"Don't be a pussy, lazer my fucking tits"
- Stormfront, 2020
WTF did I just watch ?
I love a good epilogue. I always want to know what happens afterward. This whole episode was a really good epilogue. Even though I had some issues with some of the later seasons, I'm going to miss this show. RIP Arrow.
Fitting they called this last episode Loose Ends. Since they cancelled this show, leaving many loose ends.
This is the best episode yet of Titans. I cannot believe they finally pulled off this origin in live action. This is an incredible time to be a fan.
Brandon Routh has a weird cameo where he is looking for his son Gavin. Not really the best performance as a concerned father.
He acts like he is in character from Legends of Tomorrow. Too cheerful and goofy.
Otherwise this was really good.
Aww I actually really liked this episode. It was hella stupid, but that's the legends for ya :') so many great moments at the end, Zari as a kid saving them, Nate's sacrafice, Nate and his Dad, Nate and Zari, Ray and Nora, and that little moment when Gary tried to hug Mona but she wasn't having it lol. Maybe this show ain't so bad after all, it's crazy - but doesn't try to be anything else. Thank you Legends!
THEY'RE IN LOVE AHHHHHHHH GO CRAZY AHHHHHHHHH GO STUPID
How about that ending, huh? I got chills. This moral conflict that Lucifer is facing is brilliantly written and acted.
I have to say, the fact that this season is only 10 episodes works much better in my opinion than the 22 we've gotten used to. There's no room for fillers, no need to drag out the Eve drama for 17 episodes straight, which makes for a much better, concise storytelling.
I never expected Lucifer to tackle police brutality and racism, but I think they handled it very well. It's heartbreaking to see Amenadiel go from loving humanity to not wanting to raise his son on Earth anymore.
This just doesn't work...at all...not even a little...didn't laugh once.
that ending was a masterpiece. a true work of art
Michelle Gomez (Miss Wardell) has been killing it. I expected no less from Missy.
I hope this show gets renewed for a few seasons. It'll be cool seeing John rising through the ranks, eventually to becoming a detective, and all the struggles he encounters. It better happen.
I don't know what these others are on about, this is in no way a finale. It's an alternate timeline single episode, where you get fun, or at most some perspective, for us, the viewers, and in some cases at most a single character.
Unlike 3x25, this episode is fleshed out and well edited, it is fun and interesting. Don't get me wrong, the overal story as well as the focus on Ella in 3x25 was good, just somewhat poorly executed, I assume due to apparent reasons.
In any case, here to a slim chance of a proper s4.
Me, circa a week ago: Okay, I have to prepare myself. This episode is titled "The End", the ratings are low, there's no way we're getting another season. This show's had a good run. I'll always love it, but it's 100% getting canceled.
Agents of SHIELD, crashing through the window and punching me in the face: YOU FOOL. YOU ABSOLUTE BUFFOON. YOU GODDAMN COWARD.
Whoever in Marvel fought so hard to get us season 6, I am forever in your debt (even though we won't see those guys again until summer 2019, but that's still better than nothing) because WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK WAS THAT?
I don't remember the last time I cried during an episode of any show. But what happened with Fitz was so completely unexpected that I froze in shock, and then, when I saw Jemma's smile slowly fade as the realization set in, I broke down in tears. Sure, one could argue that his struggle with the darkness inside of him this season was a bit of a foreshadowing, but I didn't see his death coming at all. I could barely watch the rest of the episode because everything was blurry. I couldn't believe it. FitzSimmons have spent 5 seasons getting ripped apart over and over again, and now that they've finally gotten married, Fitz dies. I had the most horrible, nauseating feeling in my stomach. The only thing I could think about was "They better bring him back or so help me God, I will burn Marvel Television to the ground". When they mentioned the other version of Fitz floating in space, I felt like the biggest weight was lifted off my shoulders. It's going to be fine. My babies are going to be fine.
Coulson going to Tahiti is a nice full circle kind of thing for him. I know they'll probably find a way to keep him alive anyway, but I enjoyed that moment.
Daisy and Talbot's fight was so damn good. When she launched herself at him, I felt like I was watching a proper Marvel movie. I'll never understand why this show doesn't get the respect and the recognition it deserves. It's a goddamn gem in every way and every Marvel fan should watch it.
Oh, and I saw some people getting upset about the fact that half of the team didn't vanish at the end there, but personally I think it makes sense not to do that. Season 6 is going to air in the summer of 2019, after the release of the next Avengers movie, in which, let's face it, they're going to use the Time Stone or whatever to bring everyone back. So on the show we'd have half our characters vanish and then next year they'd just be there again as if nothing happened, without explanation. I'm glad they didn't do it.
So, I guess see y'all in a year when season 6 starts! Even though I have no idea how I'm supposed to wait that long!
You better believe that I spent the last 15 minutes of this episode screaming internally. You know that meme with a cartoon dog sitting inside a burning room, saying "This is fine"? That's me right now.
I'm just... speechless. I don't know how to process everything that's happened. I can't even name all the emotions that I'm experiencing at the moment. A part of me wants to cry, another wants to laugh, but not in a good way - more in the awkward, panicked way, like when something bad happens and you react in the most inappropriate manner imaginable.
Let's start with the most obvious thing, the one that I've talked about quite a few times in the past: Iain de Caestecker and Elizabeth Henstridge's acting. Those two are like goddamn magical unicorns blessed with so much talent. Separately, they're utterly magnificent and deserve all the awards (which they'll never get because there is no justice in this world). But when you put them together, it's honestly one of the most powerful things I've ever seen. It's a nuclear reaction, a supernova, galaxies crashing together. It takes my breath away. Remember when FitzSimmons were supposed to be the comic relief in season 1? That definitely didn't go according to plan. Those two are the beating heart and the soul of this show. I'm not exaggerating when I say that one of the main reasons why I want Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to go on forever is because I can't get enough of the magic that Elizabeth and Iain create whenever they're on screen together. When I watch them, I understand what it means that something is greater than the sum of its parts. The showrunners truly hit the jackpot of the millenium with those two. They elevate the quality of the show with their brilliance. In their hands, even the weakest of scenes and the corniest of dialogues turn into something special, and great moments become mindblowingly epic.
Fitz and The Doctor's interactions left me with my jaw on the floor. Especially that tiny moment when The Doctor mocked Fitz's stuttering (by the way, that's some excellent continuity right there, Fitz's aphasia coming back and getting worse when he's very stressed or upset). It made the big reveal all the more shocking and heartbreaking for me. I didn't see that coming at all, and I swear my soul left my body for a second when I realized what was going on. I'm almost in physical pain just thinking about it. I have no idea how Fitz is going to come back from this. I have no idea how he can ever patch things up with Daisy. I can't believe the writers did this to me. Can I sue them for causing me emotional distress?
Jemma finding out that Deke is her and Fitz's grandson was so lovely and touching. I always cry when Elizabeth cries, so naturally, I turned into a sobbing mess. And of course she threw up at the end there, and we know that in TV world women only ever puke for one of two reasons:
They've had too much too drink (alternatively, they took drugs - I'm looking at you, Jessica Jones).
They're pregnant.
Since Jemma wasn't knocking back shots or snorting cocaine in this episode, I think it's safe to say that there's a lil' British science bun in the oven. Normally, I'd be fucking ecstatic about this, but I think this episode has killed my ability to feel happiness, at least for the time being.
I guess some other stuff happened in the episode, the Russian dude from last season is back, Hale is working with the Kree or something, Hydra's back (could we perhaps stop beating that dead horse already?), but to be honest, I currently don't have the emotional capacity to give a fuck about any of it. I need to lie down on the floor, curl up into a ball and stay there for a while.
See y'all next week for more suffering!
The showrunners, probably: Okay, guys, this is our big season finale. We're sparing no expense. We need it to be epic. There's going to be a huge fight between Mallus and a perfect being of pure light that the Legends are going to create using their Totems. Any ideas as to how it's going to go down?
A writer: Oh, I don't know, how about A GIANT FUCKING BEEBO KILLING MALLUS WITH THE POWER OF A CUDDLE?
The showrunners, losing their goddamn minds, tears of joy streaming down their faces: Mark, you are a fucking genius.
Basically, whenever I think that we've reached maximum craziness on this show, they go ahead and set the bar even higher. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. I spent the entire final showdown in a fetal position, gasping for air. My stomach still hurts. I fucking love LoT so much. Who would've thought back in season 1 that it would become the most entertaining Arrowverse show, huh? Certainly not this gal! And I have to say, I've never been happier to be proven wrong. These idiots have stolen my heart. I simply adore each and every one of them. The new additions this season, Zari (or, as I like to call her, The Actual Love Of My Life) and Wally (The Flash didn't deserve you, sweetie, but don't worry, LoT is going to treat you right) have fit in seamlessly, just like Nate and Amaya did last season. What a bunch of losers. I would die for them. I can't keep a smile off my face when I'm thinking about them. They deserve an Emmy for Best Ensemble.
Sara Lance is the queen of everything. She's easily one of my favorite characters ever. Her big speech was amazing. I couldn't stop grinning. I would follow her into any battle.
I got sad about Amaya, but Maisie is still set to be a series regular next season, so I guess we don't have to say goodbye to this lovely character just yet. I'm not sure about Rip though. Could he really be dead this time? I... don't know how I feel about this. On one hand, yup, he can fuck right off, but on the other, he did kind of sacrifice himself to help the team, so it feels wrong to trash talk him?
Damien Dahrk sacrificing himself for his daughter made me emotional. He did some truly horrible things, but he managed not to be selfish in the end. Nora's pain was palpable. I've grown very attached to her character, I hope she'll return at some point in the future.
Jax! He's married, and he has a beautiful baby girl named Martina! I'm not crying, you're crying. I was so happy to see him. Helen of Troy, Good Kuasa and Jonah Hex were fun additions as well.
Jes Macallan is coming back next season, which means the Avalance ship is still sailing! Sara doesn't have a great track record with romantic relationships, so I'm delighted that this one is going to stick for at least a little longer. She deserves some happiness.
With Constantine joing the cast full time next season, things are bound to get even more insane. I can't tell you how excited I am. I do kind of feel bad for the Legends, though. They got like what, 2 minutes of peace and quiet? No rest for the wicked, I guess.
Season 4, here we come!
"I have faith"
Those three words alone hit me right where it hurts. They pierced my soul. I mean it, 13 seasons in and SPN keeps impressing me in ways I didn't think it was possible. That line being uttered by Dean was something I never thought he'd say.
You know what was the strangest thing? That this didn't come from Sam (or even Cas) who's always been the hopeful one. It came from Dean a guy who has refused to believe over and over again despite everything he's seen; a guy who back in season 1 refused to believe in anything except from the two of them; a guy who in season 4, after meeting an actual angel and being saved by him still refused to believe; a guy who in season 11 after meeting God Himself and talking to him in one of the most emotional, heartbreaking and moving scenes I remember, still refused to believe that God had faith in humanity. Yet, that same guy has faith now. There's nothing more to say. Just wow.
SPN can have me in stitches in one scene and had me tearing up in another. The feels. That ending scene was just beautiful. It reminded me of the one in last season's "The Memory Remains" when they carved their initials in the table. These kind of scenes make me really emotional and give me the feeling that I'm not prepared for this show to end.
"I mean, you know. You ever feel like we're doing nothing but playing defense? You know, bouncing from one apocalypse to the next? I'm not saying we don't do good. But no matter how many people we save, there will be more people that need saving. No matter how many monsters we kill... There's always gonna be another one around the corner"
I'm digging this role reversal. Sam's always been the hopeful one, yet losing Jack and realizing that Mary is trapped in Apocalypse World and that every plan they come up with ends up backfiring is destroying him. He really needs some brotherly therapy or something as simple as a win. Dean got his win with Cas being back and now Sam needs his own. I love that Dean is now the one with faith when he's always been the non-believer and the skeptical one in the family. His talk with Padre Lucca was beautiful and it had an effect on him.
I didn't have high hopes for this episode. If only because of the premise of the episode. Those standalone episodes are normally Monster of the Week ones and I love them. However, this one was different. There were so many things going on at the same time that it got a bit confusing to me. I blame sleep deprivation for it.
However, I ended up liking the episode a lot. It was different than the rest and that was because of its unique style. The mob, religion, stolen relics, Italian gangsters and that music. The music alone carried the episode, along with the lighting and the camera shots. Once again, kudos to Amanda Tapping. What a well-directed episode.
The dialogue was fluid, character interactions were great, everything about Father Lucca was amazing and the rest of the characters were the right fit for the tome of the episode. That was a great homage to the noir movies. The music was on point, adding to the episode the atmosphere needed.
Dean: "Look at you. You're like a Boy
Scout. You're always prepared"
Sam : "Yeah. You're like a... Yeah? I don't
know what you're like"
Dean: "Yeah. Thanks"
Dean: "Okay, I'm just saying, you're taking
a lot of shots to the head lately. I
mean, I know that Disney Princess
hair gives you some padding, but..."
Those two had me in stitches this episode. I was glad Dean mentioned Sam's continuous concussions. Let episode he was knocked down by Donatello (twice), and tonight again. Sam should think about wearing a helmet regardless of his Disney Princess hair, lol. I've lost count of how many times he's been knocked out by being hit on the head.
Speaking of funny dialogues, Dean talking about what he'd do if someone sells his baby had me rolling on the floor. What made it even funnier was his dead serious expression. "Murder. I'd murder 'em all. There'll be torture first. There'll be, like, a lot of torture, and then there'd...it would end up with death. If I can't have her, nobody can". I'm surprised he didn't kill the thug who drove the Impala immediately there, to be honest. By the way, seeing Dean in the backseat of the Impala was weird.
Padre Lucca! Everything about him was just perfect. He was so damn adorable. It was way too obvious that he was going to be "The Most Holy Man", if only because the "Saint Ignatius" stuff seemed pretty made-up. By the way, I'm guessing Supernatural is where Killgore went after The Flash, lol. I enjoyed the Padre's character and backstory. He felt so pure and down-to-earth. I liked how he was a man of faith, but when it comes to God, he knows what's up. He even pointed it out in his conversation with Dean: "I didn't mean that God would reach down and protect us. Of course that's not going to happen. But I believe that all good things are God's things. And what your brother's doing, it's a good thing".
Something about the way he talked about changing the world regardless of how screwed up it is filled my heart with warm feelings. "Guys, the world will never be perfect, but if good men do good things, it can be better". Lovely.
So one down, three to go. I want to see the adventures of Cas dodging bullets in Syria while trying to find the fruit from the Tree of Life. I still remember how easy it was for Crowley to get a hold of the forbidden fruit back in season 10. Things were easier when Crowley was around.
One scene that I particularly enjoyed more than the rest was that gunfight with that holy music as background. That scene was beautiful.
Tonight's was a weird episode. I couldn't get more clichéd but I liked it more than I expected. Sure it won't suit everyone's taste, but it was an otherwise fun episode with great brother scenes.
And next episode is THE episode. I'm so excited about ScoobyNatural. It socks that we have to wait two weeks for it but I think it'll be worth it. It seems a very Trickstery episode and I can't wait for it.
Having David Tennant back as Kilgrave was a blast! Showed what this season is lacking, a true villain.
We meat again, Channel Zero. ;-)
Great opening! Reminiscent of so many other giants in the sci-fi realm! Cannot wait to push play for the rest of the series
That coded chat! LOL
Overall, a good mix between how depressive things have been and the crazy that's about to be unleashed.
This episode just confirms to me that AoS is the best of the current superhero/comic shows.
My beloved Agents are finally back! It's been so long. I've missed them. And what a rollercoaster of a premiere this was! Including, but not limited to: Agents in space, discount Star Lord, Demodogs (does that make Daisy Eleven?), Jemma upping her sass to critical levels ("I figured it out using magic"), the Monolith's prettier sister, time travel (Doctor Who theme plays in the background), angry smol May walking off a literal hole in her leg, and lighting so bad that I had to lower the blinds in all the windows in my room just to be able to (barely) see what's going on. Seriously, at this point AoS' lighting department consists of one dude with a flashlight and two glowsticks. I guess that's the price we have to pay for all the insane special effects. They probably blew their whole budget on those. Still a great episode though!
JOHN CONSTANTINE!!. HOLY FUCKING WHAT? I WAS JUMPING. I FUCKING LOVE THIS SHOW
no, no, no, no, no, no, no! no no no no, no no no no no
I love kickass ladies more than anything, so I liked this episode. I do think the "#feminism" thing was kind of cringeworthy though. Like, girls teaming up and kicking ass was literally the focus of this episode, you don't have to tell us that it's feminist. We know. I'm a feminist myself and I'm 100% here for female empowerment, but the way they tried to bring attention to it every 5 seconds was grating. If you keep making a big deal out of powerful and capable women, it will never be seen as something normal and common (which, you know, it is). Instead, it will feel gimmick-y. Fortunately, this was probably a one-time thing and Caitlin and Iris will go back to being casual badasses in the next episode.
My favorite part was that Caitlin and Iris had so many scenes together. Seriously, I've been waiting for so long for their friendship to develop into something more than just work colleagues. This is the brOTP that we deserve.
Drunk Barry was so hilarious. My sweet boy, crying over Jack and Rose. But he's a scientist, he should know that just because the door was big enough for the two of them, it doesn't mean that it could hold both of them. There's this thing called buoyancy, you know. They totally could've taken turns though.
Also, did Felicity really say "The Incredible Hulk"? Are they allowed to name-drop Marvel heroes?
First of all, I am THRILLED to have Amy Acker back on my screen in a leading role. To be honest, I thought that playing a suburban mother of two would be kind of a downgrade for her after what she got to do during her run as Root on Person of Interest, but Caitlin Strucker is a character who experiences tremendous emotional turmoil right from the first episode and Amy absolutely nails it. Not that I ever had any doubts about her performance, she's knocked every role she's ever played out of the park, so I was sure this wouldn't be any different. So yeah, even if this show was terrible, I'd still watch it just for her. But lucky for me, it's not terrible at all. The story is interesting and you root for the characters pretty much from the get-go. The special effects are impressive for a TV show as well. This pilot did everything it was supposed to: established the overarching plot and introduced our heroes and villains, but at the same time it didn't drag at all and kept things pretty fast-paced and intense. The cast includes a lot of talented actors who all do a great job. The kids are a bit awkward, but that's usually the case with child actors and they'll probably improve with time. Overall, if the show keeps this up, it should be a big success and I'm excited to see where it'll go in the future.
for me it looks like this Beth is actually a clone and Rick haven't killed her because the real Beth must continue her adventures
