I'll always want characters to retain original hair color but i can accept it not happening if the adaption is at least worth it

I still don't get why ITSV made the Peter from Miles' universe blonde. Did they want to just make him look different from Peter B? Didn't bother me at all, but it seemed like a totally random change.

I always wondered about that myself, but I think it was a way of establishing the multiverse idea by showing a slightly different version of Peter right off the bat and likely a Ben Reilly homage, since that version of Peter was very reminiscent of Ben's more free-spirited, upbeat, confident Spidey.
The blond Spidey in that movie is pretty much how I wish 616 Peter was written, honestly.
'The Batman,' a 2022 blockbuster, wasn't plagiarized, US judge rules
NEW YORK, March 27 (Reuters) - Warner Bros Entertainment (WBD.O), opens new tab didn't steal the plot for its 2022 blockbuster "The Batman" from a writer who created a story about the caped crusader three decades earlier, a federal judge in Manhattan ruled on Wednesday.
U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer also said the writer Christopher Wozniak infringed copyrights belonging to DC Comics, which employed him as a freelance artist in 1990 when he wrote "The Ultimate Riddle," later retitled "The Blind Man's Hat."
"We respectfully disagree with the court's decision and are considering our next steps," Wozniak's lawyer, Terry Parker, said in an email.
Wozniak claimed he was "stunned" to learn that "The Batman" was a near copy of "The Ultimate Riddle," with the Riddler terrorizing a Gotham City beset by crime and controlled by a corrupt banking cartel.
But in a 45-page decision, Engelmayer said Wozniak intentionally and without consent lifted material from DC Comics' works to create his story, which "liberally exploits --indeed, is rife with" Batman characters and plot elements.
"The story's use of the Batman character and the surrounding protected elements is an act of clear and blatant copyright infringement," the judge wrote.
Engelmayer also said key similarities between the works --serial killers who are loners bent on destroying society, villains who taunt pursuers with "clues and riddles," and moments of "clarity or epiphany" that propel villains to crime -- were too commonplace to support Wozniak's copyright claim.
Sam Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison on Thursday.
For the latter, the judge in a footnote cited movies including "Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith," where Anakin Skywalker succumbs to the dark side of the Force and becomes Darth Vader.
Engelmayer also rejected Wozniak's "wholly speculative" claim for how Warner Bros might have gotten access to his story.
A lawyer for Warner Bros and DC Comics had no immediate comment.
Got hit with that UNO reverse card.

Well that was a bad attempt.

I'm grateful Gunn didn't cast Fillion as Hal. I get why some people like that idea, but I'd only be able to see Fillion doing his usual schtick, and not Hal Jordan.
Regarding the hair color debate, I'm sure some people didn't like it, but I don't recall people losing their minds over blonde Val Kilmer as Bruce Wayne.

Kind of why I'm not at all into the Glenn Powell as Hal idea. Its like they saw him play an arrogant pilot in one movie and thought this means he's the best and only choice for Hal. And the idea is super boring to me, personally.
It's nothing against Powell, either. I loved him in Top Gun. I doubt he wants to only play pilots his whole career either.
I mean, if they choose someone who seems right for the role, that's all that matters to me at the end of the day.
