    make 100 of anything, make a hundred blenders a hundred cars or a hundred bottles of hooch - there’s gonna be good ones, bad ones, mediocre ones, a whole range.

    you can see this in star trek, star wars, marvel, etc.

    funny enough, you don’t see it in the DCU…because aquaman is a high point over there. blech

      Re: DCU, THE Suicide Squad is quite enjoyable. The series Peacemaker that is a spin-off of it is also good. THE Batman is good, and the Penguin series is good.

      But ya, they have some huge stinkers. I basically just assume a DCU product is going to be garbage. I can’t believe they still let Zack Snyder make movies.

        The Batman and Penguin are DC but not DCU. The Suicude Squad and Peacemaker are both made by Gunn - they’re kind of the unofficial start of a new era. The Zack Snyder days is the DCU we’re criticizing. It seems with Gunn things are getting better.

        valid points.

        I don’t think anyone can make a lot of any product and have uniform perfection, it just doesn’t work that way.
