The WONDER TWINS project shows us the dark side of pandering.

I can’t help but think that this is my fault, somehow: “Warner Bros. Pictures is currently in the process of developing HBO Max’s next live-action DC film, centering around super-powered alien siblings the Wonder Twins.” …I mean, I’m the target demographic, right? I watched the Super-Friends show. About midway through its long and complicated run through the Saturday morning cartoon lineup, so I guess that they want a shot at my eyeballs for this particular nostalgia hit.

…Sorry?

  1. I blame Justin Trudeau.

    (What? He’s the right age, has a whole lot more power, it’s about the right amount of foresight and maturity, and it will probably be the least horrible thing he does all year.)

  2. Nothing inherently wrong with the twins, other than their writers were sub par – every problem eventually resolved to something that could be solved with a big chunk of ice or a lot of heat.

    No subtlety, no finesse.. and no real character arc…
