The greatest enemies in the Marvel and DC cinematic universes

It’s funny, because it’s true. And how did Suicide Squad — fantastic idea, terrible execution, and geez, they could’ve simply copied the much better animated version (Batman: Assualt on Arkham) — get a better rating than Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice?

And oh yeah, was Avengers: Infinity War great! As I said earlier: “It’s The Empire Strikes Back of Avengers movies.”

The photo above was taken by landscape photographer Edward Burtynsky, whose pieces are generally about nature transformed through industry. The photo, titled Breezewood, Pennsylvania, USA. was taken in 2008 and is from a collection titled Oil. He describes the inspiration behind Oil this way:

I began to think about oil itself: as both the source of energy that makes everything possible and as a source of dread, for its ongoing endangerment of our habitat.
