I agree there. Despite being a horrible person off screen, Ezra Miller can actually act with good material, We Need to Talk About Kevin, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower are proof of that.
I think as you alluded to, the bigger problem was that Snyder’s take on Barry Allen was ill-conceived from the beginning. Ezra may have been a good fit for Snyder’s vision for the character but his vision was Barry Allen in name only.
I find it very amusing that the CW managed to do the character so much better for nine years and with a fraction of the resources.
I’ve said this elsewhere but I expect the suit will be dropped after the election because he doesn’t have a leg to stand on. This is simply a desperate attempt at damage control as his campaign continues to tank.
Everyone remotely competent quit the Monday following CNN’s story about Robinson’s past internet activities came out. His campaign manager is now Jack Burkman, who you might know as Jacob Wohl’s fellow idiot and long-time partner in crime. The two of them have made multiple comically inept attempts to frame public figures for fictitious sexual assaults, including in October 2018 against U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller, in April 2019 against 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg, and in April 2020 against White House Coronavirus Task Force member Anthony Fauci.
So it’s not surprising he’s convinced Robinson to file a frivolous lawsuit against CNN.
