The DC TV 'Arrowverse' thread

[Beefmeister]

One of the biggest issues I have with Legends is how utterly appalling an actor Jax is.

Any of his ‘emotion’ scenes set around Stein’s exit have just been painful to watch.

Seen the latest one ? He was a bit better ? Enjoyed the flash finale was unexpected ,

Yep, still awful - he bit where he's saying goodbye to Young Stein, his emotion face consists of biting his lip and frowning, just dreadful

Assuming that Ep9 is the mid-season finale for these then? Back in January? Flash one was very good.

Will looks like you will not have to worryJax has left the show. No more Firestorm. Loved the handling of Stein's demise with his younger self basically finishing the story. Now we have Citizen Cold and John Constantine on board. Still if you are facing a Demon who else would you want?
As for this weeks Flash. Not bad but surely He could have cleaned that crime scene??

Jax hasn't left for good though, he's back later in the series.

I thought the same about Flash - he could've had the whole lot cleaned, body dumped outside or hidden and totally relaxed by the fire before they'd even come through the door. Though it's not the first time they've 'tweaked' how fast he is to suit the storyline...

I’m enjoying Flash and Legends at the moment (the latter certainly helped by the two lead blondes getting all lezzy), Arrow really is on it’s last legs though. In fact, it’s last legs were shot out and burned, replaced with cybernetic legs and now those are on the verge of collapse.

Still looking forward to the crossover.

Legends Of Tomorrow is a definite for me. It goes places other Superhero shows daren't. The Flasg is coming back and Arrow still has a story to tell. The Flash Forwards are something new. Have to wait and see on those.

Just downloaded the Flash and Arrow from the Elseworlds crossover. Will watch those tonight, then d/l Supergirl tomorrow to finish it off! Have Legends to watch too.

The Elseworlds ones are good.

I must say, I think a little bit of wee came out when the Smallville theme tune played

The Elseworlds ones actually gave an idea that they know and appreciate the material in all its forms.

The next bit (as trailed at the end of Part 3) might be good too, at least it's a proper major story if done properly.

The LoT quick dismissal of not being in the crossover was quite well done too.

Just watched that bit, did make me giggle.

That episode is brilliant fun though, especially the Puppets of Tomorrow

Anyone watching the latest series?

I've not bothered yet, will wait until they're all finished, then torrent the whole damn lot.

Looking forward to the crossover event, apparently there will be multiple Supermen including Brandon Routh and Tom Welling from Smallville.

Must admit the fanboy in me in squeaking a bit at that! Would be ace to have Dean Cain in there as well

Looks like Batwoman will probably get binned as the main lead, Ruby Rose, just quit

Likely because they wouldn't up her pay. She already absolutely rinsed them for millions of dollars after a stunt went wrong and nearly paralysed her, then rumour has it she went into the negotiations asking double her S1 salary, believing she was untouchable given S2 had already been renewed.

I guess it was a no then...

Probably. I was on IMDb last night and looked at this, 3.5 is a terrible score. amongst the acting and writing, it was also slammed for its blatant, in your face, box ticking wokeness.

S2 has already been ordered, surprisingly. And will continue, they're recasting the lead.

This reminds me, I've just seen a trailer for Superman & Lois, a spin off featuring the Superman that was in Supergirl and the later crossover event.

As someone who LOVED Smallville and the original Lois & Clark with Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher, I'm definitely going to watch this. Hell I'll watch any Supes content on telly no matter how bad it is!
