‘Batgirl’ is dead: Secret ‘funeral screenings’ on Warner Bros. lot
NY Post ^ | 8-24-22 | Erin Keller

Posted on 08/25/2022 9:37:22 AM PDT by dynachrome

At least someone got to see “Batgirl.”

A select group of folks — mostly people who worked on the show, both cast and crew, as well as representatives and executives — reportedly have been invited to private screenings of the “shelved” film on the Warner Bros. Studio lot this week, multiple sources told The Hollywood Reporter.

One insider even described the viewings as “funeral screenings” before the footage is locked away in a vault — but it’s unknown if that vault is physical or digital.

On Tuesday, the filmmakers behind the movie, Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah, said they were not even able to access any footage from the film once Warner Brothers declared it dead.

OK here’s the deal, you’re a sad dude who can only feel good about yourself by dragging down others. Which is frankly quite childish. You came on this thread for the sole purpose of telling everybody you’re too cool for the topic. Which is also childish. And you also lied and said your scorn was a “statement of taste”. Which is a childish dodge. And you keep coming back the next day desperately trying to get the last word. The ultimate in childishness.

See ya.

Well, Kirk did get Space Herpes from Catwoman. Who's to say he didn't pass it, or something worse, on to Bat Girl?

You do realize that this comment is, in and of itself, a play for the last word.

Isn't irony ironic?

No. I’m denying him the last word. And denying him respect. I don’t actually give a crap one way or the other. But unless he mans up, admit he landed on the thread just to be a troll, and is a douchebag, I’ll keep mocking him. Or he can crawl away like the pathetic waste of flesh he is.

Why does it matter this much to you? There are real problems in America. Wokeness, the cancelling of the gasoline-powered economy, rampant inflation, censorship on a grand scale, and the emergence of Stasi-like Federal police organs..... THESE are things worthy of your attention, not the opinion of someone who comes on to a thread about comics and states they aren't impressed by them. Please put your efforts into something a little more productive.

Because I despise EVERYBODY that comes onto a thread just to announce they’re too cool for the thread. I don’t care what the topic is. If you’re not interested in it, don’t click on it.

Actually egotistical douchebags that must tell everybody how superior they are are one of the real problems in America. Most of the crap going on in this country starts with an egomaniac thinking they’re better than everybody else. Really, your whole list starts with somebody saying “well I think that’s bad, and everybody should listen to me.”

And frankly Laz, all you do on FR is wander around and make bad jokes. So pot, kettle. Put your efforts somewhere productive.

I know I’m almost alone in this but the whole idea of adults going to see super hero movies is halfway between weird and creepy. These are children’s comic book stories. I just don’t get it.

You're welcome to your opinion, but I found the Marvel Comic Universe to be engaging and filled with wonderful effects. The character development was superb and the acting was topnotch.

There are many film genres that are interesting to me, that others might not understand. Take earlier Russian filmmaking. In those films, from, say, 1950's to the 1980's, every single major character was dead. Antagonist, protagonist, it didn't matter. Everyone was dead. In fact, in one film ... since there was no other way for the protagonist to die .... she just slit her wrists in a bathtub -- almost for no discernable reason.

It actually became a funny meme in Russia, much like "Red Shirt" deaths are a funny meme about Star Trek, in America. :^)

Well, you sure are cantankerous this morning. Sorry about that! Hope the day improves.

Oh

Really?

I think

I disagree

With your assessment.

Why certainly, many of my comment-style posts DO attempt to make a joke here and there. I like to think of it as raising the morale. You can decide if it is effective or not; I suspect I know your answer. :^)

But I am not at issue here. My thrust was to understand why his actions bothered you so much that you would make a 'project' of the guy. There are many more pressing things to work on...

BTW, don’t get me wrong here. I do get it. I’ve been involved in the odd pissing-match with another freeper, here and there, and at some point it becomes less about the topic and more about ‘winning’.

I’m actually in one of those now with someone! It actually can be fun. I do understand the appeal.

I suppose I’m reminding myself of the downside, as much as I’m making note of it to you. :^)

This woke disaster improperly called this “Batgirl”. “Batthing” or “Transbat” would have been more appropriate titles.
