But what about the WACOM stylus? Is it any good or is it all hype?

The stylus for use on an iPad? I can't imagine it's any good. The original iPads just aren't designed for that kind of interaction. I don't think there's a better drawing experience right now than iPad Pro with Pencil - I have yet to use one myself, just going by reviews and comparing against the short time I've spent with a number of Wacoms over the years.

I figure it's like comparing track pads on notebooks. In the world of trackpads Synaptics was the most well known company, Cirque #2. But the best trackpads on the planet for over 10 years have always been Apple's. They just don't make them for anyone else.

This former WB employee is channeling me in this letter. Open Letter From Former WB Employee Bashes CEO, Zach Snyder, and Wonder Woman

They don't use their real name and they mention two movies (BvS and Jungle Book) that have each made almost $1B boxoffice. Suicide Squad is over $330M already. Their message is really mixed up between their dislike for these movies and whether or not WB's efforts are financially successful. They need to do more homework.

Get Ready to lose some jobs.

"People are worried about their jobs being taken over by robots.

And so, in a recent note to clients, a Morgan Stanley team led by Elga Bartsch included a chart showing the probability of various jobs becoming automatable.

They used data from a recent study by Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A. Osborne, which found that about 47% of total US employment is at risk of being replaced by machines over the next two decades."

Computer Programmers, too? That's it, mankind is doomed.

That list looks like it was made by a poorly programmed pseudo-AI. FFS, that's some brainless analysis these guys are getting paid for. I should have gone to work in market analysis in the mid 90's as I'm sure I can bull**** with much more confidence and believability than most of the jokers in that field.

Another hour and I'm off for the weekend. All I want to do tonight is eat, watch a little of the Olympics, and go to bed.

Have fun, it's a mess but you might like it

Fixed.

I will say that Suicide Squad is a lot better than BvS. There, I gave it a complement.

So it's really better than every Marvel movie? Wow, I wasn't expecting that. Better than 80%, but not all. Cool.

Fixed.

I think I read that RIDDICK liked it? Surely that shows something?

I was actually surprised that he liked it. It definitely had some decent parts in it, especially compared to BvS. I think I just get my hopes up too high for DC's films because I love the characters, but I don't agree with how DC is handling them.

WW and JL look like they might be crowd favourites - critics will still hate them but DC is slowly putting this universe together.

I really liked the trailer for Wonder Woman. I'm desperately hoping they don't screw her up.

I'm hoping they'll do something clever like Flashpoint to bring future films a little closer in tone to the comics. I really want a brighter, more optimistic take on Superman, I couldn't help but feel all the way through BvS that Snyder was enjoying making the character suffer.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

As much as I liked Gadot, there's something to be said for nostalgia.

Though this was probably my favorite moment in BvS.

Yep.
