Akbar is a Mon Calamari, from the planet Mon Cala. Wow. You really are a big Star Wars fan. I didn't have a clue what planet he came from. I am surprised how much information there is about the character on Wikipedia 'cause I don't remember him being that prominent in the movies but it looks like they extended that in the comic books, books and video games.

Akbar is a very popular and beloved character. In spite of his limited appearance in Return of the Jedi.

Good news for fans who are worried about the upcoming 'Watchmen' TV show crossing over with the 'Arrowverse' it has been confirmed by Regina King 'Watchmen' will be in its own universe and won't have links to any other DC TV series. It also won't connect on to the 'Watchmen' film and be tied down by the rules that were created in it.

I still don't know what to make of this show. It's a mystery.

I don't either, to be honest but according to the HBO Programming Chief the script is said to be "phenomenal" and it will be interesting to see how it turns out and I think we will definitely get it here in Australia 'cause we get a lot of HBO shows on Showcase. I didn't think the movie was as great as some people make out it was like it was okay but I wouldn't say it was a masterpiece. I think this could turn out to be a good show though.

Well, it has been picked up now and how it turns out to be remains to be seen as it could be a disaster far worse than any of the Arrowverse shows or one of the greatest DC shows of all time. We will be watching it when it airs here and I am looking forward to finding out the rest of the cast.

I think Watchmen can work better as a TV series then a movie. There is just so many characters and story elements. Not a big fan of Lindleof though.

There are a lot more things they could do with a 'Watchmen' TV show than another movie but then again I would prefer proper Batman and Spider-Man TV shows over movies 'cause then we would be able to have all of the side characters and villains appear in live action for the first time 'cause when it comes down to it the movies will most likely never include a lot of them 'cause there are so many where a TV show could do that by having different villains every episode and having the Bat family members join over the seasons and they could play the full Batman story out with Bruce starting out as Batman and ending with something along the lines of 'Detective Comics Rebirth' with Batwoman, Red Robin, the Spoiler, Orphan and Clayface as Batman's team in the final season but I think it might be too expensive for them to make proper Batman and Spider-Man TV shows. If they drop the DCEU they should move Batman back to TV.

DC live action needs to branch out from the Trinity. While I love 'em there's an over reliance on them and their supporting cast.

I totally agree with you that Batman and Superman have been overused but you know as well as I know how underused Woman Woman has been and we had to wait around 40 years just to get her on screen again in one movie (sure she appeared for a short time in ‘Batman vs Superman’ and again in ‘Justice League’ but they weren’t her movies) and we have yet to see most of her villains (including her biggest one, Cheetah which I still feel was a mistake not to have as the main villain in the first movie) and the Wonder Girls (Cassie and Donna) and I would be happy to see Warner Bros make 6 Wonder Woman movies since I hear that is what Marvel is going to do with Spider-Man and we have already had 9 live action movies of Spider-Man so Warner Bros might as well go ahead and give Wonder Woman a turn in the spotlight. I mean at this point Green Arrow has been used more in live action than Wonder Woman with 6 seasons of ‘Arrow’ and 4 or 5 seasons of ‘Smallville’ and Ezra Miller is the third actor who has played The Flash in Live Action and the Flash has had more seasons than Wonder Woman and we have got to see a heap of his villains – same with Green Arrow and his villains.
When you compare how many live action movie and TV adaptions we have had of Superman and Batman to Wonder Woman it is sad and I have no problem with DC relying on her for a while ‘cause she has been one of the most underused popular superheroes of all time.

You're right. I shouldn't have included Wonder Woman, because as you rightfully stated she iw woefully under represented in movies.
BTW, I love your awesome Twilight Sparkle emoji!

Thanks and yeah, Wonder Woman has been woefully under-represented in movies, TV shows and animations and hopefully we will get to see that change in the coming years and 'Wonder Woman 2' is a big hit so we can get more 'Wonder Woman' movies with more of her villains and side characters 'cause Wonder Woman fans have been waiting for this for a long time and I was talking to a Wonder Woman fan recently who is very excited about seeing Cheetah. It will be interesting to see what year the third movie takes place in (which I think will happen) and they should definitely use the third to introduce Donna or Cassie or both. Many people who haven't read the comic books don't know the Wonder Girls have been just as important to Wonder Woman as the Robins have to Batman.

We need a Wonder Woman: The Animated Series. Batman had one. Superman had one. Heck, Green Lantern had one! Timm and Dini: make it so.

That would give them a chance to use a lot of the villains we haven't seen on screen before Cheetah, Medusa/Decay, Silver Swam, Circe, Strife, Giganta, Blue Snowman, Hypnota etc and they could have both Wonder Girls in it and appearances from some other superheroes we haven't seen before too.

Why are they the Watch men when there is a female member in the group? Shouldn’t they be Watchpeople or Watchfolks? It is like X Men being called the X Men when there are female heroes in the group. They should call themselves the X People or X Team or X Treme Team.
