    Really? Really? The hell can anyone say against the premise of that book, and not realize how racist it sounds to be against Superman stopping the freaking Klan? I mean, it's the KKK (or a reasonable facsimile thereof), defending them is like defending freaking Nazis!

    Pretty sure the Q defend them as well.

    I have heard everything from The Klan is not around any more so why bother? to
    Of course we have to rehash a group that was around 50 years ago just to make the blacks happy etc...

    Humanity makes me sad. I hope every school gets a copy of this book. I hope this book gets used in classes to teach kids to read or something.

    Have you told them it's based on an episode of the old 50's Superman radio show?

    Talking logic to a Q is like slamming your head against a brick wall. Yes I did. And it did not matter. it all boiled down to me defending a PC culture that has just gone to far to appease certain type of people.

    Powerpuff Pilot Being Redeveloped at The CW



    Sounds like they are keeping the main cast.

    So, the live-action movie is a no-go? If so, that's a pity. Sorry, I haven't been following the project closely and this post by you has me confused.

    I haven't heard anything about a live action movie.

    The live action show pilot that they did make was rejected, but the idea wasn't so they're just being asked to do it again, only better this time

    I'm happy to see Ms. Bellum and the narrator being there.

    Well, this is definitely something I feel like it's important to take the time to get right.

    Ming Na Wen: Kept her mouth shut and landed a role on the Mandalorian and then the Book Of Boba Fett.

    Chloe Bennett: Criticized Disney for tossing Agents Of Shield into limbo. Ended up on this show.

    So the pliot script has allegedly leaked. Read through this twitter thread.
    https://twitter.com/fawfulator/statu...142596612?s=19

    Buttercup is bi, Blossom killed Mojo, Mojo was a regular human who was the professor lab assistant instead of a monkey, the professor is an opportunistic ******* who is a stage dad, professor and Ms. Bellum are exes, PPG cartoon exists in this universe.

    Good God, this sounds like ****.

    Reading through these, my thought is not so much 'I can understand why they wanted a new Pilot', it's more 'the CW saw SOMETHING in that crap that they felt could be salvaged?!'

    Actually, this thought just crystalized for me. This reminds me of the Power Rangers reboot movie they did a few years ago, but done worse. That movie also tried to take a kids property and make it 'edgy', and yet they still kept all of the ridiculous names like 'Putties' or even 'Rita Repulsa'. If they are going to go dark, get rid of all that cutsie sh*t and give things more realistic names.

    While I suppose it is possible that that "leaked script" is real, nobody has put any effort into validating it as real and sometimes things read like bad parody because they ARE bad parody
