[QUOTE=Bat-Meal;4986014]I don't like the continued rumors going around that CW wants to cast [B]Peyton List[/B]. The issue being the fact that she already played Lisa Snart/Golden Glider in multiple episodes of The Flash - making her far too recognizable in the Arrowverse and established as that character. :p[/QUOTE]
Which one?
Man I can't even recall what Golden Glider looked like. Remember the episodes, but drawing a blank on the face.

I really don't understand this mentality in movies and TV these days where if an actor wants to leave a role, you have to reboot or re-tool the entire thing. It makes zero sense to me.
Not to play the "ornery old man" card, but when I was growing up I had three different Batmen in the movies (four if you count the animated one). You just accepted it and moved on.

I like Peyton List but they really didn't do much with Lisa. Then again, they didn't do much with The Rogues as a whole...

Indeed. They took one of the best bits of the Flash property and squandered it. Forgettable villains of the week and one season big bad.
Saw that yahoo news had an article about this whole thing, and how the creators are looking for another LGBTQ+ woman to step into the role.
Then I saw comments wondering, "Why did CW make Batwoman lesbian!?" and "Why does it have to be LGBTQ+ to be the role!?" etc.
Further proof that ignorant a-holes exist everywhere.

Well, some of the villain of the weeks stand out more then others...but until season 6 people haven't really loved a Big Bad since season 2 (although I think Savitar has his fans).

I remember that crazy stuff from when they first casted Rose. "Why is Batgirl gay now?" "Why is it not girl and now it's woman?". Some people need to do research before commenting lol.
So people didn't realise her character wasn't Barbara Gordon? I guess those people haven't read comics for over 20 years, lol.

I wouldn't say it was a large amount, but I saw a few of them online. I'm guessing they've never read a Batman comic at all haha.
[QUOTE=Mutant God;4988900]Which one?[/QUOTE]
The original Peyton List, not Peyton Roi List.

I know, it was just a funny thought to me to imagine blonde Peyton as Batwoman. But I think she could actually play Flamebird/Bette Kane

Bette Kane was replaced by Mary Hamilton though.
The speculation continues, I don't really care that much, but this video was kinda interesting: :p
