REVIEW: Peacemaker Season 2 Premiere Proves DCU Is a James Gunn Vanity Project

REVIEW: Peacemaker Season 2 Premiere Proves DCU Is a James Gunn Vanity Project

James Gunn’s much-hyped Peacemaker Season 2 premiere has finally arrived — and I sincerely wish it hadn’t and that I didn’t have to review it… What unspools in the first episode is a chaotic, vulgar, self-indulgent disaster that makes even Gunn’s shaky Superman reboot look like a cinematic triumph by comparison. I enjoyed much of the first season. I like John Cena. But this episode? It is amateurish, infantile dreck with almost nothing redeemable.

The Writers Guild Wants To Organize Podcasts…But Don’t Hold Your Breath — An Editorial by LW Ghost

According to an August 14th article by The Hollywood Reporter’s Katie Killkenny, candidates running for Board elections at the WGAW (Writers Guild of America West) are talking up the potential to unionize/organize writers for podcasts, “verticals,” and, perhaps, video games. They believe adding those folks to the ranks will make up for the fact that overall the number of working writers in Hollywood is down markedly since the last and long-suffered-over WGA contract agreement was reached. They see expansion into online media as a natural way to pick up the membership slack.
