The Penguin Trailer Waddles Online
Umbrellas just went on sale at Warner Bros., as HBO Max – which will soon be called “Max” because some idiot thinks HBO has too much brand recognition – has released a trailer for The Penguin, its currently-in-production miniseries about one of Batman’s greatest villains. A spinoff of Matt...
