This show is like some kind of weirdly amazingly bad 90s comic. You know how anime have the "1000 years old in a child's body" thing? Western media apparently loves the opposite between this and Twilight and Fallen Skies and the original Thundercats. Edit: I somehow forgot about Arisia. The MSJ fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Sep 20, 2016 |

One of the superpowered Indian Hill escapees had the ability to age someone at his touch and he was using it to kill people. So he was touching her for a couple of seconds before she fell in the pipe.

Also either one of the writers or producers explicitly stated the age up was so they can make her be seductive because that is a key part of her character.

It would have been so much easier to just have already be an adult. I have to ask, what purpose does young Ivy serve in the grand scheme of this show that I'm never going to watch?

From what I've read, I don't think Gotham cares about making key parts of characters. Since Alfred goes around punching little girls and Jim Gordon is apparently a bounty hunter?

Did they ever do anything with the joker? Or just keep bringing up a dozen fakes to trick viewers?

Young Ivy was Selina's friend and had abusive/neglectful parents. It seemed like they wanted to explore her home life and eventual turn to nature for comfort as part of her arc, but ditched it to punch up her age. Aphrodite posted:I don't watch the show but I read the Not Joker died, but they showed that he inspired a bunch of people to be like him. Then they showed his body as part of Hugo Strange's collection of yet to be created villains. Oh and they did the infectious laugh thing when they killed him (doubt it becomes a thing tho)

Someone needs to take away the shovel because this hole is already deep enough.quote:“One of the character’s biggest skills or powers is the power of seduction. In order for Ivy to exist and be a threat to most of our characters – Gordon, Bullock, Captain Barnes and all the villains – she needed to be older in order to exploit that power. No one felt comfortable having a 15-year-old seduce grown men. It was weird.

No one felt comfortable with a minor portraying a male sex fantasy so we magically aged her up for guilt free fap material.

Gotham already has an older sexy not-Catwoman so I don't know why they can't just do the same with Ivy.

Kingtheninja posted:Did they ever do anything with the joker? Or just keep bringing up a dozen fakes to trick viewers? The not Joker stuff was kind of weird because he first showed up in season 1 and he was just terrible. Then in season 2 they bring him back with the same actor and he was somehow so much better. Anyway, he was running around in a gang of escaped Arkham inmates doing some high profile crimes which culminated in a big public hostage situation where he gets televised. He then gets murdered on camera and later in the season they show he has inspired a bunch of weirdo outsiders to emulate him.

To hype up tonight's Agents of SHIELD, I've written about all of Ghost Rider's non-comics appearances. Especially how goddamn awesome it was that time he took down Galactus on the Fantastic Four cartoon.

I never really noticed before seeing it in live action, but Ghost Rider V's car really is just Mad Max's interceptor.

Kind of excited to see how Ghost Rider looks on the show. The promo pics they released to Yahoo look awful, but his car in the trailers actually looks great.
