Son: Dad, weren't those two guys comedians?
Dad: Yep. But when they put on those black suits and sunglasses, the joke was over. These guys could actually bring the house down.

This!! As someone with a distinctly working class British accent, seeing Constantine not speak as a scouser hurts. People don’t realise accent bias and prejudice is a genuine thing in the uk and John speaking in a posh southern accent takes away a big aspect of his w/c identity.
To be completely fair, there is a strong argument that the only accurate way to adapt the character would be with the backdrop of 1980s politics and no studio is going to take that risk.
John Constantine (from 1985 to 2011) is my favourite fictional character of all time. So far the only adaptation to even get his name right is the one that gender-flipped him. Considering current developments I have absolutely zero faith in James Gunn’s DCU to get him right.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: if when you hear John Constantine you think "badass demon hunter" you should be kept as far away from him as possible

Xennials. We are Xennials. The end of Gen X and the beginning the Millennials. We are in our 40s and think we are still 20, which is a problem when your back randomly locks up. We can name most songs from the 80s to about 10 yrs ago. We still think the 80s was only 20 yrs ago.

The angry mob attacking James Acaster is proving exactly what we highly masked autistic people have been saying for years. People love the quirkiness, creativity, and quick learning but the second you are a slight inconvenience the fucking pitchforks come out. Its exhausting.

Just to be clear, I am not leaving The Batman Part II. I am profoundly grateful to Steven for coming to my aid during this challenging time to help me finish principal photography. Thank you to all for your concern and well wishes. 🦇

When this comes up I mostly think of this interview with Michael Ironside, when he asked Verhoeven point blank why he was making a right wing movie. avclub.com/michael-ironside-…
