The movie studio with exclusive rights to Batman and Superman — two of the most iconic heroes of the modern era — can’t figure out how to make good movies but the guys at Marvel somehow made an Ant-Man movie that made half a billion dollars
James Gunn and Peter Safran are stepping down as co-heads of DC Studios after four years:
• Marvel Studios veteran Jeremy Latcham will take over as president and chief creative officer on Dec. 1
• Gunn and Safran will “return full time to their creative work” ahead of “Man of Tomorrow,” the sequel to 2025’s “Superman,” which hits theaters July 9, 2027.
• Said Gunn and Safran: “Four years ago, we set out to unite DC under one creative vision. In that time, we helped restore Superman to the heart of DC, while opening new doors and telling new stories in film and television with Peacemaker, Creature Commandos, Lanterns and Clayface. We’re immensely proud of the team that turned that ambition into something real, including the actors, crews and executives we had the opportunity to collaborate with. We’ve shared a creative history with Jeremy going back to Marvel, and we’re eager to see the perspective he brings to DC’s next chapter. We’re excited to return to what drew us to this job in the first place, which is telling the stories we love, including the next chapter of Clark and Lex’s journey in Man of Tomorrow.”

As a former debate kid I can’t help but admire how good Pete is at steering the question to whatever answer he wants to give. Also as a former debate kid I can tell you that he definitely annoyed people at parties
I’ve never seen this happen in a Buttigieg interview before.
Patrick Bet David brings up Pete’s late father’s work translating Antonio Gramsci.
Pete turns it around onto the American political right.

Elon Musk spent like $400 million on 2026 primaries and I don’t know what it costs to build a hospital anywhere in the world but I bet $400 million would make a really big dent in the price and that’s why he’s a bad person
Hey can one of the people I know that’s much smarter than me either right here in the comments or in private explain to me how this happened

This string of Webber/Rowden posts is genuinely refreshing to read especially if you know how tough the @calebrowden v @s_webber race was. Two elected officials that often disagree, but any voters would be lucky to have represent them
Worth noting today: 10 years ago Caleb & I ran a brutal race against each other. He won & I lost.
Last session we worked together to honor his brother-in-law.
We disagree politically. We work together on what matters. This is how America is SUPPOSED to work. RIP Evan. #MoLeg

Trump: “Well I wouldn’t do that, I would never do that, did you hear, he said ‘sir don’t touch my girlfriend’ I said I would never do that, but I’ve known many beautiful women, many beautiful women, and she’s beautiful isn’t she, I’m not supposed to say that you know”
When Obama was casting his ballot for the 2014 midterms, a man jokingly told the president not to touch his girlfriend, who was voting next to him. Obama then casually roasted the man until he finished voting.😂

“I was lured into a cult by a bunch of old men with too much power and in mere hours I will have killed dozens of children as well as my wife before getting beaten so bad that I am disfigured beyond imagination”

We basically got him 20 years too early because Hillary probably wins against McCain and we could have had this dude in the senate for 20 years and then storming into 2028 as the obvious frontrunner who would stomp the hell out of anyone the GOP has in the field right now
OBAMA: The president wasn't even mad. About The Saddam Hussein comparison. That part didn't bother him. But he was very upset about The Cheesecake Factory. He took great umbrage. He said I didn't understand the work of the artisans in the White House.
They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke.
