Grace Randolph will spit bullshit, and the earth revolves around the sun, and mothers love their children. These are not our words, but those of DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn.
The filmmaker and the YouTube personality have been engaged in a long-running debate over words dating back several years, including the Guardians of the Galaxy director suing her for spouting unfounded Peacemaker rumors that ultimately were off the mark.
When Randolph praised The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special, things seemed to settle down immediately, but things quickly returned to normal shortly afterwards. The latest twist in the tale has seen the internet flooded with speculation that a former Batman might not just be included in The Flash as a last-minute comeback, but could actually be the permanent Caped Crusader in the DC Universe.
Naturally, such a massive can of worms opened Randolph up to as much support as it did criticism, forcing her to tout her comic book credentials to the vicious hounds of Twitter, while always backtracking on her initial observations.
Even if having three versions of Bruce Wayne in the same film sounds like excess, there is no harm in yet another former incumbent of the cape and cowl swinging by The Flash.
Val Kilmer's throat cancer would certainly rule him out, while Christian Bale has never had a fan-baiting guest appearance in anything during his entire career, which is why well-known Batman and Robin hater George Clooney has risen to the top of the pile to deliver what would be a fantastic gag if true.
