Medullah posted:Dethlok was always kind of an anti-hero, right? Or am I thinking of Death's Head... Deathlock is an anti-hero. I assume he will be programed to go against them, but he will fight it and join them. There is also a chance he will kill a member before he turns.

Hakkesshu posted:I guess Syfy wants is going to make a show based on DMZ. I've never read that, is it good? It could be made into a really good show, but if its going to change a lot if its going to be on Syfy. I do not think that any channel wants to make a show where the Tea Party starts a civil war and New York becomes a DMZ.

Gaz-L posted:Essen? That's thinking REALLY long term, especially if she's starting out outranking Jim. I'd have figured you hold that arc off until you get renewed and introduce her as his new partner. I mean, the character's most well known for an adultery storyline and being the second wife as a result of that, and you're starting out with him just engaged to the first one? She did first appear in Year One.

muscles like this? posted:An annoying thing about the show was how they had multiple times where Sylar got redeemed but every single time they just turned him evil again. That was due to him being the breakout star of the show, and they refused to get rid of him. They should have killed him off since he is a serial killer.

Medullah posted:Yeah, the original Sylar redemption arc was good and made sense. I would have rather they kept him as an anti-hero. Kept his motivation intact - he kills to steal powers, but have him only going after villains. That was another huge problem with heroes, they were all overpowered as gently caress. If they kept powers sort of small with huge threats being overpowered and therefore they all had to team up to stop them. However, nope they make most of the main characters stupidly powerful. I mean Peter and Sylar were as powerful or more powerful as Silver Age Superman. poo poo now I wish Peter was able to shoot out tiny Peters of his hands to help him.

muscles like this? posted:That was all a symptom of the fact that the characters weren't supposed to stick around and that they were going to change up the cast every season. Yeah, but midseason they should have known that it was not going to happen, and find a way to get the powers to a more managable level.

ToastyPotato posted:I still maintain that the worst part of season 2 was the South American siblings. That whole subplot was a huge waste of time. The chick with the bleeding eyes that was never mentioned again after season 2? Season 2 still had the glorious moment where Peter left his irish girlfriend in the plague hellhole and never went back. So who knows what happened to her since ??

Barry Convex posted:IIRC, he had a quasi-coming out scene that actually did air on the show, where he talked about being "different" or something without using the words. NBC at the time was running text recaps of every episode on their website, and the description of the scene originally read something like "Zack tells Claire that he's gay." I thought it was some bullshit that his manager told him playing a gay character would ruin his chances for future roles?

Madkal posted:It might be a good show by any other name but it seems to miss the point by a wide margin. I remember reading it, and all I can remember is the Allred art. The series did have some good ideas, but they were not able to expand on them as it ended before it could flesh them out. The last trade reads like I was missing a couple of storylines as it had characters in places that did not follow from the last volume. For all you know some of the characters could still be there, but those characteristics will be revealed later.

So, Cain will be like a biblical reference and a gently caress you to Bob Kane for stealing people's legacies at the same time. You have to make this poo poo like barely subtle, but still attempt at being subtle. That's the CW way. I was just going off of what he had as Martha Wayne's madien name,

Barry Convex posted:It explains a lot, though by no means all, of the series' problems to date, especially in the first half of the season - not just the absence of HYDRA, but also its odd lack of interest in the broader SHIELD organization, whether its morality (remember those earlier episodes where Skye expresses concern only to be convinced of their righteousness by the end?), its structure and history (the SHIELD Academy episode being the sole exception of note), or Team Coulson's relationship to it (why exactly are they so important that they get their own plane and a significant degree of autonomy)? I really hope rest of the reason is them dealing with the fact one or two of them work for hydra and figuring out what next. They really should have started the show after the movie or have the first have you get to know the characters and second half blow it up
