* If most of the web is going to become unusable, I need a better way to chat recent movies and shows here. Reddit is still a mess from the blackout and certain types of users leaving. Twitter seems to be even worse recently, not due to any specific change but more due to sheer fatigue from paid users dominating. Also, it settling in that things will not get better. Actually, once the writer's strike is over there will be another exodus of people who have followings based on what they know as opposed to spreading hate or just buying a voice.

So yeah, I'ma need DW to recreate the heyday of LJ's media crit years.

* Here's hoping The Flash movie tanks

for a number of reasons including...

for obvious reasons but also they deepfaked 3 or 4 dead actors into the film? This is the masterpiece that WB was so dead set on that they've been overlooking everything about Ezra Miller? Because it's just 'too important' and their performance 'could not be done by any other actor'. Kinda funny to be pretending to value actors and their unique performances with all the sticking in dead actors.

I would seriously love it if this all bites WB in the butt. Maybe a futile hope because they have been so extra about this film that a lot of people seem to feel a need to see it for themselves, but I can dream.

* I feel like DW could really use a comm for people posting links to reviews on their journals. Black Mirror just came out and various DWers can't talk about it much because we are all separate. Starting a Black Mirror comm and promoting it, starting a comm for each little flash in a pan canon that comes along, would be tiring and people wouldn't bother joining many. But a catch-all place for people to post links to their reviews would be really useful and maybe make this a good place for chatting media again.

But, I have done enough 'build it and see if they come'. I am burnt out. There are comms I had lots of people begging me to start once I proposed them and then... I was suddenly talking to myself.

If someone were to start some sort of WidthersReview type comm I would suggest ( various things, but again not doing it myself so this is just me kinda rambling... )

I'm lucky that I do typically get some comments to my reviews posts, but I'd also love to read a lot more by other people.

* With the current stuff going on I should find content for my current comms but omg I feel like I am stuck in a time loop.

* Oh hey, Linda Hamilton is going to be on the final season of Stranger Things. Excellent get. That was aaalll today's Tudum event had for Stranger Things and chat was not happy about it. (Tudum is Netflix's big 'announce things and give sneak peaks' event.)
