For me this was a largely academic exercise of killing time at work. No judgment or anything personal was intended, and I'm sorry it went there.
As an aside: just because I don't know what you're going through, that doesn't mean I don't care. I see what you've been saying and I think it's great that you want to make a positive difference in the lives of those around you.
Whatever your challenges are, I'm available if you want to just bounce ideas or what-not off of in 'public' or in PMs because I don't believe anyone's challenges are meant to be faced alone. And I don't think I'm the only person here who'd be willing to lend a listening ear.

Thanks for sharing, SI. I have a better understanding of what you are going through and I would have similar frustrations if I were in your shoes. For what it's worth, it sounds to me like you guys are on the right track in accommodating all the different needs and navigating this together. Like any relationship, communication is key.
I read The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time some years back, and it was pretty eye opening to the experiences of those with Asperger's (it's a mystery novel told in the first-person point of view of a kid with Asperger's who is trying to solve the murder of his neighbour's dog).
I very much look forward to your take on Wonder Woman 2, if it ever comes out.

Nik the Trik said:To be fair I think making a cohesive, focused film about 5 or 6 superheroes who all want screen time and a purpose is always an uphill battle(I think the only reason Marvel made it work is because everyone involved had been in another movie beforehand). When you throw in the Directing change it makes it near impossible. When you also throw in that neither Whedon nor Snyder are particularly good directors I don't really think there was ever a ton of hope for a critical darling.
herman said:This film was designed to be a franchise launch pad (well, second one), rather than an actual film. It sounds like it has the same build as Suicide Squad, which was really not good.
Nik the Trik said:I don't think there's anything nobler about the design of any other superhero movie for the most part. They all seem to be made with the sequels and the various merchandising tie-ins in mind. Marvel just recognizes that the movies they're making should primarily be fun.

Yeah. Marvel has definitely realized they're making "popcorn movies," not serious films. They make movies people legitimately want to watch multiple time. DC makes three hour long projections of grim-dark, with the occasional Wonder Woman or Dark Knight thrown in.
