Struggling DCU

Hey DC you need to give your head a shake. For real, about the big screen at least. I have heard that some of the television series are good. Like Arrow, Flash and Titans.

So for fun I am going to yap / review about the few things (only) on TV or Big screen that nerds have brought to us!
