The issue is that movie exposes their mismanagement of the DC brand. If the Snyder cut is successful and God forbid gains critical acclaim then bringing in Whedon to restructure the film would have seen as a mistake. Worst case scenario if it being a success is that it can fuck up whatever plans the current regime have for DC.
Yeah Midnightās Edge was saying this as well. WB/DC have been dysfunctional. This movie shines a light on that and if it is a successā¦shit will likely hit the fan.
Huh, turns out I already have access to HBO Max because of my HBO Now subscription through Hulu. Just downloaded the app and it automatically logged me on. Sweet!
I wonder if folks who have AT&T cell phone service will get a 1 year free trial HBO MAX?
Verizon did a 1yr deal for Disney Plus.
So besides having all the DC stuff is there a reason to keep DC unlimited if you have HBOMax? Was reading some of the comic stuff on there and wasnāt bad to watch some Batman Beyond.
I believe Harley Quinn TAS and Young Justice are still exclusive to DC Universe platform.
There are probably others , but I dont have the service to check and compare.
Harley Quinn airs on TV so itās not exclusive to DCU. At this point itās only Titans and Young Justice.
Chad, do they have the old Looney Tunes stuff on there?
Doubtful, AT&T has spent a lot in the last decade buying up companies but they gambled big buying Direct TV and transitioning it as their premier cable/satellite TV service. Most folk know unless you have no choice due to your area you donāt use satellite TV service and that was before the days online streaming. Combined with them raising prices, plus lackluster customer service and bungling their own cordless attempts by pricing themselves out if the cord cutting market average they are shedding customers left and right meaning they need every dollar they can get from HBO Max.
I donāt have time to dig through everything right now, but I see Looney Tunes dating back to 1931.
Yeah, not sure what they count as a āseasonā, but more than 30 seasons of Looney Tunes.
The only thing I saw was the new series, but I didnāt look hard at all, just what was on the Featured bar. So I donāt know.
My son wanted to watch Looney Tunes after watching Space Jam like 5 times. I was really excited cause Looney Tunes were a big part of my childhood. My disappointment when I couldnt find ANY episode on Youtube. I know copyrights but i thought a couple could have sneaked by. All he could find is a really modern version with Lola Bugs and Daffy as main characters. It sucks. Is like a bad sitcom really. Luckily he is also watching OG Tom and Jerry on YT. Imma need to buy those DVD collections Chad.
I bought the first Blu-ray Looney tunes platinum set a few years ago. I need to get the other 2.
I hope WB would put out more restored stuff on bluray in the future.
I watched the first episode of new Looney Tunesā¦ surprisingly I thought it was good. The guy thatās voicing Bugs Bunny does a great job matching the classic voice style, imoā¦and the Daffy voice was acceptable as well. Naturally it was not 100% perfect but still serviceable/enjoyable, at least to me. I could hang with it.
Both Daffy and Bugs on the Looney Tunes show are voiced by Eric Bauzaā¦
Good to hear. I still havenāt gotten a chance to check it out.
Was it funny?
yeah I enjoyed it. First episode is Daffy and Porky, then itās one with Bugs and Yosemite Samās arm-wrestling match in an old western saloon. Just like the old 'toons, these are very shortāeach one being about 6 minutes or so.
Daffy is one of my favorite Looney Tunes characters so naturally I enjoyed that oneā¦this reminds me; it was always a coin flip between which version of Daffy was more entertainingā¦ early on he was an insane, off the wall characterā¦then later he was the conniving, petty asshole usually complaining about something. ha, one of my favorites of all time was when the world kept changing, making Daffy increasingly frustrated, and we find out it was Bugs as the artist/animator trolling him the whole timeā Daffy yelling out āWHO is responsible for this?!ā (and beforeāāoh brotherā¦what a way to run a railroad.ā) haha that never gets old to me.
Dude I love that episode! So fucking funny. Bugs turns him into a weird four legged creature with a flower around his neck and Daffy just goes with it.
One of my favorites with Daffy is when heās Robbin Hood and Porky is Friar Tuck. Daffy keeps fucking up running into trees and rocks and shit
yeah the first time I saw that Robin Hood episodeā¦ just Porkyās constant laughing at him had me cracking up big timeā¦
