Thank goodness we're getting a Young Justice Season 3, because otherwise it seems every new DC cartoon will just be a comedy-type series for kids.

i wonder if this is their answer to star wars female lead show.

it's rather sad these days when i think 'femenism!' rather than 'cool idea'.

but that WAS my first thought with the star wars show thanks to some of the things going on there, and not more than 2 years ago the reaction to BOTH would have been cool.

now i have to question who's doing it and what are their motives?
sad

So young girls aren't allowed to have their own superhero shows? You're really going to be that guy going "wah, this isn't for me and I don't like it!"?

Awesome!
I really liked the concept, toys and what I saw of the first show. And I like Faust a lot, so I'm excited.

But is it just a new season with a redesign, reboot or something new entirely with the brand?

sigh.

it's posts like that that make me wonder why things like this are made.

is it all 'girl power' 'death to the patriarchy' or is it 'this is a cool idea that deserves it's shot to shine?


just because i question the motives behind a show these days doesn't mean i don't think it's a good idea. but all this 'men are evil' stuff i see coming out of other areas makes me wonder when i see announcements like it.

but, that's my problem. feel free to ignore it if it bugs you

there are reasons why i'm a big grump. dealing with people on forums daily is part of it ).


Besides, if we where all happy and accepting of things hollywood gave us, we'd be drones .

i'm not.

I grew up in a time with strong female leads. i never questioned it and HATED the blonde dumb stereo type.

But when i see things like the new head of lucas film saying things like 'the male audience doesn't matter anymore'...that's not right either.

and then things like the feigbuster debacle where they actively went out of their way to make every man dumb or annoying or evil....

yeah, it changes my viewpoint on things like this and not in the way people who usually create these type of shows intended.

As i said before, more female driven characters would have been unquestionably welcome not more than two years before. now i question why it's being done because past projects put me on guard :/

even i find it quite sad. but, like i said, my problem . you're free to enjoy things however you wish .

****, I'd much prefer if Ever After High got a full fledge series. Series has such enriching characters, great development and endless possibilities. Granted, post rebrand has been lacking

He's got one thesis, and he's sticking to it.
Well two.

1) If it doesn't cater to me specifically, it must be tokenist crap and I hate it.
2) People who disagree with me and played out complaints are making the world worse!

I agree with Titan97, I'd be far more likely to watch this if it were Super Best Friends Forever.
But it looks cute, and Faust is magic.
