Why 'Justice League' Star Joe Morton Thinks Fans Should Have More of a Say

The actor reflects on Zack Snyder restoring his storyline as Dr. Silas Stone, and weighs in on the power of fan campaigns: "It’s kind of like voting."

Now that Zack Snyder’s Justice League has finally been released, viewers are understanding exactly what Snyder meant when he called Cyborg’s (Ray Fisher) storyline “the heart” of his movie. Of course, an integral component of Cyborg’s arc involves Joe Morton’s Dr. Silas Stone, who was first introduced in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. After a devastating car accident took the life of his wife, Dr. Elinore Stone (Karen Bryson), Morton’s character channeled the incalculable power of an alien technology to prevent his son Victor from suffering the same fate. In doing so, he created an advanced human cyborg with a laundry list of superpowers, as well as the ability to manipulate technology at will.

Priorities

So, I just heard a news report in which Governor Newsom says that California has a crisis with affordable housing and homelessness. Am I wrong to feel that maybe we should put limits on unbridled illegal immigration, sanctuary cities, and pretending that multiple caravans with upwards of 15,000 migrants soon to arrive at our border is not a crisis? Maybe we can all agree there should be limits, at least until we get our domestic s#it together!

A Turning Point

Why do many immigrants escape tyrannical governments, appreciate our quality of life, and our freedoms? But, people born in this country often seem to not appreciate the vast opportunities and appreciate our freedoms and are striving so hard to leap into the democratic/socialist idealist/utopian and over-controlled big government engineered by others. Do we really believe that those in Washington know more about what's best for the country than we do? They're supposed to represent us, not engineer a massive government to oversee our every action. Unless that's the government we want.
