I find this very interesting. Care to expand on this?

People today don't want to see anything other than themselves represented. It's irksome. You know exactly what I'm talking about. I wasn't so much accusing you of it, but I'll be damned if I'm going to join the chorus of detractors simply 'cause the actress and her looks are out of my league. "Oh noes, that fictitious character is wearing too little clothing. She's fit and attractive, I must TEAR HER DOWN!!!" The jealousy, and rage, man.

If you have to strip someone down to near-naked levels to make them look "sexy", you're not trying hard enough. There's nothing "wrong" with it, necessarily, and certain contexts almost require it... but most of the looks DC's given her in the past 5 years just don't seem like they're trying very hard. There are plenty of ways to preserve the idea of the original look and update it for a video game or a movie or whatever, without just saying "scantily-clad Hot Topic girl" and calling it a day.
All the costumes are ridiculous. This is possibly the least ridiculous.

@ Plastron:
Wait, are you saying Cranberry can cause a yeast infection?

Also, I need a new ipad. The keyboard response time is a nightmare.

Holy crap, right? I'm sure straight white dudes will get over it in time, it's just that things have catered to their special interest group for so long not being the focus of everything must be really hard for them. We just all need to have a little bit of patience while they go through their growing pains.

Which is why I save all of my efforts for male tears. Just as pretty, but fear more salty.

I'm saying the cranberry will do nothing for the cottage cheese like discharge your vagina is experiencing due to the antibiotics you took to treat your UTI. Yeast infections are a secondary infection brought on by an imbalance in your vulva's natural flora, again due to the treatment of the first.

Things you should try to steer clear of in both cases are tight, non-natural fibered, underpants. White cotton is best, but the case can be made for commando. But again, heavy cottage cheese like discharge...You want to keep the area loose and dry. Tight is the exact opposite of what you want during both a UTI and / or a yeast infection. I would suggest getting your entire nether region checked rather than taking advice from someone on a forum. Both a UTI and a yeast infection could be signs of a greater health risk.

I think Croc looked his best yet in this latest trailer. Much less like a rubber mask.

Croc is the one design that just, well, sucks. Would rather he looked like he had the abnormal skin condition, or was more animalistic, larger. This is some strange hybrid, very artificial looking.

@ Plastron: yeah, my life woulda been different as a white dude, but I still did alright. I'm not looking for my reflection in every white story; Raising Dion (a new comic that looks great) is what we need more of. OITNB, another fantastic story, and a better show than anything CB related. More diverse stories, not reimaginings that feel like platitudes.

But that's me. I also wasn't talking about race...you injected that. I was talking about the need of millenials to make it all about them.

I wouldn't call it so much an injection, as I would a redirect.

Right towards a discussion I wasn't looking to have.

It seems like what is in fashion right now are Daisy Dukes pulled up so high that your butt comes out the leg holes. I see people dressed like this all the time on the train; sitting on the seats! I feel like alerting them as to what could be residing on those tastelessly upholstered petri dishes, but that would be a very uncomfortable conversation to start.

I didn't know Kevin Smith had a daughter let alone that he named her after a comic book character especially Harley Quinn. I bet Paul Dini is proud.
Apparently the 16 year old wants to be the next incarnation of Joker's stooge girl onscreen just because of her name. Time will tell I suppose.

I'm very curious how they're going to tackle the Harley/Joker relationship, which was abusive from it's animated inception.

Did Joker and Harley ever share a scene in any of the trailers so far?

Driving Joker's Lambo with Bats on the roof. Also (presumably) the "I'm not gonna kill you. Just hurt you real REAL bad" scene.

Harley, out of costume points a gun at Joker's head. There is also a suggestion he drops her into a vat of acid.
