When you say 'Arrowverse,' are you referring to the Arrow series on Netflix or some other outlet?

Arrow from CW, which crosses over into Flash and I guess Supergirl now. They've actually done a good job of building a DC verse.

I watched the first five or so episodes of Season 1. I remember it was good but it's tough these days for me to binge watch like I used to. I'll have to get back to it at some point and start the series again.

I've seen the Flash (Season 1 on Netflix anyway) and remember the crossover there.

Me to a friend after the movie: "They really wasted Tom Hardy, huh?"

Friend: "That was Jai Courtney."

Saw it again yesterday with Jr., and I enjoyed it more the second time.
Any time is a good time for pie.

I saw it tonight with my wife.

I enjoyed it quite a bit - more than my wife did which is highly unusual.

This movie has two excellent villain's - and I consider Amanda Waller to be a villain.  Best super hero villains since Loki.

The plot was predictable and the action scenes were dark.  The wife complained that "DC always shoots their fight scenes in the dark.  Marvel fights in the daytime and I like that."

But the villain was to me at least an interesting allegory of Satan and his empty promises compared to the hope of redemption to save your soul if you (eventually) repent from evil.  Also how our actions on a day to day basis determine if we choose good or evil.  My wife saw this also, but found it more formulaic for her tastes.

Not as good as Deadpool or Captain America Civil War.  But I liked it more than Captain America the Winter Soldier or Avengers Age of Ultron.

In sum, I was very pleasantly surprised how good this was. 

Now for the controversial opinion.  Harley's butt is better than Black Widow's.

^ I think the key component in the above two posts is the word "rub." I think these gents can agree on that when it comes to either subject.

;D
