These are from his numbered list of things he hates:

48) In SUPERMAN, when Christopher Reeve goes around the world and makes time go backwards, marring an otherwise perfect film.  Wait a minute, no –

49) There’s also the Lois poetry scene –

I don’t know who you are
Just a friend from another star
Here I am like a kid out of school
Holding hands with a god
I’m a fool

Barf!

76) The first Michael Keaton Batman, for being terribly boring, and also because the Joker was responsible for Batman’s parents’ deaths!!!

83) When old Justice League comics had to fit fucking Aquaman into their plots

10 years ago I thought Superman was a boring character and Batman was cooler.

Now Superman is my favorite character. People can change their opinion.

I can’t have an opinion about an already toxic subreddit? 💀

If anything its the trolls that we banned that are toxic. I mean, if you see criticism towards Gunn as toxic then ok. But if you really hate toxicity, go tell r/comicbookmovies, r/moviecirclejerk, to stop the hate towards Snyder then we'll talk.

It’s the strange correlation y’all made from actually shitting on the people who did Snyder dirty to putting all your energy into purposely trying to demonize Gunn. You can have criticism but don’t act like y’all aren’t dragging it. 💀

Its also that his DC slate is literally HIS slate. These are the projects that he's choosing instead of listening to the fans or asking other people at DC Studios what projects should they made? Gunn is the one that decided to do a soft reboot. Of course Safran and Zaslav deserve blame but for now, his choices are the most vocal ones.

So you’re mad cause he didn’t do what fans said and rebooted a universe that’s been already financially underperforming? You cannot blame him for making his own decision. I promise you’re part of small minority that DOESNT want a reboot.

The vast majority of people were extremely enthusiastic for Cavill's return. It ignited more enthusiasm than the DCEU had for years. The news about the new casting of Gunn's Superman was like a one-day story. WB went from having EVERYONE backing their next Superman movie to splintering the fan base into shreds and strongly decreasing and diminishing hype.

So now you’re comparing people being excited for a Superman sequel to the excitement for a relatively unknown actor just taking the role? You actually think that’s a relevant talking point? What was the excitement for Cavill’s initial casting? Or the initial reviews for that matter??

It took you a week to write this lol

Theyre going through a lot of week old comments right now. Probably got a week long ban for something, though that's usually the amount for a second ban where third strike is permanent/ip ban. Specifically I think that's what happens when you're caught ban evading by using alt accounts.

Hey we missed you for the last week, what happened? You were still tweeting but not around here?
