No Bat-Fucks Given

In case you've been away from the internet for a week or more, and I highly doubt that, you've had to do already noticed the big buzz around the latest (Teen) Titans TV series trailer featuring the particularly infamous quote heard 'round the world, "Fuck Batman."

And while it shouldn't be that shocking considering how much that exact phrase has to have been repeated amongst the many heroes and villains of the DCU at various times over the years,  it's the fact that his partner Robin (or maybe ex-partner based off the overall tone of the show and promo) is the one that said it right out of the gate that makes it so shocking.

So yeah, (Teen) Titans is apparently getting the Riverdale treatment and will be edgy AF considering the demographic.

Hey, I don't have a problem with it. Whatever, I may, or may not watch it, but at least the show's already doing its job in generating buzz a head of the premiere.

Here's an online article that helps round up most of the popular jokes and memes dedicated to this new Bat-Phenomenon now:

You just know if this was back during the Adam West Batman show and Dick had said that to Batman, Bruce would've whipped out the ol' industry bat-sized Bat-soap for the boy to chomp on......after getting spanked......probably.....

And it looks like Dick's not the only Bat-Family member to break bad......






If this isn't a PSA I don't know what else is......



Also in the news, director James Gunn is the latest celeb to get in deep shit for some bad stuff he said, which led to Disney shit-canning his ass off Guardians of the Galaxy.

Yup. 

Thanks to the beauty of the internet we nice little round up of old tweets Gunn posted where he claims he was trying to be provocatively funny and offensive, all at the same time.

Here's just a small sample of what he tweeted out:

Yeah, probably not a good idea to ever joke about pedophilia like that, especially if you're a celeb who's constantly in the public eye.

Now apparently even though these are old tweets from around 2012 and earlier, before the first Guardians' movie, someone at Disney and Marvel just had to have known this shit was out there floating around to be discovered right?

Surely he would've and in fact HAD told his respective bosses about those......right? I guess not.

As I write about this, there's already plenty of public outcry about this, both in support of Gunn, as in the case of Drax himself, actor/wrestler Dave Bautista, and those against him.

In fact as of now, he has about over 150,000 people who have signed a petition to Disney to re-hire him.

Yeah, good luck with that. Ask Rosanne how that well that'll work out for him. 

Look, I'm all for inappropriate humor and dirty, morbid jokes and shit, but making bad jokes about being a pedophile is dumb and really not that funny.....except if you happen to be an actual pedophile.

And for the love of Christ, if you're a well-known celeb auditioning for a big job that'll increase your public presence in the media, how about DON'T joke about pedophilia....or rape....or anything that could be closely associated to those things.

In fact, I've whipped a handy aid for all you celebs out there still debating on whether or not you should tell or tweet out a bad dirty joke:

You're welcome celebs.

I will say this about Gunn, he the was the best thing to happen to the Guardians' franchise, and now I'm curious who'll replace him. It's not going to be easy, especially since a familiar and well-working theme and tone has already been established. Then again, if Gamora's staying dead, as the rumors are saying, maybe a new change of direction will better reflect the changes that were caused by Infinity War.

Fantasy Team-Up: Cable and The Teen Titans

What's up people?

Just dropped my laptop off today, so hopefully everything will get fixed by next week.
I wound up getting a new hard drive with one terabytes' worth of data for the same price as the normal 5gigs my old hard drive held, so double the amount of data for the same price? Can't beat that.

So I was thinking about what to blog about since I'm now on the "post when I feel like it" schedule, and I wrote down some ideas.

Today it's a new edition of Fantasy Team-Up with Marvel comics' time-travelling, militant mutant Cable and DC Comics' mega-popular teen heroes, the Teen Titans.

Why this particular pairing? I say why not.

















If you consider Cable's history of mentoring and training young mutants, like when he took over as official leader of the New Mutants, and transformed them into X-Force, the idea of Cable doing the same for the Teen Titans is too good too resist not contemplating.

Here's my scenario......
The Teen Titans have just survived an attack by either H.I.V.E., The Fearsome 5, or even the deadly Deathstroke, and they're licking their wounds. When all of a sudden a brilliant, blinding flash of light appears out of nowhere, demanding the Titan's attention.

A mysterious figure emerges from the light and smoke.....a very big figure, armed to the fucking teeth and confused as hell about where and when, he is.

The Titans inspect Cable, as Cable does the same to the colorful clad teens.
After learning who they are, and what they do, and their entire documented history, Cable makes the tired and weary Titans an offer they can't refuse.

"So, your mentors have abandoned you. You're attacked on a consistent basis. You've survived so far thanks to your powers and luck, but that's not enough. You're good, but I can make you better. I can transform you from a rag-tag bunch of former sidekicks into a totally cohesive and superior fighting force to be reckoned with.

The question is, are you willing?

At first they're insulted by the stranger's words.
Then they stop and start to consider them.

Before they can answer, A new but familiar emerges from the shadows.
Deathstroke the Terminator. And at long last, he'll finally honor his dead son's contract, and kill the Teen Titans...

Go Go Gadget.....

What's up people? Happy MLK(free day off) today!

I don't have a skit or post dedicated to Dr.Martin Luther King Jr, nor his famous speech about inequality. Nope but I do have an inappropriately funny skit that just happens to have a black guy in it. Does that count?

The End
