I will never get tired of Rip Hunter's Stupid Team of Idiots because they're completely loving up whatever time periods they're in and it's written that way on purpose.  Also, Snart, Time Lesbian, and Syndey Palmer's Brother is just the best team.This episode got dangerously close to bringing back Carter, though. Pull up, show. Don't follow Arrow into the canyon pull up PULL UP

Professor Wayne posted:I think the best episode would be for the team to accidentally go to a time so far in the future, all of humanity is dead except Savage. Savage is super excited for company and invites the group to a lavish dinner. So basically just like that Justice League episode. For the rest of the series, no one is really into trying to kill Savage, since he once cooked them a decadent paella. Turns out Savage created the Time Masters to stop himself after this very thing happened and Rip hosed up his perfect plans.

The year is 2016. Due to a malfunction on the Owl Clock, the team is thrown into an alternate dimension. Snart and Mick watch Arrow season 4 and scheme to kill the writer. That writer turns out to be Vandal Savage, who gets away in a handcrank car from the 1900s. Kendra and Ray visit a Starbucks and spill their coffee.

I love how even Rip is acknowledging at this point how much of a fuckup they all are. The Time Masters are right, they're the single greatest threat that Hypertime has ever known.

It's 1065, and England is on the verge of the Battle of Hastings. The crew of the SS Minute Minnow discover Joan of Arc will somehow be at the battle and decide they must fix history for once. Joan of Arc turns out to be none other than Vandal Savage. In a hilarious bit of dialogue, Jax assumes the Norman Invasion was just one man named Norman. Kendra and Rip get into a fight with a horse and lose.

enraged_camel posted:It was actually remarkable how easily they defeated them, considering even Mick suggested running away at the end of the previous episode when they asked him what they should do. They had Jonah Hex with a Future Revolver and their calculations didn't include that, rendering them meaningless. In a wacky twist of fate, Sarah makes out with herself. She goes on to say it was alright at best.

Time travel is dumb and we need to accept that. By extension time travelers are dumb, as evidenced by Mick being the most responsible and educated one of the group. Once you can get over that hump, this show becomes a whole lot of fun.

Hatrocious posted:The only two female main characters gossip about getting engaged to a man, then spend the very next scene cooing over a baby. Has this show actually managed to pass the Bechdel test at any point? Pretty sure Sarah and 1950s nurse had a conversation entirely based on wanting to bang each other without coming right out and saying it. Does that count?

Hatrocious posted:Fair enough. Even so, Hawkgirl is really being put to waste here The biggest issue is that the DCAU did Hawkgirl probably the best out of anything ever, and as a result, anything less than that is going to be a real disappointment. (though it's not like the show's doing anything for non-comic fans either) As a side note, DCAU made Hawkgirl rule by basically putting Carter in Savage's current role, spending a grand total of one episode on him before moving on and never mentioning him again, and going with her alien soldier origin. So basically the exact opposite of everything the show is doing.

raditts posted:No, he'll ~*~regain his memories~*~ just in time to loving die again, then she'll kill Savage. 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.

We're gonna have to agree to disagree on that because watching him clown on the team by having three backup plans and grinning WE'RE A LOT A-LIKE YOU AND IIII is pretty endearing to me Opinions on the internet

Fat Shat Sings posted:His speech to Rip about seeing dozens of his children die in his arms to old age over 4,000 years made some sense. He has seen every major civilization fall and has a perspective nobody else does. That was oddly humanizing for Savage. Everyone talks about how he's an unfeeling psychopath but that's completely at odds with that moment. I mean more than likely it's hideous writing but I'd be very interested of they run with "Savage is ruthless and callous but actually thinks he's doing the right thing for all of history." On the other hand he paled around with Stalin and murdered a dude so his buddies could drink his blood so going with the bad writing theory E: on the other other hand it was Carter so that may actually make him the biggest hero in history

FactsAreUseless posted:I'm enjoying it but it sucks. The CW shows really are like pro wrestling. The lows are frequent and the highs are loving incredible. Also the writers know exactly how to make Hawkgirl a badass because she had that 5 minutes of being herself, complete with zappy mace and HRRRRGGGGGH rage noises whenever she'd swing it. So if they know what the comics fans want and are actively avoiding it then that's malpractice imo

But the future refused to change  Also out of all the amazing stuff that happened, Kendra's near-deranged laughter at Savage when his entire plan goes tits-up was probably the best.  Also also, I like how they're literally keeping Carter offscreen as much as they can. Last time he was brainwashed, then knocked out, then he was put in stasis. I really hope the final episode has them just going "REMEMBER WHEN CARTER DID THAT THING DURING OUR FIGHT" and everyone nods sagely and he never appears on any television media ever again.

It was just another wet fart of an episode the only highlight being that Savage was killed so he doesn't have to be around anymore. Dude, you're reaching enraged_camel levels of self-hatred for watching this show. Maybe you should take a break from it for your own sanity's sake, you're already mod of TVIV and that can't be a healthy place to start from

Pretty rad huh" He's just such a smug amoral dick.
