Why did they make giant CGI ray fight giant CGI ultraman, why not just shoot him on a green screen????

Things I'm okay with: 1) Carter dying again 2) Kendra using her Nth Metal mace on Savage some more while making HRRRRRRGH Hawkgirl noises 3) Ray Palmer, Literal Giant Dork 4) Carter dying again I was actually okay with the plot twist, it makes things interesting. Also Carter is basically a creepy villain anyway so we might as well make him one for reals e: Plus c'mon, you knew Time was going to poo poo all over Ray's head. That's what he does, it's his thing, he gets his head hilariously shat upon.

Okay yeah that ending was frustrating, but otherwise I thought the episode was pretty good! I hope this version of Carter ends up just being a giant loving douchebag...or, well, an even bigger douchebag than he was. Like, Katar Hol tier assholeness.

Why wouldn't Cassandra take over the army with Savage gone? The cast of this show is great. They just need to remove the hawk people and the writers for next season.

I have pretty low expectations of comic book shows. I intentionally set the bar low, suspend my disbelief, turn off my critical thinking. But this poo poo is getting dire. Hawkgirl refusing to kill Savage is one of the most stupid, contrived plot points I've ever seen on TV. I could probably buy it if Savage was able to erase Hawkman permanently but he wasn't even threatening his life, just his memories. They've done a great job reinforcing how stupid Hawkgirl is and the fact that her relationship with Hawkman is a huge liability likely to get them all killed. At this point Rip should probably just write off the current Hawkgirl and go find a more useful incarnation.

She can change things way easier as the world leader than as a refugee camp person. One aspect I really enjoy about the show is that the characters constantly bring up the fact they keep loving up, so at least the writers are aware. They just don't care enough to plot it differently.

Leviathan kind of reminds me of an Atomic Skull / Brainiac mashup. I get the feeling the only reason Ray could beat Leviathan was because Savage was stupid enough to assume he'd never have to fight another giant. It felt like it was designed to spread fear and terror because of its size and just stomp the poo poo out of normal sized people and weapons/vehicles, but ultimately it was not sturdy enough to put up much of a fight against a similar sized enemy. TBQH, it looked like a big glass clock with Cyalume nightsticks inside, when Ray smashed its head it should have fallen with a giant blinking "12:00" flashing on its chest. The CGI was pretty fake looking but it did the job. It was kind of interesting how they were literally paying homage to Pacific Rim by doing some direct copies of the cinematography from the movie (the under crotch shots and the horizontally stationary-but-still-moving-right-at-you shots of Leviathan closing in,) and having Jax provide the same kind of two-man dynamic that helped drive the Jaegers.

The giant robot was super dumb though. Since the rebels didn't know about it it clearly wasn't being used for intimidation, it was super slow, it couldn't really be effectively used for either mass destruction or precision, and it looked really dumb. There is no good reason for it to exist.

"Any object that was in the room when you died can be used to kill Savage." "So why don't we travel back there and stuff them all in a sack?" "Ummmm" "Rip? Rip, where are you going? Rip?"

Aside from Kendra Kendra-ing up the ending, this episode was exactly what I wanted out of this show. A whole load of ridiculous comic book poo poo happening and everyone chewing the scenery as best as they could.

to hell with you guys ray as a giant robot stomper = win snart, sara and mick showing how it's done = win hell even jax wasn't as irritating as normally as he was ray's copilot and gave the friendship speech well. :p If the premise wasn't so bloody flawed, this would be one of the best shows ever. (and why are these guys feeling more like heroes then arrow or @#$@#$ flash?)

They're really petty and only concern themselves with time-travel related atrocities? Which should mean that The Flash and all of his villains should have been erased 500 times over by now but eeeeeeeeeeh

For a full minute, Kendra was badass and swinging her mace like she shoulda been all season long. Then Carter had to gently caress everything up. Like he always does.

Yeah, Carter ruined things again, but who cares? The Atom fought a giant robot on TV. I shouldn't be that impressed after having The Flash fighting a Gorilla for the first time last year, and yet here I am.
