Eh the only bad part about the Arrow episode was it had nothing to do with the crossover, at least not until the last few minutes. You could easily rewrite the situation that caused the dream world and nothing would change. The episode itself was solid otherwise.

Honestly I hope Flash and Legends of Tomorrow crossover. It makes the most sense, and LOT will be moving to Tuesdays at 9pm starting after the break so they could easily do a one night two-hour special.

My bet: Betrayer: H.R. (it's interesting to note Savitar referred to him as "fake Wells" so something is up there.) Fall: Cisco or Caitlin ("fall" doesn't necessarily mean death, it could be a fall from grace) Fate worse than death: Barry DoctorWhat posted:If they bring Laurel back I'll watch, my guy, but I'm sick of lady-type characters getting killed for shock value and I'm SUPER DUPER ULTRA SICK of people HOPING for love interests they find "annoying" to get killed off.

I think Berlanti said they have no plans for new shows right now, since keeping up with four must already be strenuous. Plus because of contracts and other legal matters, getting Constantine would be very difficult since his Arrow appearance was stipulated as a one-time only thing at the time. Really no point to having a JLD show if you can't get him on board. As for Gypsy, they will likely just not give her a superhero name to use and have her go by name alone. Supposedly she's a cop from Earth-19 and will probably have some kind of plot involved with Harry.

Oh, my bad. They have the same abbreviations and "JLD" is usually used for the Dark one. ...And plus a Detroit show is even less likely to be made than a Dark one, sadly.

I guess I just don't see them making a second ensemble show any time soon if it involves taking current characters away from their shows. It has the side effect of taking away some great supporting characters from the shows they originated from. I can't for a moment imagine a Flash show without Cisco, or Supergirl without MM, because those two are so integral to the shows they come from. Hence why JL Dark is a bit more likely to me, since they would have to introduce a whole new slew of characters. The only one on the current shows who would qualify is Ragman, who is already competing with a bunch of newbies on Arrow anyways. But again, Berlanti already said he doesn't want to make anymore new shows unless one of them ends, so it's a moot point. lotus circle fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Dec 12, 2016 |

Honestly I'm annoyed cause it seemed at first we'd finally get a Caitlin plot that didn't involve romance. But the second Julian stopped being an evil dick he became available so the writers are like "gently caress it" because they're incapable of writing a woman who isn't in a relationship with some dude.

Honestly I enjoyed the episode, but I don't think it was that strong. They pretty obviously blew their budget for this two-parter all on the first episode, and then tried to figure out a way to budget the second half. The trailers and EPs promised this big epic fight against a gorilla army, but Barry and co. fought like five of them for a minute before Solovar comes in, beats Grodd, and the gorillas just immediately follow him again for a quick tidy ending. And that was a great goofy fight to watch, but the build-up to the big army fight falls flat upon delivery. Even Barry's whole moral dilemma of whether or not he should kill Grodd is taken completely out of his hands, and instead he just convinces Solovar not to do it by promising to keep Grodd away from Earth-2. I'm also not really digging Gypsy, whose entire personality is just "I'm a badass." There's potential, but the writers just want her to be generic action girl for Cisco to get the hots for. Cisco could have easily opened up the breach for Solovar alone, so why was she even there after a whole scene of him convincing her to help? She just ends up being another example of CW's writers being incapable of writing women with more than one or two personality traits. Oh and they have to be either ready to hookup, or already with someone. Harry was especially way more dickish than usual, when you step back and realize he was trying to emotionally manipulate Wally into leaving Jesse by faking a terminal illness. poo poo I feel like they tidied up Jesse's anger at him way too quickly. This isn't a usual "dad you're being overprotective" moment, and it's even extra dickish when you remember Wally's mother died of a terminal illness. The first episode had its flaws, but I think it was a much stronger showing because it just focused on Story A (E2 in Gorilla City) and Story B (Wally and Jesse). This episode was all over the place in comparison and didn't really deliver on what the trailers promised. It was 85% CW dramatics and then 15% of actual action, and that's if you include Barry's high-speed game of decoder.

Knormal posted:I was kind of under the impression that post-Flashpoint reboot Flash was supposed to have been less murdery in this timeline. I don't think he's killed anyone this season, and they don't have their inhumane solitary confinement meta prison anymore. I guess they never officially established that, but that's why I figured everyone was all "mustn't kill." -Caitlin has powers now -Cisco's brother died in a DUI and Barry (of this current timeline, not the one we know) refused to go back in time and save him. -Julian has been working with Barry on CSI for roughly a year or so, and hated his guts. -Joe didn't tell Iris about her mother being alive and dying, and she only learned about it because Wally suddenly appeared. Because of this Iris has refused to communicate with him one-on-one for many months. -There is a speed lab where Barry trains to be a better speedster. No word when this was made, but it's not recent. Additionally neither Harry nor Jesse were affected by the Flashpoint changes because they were on E2, and are just as surprised to learn all this as Barry.

Knormal posted:I think there was some line in one of the early episodes this season that metas are confined in some prison now (Blackgate? Iron Heights? one of the standard DC names), so presumably they're not in the basement anymore. Hell, maybe they even actually got a trial! But yeah I guess it's never been clearly defined if that was just from some point on, or if they transferred them all there, or what.

Yeah I'm really disappointed with how they're writing Iris this season. Season 1 Iris was bogged down by a lot of stupid poo poo revolving around her being constantly in the dark to Barry's identity, but at least she had a life outside of Barry or Eddie. She was a blogger who managed to get a job at the local news, and was one of the first people to believe in Flash as a hero. Season 2 was arguably the best season for her. No longer bogged down by the identity poo poo, Iris was allowed to grow into a kickass reporter. She even had her own storyline for the first nine episodes, where she reconnects with her mother and tracks down Wally. We saw her a lot at work, she was friends with Linda, had a feud with her new boss (and then a weird half-second romance thing) and still managed to contribute to Team Flash. Season 3 though she's just been Barry's love interest and has pretty much had all her scenes either with him or with Joe and Wally. They have cute scenes together that are sweet, but what else does she do? And the Savitar plot has effectively damsel'd her the entire season, leaving her life in the hands of Barry and/or Wally. She shows concern for her life being in danger, and has melodramatics discussions in the hallway/apartment with Barry and that's about all she's done in 16 episodes. Hell even WestAllen shippers don't seem very happy about these two being together because of the ridiculous melodrama.

Gotta say wasn't a big fan of this episode. For a hyped "musical" I think there were only a total of 4 songs. And I would have liked the Barry-Iris serenade at the end more if it wasn't for the two episodes of melodrama that preceded it.
