Secrets of The Sire show

Summary: <br> Our Justice League re-shoots discussion turned into a full-on debate: are you Pro or Anti Joss Whedon? Can he save the movie that’s reportedly “Unwatchable” in its current state? Or is he overrated as a writer and director?<br> PLUS: Is Defenders Marvel’s swan song from Netflix with the new Disney streaming service announced?<br> Here’s an excerpt from the Podcast via: <a href="http://wegotthiscovered.com/movies/early-cut-justice-league-deemed-unwatchable-substantial-changes-made/#gallery-8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">http://wegotthiscovered.com/movies/early-cut-justice-league-deemed-unwatchable-substantial-changes-made/#gallery-8</a><br> <br>  <br> <a href="http://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=770506&amp;u=1519549&amp;m=14875&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"></a><br> Poor <a href="http://wegotthiscovered.com/tag/justice-league">Justice League</a>.
