Also, DC characters are mean mothers, while Marvel characters are cool daddies. Meme slayed! (?)

Crazy, it's almost like... Superhero writers can't get past the "infantile power fantasy spurred by personal issues" (specifically the origin) aspect of the genre to tell a unique story.

Will be screening at CinemaCon in April. Should be a lot of reaction coming. WB must have a lot of confidence this will be a hit. Top Gun Maverick also screened there last April before it opened.

Looks like Tom Cruise really likes this movie. Of course, folk are posting claims this means that Tom Cruise is joining the DCU. At best, I expect he's simply eyeing Andy Muschietti as a potential director for one of his movies.
