HANDS DOWN TO THE SASSIER TRIO ON TELEVISION: CAPTAIN COLD, HEATWAVE AND WHITE CANARY.
All of this chaos could have been avoided if Thea killed a scumbag every once in a while
Good episode!!! I enjoyed itvery much. The fights were awesome and very well coordinated. I enjoyed all of them pretty much. Besides,Laurel and Quentin's runaway in just one shot was amazing. I loved it. I just Wonder wth is Damien doing with the underground corn and why on Earth does his wife have to be mayor. Plus, I don't like Ruve. She is kind of annoying, anyway.
And that ending was like WTH!?!? So now Damien wants his daughter to play dates? Besides, there's something I don't really get. Like come on, do you really believe that William, a boy we have just seen for a few minutes is the moat important person in Oliver's life?I don'tbuy it. I also enjoyed Thea's reaction to discovering Ollie had a son. And Diggle's thingamajig to blow hammers away. It was kind of awesome. And Lyla, who now is running ARGUS, that's why she and Dig will be in the flash episode helping him to defeat King Shark. I'm looking forward to it. Also to see next week's episode of Arrow with Vixen. I can't wait. The minute I watched the end of this episode I looked for next week's promo. I have to confess I like Dahrk's character. Very funny. You should check the promo.
I also Wonder what the hell wants Reiter. It's beginning to Look quite strangr, even though I don't get the point of the flashbacks.
Anyway, good episode with a different way of killing. Now demolitions. I didn't see that coming. Good fight scenes, runaways, good connection Between Quentim/Donna and Ollie/Felicity. And that present. Curtis' present was so lovely. Let's see how it works and Felicity's reaction to knowing that Ollie has a son.
Can't wait to next week!! see you then Boys
So many resurrections and a finalized death is not only your female lead, but THE Black Canary. Never in a million years did I think this would happen. I seriously hope the seizure was faked. Laurel Lance deserves better, and so do we; she'll be missed.
Giant robots fighting each other? Sign me the fuck up.
Yet can't help but feel annoyed about Kendra choosing a possibility to un-brainwash one of the numerous reincarnations of the man she barely knows and who's not even from her timeline over millions of other people and the future of their entire planet. Come oooon.
So why didn't Snart just freeze tje plunger in position? Too many martyrs spoil the episode.
"i am so glad you're back... because we're about to die"
i love cisco and iris' dynamic, so glad we got to see them together so much in this episode. they're really funny together!
Wait, Mike Ross escaped from prison, changed his name and became a superhero of the JSA??!! Well, if he couldn't be a lawyer...
My name ia Hunter Zolomon and I am the highest Man Alive. When I was a child I saw my father shooting my mother. My father went to prison for her murder. Then I went to an orphanage because nobody wanted me. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside World I am an ordinary hero whose name is Jay Garrick, but in secret I kill time remnants to mentally confuse Others and find speedsters like me. One day, I'll find Barry Allen and I'll race him. I am Zoom
Melissa Benoist is just unbelievable. It seems that whatever the writers throw at her, she pulls it off with ease.
This show has definitely improved since the pilot and this episode was great. Right now, Supergirl is probably my favorite superhero TV show, next to The Flash and Agents of SHIELD, mostly because of the characters and some great character dynamics. Kara/Alex, Alex/J'onn and Kara/Cat are all wonderful relationships and there were some nice emotional scenes in this episode for each one of them. Kara's speech at the end of the episode was super touching and beautiful.
The only thing I really dislike about this show is the awkward trainwreck of a relationship between Kara and James. No matter what the writers do to convince me that these two are crazy in love with each other, there's just nothing there. No spark, no chemistry, no romantic tension, no genuine affection. Even their friendship seems forced. Maybe it's because James is the most boring character on the show. He's dull, he has zero personality and the fact that he's being reduced to a love interest doesn't help him at all. Sometimes I think that he could be replaced by a lifeless piece of wood and I honestly wouldn't notice. Every other character brings something to the table. James is just... there.
-1 for forcing Kara/James down my throat for the thousandth time. I could have easily given this episode a perfect ten because I loved seeing Supergirl and The Flash working together to save National City. Plus seeing Silver Banshee AND Livewire working together, I was in heaven. That was until Barry had to start shipping them too. Why can't writers realize that a superhero, especially a FEMALE, can still be a hero without having to have a significant other? I honestly hope Kara's kiss kills him that's how much I hate this pairing. Of course it won't and it'll make Kara realize she loves James even more than ever before. GAG ME WITH A SPOON!
My two favorite TV superheroes teaming up and kicking ass? What's not to love?
I really enjoyed Kara and Barry's interactions. They work well together and have easy, natural chemistry that makes them delightful to watch. Also, they are ridiculously adorable and funny. I couldn't help but grin like a maniac the whole episode.
Siobhan and Leslie were just big enough of a threat to make the action scenes interesing. Never mind that it apparently took Siobhan about 2 seconds to master her new abilities of which she'd been unaware all her life. Her makeup and hair were pretty ridiculous, but they were probably based on her comic book look, so I won't complain.
Cat Grant is flawless. I feel like I'm repeating myself, but she is just amazing. Her one-liners are hilarious ("You look like the attractive, yet non-threatening, racially diverse cast of a CW show"). It was nice to see her more vulnerable, motherly side during the park scene. And at this point I'm 99.9% certain that she knows about Kara. If she doesn't, the writers are just insulting her intelligence.
Kara earning the city's forgiveness was actually quite touching, even though it was a pretty cheesy moment. Still, I can handle some cheesiness as long as this golden retriever of a person is happy.
Can James just go away, please? Or, like, I don't know, die? Sacrifice himself Eddie-style in the season finale? I honestly don't care. Just make him disappear. He's useless, his only purpose this episode was to be jealous of Barry, he can't even move his face. Why can't Kara just be single? And if they really insist on putting her in a romantic relatioship, there are a billion better options than goddamn James. Get your shit together, writers. This episode would've been a perfect 10 for me had it not been for that awful forced romance. At least stop pretending that they have chemistry. Seriously, even if they had any, how could Barry possibly have noticed it? He spent like 10 seconds with James. I don't think I've ever been so frustrated with a pairing.
Two words: Chris Wood! Thank you for blessing this TV series with your presence.
Hmmm. It is an OK movie. It is tense for sure, but in terms of what actually happens there isn't much let's be honest. As there really is no beginning and no end, it feels like a tv series episode in my opinion. There are also some questionable choices from the characters, one in particular, that do not make sense or have any logic. I'd give it a 5 out of 10, sorry.
Good tension set pieces, if a little repetative as a formula. Totally illogical. Predicatable.
Parents of the year right here.
"My name is Quentin Lance. After five years drinking just whisky, I started a job with only one goal: to prevent Oliver Queen from killing my daughters. Today, I fight that war in two fronts. By day, I oversleep and work as deputy mayor. But by night, I am someone else. I am something else. I am Prometheus"
damn prometheus really a dramatic ass bitch..... just text oliver.. leave him a note or something smh no one needs words written in fire
So glad Ray found some dwarf star. Three episodes of whaaa! I don't have a suit was too much.
What a load of crap. The acting was dreadful. Give this a wide berth if possible. Story line was rubbish too. Total thumbs down for me.
Normally when comenting on shows or movies like this you need to preface it with
"given that this is a horror flick, ..." For this episode, that qualification is
unnecessary. It stands completely on its own. This isn't just a good hour of
scary entertainment, it's one of the best hours of television I've watched this
year.
The episode doesn't just completely recontextualise a story arch we've seen
before and changes the view we have on a character, but paints a really deep and
complex picture of a man dealing with grief and addiction. The horror elements
serve a greater purpose than just spooking the audience. They are a fundamental
part of our character's journey and affort us with a way to understand his inner
daemons in a very real way.
All of this coupled with the brilliant smooth and deliberate camera work that
keeps you at the edge of seat throughout makes this one of the most affecting
episodes of television I've seen this year.
Loved how it was real life them in the reflexion on the TV. That was a nice touch.
[8.1/10] It’s funny the things you notice on rewatch, like a subtle theme in this one of the members of the group looking for affection and fulfillment in other places and coming back to their friendship when they realize it’s what they really want.
That’s most adorable and most obvious in the Troy/Abed story. Their joint efforts to woo the librarian are, as she herself puts it, the cutest thing to ever happen to her, and there’s that combination between sweet and weird in their courtship efforts that’s the foundation of the Troy/Abed relationship. Troy bailing on the librarian when she says Abed’s weird, only to end in a hug with his best friend, is a nice note to close on.
The Britta/Annie story is fun in that regard too. There’s a solid comic setup in Britta and Page both thinking the other’s a lesbian and having the smug pride of being a progressive straight person as the only reason each has befriended the other. But for all the satire of that (and the gleeful schadenfreude of Britta and her ersatz counterpart being secretly judged by Annie and her ersatz counterpart), there’s also heart when Britta realizes that far from the “brave admiration” she thinks she wants for her friendship choices, she’s more touched by Annie’s support, which ends in just as nice of a hug as Troy and Abed.
Then there’s Jeff. His “this is a fight” moment with the group, which somehow gets cross-pollinated with an amusing riff the Barenaked Ladies, is silly but archly so, with that comic tone that Community mastered. His hosting Prof. Duncan, and eventually Chang, and eventually a whole party gets a little loony, especially when it turns into an elaborate scheme from Chang to squat there.
But I like the aftermath, where Jeff is the life of a party, but realizes he misses his friends. The fact that they can get by without him, and the realization that being their friend is a blessing, something he wants, not an obligation, is that extra depth that set this show apart. Naturally, he tries to impart some encouragement to Pierce, who has been chatting with a pain pill-encouraging hallucination of Andy Dick. Okay, this show is weird too. There’s a definite dark goofball quality to Pierce’s psyche convincing himself to keep taking pills, that goes just plain dark when Pierce is laid out on a park bench.
It’s the characteristic glimmer of something sad and serious in the midst of all the heart and frivolity. But that just makes this episode more complex and interesting and rich. Overall, a nice off kilter holiday episode that has a sideways and somewhat fractured but still affecting moral behind it.
I'm so in love with all of the three Snicket siblings
Walter is slowly slipping into his Heisenberg persona in his personal life. It's only a matter of time before he slips a little too much. He needs to go back to being Heisenberg, selling meth, so he can be all badass out there instead of among his family. Taking the ending of the episode into consideration, Walter's whole plan of being done with his other life isn't working out too well. I wonder if those two guys, or at least the boss or leader, whatever you'd call him, realized he's Heisenberg since he told them to stay out of his territory. Or maybe they were just scared.
I've finally gotten around to watching this show and needless to say, I loved it. I don't tend to pick favorites with anything and while I thoroughly enjoyed this show, I'm a little baffled how so many people are calling this the greatest show of all time. It has great cinematography, in-depth meaning to the episode names, foreshadowing or symbolism in unique ways, but shouldn't how much you enjoy the show also play a factor in whether or not it's the 'greatest show of all time'? Just because a majority calls something the best of its category doesn't make it the best. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the show. I just think that even if a show is bad to a majority's standards, there's still someone out there who considers that show the greatest show of all time. It doesn't matter if more people think a show is the greatest show of all time, it doesn't automatically make it true. Everyone has different tastes. Just like how there's also a majority who don't like or hate this show and aren't a fan of it, and that's completely fine. I liked this show even though it was pretty slow multiple times, but I wouldn't consider it the greatest show of all time. Everyone has their own 'greatest show of all time.' This show just isn't mine.
I'm at season one, binged watched almost all the season in one sitting. I find it very amusing
I still can't believe that Katie McGrath is real and beautiful and she wore a leather dress and a pantsuit and looking at chessboard like some evil villain master mind. Little Lena and Lex are cute, I can't. And you can't take away the headcanon that Lena was not a Luthor by blood from my hands, thank you very much.
-But you are like... I mean, you're really...
-Human?
-I was going to say "hot", but yeah! That too!
"Waiting for an old friend".
Damn you Three-Eyed Raven!
