The trailer looks beyond lame :/

Im getting spoiled by Nolan's and Snyder's approach to comics. Everything else seems to be made for preteen.

Iron Man would like to disagree with you on that. Though not as plot complex as Nolan films, they're still pretty darn good.

Thats right, I forgot about Iron Man, I enjoyed those, but not as much as Batman, Watchmen or Sin City.

The thing with TDK, it's so mentally draining compared to IM. Some people like to be mentally challenge throughout the film, while others like to sit back and enjoy a somewhat mindless comic book movie. Watching both IM films, I didn't want it to stop. So much fun.

And this time I dont agree. Batman, yeah, its tense but I dont think it's mentally draining, its just a tense rollercoeaster. Watchmen it is mentally draining, maybe even Sin City, but Batman dont.

I like my superheroes flawed and human. Maybe that's always why I loved Batman.

Yeah I hope even if they aren't directing they get to oversee the movies leading up to justice league.

sucks

Its like this

but with some CGI. They believe that if they contract some "good" actors (note the quotes) and add some graphics, they will have a hit. Who knows, the ppl is stupid by definition.

does that include you, or you just like to state your opinion as fact? people have different tastes, deal with it.

I think it's kind of sad that these two film-makers are the pinnacle of comic book based films. I mean Nolan has some taste at least, but Snyder?

How's that Snyder has no "taste"?

It's like Snyder's whole thing about making films is to make them so "badass" to the point of being ridiculously hammy and bombastic. Watchmen is a film I really want to like but there is so much done in bad taste; like he has no aesthetic principles beyond "cool" that I find it difficult to like.

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
