Valeyard posted:Didn't (in the new one anyway) the suit "detect danger" and drop the mask down to protect his face I don't remember the faceplate in the new version really functioning any different than the old version, it's just plot protection really. I want to say that the original Robocop, that was just his face stapled onto a cyborg head, but I'm probably misremembering and / or making that up.

Accretionist posted:Someone actually posted about this happening in the China.jpg thread: Another similar anecdote, I used to work for a multinational container port company and overheard one of the safety guys saying their Indian ports have tons of workplace deaths and it's horrifying, but their Chinese ports have never once reported a death ever. That is even more chilling because you know that means they're just covering it up.

And let's not sell s1 short. Like the last 8 episodes or so were really good. More than "a couple." SHIELD is solid television.

I'm not going to wade through 12 hours or whatever of poo poo television at the beginning for it to maybe get better. It's the same sunk cost fallacy people who try to defend the awful Final Fantasy 13 use. If your beginning is poo poo, you're poo poo.

Not necessarily true. There are quite a few TV shows that have a shitastic first season.

Arrow had a decent start. AoS didn't even hold me through the pilot. And FF13, I asked some goons when the tutorial areas were supposed to end and they were like, "Idiot, that's chapter 3," and I haven't played it since.

Arrow also got better pretty quickly. Episode 9 was excellent, and everything from 11 on was very good.

ashez2ashes posted:You joke, but Waller lying to them and telling them it was a dangerous virus when it was really a sample of the Lazarus pit water is very much something she would do. I'd be pretty happy with that twist, actually. It'd be the cherry on the "You hosed up my op so I'm going to get you killed or turn you into a monster." sundae

My money is still on Waller training Oliver to be some kinda crazy loving vigilante. If she just wanted a spy, there are better options. Its Amanda Waller, the only DCU character who can out-chess Batman. Also, I LIKED season 1 of Arrow even before it started really clicking. The action scenes are solid from the get-go, Felicity shows up early, Amell is more than strong enough to carry a show... like, I just don't think Arrow was ever a bad show. Except for the episode that turned Gaius Baltar into a stun baton mook.

Don't forget that Arrow's pilot gave us the most ridiculous (and not necessarily in a good way) parkour gif in existence.

Narcissus1916 posted:My money is still on Waller training Oliver to be some kinda crazy loving vigilante. If she just wanted a spy, there are better options. The most rational explanation for her interest in Ollie, sadly, isn't the one we're being given...which is that it'd probably be advantageous for Waller to have a young and mold-able figurehead for ARGUS, who also has some credibility with wealthy and powerful people. Ollie is a celebrity playboy who's the son of an industrialist billionaire. Prior to the island, his skills were partying hard and having connections. He shouldn't be working as some sort of black ops spook, he should be attending dinners with defense contractors. But that involves way less arrow-based torture, so... ATOM suit looks super great. I'm kind of surprised by that. Well done, art design team.

Every time I watch some real parkour / free running video, I can't help but think that for every one of those crazy stunts they pull off, there are several dozen guys sitting in the hospital waiting to get their nutsack stitched back on.

from another forum "I can't find anything good to say about Brandon Routh...Even when he played Superman/Clark Kent, back in 2006 He's always been incredibly monotonous, expressionless and generally unenthusiastic in his performances. The sooner he's off Arrow, the better. ...Incidentally, I felt the same way when he was a villain on Chuck." People are weird. Black Dynamite vs Maseo "My ninja!"
