Man of Steel Celebration Event
The first of a series of celebration events to show how much we love Zack Snyder's DCEU.

Organised by Dr. Chris and Fiona, with assistance from Robert Carlin, Nash, Szilvia and Diogo. -
Batman v Superman Celebration Event
This event both celebrated Batman V Superman as a film but also the fans and critics that supported it. In a world where so many criticised the film we love, we thought it was important to celebrate those who stood by us, knowing that we would need their support in the battle ahead to #ReleaseTheSnyderCut. Organised by Dr. Chris and Fiona, with assistance from Robert Carlin, Nash, Szilvia and Diogo. -
ReleaseTheAyerCut Twitter Event
This event was to show that the fight for Zack Snyder's directors cut was not just about fans throwing their dummy out of the pram. It was to show that we have principles. That if we stood by Zack, we must also stand by David Ayer and the injustice done to him and his movie. We continue to support the release of David Ayer's Director's Cut of Suicide Squad. Organised by Dr. Chris and Fiona, with assistance from Robert Carlin, Nash, Szilvia and Diogo. -
Wonder Woman - 5 for 5 Charity Drive

Letters to Hamada
The community needed to show WB that we weren't just twitter bots. Nothing quite has a personal touch like a letter. It was hoped that by everyone sending letters to Walter Hamada the message would get across. It was a monumental task and achievement to have all letters from all over the globe arrive on the same day that took a month of planning. Organised by Dr. Chris and Fiona, with assistance from Ramesh, Brandon Valenza, Nash and Szilvia, and a whole host of translators. -
Phone Call Event Start
An organised and structured phone call campaign was the next step. Limiting it to 3 phone calls per day and only 1 per day to each of Emmerich's, Tsujihara's and Hamada's personal assistants ensured that we showed persistence and pressure, whilst also not being disruptive and not being seen to be abusive. In spite of attempts to block our calls, creative fans found workarounds and got their message through! Organised by Dr. Chris and Fiona, with assistance from Ramesh, Nash and Szilvia. -
Phone Call Event End
The event which was mocked and criticised by some who have claimed to be part of our community was wildly successful, and we wish to thank them all. People from all over the world who gave their voice to our cause. Here is the full schedule and list of participants. -
Charlie's Plane Banner
