In the Arrowverse, it is important to hide things from the people you love the most, but be ok with letting everyone else know or figure out your deep dark secrets.

When you're trapped in an alternate dimension you do what you have to in order to gain the locals' trust.

Total outside perspective: I tried to watch the Supergirl/Flash crossover episode, having not seen any of Supergirl or The Flash. I ended up skipping through it after a while because jesus was there a bunch of boring interpersonal drama in between the cool bits. I mean, I didn't know any of the characters so I wasn't going to be invested in them anyway, but I can't imagine any scenario where I'd be into those scenes as written.

Ben Edlund wrote the best comedy Supernatural episodes, maybe they just mean the jokes will be darker rather than it will be less funny.

The grounded part worries me. Does it mean there won't be a guy with a chair for a face?

No but he can have a chair carved into his face, by his mother, who he later killed, with a chair, to the face! I'd be fine with a darker Tick as long as it's to the point of parody.

A superhero comedy show poking fun at grim dark, "grounded" superhero shows and movies would be great. There's potential there.

I imagine they mean "darker" and more "grounded" like the original run of the comic, which was still hilarious and ridiculous.

After this last season of Daredevil, it seems like the perfect time to adapt "Night of a Million Zillion Ninjas."

I didn't skip around, but man was it a struggle. The relationship drama somehow managed to be worse than on the Flash and I'm not sure how that's possible. Also the end to that final fight was laughably terrible.

I'm sure the answer will be super satisfying when they totally address it next season. Wasn't the explanation of what a Black Sky is super great? That didn't deflate the weight of the mystery one bit.

The kid at least figured into the plot of that episode, killing him vs. not killing him provoked Matt's confrontation with Stick and furthered the overall seasonal theme of how far he was willing to go in his pursuit of vigilante justice. The hole was just... a big hole in the ground inside a warehouse, and then oh crap zombie ninjas!

Rhyno posted:Wait, did they state this in the episode? They said something about how Fisk was buying up the properties, not for himself, but for the Hand. Then they wanted to know what the Hand wanted with the land, which lead them to the hole I guess? That bit is a bit fuzzy for me.

Rhyno posted:Wait, did they state this in the episode? Not explicitly, but in the first season episodes Nobu/The Hand really want that particular block which includes the tenement the old lady died in. When Fisk tries to steer him towards another block in Hell's Kitchen, Nobu says no way and that they absolutely must have that specific block.

Right, it's ultimately just another breadcrumb on the trail to the Hand, which is even worse when it's the basis of an episode cliffhanger and proves to be ultimately of minimal importance either plotwise or thematically.

I thought they did explain the hole? Wasn't there a whole bit about how they used the old railroads further below ground to enter the city without anyone noticing? I figured it was just that.
