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.

Phenotype posted:Are...are you guys just not playing Hearthstone or something when they do the Carter flashbacks or whatever? You don't have to pay attention when they do that, you just have to understand that they need to chillax and recuperate, so they're going to the wild wild west to have some cool gun battles with old-timey gunslingers. It sounds like you're defending the show, but 'just skip parts' and 'of course it's predictable' don't really seem like great arguments. It would have been so easy to write Savage's escape in a way that made sense: Carter makes googly eyes at Kendra, she releases him, he releases Savage. We know that Carter is Kendra's greatest weakness so at least it would have been consistent and plausible. Moreso than what we got anyway. Edit: Unless the writers actually want Savage to be the most sympathetic character, they are seriously loving this up. ubachung fucked around with this message at 23:12 on May 6, 2016 |

Longbaugh01 posted:The show is stupid fun. Ascribing or expecting any value to it higher than that is a mistake. I don't think anyone is expecting more than this. The problem is 'stupid fun' works best when the characters are the fun part and the situations they encounter are stupid or absurd. We're getting the exact opposite of this.

Was it my imagination or did Mick's accent slip a bit during his intro?
