When he blows it up there it is way cgi. Why do you think tv has a bigger time budget? Movie post production can take months, usually with TV you get two weeks max. That's the biggest difference.

zoux posted:It would be a huge stretch but also you don't go from party boy to ultimate badass in five years no matter what. What? Five years is plenty of time, especially considering the heavy training he did. Navy Seal training is 1.5 years from boot to team and another year before deployment. So basically Ollie had twice as long to train and in even harder conditions than a member of the most elite force in the world.* *ymmv

Aphrodite posted:It's not an RPG. It doesn't work off an experience system. He hasn't learned the way he fights now in the present from Slade or Shado. IRL we call the "RPG experience system", "practice"... and it's how people learn to do things and more you do it the better you become. quote:The point the guy was making was just that 5 years is an unrealistic, comic book amount of time to train to become a superhero, and Ollie doesn't even have 5 years worth. It's dumb to want to apply the same rules to the other characters as you ignore for Ollie. It's a comic book show. A couple episodes back some chemicals and lightning gave a guy super speed. People are going to train fast. And as pointed out by someone (oh it was me!) 5 years is plenty of time to learn how to be a "badass". If special force units can be trained in a couple years, 5 (or even 4) is long enough for someone in a survival situation to learn how to fight. How long do you think it takes for someone to be a competent fighter?

Never really cared for John Stewart in JLU, he's easily the least imaginative Green Lantern ever.

Xealot posted:It's definitely the second stupidest dramatic wrinkle of the season, forcing a roided-out teenager who's barely holding it together to step away from the one humanizing force in his life. That does piss me off every time it's brought up. Though I guess it's like Harvey getting upset at Gordon when the Joker/Gangsters kidnapped and tied him and Rachel up in Dark Knight.... just something to move the plot and make a villain.

I'm kind okay with Arrow staying more Dark Knight-ish realist. Let Flash take the more zany power stuff, with the occasional crossovers. Arrow just gets out powered too easily that they have to rely on "antidote arrows" or other contraptions to level the field. Distracts from the street level raw action.

imperialparadox posted:I feel like that's a mistake, especially when undoubtedly the TV versions will turn out to be the best versions. Seriously, it's like DC is saying "hey, these TV shows are doing well and are awesome, so let's make some movies but strip out the actors and stories that made the TV versions cool." The Suicide Squad animated film was pretty great. It's success is probably why the live action film was green lit.

I thought the general feeling was that Laurel the actress was fine, but Laurel the character wasn't very well fleshed out and kinda boring (unless someone breaks into her home and she goes all hobo-with-a-shotgun on them!). She's really there only to move a slow moving plot from point A to point B.
