Ohh poo poo, thanks. I plan to show this episode to my boyfriend because he's a huge lover of Roman history and Caesar. I wonder if he'll notice this.

Xarn posted:I just wanna say that since Season 2, this is the best show. For me, the shift from "This is so stupid..." to "This is so stupid!" happened when Jonah Hex shows up justifiably angry at Rip, Stein cures H. G. Wells' tuberculosis, and the Legends kidnap their younger selves from the timeline to prevent the The Pilgrim from killing them. About two thirds of the way through the first season.

Does anyone have a screen cap of the Roman America map? That's kind of a neat idea. Also I forgot how ripped Caity Lotz is. Can great cheese on those abs!

Fun fact, the pirate crucifying thing was totally a real story. Although one slight difference is that they originally were going to ransom him off for a lesser amount but he convinced them to up it.

Yeah, when he was younger his opponents gave him the nickname "Queen Caesar" because he supposedly had a relationship with a foreign king when he was serving in that country.

I got excited that they brought another Spartacus alum onto a DC show, we need Weather Wizard to show up for some reason to fight Caesar in a future episode

The Arrowverse still needs Gannnicus and Doctore.

I'm not 100% sure but I think Amaya's powers were powers her sister had on the Vixen web series. Maybe. All I can really remember from that was that Vixen's totem is just one of a set and when they're all together and on their native land they're way more powerful as they were intended to protect it.

Caity Lotz is what happens when you hire actors who can actually enact a fight scene without having to quick cut every millisecond.
|
# ? Oct 16, 2017 06:13 |
That's pretty much what I was thinking throughout that episode. Her fighting scenes are great, well choreographed and not cut to a stuntwoman mid-movement. She also has the physique to pull it off in a believable way.

Legit martial artist as well, I believe. Does taekwondo, krav maga, muay Thai and more. Who are the best legit fighters in the Arrowverse cast? I think David Ramsey has a bunch of black belts in various things.

I'm almost curious if some casting director got Simon Merrells cast as Caesar as some kind of joke.

Of course less than ten minutes into the episode, Ray has made the aberration even worse.

Why did they keep Gary tied up?

You can tell this show has matured because, after two whole episodes, Captain Sara Lance has still not made out with the lady in charge of the time police. That's some unprecedented restraint.

I liked how Wally just took off his mask and showed his identity to a bunch of criminals just so he could talk to Boring Mcsteelman for two seconds.

So the circus strongman was wearing B'wana Beast's costume. I demand appearances by Ambush Bug, Brother Power the Geek, and Kid Eternity. (Yes, DC has a character named B'wana Beast.)

For anyone that doesn't realize the joke and/or missed it the first time it came up Victor Garber played the Titanic's designer, Thomas Andrews, in Titanic.

I feel like the show has gone slightly too self-aware. Yeah, the team is full of fuckups, but I liked it better when they're earnestly trying to not be fuckups without realizing it. It's still the bets CW DC show.

ShakeZula posted:I was so expecting it instead of the water break I appreciate the two of them wailing on each other to a standstill and just saying gently caress it, this isn't working lets just try to talk this out then go for round two if that doesn't work. It's just the right amount of action and dumb that works, and the comedic timing on it was pretty much perfect.
