The DC Extended Universe needs to die

Five years of abject failure I remember back in 2013 whenMan of Steelcame out. It was meant to be the big return of the Blue Boyscout to theatres after 2006’s groan-worthySuperman Returns.

RedLynx’s hurts-so-good Xbox LIVE Arcade gameTrials HDhas surpassed 1 million sales. At $15 a pop minus whatever Microsoft’s cut is, that’s pretty damn good for a studio comprised of only 35 employees.
