many predicted. Much of the problem was that Coates’ worldview tainted the books, which zig-zagged between shaming the lead characters or putting his personal politics in their word balloons and storylines.
This surprising decision by Warner Bros. may have begun when Michael B. Jordan tried to develop a Black Superman project back when he first arrived at the studio with his deal in 2019, but that did not go very far at the time. Perhaps the studio could return to Jordan to star down the line. As of today, this is the first DC feature known to be in development under Abrams’ expansive WarnerMedia deal, but he has several DC series in the works for streaming service HBO Max, including Justice League Dark and Constantine.
Coates has such a well documented history of reminding America of its shame via his stunted version of America. It’s unfortunate that Coates reflexively racializes everything. He used to be a sensitive writer who thought and said interesting things. Then racial anxiety wasted his mind. Now he makes millions by catering to the racial anxieties of guilty white liberals like Abrams and the suits at WB. And with the production quality that J.J. Abrams will bring to this, it could turn out to be a beautiful vision through very ugly lens of this great nation and the legacy of Superman.
I predict this won’t end well.
