I imagine some will try to monitor the flights coming in and out of Bloomington. Like tonight with the cancellation of the radio show where everyone jumped to some conclusions. If you just thought about it you would realize they were traveling. I stopped looking at the schedule some time ago. Had no idea there was a game tomorrow honestly.

The redo of Aquaman is one of the best in comic book history. Zack Snyder rebirths that character Note: I’m a huge Snyder fan, can’t wait for March 18th and the REAL Justice League release as it should’ve been. 💪🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved BvS (only Ultimate Edition for sure) Wonder Woman was SOLID JL sucked so I’m super excited for Zack’s...4 hours long and only approx 30min of the original JL is a part of it. 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a good thing for sure. BvS the only thing that really held me back from outright liking it is Luther. Just too eccentric. I get what they were going for but just didn’t work for me. I also kinda think they should have had a fight before Batman was ready. Prior to Superman wrecking the bat mobile. It’s little stuff for the most part. I love Wonder Woman the trench scene is one of my all time favorite action scenes in a movie. And I’m not sure if I have ever seen a scene that makes a hero seem more heroic.

Gal is cast amazingly well, acts the part impeccably, has the look, temperament, etc of a Warrior Princess like she should be. They wrote her SO well and she took what they wrote and blew it up. The trench scene is my second favorite to when she drops in to save Batman in BvS. But the trench scene IS epic. Big time. It’s my daughters favorite WW moment. I’m so happy Gal Gadot made that heroine epic because it helps little girls have a dream to be special. And yes...approximately 75% of JL we saw is not Snyder’s. He’s taking no pay to finish this. He’s truly an artist with passion...like him or not. And his crew LOVES him. Seems like a great guy. And wow he hides a crap ton of theological and philosophical meanings in his DCEU 5 movie arch. That’s what I’m most excited about seeing in JL...the continuing of those motifs. Sorry everyone cut me some slack I’m enjoying coming back to this board. :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the whole motif of Superman is well done.

I had a friend say it was weird they picked a spear and I was just “he’s a metaphor for Jesus” and my friend looked at me like he had just discovered his hands could touch each other exactly lol The hidden crosses at the death of Superman in the back ground, horses at FOUR specific times of death in BvS (The Four Horsemen), the OBVIOUS Superman positions floating under the water and falling out of the space craft as Christ, him inthe church with the Jesus Stained glass in The garden of Gethsemane as he is struggling with handing himself over to Zod and earth, walking down the hallway cuffed by guards walking to face “the authorities,” Kal El means “voice of God” in Hebrew, Kal El dies at 33 years of age, his “earthly father” is no longer around when he “begins his ministry” aka he establishes himself as Superman... it goes on and on. Some not so subtle. But I LOVE IT. We’ve had amazing theological and philosophical discussions as a family thru these movies. My 9 year old son and 13 year old daughter have asked tons of questions about Jesus...idc if it’s because they want to see more imagery in these movies. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me that had nothing to do with whether or not we should keep Archie. Never said I would think differently. They should be making it period. But I think the majority of fans, clearly not you, would be even more disappointed in the fact we could of had the team playing an NCAA tournament game in assembly hall. That chance will likely never happen again. How does that not make it a little more sad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess the closer it is the more likely tickets get scalped for the home team even if they do even ticket distribution to both teams. Also as they get further into the tournament you can’t move the location of a big game though it’s at a “neutral” site. But I wouldn’t consider Indy neutral for IU in normal times. I actually find this a strange rule the more I think about it to some degree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole crowd except for a couple of hundred people the rest was IU crowd. I know PU in the mid 80's had to play a 1st round game twice on LSU and Memphis home court. They thought playing on a team's home court in the tournament was an unfair advantage. Even when IU played in Indy in the tournament it was an unfair advantage with the amount of IU fans.

And that makes sense to for back in the day. With the way fans travel now I just wonder if this is still what would happen. Guess it also depends on the size of the school you play. A Kentucky vs MSU in Detroit might be more even of fans in than a MSU vs Loyola Chicago. So that actually helps make sense of it except don’t a lot of teamS usually play in the first round close to home, especially the high seeds? May not be a home game but odds are you would still have the major of fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today most of the sites are more of the big NBA arenas and not in anyone's home court so it doesn't come in play. Use to most of the 1st/2nd round were played in college arenas but the home team not allowed to play there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
